Ive tweaked it for 3 different sizes, as My maps are playing out semi-3d, in 2-d traditional animation style art, so I need multiple perspectives of various things...Like this house.
Heres one of the sizes

I wont be able to show the screen whith npcs and the hero until I get the perspective scripts ready.
And I have to make a pano, and edit some autotiles. But Luckily, Ive got a full day to myself today, aside from having to shave and run to the mall for a bit.
Stay tuned though.

Post by: Ben on November 29, 2006, 08:55:00 PM
This name is better. Less...long.
Uh, I picked up a super cheap dollar store webcam today.
So i was playing with it, and took pictures of a couple of sketches I had handy.
They are low res, but whatever. Youll get the point.
The bamboo/smoke one is cluttered. Im not happy with that one.
Im proud of the Ganesh-head piece.
The sepia tinted piece is a character from the Comic/Game project. The dude in the rice hat. I guess this picture is a bit of a spoiler, but meh. He was sposed to be all cloaky for the longest time. But, uh...hes not...here.....im.....rambling....off

I shall submit this to CR right after this.

Its alot of fun, now that I have the hang of it, and Ive been trying to try my hand at sprites and chipsets.
Most of what I came up with was awesome as hell, but I had got carried away. I dont have the patience to spend a week on one chipset...So I took the advice of Mr. HellsAngel. Ive been making chips and sprites to look like theyu were hand sketched, and Im doing this all in black and white. Its a fast process in this style, as its alot more forgiving and I can go freestyle with minimal restrictions this way.
Anyhow, I figured Id put a couple on my USB drive, and post them.
In a couple of weeks Ill have high-speed again, And Ill start my old Genia thread back up. The whole style of the game is getting changed over to the hand drawn look.
The sprites are oversized here...and the man-sprite hasnt been cleaned up like the girl yet. I still have to trim his edges and stuff.
Post by: Ben on January 02, 2007, 09:19:55 PM
EDIT: I should probably mention that these are RTP edits. But theyre just NPCs. The Main Characters of the project are Origonal.
Post by: Ben on January 23, 2007, 07:35:59 AM
After the desperation wore off, I made this.
Its a bare bones mountainy chipset. Im going to use this as a base for the chipsets to be made in the future. Id post a screen, but i dont feel like it right now....
but the chips look sweet when used right.
The chars in this project are oversized so everything is congurent.
Ive scrapped the black and grey.

Post by: Ben on January 27, 2007, 05:59:48 PM
But Im not sure If these sprites are useable.
I think I may need a slightly more Airial-view Sprite format.
Its not really congruent with the Chipsets....
I dunno....What do you dudes think?
EDIT:Yeah, Faces are coming....I was just kindof preoccupied getting the bulk stuff done.
Does anyone have any suggestions on How I can make the sprites look more congruent without redoing the bases from scratch?
Or perhaps a decent Sprite template I can use as a base, to edit, with a better top down feel that isnt RTP?
Size is not an issue. I can Resize and edit
Post by: Ben on January 27, 2007, 11:38:52 PM

I guess compare to some of the stuff, this is kind of boring.

I have some add-ons for this too, but just look in C.R. for those.

I would like to get some more stuff in this here gallery and perhaps get some more tutorial action made.

I mostly use MS paint and Painshop Pro 7...But Ive as of today decided to train myself out of Paintshop pro and start using Fireworks.
Which Brings me to these next three posts.
They are an Image I plan on splicing into My title Screen. Im not sure which on Ill end up using. It all depends on what Else I make for the title.
Here they are. This is actually PsP7 and Fireworks stuff Amalgamated. I used both.

Im glad you like.

