iamkeyu's Original CAWs: The Reboot


KEYU

Recommended Posts

Been gone for a good while and my last thread got archived lol

Got back the itch to create again after watching the Rumble, first time watching wrestling really since 2020

VjQT03S.pngrq1rvDU.jpgJNVrCdA.jpg

Name: Keyu
Overall: 86
Finisher:  Ether(Kamigoye)
Information: Cocky, foul mouthed heavyweight brawler/striker. Wears down opponents with hard strikes and cheap shots before dropping them on their heads or going for a knockout blow.  Chimera was originally a faction with a bunch of my other CAWs and of my friends CAWs of hybrid athletes (strength, speed, technique) but a lot of them also fell out of love with wrestling so now being retconned to being his nickname/part of his gimmick, we'll see in 2K23. Inspired by Stone Cold, KENTA, Kawada, Shibata, Muay Thai/Bokator
RECENTLY RE-UPLOADED WITH FACE TEXTURE.

Name: Brennan Blade
Overall: 80
Finisher: Blade Buster (Air Raid Crash)
Information: Baron Blade's nephew who's found a lot of success through his uncle's connections and through his own talent in equal measure. Athletic high flying heel. Proficient with superkicks and moonsaults, moveset is very PWG/Indie inspired

Name: "The Game Changer" Caleb Rivera
Overall: 80
Finisher: Game Changer (Revolution Knee)
Information: Young talent with a lot of promise but lacking in actual match and life experience. After being turned on by his tag partner and manager he's currently finding more of his killer instinct as "The Game Changer". Similar PWG inspired style like with Brennan Blade. 

 

AHpHTd4.pngName: "Chosen One" Chris Hawthorne
Overall: 80
Finisher: (Name Pending)Fireman's Carry Side Slam
Information: Heir to a prestigious wrestling family. Wrestling style is more of a throwback/traditional North American style wrestler. Standard suplexes, body slams, irish whip back body drops, etc.

Name: Cuerno De Chivo
Overall: 82
Finisher: Cuerno Driver (Pump Handle Death Valley Driver), Sig: Cuerno Grande (Running flying headbutt/Torpedo Moscow)
Information: Super heavyweight luchador. Originally meant to be shorter but no body morphing so I couldn't make him as wide as I wanted too and I wanted MASS lmao. Funny enough not really inspired by King Cuerno but moreso by Mil Muertes and Black Taurus.

Name: Kid Calavera

Name: "No Mercy" Zane Mercer

Name: FRANCO
Overall: 70
Finisher: The Comedown (Dancing Leg Drop)
Information: "From the nearest night club" My low card guy I like to make for fun. I really enjoy his entrance, the movement goes well with the Flamboyant theme song they've had in the game for forever. Wins and losses don't matter to him, he's gonna party hard regardless

I might continue making more CAWS that I made in the past but my game crashes A LOT, generally when dealing with community creations. It's the only game on my PS5 that's ever crashed.
All these CAWs should be uploaded with the tag: iamkeyu
Trying something new in trying to add action shots with the pics

Welcome back. I saw your old thread was archived earlier in the week. I was like dammit. Wanted to check on and make sure you wre coming back for 2k23. We've had you & Caleb Rivera on our roster for a while now on my WWA brand.

And this my first time seeing Kid Calavera, but holy shit he looks good.

Had Caleb Rivera on my shows before I got all of my guys created.  He was a constant presence in the U.S. Title rankings.

Great stuff that gives me ideas from time to time on how to get better with my own creations.

Appreciate it y'all! I actually really started really enjoying the 2K23 gameplay recently but I always have the most fun and spend the most time in the creation aspects of the game

 

A few projects I'm working on

JxjMi0H.png

Name: "Lightning" Liam West
Overall: 80
Finisher:  Lightning Cutter (TKO) [I know about Kakashi, he was my favorite character lol]
Information: Top indie prospect type character. Younger dude with lots of untapped potential. Originally started him off as Buzz, and then morphed him more into his own thing, forgot to take a picture but I have a more simple BCW attire for him. Planning on making him tag partners as The Storm Riders with one of my old CAWs I haven't recreated yet in 2K22, Casey Jakobs(who's my version of Jacob Cass)

Name: "Jackal" Jonah Barnett
Overall: 84
Finisher:  Jackal's Maw (Cobra Clutch Crossface)
Information: Cowboy wrestler mixed with heavyweight Benoit/Dynamite Kid type moveset. 
Quick try at a face texture on FaceApp, didn't spend too much time on it, need to import it to my computer to fix the color and blend the forehead in better.

Stixx and Stonez. They were originally just supposed to be a jobber tag team I was making for fun based off of Bulk and Skull from Power Rangers but I started having fun making them. Still a huge WIP though. Really happy with what happened to Stixx's hair, it was originally half dyed like Stonez but in the opposite direction but it glitched when I was trying to import a jacket and I'm really happy with how it turned out lol

Had an idea for another promotion yesterday and had the itch to make some logos. Ring of Fire Wrestling. Not planning on making any championships, I just like making random promotions lmao. I probably need to add an outline or something to get rid of some of the random jaggies in my logos. Tried using various anti-aliasing plug-ins in paint.NET but it always looks weird.

Messing around with logos and stuff. First attempt at a female face texture. I think for 2K23 I'm turning Chimera back into a faction type thing like I had in 2K19 rather than just a Keyu thing. Less a traditional faction but more akin to people in the same training camp or record label and I'll have members spread around in various promotions. Hopefully they bring LAW and BCW back, I loved those venues in 2K22

Went a little bit overboard with the gradients and color scheme lol

Name: Alyx Avery
Overall: 81
Finisher: Brainbuster, Diving Foot Stomp
Information: She's similar to my other CAWs. Indie prospect with a lot of promise. Mainly a "happy to be there" wrestler, joining Chimera has helped her find some of her killer instinct, and more success in the ring. Personality wise still super positive/cheery even after joining the mainly heel Chimera. I think having a pure babyface faction member annoying heel members with their optimism sounds hilarious. Kick(mainly dropkicks) aficionado, I really wanted to give her the new Corner vs Grounded opponent Basement Dropkick as a signature but that move is BUGGED.

Alyx has been uploaded to community creations, as usual you can find my CAWs under the tag iamkeyu. Changed the top because it looked a bit plain before.
Would have been done sooner but the moveset took me a while because a decent amount of moves I wanted to use seem to be bugged and consistently did weird things when playing actual matches. Still waiting for them to announce information I care about with 2K23, I might just stick with 2K22 for a while. Wait for a sale and for them to iron out any game breaking issues.

That hair on Stixx is awesome!
