Yes, these images are indeed from the FreeStepDodge I found recently. As for Tina, I think that initially she was supposed to be dancing-type fighter and later it concept art to be used for La Mariposa. Bayman's prototype name was "Gatsby" and it even remains for Sound Test as GY. Raidou (at that time Hong Dee) was not supposed to be the last boss but an regular fighter practicing Taijiquan (Tai Chi), which concept art became more wild and villainous. And a funny title "Poligon Fighter" obvious pun on "Virtua Fighter" and "Street Fighter" that's for sure.

P.S: Don't you feel that Tecmo very overused Hayabusa's role in the Dead or Alive series? For the guest character this is too much, especially in the Dimensions, where he appeared even more than Kasumi, the main character. As you can see from the one of the images, instead there thought to be another shinobi - Kamui and seemingly appear to be an ally of Kasumi.