Post by: Ben on April 28, 2007, 10:25:59 PM
If I could scrap that first attachment I would too. That stuff was ghetto iDraw stuff.
Actually, Im not happy with anything I did until I got the tablet honestly.
Im kindof stumped as to what else to work into the title...I had a group picture of somme characters from C-O-G but it looked super clichee. Im thinking of some gnarled Bare trees or something. Ill probably take a bit of a break from the title. Im
going to go do some tats tomorrow, so Im focusing on the actual pen and paper right now. Expect nothing from me for the next week. Its now officially work season for gemini

The colours were quite hard, those you used where really Gemini and I can't really use antoher colour unless you make it. That's just awesome work. But I did my best
Looks great as well really, kinda likes the style, much better than the other megaman sprites you find on the internet.
Post by: Ben on October 22, 2007, 05:28:18 PM
The way I did the colours are as such...
With the exception of detailed faces, every resource ive made for these consists of 2-3 colours.
You seem to have nailed it, prpl...
Ive picked a colour, (say it was the flesh tone in the naked poses) and floodfilled the area. I then used a colour selector and used a slightly darker shade for the shadows. Then, I picked a much darker value of the same colour for the outline. I did this to try and make recolours and palette simplification easier.
i like your sprite. I will try and adapt that into various resources. You have inspired me.
EDIT: One day hopefull in my downtime here, Ill get inspired to make a set of Forward facing and away facing walk and dash sprites. Then i think more people would be inclined to want to use these in XP games or some junk. I think they would work well for battler animations
Post by: Ben on October 22, 2007, 07:32:50 PM

I am sick of making sprites for now. I may spit out a face or two for these guys, but i think Im going to focus more on making tiles for the project. Ill make some and post them in the next few days. there is a signboard and a mushroom i spit out on the sheet here, just to see how they look in comparison.
I AM BLATHERING.

MS paint is Microsoft paint. As in, the standar paint that comes with a windows computer.

I would never bite ones head off for asking a bout that.
Contrary to popular belief Im all about sharing, as far as Knowledge goes.
I only bite heads off and call people n00bs for doing ignorant and selfish things, or generally acting suspicious.
And you dudes are swell. Thanks.
Ill post the Revised versions of the sprites, complete with motion blur and whatnot
Post by: Ben on June 11, 2008, 12:56:23 AM
the FINAL (i swear this time) draft of the Male and female Base templates.
I realize there is not much of a difference in body shape between the male and female sheets, aside from small boobies and a bit of shading tweaking....but most of the effeminate alterations to these sprites female set is to be done via the layers.
Hope you enjoy them. Feel free to use, And credit is nice, but really, its not mandatory.
You'll see some 2K3 sprites at the bottom. These are for my over world Map system.
They are generator template edits. The colors Match the others, except that the small sprites Have one extra mid-tone.
These are intended for use in My MMO project, once it comes around to being made...But for now, as a means to learn Game Maker functionality, And When stencyl is released, to be used for possible projects there...so for the time being Ill be making a single Player Game out of this stuff.
The Basic Town platform chip set is for the most part done, I still have some more things to add, but what I have will do for now. Ill post the chips once i have them all configured and photobucketed

i havent figured out how to set the 24-bit transperancy in game maker yet....and this was just a quick tester screen to make sure ebrything lined up proper.
Did you know that in game maker you can have like, ten thousand priorities of tiles?

btw glad ya like the style :-D
Post by: Ben on June 23, 2008, 08:03:05 PM
If you want to give those a whirl Id be indebted. And so would any future users of this template.
If you have msn and wish to add me I can gladly answer any questions regarding pallette or technique
(knives_are_quiet@yahoo.com).
Seeing what you can come up with for this template gives me ideas for my own purposes.
Edit: For the love of god, I have never been able to make a good crouching pose for these either.

Use any of my material you want, change it however you want, keep it, its yours...
I made it for everybody, and I dont request credit either. God knows you side view battlers
helped me immensely and im just glad i can return the favor.
Ive been in a spriting rut lately... Ive been meaning to make up a larger heavierset human sprite template, and a smaller, slimmer more elven set as well. This whole thing is making me want to give another go at them.
But i wont lie, Ill probably just end up making more tiles and system items.lol.
Post by: Lukas on June 23, 2008, 08:31:37 PM
Not too bad for making it in a few seconds i think.

