Personally I think there is a wide variety of cosmetic accessories to choose from in the game already, as well as a decent variety of characters.

But it would be nice if there were more "character designs" such as facial hair for male characters or possibly different hair styles like Rae Higgins wig for the females, all depending on how tricky it will be change the player models to add facial hair, so it depends.

But yes there are some flaws if implemented such as beards or hair clipping through accessories, but without going too in depth, the system could simply be by equipping a bandana or mask, it could simply remove the beard, same for the wig/hair if implemented.

A character artwork for Ana by Twipwire, not much that could be added from this to the present game, but, it would be nice to see a saggy beanie exclusive to Ana or even the "Scully cap" for Ana and other characters, as well as Rae Higgins wig for Ana to give her a striking new look.

And I understand these designs are long overdue but I'm thinking about what if the characters we already have, were built on, design wise, apart from just cosmetics and outfits if that makes sense

Donovan Neal:

Another Character artwork, this time for Donovan, it shows Donovan with a beard, it would be a breath of fresh air imo, if they added a familiar if not the same skin for the, Head, face, category for Donovan alongside "Donovan", "Tat" and "Glare" within the default skins, or even it could be unlocked in an character event "play however matches as this specific character to unlock" or even add them to the vault crates cycle, like the face paints, labeled as "Donovan Beard" or "Donovan Facial hair"

Hayato Tanaka:

Another design, this time for Tanaka, which personally I'd love to see, where in this artwork he has the moustache and goatee, and again this would fit in with his default "Black hair" and "Blonde hair" (as well as any face paints) labeled as 'Tanaka Facial Hair' or "Tanaka ‘Goatee".

Once again, just ideas for more variety in character design apart from just the cosmetics and face paints that are already implemented.

But overall I hope you get the gist of what I'm trying to suggest, not all characters need to have these customisable features implemented/changed but some would be great, I would also love to hear more thoughts on what ways some other characters could be changed in such ways :)​​​

May I just say that I never saw those artworks and that I find Ana to be absolutely gorgeous? I mean, I like her face way more than IG. Which is quite the opposite for Donovan...He looks more south-east asian than afro-american.

Tanaka also looks vastly improved. He looks more badass and slightly thinner as well.

100% agree. However in the last Reddit AMA someone asked fif we will ever get more character-specific cosmetics, and the response was something along the lines of "no, because we loke to make cosmetics which can be available to all characters". I get that you mean customization rather than coametics, but the principle is the same.

It is a cool idea though. I personally would like to see Tom Banner with a Shield or large sheath on his back, or any other midieval kit on his person.
