- Confirm which build the early models last appear in

At this point, the game appears to have been in somewhat of a transitionary period. For one, only a handful of cutscene models are present at this time, and those that are often show drastic changes between their in-game counterparts.
Toni Cipriani
Case in point. Toni's final look was pretty much nailed down by now, but a handful of models were yet to be replaced, allowing us to see how he evolved over time.
player2
Toni in the Leone Suit, and the only model of Toni in this particular style. Its hard to say which one was first, this or CSTESTER.

toni_d1
An early version of the in-game model of the Chauffeur outfit. The main difference here is the hat, which appears to have been copied from the chauffeur pedestrian model.

toni_g1
An early version of the Avenging Angels outfit, with the main difference being the red beret. This change also applies to the cutscene model (which is not in this build, but would be added by the next) and the Avenging Angels pedestrians.

toni_k1
An early version of the in-game model of the Hero Garb outfit. Once again, based on the CSTESTER model. The design would be finalized not long after this build, as it is already fully implemented in the July build. A cutscene model of this early version, updated for Toni's final model, was left unused in the final game.

Vincenzo Cilli
- The in-game model of Vinnie was entirely different, with an almost cartoonish aesthetic.

- Meanwhile, the cutscene model was near final. Changes were made to the hairline and he was given more clean shaven look. The early texture also appeared a little less compressed, as seen around his tie.

 |
- The model itself has one slight difference when compared to the final, that is the right upper eyelid being a little droopy on the early model.
Donald Love
Another instance of cutscene and in-game models showing different designs, though less extreme. The cutscene model (cslove) appears to take more after Love's appearance in GTA III while the in-game model (love_01) leans more towards his younger version from Vice City.

Avery Carrington
- Avery Carrington has a completely different model, looking appropriately older, given the game takes place 12 years after his appearance in Vice City. The official artwork actually depicts this older model. The final game uses a copy of his model from that game.

Leon McAffrey
The early cutscene (csmac) and in-game (mcaffry) models of Leon McAffrey show two drastically different designs. Oddly, the cutscene model has a much blockier head, much like the models from GTA III, while the in-game model has a face texture not too dissimilar to the pedestrians. By late July, both models would be near finalized.

Oddly, the prototype model had a separate texture for his cigarette, which was later removed.

JD O'Toole went through some revisions as well, with his cutscene mode (cstool) sporting a unique design. The in-game model (tool_01) features a completely different face, head shape and thinner arms. This middle design showed up in some of the earliest public screenshots of the game.