Post by: Ben on June 23, 2008, 08:46:58 PM
I think Id end up holding off on them until I saw the outcome of the other body frames at work.
The way I have been spriting the faces onto the actual templates has a bit of a twist to the style about it, and I cant seem to decide on one thing yet. But yeah man, Ive definatly been giving it some thought

Post by: Ben on June 26, 2008, 07:39:13 AM
Ive added/am adding an optional tail to this template.
I also sprited the body of a reptile thing carrying a stick, just to show a bit of half assed finished product.
(http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n219/knivesarequiet/EXAMPLEpng.png)
Again I must stress this is a WIP.
But im thinking this one is going to turn out pretty radical, and should fit nicely with the other stuff Ive made

Post by: Dominicy on June 26, 2008, 07:06:26 PM
A bit more on topic, the template looks good and all, the running just looks alittle unnatural. It might just be when it's not animated, but the last one particularly looks weird. Like it could double as a jump animation. That's pretty much my only complaint/criticism.
I'm, ofcourse, talking about the adult human template, not the lizard/imp/child one :P
Post by: Ben on June 26, 2008, 08:05:27 PM
As of now, that particular cell Does in fact double as a jump animation.
However, now that youve said that Ill probably try and figure out a way to make it more fluid.
Heres is a mock up of the hairs paired up with ALL TWO of the items i have made for the adult template. A gree t-shirt and some work gloves.

Im thinking a raptor head, a floppy lilo-and-stich style head, a human shaped head and 2-3 kinds of feet.
If i make some interchangeable nody parts, it should work well for all sorts of things...from children to Lizard men or kobold style monsters.

Its probably because Im an effin' n00b at gif making. I usually save the gif with GM, and the just upload it to an online gif editor to set transperancy and make it loop. I cant seem to do that with GM....And I have yet to find a no nonsense downloadable exe style gif editor.
Anyhow, yeah here it is. but it looks choppy on the interbutts/(http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n219/knivesarequiet/ZZZXXXYYYGIF.gif)

HUMAN FEMALE
CHILD UNISEX
and
REPTILE UNISEX
They are all arranged for use with GM, but theyll work for battle animations too.

Ill still be doing a giant/hulky template, and Ill likely do a non human Offshoot of it as well.
All future additions to this template will be done in the same format as these ones, so that items and such can be copy pasted directly onto the existing templates to decorate them.
Hope you guys enjoy.
When CR is up and running again for submission, Ill be sure to post them.
As I said, theese are for your use. No credit is needed, but it's sure nice.
These sprites are not meant for commercial use, unless written permission is givien by myself.

*Is eagerly awaiting the day you decide to do a fat man template*
Post by: Ben on June 28, 2008, 08:56:03 AM
Ill make sure to get those perfected before moving onto the bulky template...
And now suddenly a fat human template seems to be in order. However, I likely wouldnt do as thourough a version though. In my own project, an obese person would work well as an NPC or Enemy...but Ill keep thinking it over.
I may also put together an assembly sheet, and a colour guide, full of Body parts and complete with a chart and stuff....so that people can create their own (For an example of what im talking about google "generic reploid construction sprite " and i believe youll find a megaman sprite making series of images.)

Post by: Ben on July 12, 2008, 08:07:53 PM
And the triggers are programmed by you
theres quite a bit more work then with RPG maker. its more complicated to learn, but you can do XONESQUILLION more with it. Ranging from side view platformers and chat windows to 3-D graphics and multiplayer
thing is... you need to actually learn to use the program. Unlike RPG maker, where a n00b can just learn some basic functions and make a game.
Dont get me wrong, you can do plenty of stuff with RPGmaker... wait... no you cant. nvm

Post by: Ben on July 12, 2008, 08:20:57 PM
You can do lots with RPGmaker.
As long as its a Top Down RPG
with either a turn based, active battle or if youre really good a TBS
if you ask me its pretty limited.
And what I said was true. A n00b with a good game Idea and some time on his hands only has to learn how to properly use switches Variable and Conditionals in order to make an enjoyable game.
Its limited. I wasnt trashing it, so much as just stating facts. 9/10 time RPGmaker produces a shitty and amateur looking product, because 9/10 times its some kid who wants to make it so u can play with sephiroth and naruto in ur party

Its limited. I wasnt trashing it, so much as just stating facts. 9/10 time RPGmaker produces a shitty and amateur looking product, because 9/10 times its some kid who wants to make it so u can play with sephiroth and naruto in ur party

