Did anyone notice this? It looks like they changed Winx Club's 3D Looks. =S (For the 3rd Time)

Before (From Winx Club Magical Adventure Movie)
Bloom: http://i44.tinypic.com/2dqt6oz.jpg / http://i42.tinypic.com/25sygs3.jpg
Stella: http://i50.tinypic.com/1z2ge1k.jpg (Can't find her new pose)
Musa: http://i49.tinypic.com/ivilww.jpg
Aisha/Layla: http://i49.tinypic.com/rswh04.jpg (Can't find her new pose)

*I notice the name of Layla seems to be vanishing now. The Official Winx Club Site had renamed Layla as Aisha now due to the new wallpaper.*

Now (Maybe for Season 5 New CGI Animation Development?)

What does everyone think about the New Look? =S It looks like the same model as used in the Season 5 Promo Trailer.
I'm even curious about the 40 New Episodes? I'm not sure if it's both for Seasons 5 and 6 as 40 each or they are decreasing the episodes (hope not). Originally, it's suppose to be 26 Episodes each. At least for now, they are still in development.

Can't wait for JAKKS Pacific! xD

I don't like it. I really hope that they do not do the 5th season in CGI. I think it is cool to do the movies like that, but I just really like the 2d and think it's weird to change animation styles when the show has already had 4 successful seasons in 2d.

I feel like that is how season 5 will be though, since nick has from the start used the cgi believix characters as advertisement.

I think the new look, looks more realistic. Although I think they look a bit pale. However its going to take some time to get used to the new look. I think I prefer the old look but that

Posted by: Sen Feb 11 2012, 1:58 PM

Does anyone else think they kind of look like Barbie now? =s

Posted by: Abby Feb 11 2012, 4:10 PM

Yeah, they kind of do. I just like drawn animation way better in general I suppose.

Posted by: RenaEnchantix Feb 11 2012, 4:19 PM

I'm not really sure these are new 3D looks, I think they're just photo-shopped versions of the 2nd movie pictures. the hair is way more realistic than in previous pictures, and since hair is one of the toughest things to do in 3D i doubt that these are real. it's improbable that the new season has a higher budget than the last two movies. these were probably just photo-shopped to make the girls look prettier, though it kind of backfired in my opinion.

Posted by: Abby Feb 11 2012, 4:27 PM

Yeah, I don't see how or why they would make the next season in cgi, I always thought of it as a special thing for the movies since a movie is a bigger deal than a tv show. I think their eyes look kind of huge in these pictures.

Posted by: RenaEnchantix Feb 11 2012, 4:36 PM

well tv shows use cgi all the time, it's just never as good as movie cgi. just look at the kung fu panda show, or penguins of Madagascar. those are both in CGI, but not nearly as good animation as the films.

CGI is much cheaper to animate than 2D, since it takes a smaller production team, so that's probably why they're making the switch. the animation just won't be as good, since their smaller budget will be spread out across 40 half four episodes as opposed to a 90 minute long film.

Posted by: Abby Feb 11 2012, 8:15 PM

Oh I see. I just don't think they should do it when there has already been 4 seasons in 2d.

Posted by: Sen Feb 12 2012, 4:07 PM

These Winx "looks" are also used for the doll packages by Jakks -> http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7165/6854905595_c7300aaabe_b.jpg (the package on the left side, Winx Rock Band)

Posted by: Abby Feb 12 2012, 8:32 PM

That's why I think that the new seasons will be like this, since all the advertisement on nick is cgi look as well as on those boxes.

Posted by: dreamywinxgirl94 Feb 12 2012, 10:28 PM

I really like the 2D and the old look of the 3D than the new look of 3D. =S (Looks like some time to get use to....)

Yeah, I notice the dolls packages all have it. =S Could be meant this will be used as CGI Animation for Season 5...but they said the Series will be kept as 2D. I hope...=S Then Iginio Straffi said it will be in 3D....erm...

Someone mentioned that the underwater will be as CGI while the rest will be 2D....I don't know for sure....confusing...

To me...I hope the Winx aren't turning into Barbie...they kinda look alittle...is it me...or all the eyes looked the same size? Musa's eyes looked alittle big instead of narrow..=S

Posted by: Abby Feb 13 2012, 1:30 AM

I think that the cgi is a nice treat to have for the movies in order to have something different, but I don't think it should be used for the actual series.

Posted by: Sen Feb 28 2012, 3:55 PM

"New" 3D image:

Posted by: Abby Mar 4 2012, 4:15 AM

I feel like they have the same facial features.

Posted by: Vaughanh7 Mar 4 2012, 7:36 PM

I....like it >.< I didn't really like the idea of the new series being 3D, whether completely or partly. But I'm opening up to the idea, imagine the transformations, the effects, just everything about it! Omg, it'll be awesome!

Posted by: Abby Mar 5 2012, 1:29 AM

I think it will be cool if it's just certain transformations, I still like 2d the best though.

Could it be for Season 5 or 6? Or the Addition Episodes, or Specials? Happy for more Winx! xD

Posted by: Abby Mar 19 2012, 2:56 AM

I wonder how much earth stuff will be in season 5 (or 6) if vanessa is going to be in it?

Posted by: mightymarty2 Mar 19 2012, 9:40 AM

My guess would be season 5

Posted by: dreamywinxgirl94 Apr 3 2012, 2:18 AM

(I kept jumping in topics for Season 5, I'm just not sure where to post it. xD)

A New Image for Believix as 3D.
>.<" They mess up Flora's eyes. =/

Posted by: Abby Apr 3 2012, 4:04 AM

I think Stella looks really pretty though!

Posted by: mightymarty2 Apr 3 2012, 8:09 AM

Stella and Bloom are ok but I am think they are changing Flora way too much

Posted by: Kendall112 Apr 4 2012, 12:16 AM

I'm sorry but I'm just gonna say it but doesn't something on Stella look rather.....well.......Large.

Posted by: dreamywinxgirl94 Apr 4 2012, 1:00 AM

They are all pretty....but the facial expression...may take more time for me to get use to. =S

Hm, you are right Kendall. Stella looks kinda different than Flora's and Bloom's?

Posted by: Kendall112 Apr 4 2012, 1:13 AM

I guess it's still about right

Posted by: Abby Apr 4 2012, 2:32 AM

Could be the just the lighting in the cgi drawing.

Posted by: musa225 Apr 27 2013, 3:56 AM

not liking the cgi at all

Posted by: Abby Apr 28 2013, 12:03 AM

There are some aspects of it I like. For example I think Trit**** looks really awesome in it. But I do not like the sirenix hair at all.
