    I now have hope that the Ventress/Tano bounty hunting power team was a thing at one point, because those lightsabers are so modeled after Asajj's.

    OK, so now that Fulcrum has been revealed. That is one mystery down, it's time for Hera to tell Ezra what Tseebo told her.

    They are definitely angled. I agree that maybe they did have an adventure or two.

    Compare that to this:

    Its her markings that bother me. What I don't understand is how she had thick candy cane stripes in TCW that changed to thin zebra stripes in Rebels. I'd like to see an intermediate image.

    I'd be okay with changing it a bit but they took it way, way to far. It looks like an entirely different character now...not one that has aged.

    ....and is it just me or does she now sound younger than she did when we last saw her? Son of a biscuit the thing I was looking forward to most in this series is just a total let down IMHO. :_|

    Rebels Ashoka looks a bit jarring from TCW Ashoka but I can deal with it.

    I think everyone here is kind of nit picking. As with people when we are young and age, we grow into our features just as she has. I have no problems with the subtle changes showing an aged Woman instead of a child.

    I'm wondering if the characterization difference for Ahsoka doesn't stem from the cameras they use during the recording sessions for Rebels. I read that they use the cameras to capture facial expressions from the voice actors, and if you look at the voice actors you can see their likenesses in the crew of the Ghost. Did anyone happen to notice if it was definitely Ashley Eckstein who voiced Ahsoka?

    This made me wonder, so I thought back to the youngling arc and whaddya know-

    Even her markings here are pretty damn different from those she has during the series proper. It must just be a Togrutan thing, where their markings slightly change as they age. It's probably a gradual change; her markings are almost unchanged from the first half of TCW to the second, but years prior and years later they're a lot different, while still more or less conforming to a sort of pattern.

    I thought it was a bit jarring, but it also doesn't bother me as much as it does some of you. It's a bit weird looking at a person's skin rather than something tech-y, but this doesn't seem too different to the squat proportions of the stormtrooper faces or Vader's narrower-than-the-films helmet. It's all just the stylization they choose. And if you look at the actual structure people in Rebels vs TCW, it's all smooth lines vs hard edges. I think they just decided to carry that aesthetic through her markings.

    She looks different now-- it was jarring, but not as awful as you make it out to be. Her eyes aren't as enormous, they are more natural now, she looks more like an adult woman and not an anime character. But I see what you mean, especially I know you're close to the art and designed some of her for Rebels. Also to me they made her look like Ashley Eckstein, check it out:

    And here's where Ashley actually got MADE UP as Ahsoka!

    The style of Rebels is a lot different than that of TCW, hence why Ahsoka looks different. Plus it's been 15 years, and she was, what, 14 in TCW? she's pushing 30 now, and I'm pretty sure anyone around who's 30 doesn't bare a close resemblance to themselves in pubescency.

    I'm seriously squinting so I won't see these other posts. The episode is still not on the Watch Disney XD app. Is this usual? Or, if someone has found that it is up, can I get a link? I'm just continuing to hit refresh.

    Yep, that was cool to see more art and with her new sabers. Engelhast you should watch it they feature more shots of the concept art of Ahsoka, I'm cool with it now.

    And there is a big Season 2 Rebels concept art slideshow at the end with some great new music. It was really cool looking.
