The white glow behind the characters' heads looks noticeably different behind Tanya and Shinnok than it does the other characters. Tanya's is a very pronounced circle of light, wheras everyone else has a more gradual fade. Shinnok's starts pronounced like Tanyas, but then stops before it hits the edges and goes completely black. Which none of the others do.
Also, the borders around the middle portraits are all a flat grey, likely because they're just grey squares someone photoshopped into the middle portion. You'll notice the far right borders have lighting and texture to them that's completely absent on these.
Furthermore, as mentioned, Sub-Zero appears to have some white pixel noise around him, like someone cut him out poorly from another image. As does the word "Sub-Zero" in the lower left corner. Evidently this person can handle cutting up squares in photoshop, but is no good at clipping complex shapes.
Also, the select screen background has always been the dead forest, not saying that couldn't change, but it's conspicuous in this case.
Also, no Goro. (He's DLC, so this isn't conclusive proof, but seems suspicious to think they'd add him in the last build and then remove him in this one)
It does look like one photo of a single screen, which makes me think it's a still image, and the artist set his photoshopped select screen to full screen on his monitor/TV and then snapped a blurry picture to try and make it look more convincing.

Now, I'm sad.

Still hoping that the select screen could be expanded little. I doubt we're going to see many of our promised new characters or returnees from MK4 on.

Convincing. The Tanya model looked pretty good too but it was placed there in Photoshop. That's what it looks like to me anyway.

This one is his model from the final moments of MK9 gussied up in photoshop to look like one of the MKX select screen portraits.
This person did a better job of it than the person in the original post, but the model is easy to identify. You can pretty much lay it on top of the front view in this shot and it lines up perfectly...

I want to believe its real for some reason, because I think we'll get something similar to it in the end release, but since the Shinnok model is taken directly from MK9 it probably isn't.
That's fine.
I want them to make Shinnok look more like a threat. Like wtf is up with red hat thing? Its an evil ruler from Hell, give him a Knights Helmet or something like Havik's primary costume with that decoration around his head, just make him look like a threat!

I really hope this is real as well, but I too, something tells me it's fake as well.
Also, maybe it's just me, but that look more like Li Mei, rather than Tanya. I maybe wrong, but the quality of the pic that is this blurry, I can't really see that well. If it is Tanya, and if this is in fact real, then I can finally rest easy... relieved to know she is in, and be able to use my best kharacter ever and my no.1 favorite. Waited long enough since MKD if this in fact is real. Doubt it btw.

Reused model. it has definitely been updated from what I can see. The Portrait has the right eye larger than the left. Throws off the symmetry.
*Hoping it's real*

It can't be something.

UGH!!! I want her in the game so bad. She looks a little like Aisha Tyler when she was sporting bangs a little while back.

Is Tanya smiling in that pic and baring her teeth? Does anyone else do that? I'm pretty sure they all have gloomy expressions, kind of like passport photos. I just don't see it being real.

Really not seeing a smile here if anything she's turning her nose up at you.
So if this is proven as fake, I'd like to see a clearer picture of her because I really like how she looks minus the domino mask unless that's heavy black eyeshadow