I agree with Gemini 1000%.This is a big problem with RPG-maker is that so many n00bs
don't even try to make good games,just crappy cameos of their favorite animie heros.
And what you said about game maker being better than RPG maker i agree.I would probly take it
up again,but i the problem is finding it free.Plus tutorails and game maker freindly resource sites
with good fan made sprites.
Post by: Ben on July 13, 2008, 06:51:21 PM
Im just saying, If you want to whip up a functioning RPG to show your friends then RPG maker is better for you
And if you want to build something where you have complete controll over things like sprites and gameplay, then GM is probably better.
But in reality, by the time I have all of my Design Documents made, and All of my Tiles, Sprites, Skins, Animations and Icons Made, Stencyl Will probably be released and Ill end up using that (If its anywhere near as easy to use as them mofos claim)

Havent tested any of this yet. Will do so tomorrow or wednesday. Thursday you can expect to see the female template coming together. Unless I get sick of it and decide to make system graphics and/or icons and images.
The closer i get to having a fully complete and uniform set of templates, the closer I am to making sets of weapons, clothes and stuff.
If I ever get the hang of GM, I plan on trying to learn how to make an exe generator for these. As s

The reptile will be staying, and the progress on the Bulky Human will stay.
Im redoing the Adult HUman Male completely though. He will look more or less the same, but Ill be cleaning the whole thing up.
Im going to do All of these at one time, and I will be creating a seperate thread for this project.

Im just mostly working on some Isomatric 64X64 tiles now, and made a sweet old school 16X16 tileset. Planning on releasing an isometric TBS sprite template sometime in the early new year as well.
Im working with 16 and 8 color pallettes, to try and get my eye trained up on tertiary contrasts, which is lots of fun as well. Ill probably post some of that sort of stuff up on my DA, and maybe drop off my top down tileset here, as somebody will find a use for them.
Im diggin your photoshop lines right now too. Some nice crisp work buddy
Post by: InsaneJP on December 17, 2008, 02:40:19 AM
Yea im using the side template sheet i made im still remaking all my bcharas into them.... omg it takes forever! lol
Haha thanks glad ya like the lines My deviant actually has the originals up and the line work..... i use the pen tool with anchors and brush with pressure
I hope to make a game with my character brash eventually =)
Post by: Ben on March 30, 2009, 09:08:28 PM
but thats irrelavent.
Some tiles for a steampunky platformer....early WIP here
Much more on the way.
Figured Id post them here
The entire project is being done with the same 16 colour palette
Its my favorite palette.
Also, another piece that i never finished, that one day, i will finish, that is not finished right now.

The Illithid (I presume) looks great, to put it mildly, though the very VERY different shading techniques used between the first and second set of tentacles is extremely hard to ignore. Save for that, it looks nothing short of stunning.

Only the shoulder, two tentacles and his upper head are done.
The whole thing will be dithered at some point...at this rate it will be done in six years.

I was going for an Illithyd....but as far as physical features go, the only difference is one is bipedial without wings, and one is an ungulate with wings....and waaaay bigger.

Like tri-toed....tri toed ungulate.
I could be wrong.
On another note a tri-toed ungulate is way more badass then your standard cloven hoof
Then again, Lovecraft never really appealed to me....aside from the contemporary remakes i see here and there.

elephant hooves are cooler then claws. Getting trampled is much more terrifying then getting impaled
I must admit this is true. I'd rather be impaled than stepped on by a gigantic elephant-like foot. I mean at least with impaling, your phisical body is only damaged a little, but by being stomped on you're body is ground to dust quite quicky if the thing wieghs almost as much as an elephant. :(

Thats from my Deviant Art.
The pixeljoint contest was to remake a non pixel work of yours into a pixel piece.
If you go back a few pages youll see that too. ...right here in my gallery.

I think kids like to trace to get a feel for professional linework. nothing wrong with that. Its just that some people are too insecure about it to state the reference or base they used.
I wont lie, Ive used photo refs to get anatomy right on a couple of occasions. I havent traced since a kid though.
With the exception of tattooing. That whole job is tracing. Except that i am tracing lines of artwork ive already designed myself.
But Yeah, Uberpwn, you just lost any respect I had for you. You called me out on copying a picture that i drew from scratch when i was bored.
You called me out on making a GOOD COPY of a ROUGH DRAFT in my gallery. Not to mention the origional was already posted IN THIS VERY THREAD. go **** yourself man.

