Title: wip- new battlesprite template
Post by: Zerlina on May 25, 2008, 08:09:43 PM: I dunno I always found the RTP one kinda hokey. It looked sorta like they're dancing whenever they're idle.

SO I'm working on a new template. I've done most of the sketches but this is the first one I've managed to make into a sprite. It's a male KO sprite (since it's the easiest to make)

the arms look weird. I like the sprite style though.

His torso's flat on to the camera so it looks like he's floating. To make that pose work you'd need to see more of the top of the legs rather than the side, and you wouldn't be able to see the neck at all. The head would be partially behind the chest, and the torso would get smaller the further up it goes.

Sorry >.>

Post by: Prpl_Mage on May 29, 2008, 06:18:04 AM: Yeah, that's amazing. I even think that it's probably the best human shape I've seen in a rpgm resource.

Really amazing. Altthough I think that something could perhaps be done with the eyes. It might just be me but I think they look a little odd.

Exellent either way, I'd love to see more of this.

Post by: Zerlina on May 29, 2008, 08:38:14 AM: Wow thanks!

Yeah, I wasn't digging the eyes. AoS wasn't digging them. So I just took them out. I dunno if it looks okay, or if I hsould try to do something. It's just that the freedom to actually make good looking eyes is difficult since it's so small. They either look weird or too cartoony. Here's a little more of her. I'm just doing the main poses right now and will animate them after. Tomorrow I will work on my men-folk.

Awesome sprites to be honest. They really are.

Post by: Red Fox on May 29, 2008, 01:22:33 PM: Looks awesome. But as Zero said the death pose looks little odd.

Which death pose? The first one I posted, or the one in the set?

Thanks! What's Lucas style?

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on May 29, 2008, 10:03:46 PM: Having no face.

Post by: ZeroKirbyX on May 30, 2008, 02:58:36 AM: Both, they just don't seem like death poses.

Post by: Fortet on May 30, 2008, 05:34:40 PM: Actually, the death pose is alright - the arms look awkward. I see that you're trying to give it depth in laying it down. It's just really hard with 2-D sprites :|

Also, the arms on all of them look a bit short. . . Maybe it's just me.

Overall, amazing :)

Post by: Moosetroop11 on May 30, 2008, 06:35:42 PM: The deviner looks amazing. Maybe you could try leaving the eyes in but changing the colour so that they're slightly darker skintone? I dunno.

Post by: Zerlina on May 31, 2008, 05:17:37 AM: Aw thanks guys!

Yeah...this 2d thing, not to mention being limited to 48 pixels is really giving me a hard time. But hopefully I'll come up with something good

I did try making the eyes just a little darker than the skin. Still looked creepy and evil... :(

Thanks though!

Here's another I've just started on