Post by: Ben on August 07, 2009, 10:12:16 PM
I figured an Alkaline metal (reactive with water) paired up with a steam tank on his arm, and a bit of a potato-gun like scenario would be a good answer to the plasma cannon in a steampunk sort of scenario. Little bits of francium would be easier to store for this megaman then an nearly infinessimal supply of cannonballs.
Post by: Vlad Shadeu on August 07, 2009, 11:17:13 PM
HE could only hold like three, but it would look cool and work.
Post by: Ben on August 08, 2009, 12:26:18 AM
Not to mention, the light flare that would come from the reaction with alkaline metal and water, would be used as a means to give a burst of light to darkened levels.

However, The engine i would use in my steam-mm is going to be used with my genia characters at some point. It would basically be a High res game, like megaman meets zelda2 meets street fighter, platformer/top down, and stuff. So yeah, no...but ill probably take a crack at making it, just with original content....megaman concept sketches are about as far as Im willing to go with fanart.
And even that is a maybe. I have 2 jobs, and a fairly active life outside of work. Frankly, it baffles me that I spend as much time as I do on the internet.
Winter is coming though, so if i can stay focused enough, maybe ill find some time to do it then.
All of these ideas I have would have a better chance of seeing the light of day if I could find a solid team of people to collab with, that knew what they were doing.

another, quicker, less efforted sketch of a different CoG character. I aged him.
By any chance did you base this guy off of Van Hohenheim from FMA? He looks a lot like him.

Then I guess you didn't base him off of Hohenheim. Oh well.

It looks like me because it is me ;) Im diverting myself with random autobiographical scenes in sequential format.
Ive been in some bizarre situations, and figured a comic is a good way to tell about them. more for friends irl, but others might enjoy it as well.

This is something Ive been killing time with lately. I guess its not much to look at yet, but Im proud thus far. Ive got a few more poses and stances to do before I start testing and debugging the animations,
and then adding some skins. My first isometric sprite attempts. I used FF12Revenant wings as a reference for size and proportions, but that was about it.
Expect more in a couple of days.

I also like working with ambients... unfortunately, they're almost all ripped from game files. For example, I found an archive of ALL the Resident Evil 4 sounds. Helluva lot better than the handful of ambient sfx in RPG maker.

Ambience... in MIDI? Are you high?
Ill take what I can get, as long as the file sizes arent huge.
This (http://www.mediafire.com/?a4f3rfju79xijl3) is something I knocked up in about an hour while looking at your screenshots. I could probably make it loop somewhere. This (http://www.mediafire.com/?a4f3rfju79xijl3) is a snippet from a longer piece.
I'm no Eric Brosius, but give me a setting and I can most likely do you some ambience to fit.

Post by: Ben on September 17, 2010, 11:18:18 PM
The game is played out through a series of small maps. Most of them wont have much for sound...The sounds I DO need are short, ambient loops. Being a flash game, load time is an issue, and as such file sizes for sounds that in the neigborhood of 1MB are WAAAY too big. The player wont be on one screen for more then say 30 seconds...on average about 15. The music would be used to give an intensifying atmosphere from room to room. So rather then One track, that gets progressivly creepier....I would need a few small tracks, that loop, each getting progressively creepier. That way, I can build up effect from room to room, and keep the load times down.
I really like what youve done. I tried the track out on my title screen and it was awesome. Im so close to having a releaseable demo (all the menus are coded...items, inventory etc....working on finishing the demo scene, and have some dialogue bugs to fix....Im hoping to have a mechanics demo published this evening)

Post by: Dragonium on September 20, 2010, 01:56:48 PM
Drop me a message on here or whatever if there's any location-specific sounds or other things you'd like.
EDIT: Guess what, looping in FL Studio is harder than it first seems. It cuts things off wrong. I'm trying to find a workaround but I can't say how long it'll take.

of storage space on their computers. When you install a game such as Crysis, it uses up about
10GB just to sit there and exist. People then complain about "large" RPG Maker games being
about 80MB. Hell! I'm willing to download a 1GB RPG Maker game if it's good enough!
Think about it like this: Would you buy a 30MB iPod and just listen to MIDI files on it? (If it
supported them) I sure as hell wouldn't! If a game's made to a high enough standard, it deserves
to have a stellar soundtrack to complement it. If it's an awful RTP game but contains the entire
FFX soundtrack and comes to 300MB, then it's a different story. See what I'm getting at, though?
Use as much music as you want. I'll still download it!
EDIT: Oh no, Dragonium's music file takes up 1.9MB! That's 0.00000095% of my hard-drive capactity! Jesus!

I still have to make the sequence for an arm swipe/attack and death/laydown.
WHY AM I DOING THIS YOU ASK?!?
Because Im attempting to make a new sprite generator for you dudes, and anyotherdudes that like to make games
naked base, and the first round of clothes/bodyparts in a complete sprite form are shown (the harry potter looking one) and a few heads.
They may be hard to see, and I have yet to test these out in RPGmaker...or anything else.
This one I am doing to specifically emulate the RPG2k3 RTP look of things. I hope Im pulling it off okay.
After this is finished and I have some parts made, Ill be making an XP and VX rtp base in this manner...then some other custom origininactacular sprite bases of my own design

I believe I asked her for them for a failed project a while back, as well as "playtesting" them for her.
Thanks so much Fruck.
I'm checking them out with stock 2K3 RTP things right now, though.
ed: Oh god, the RTP makes my head hurt.
I'll do that some other time.
Until then, I'm calling it good.
edos: When do you think the arm-swipe/attack and death/laydown animations are going to be done?
I have the script that loads in the resource all prepped to load in those as well.

Ive always liked megaman....but old megaman designs just dont translate well into badass robot armour.
So then I was going to make a fallout ranger suit out of paper....then fiberglass and bondo it...But then I was like...**** fallout.
And then I mixed the ideas. A megaman themed fiberglass suit, with fallout-ranger-goggle eyes. and gadgets in the helmet, like a respirator, bluetooth headset, rubber airtight seal.
THis is the helmets pep file. Its now made out of paper. It quite large, but it has to be to fit all the gadgets and to make it safe and padded.
I will hopefully be getting some fiberglass resin and plastic/rubber on this bitch on the weekend. Then... dremoling sanding and panting.
Ive started taking mesurments and doing sketches for the rest of the suit. When its done, the blaster will shoot glowing balls of burning, and nerf balls. Im then going to use the suit to either fight crime with, or use as a display model for art shows and crap.
Hopefully I can get a camera and get some pics of the WIP up

I can finally show you guys what I do. It dawns on me that You dudes (or the internet in general) has never seen much of my actual pen/cil skills. The tablet is all well and fine...but its just not the same.

Im hoping to have all pieces of the suit done by January. My Grant deadline is for february 1, and I have some research and publishing stuff to do in Jan.
I have space in the torso for tiny headlights, 'brake' lights and a compartment in the back to keep your weed in.

A couple of days ago, I was contacted by a colleague who needed a full on art exhibit made in 39 hours.
I was not prepared. But then I was like "fuk this, Im gonna bring tha ruckus". And I made it happen.
Since putting it up last night, Ive had some interest. I may or may not have a buyer for over a thousand dollars. Ive done tattoos worth that much...but never an illustration or painting.
I hope this equates to making a name for myself as an artist in the city I live in. Im sure tired of designing logos and chalk boards and tattoos and stuff.
More to come. The actual exhibit wont start until april.

FLAVOR X YEGStreetArt: ARTIST SERIES Ep 1 - EIGHTBIT (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMHSYjCn-pE#ws)
This is the first video in a series showcasing local graffiti artists in the city I live in. I am the first artist to get showcased in it, and will likely have an annual spot...next season Ill be battling other artists on camera. It was so cold the day we shot it, I wanted to die a bit. The snow came today, so It was likely the last piece Ill be doing until the spring, outdoors, that is not for money.
If any of you can see fit to try and help spread the video around, and get some likes and views, It would sure help out the guys who put it together.
Miss you dudes.
