Title: Battle Char Attempt
Post by: blaman on June 27, 2008, 03:19:51 PM
I hope I posted this in the right place...
I've been doing starting some battle sprites for my current project. Here's the first B-Char for Naomi:

Face Graphic:

Front Char Graphic:

Still Pose of Battle Char (Based off the previous 2 pics):

What do you think of the battle char, in comparison to the face/char? I've also been struggling with animations. I tried once with her hair flowing in the wind along with her dress, but it came out absolutely horrid. (And, it was much too stiff.) Any ideas as to how I can animate her, improve her, whatever? Comments are greatly appreciated! :D

Looks great! The real test is whether or not you can pull off all the awkward poses in the same style :p

Thanks for the comments! :D Indeed, it will be a challenge to get her in the various poses that are required.

But now, I've hit a bump in the road, and need some help. Every time I try to animate her, she looks odd. I can't seem to think of a good animation to do. I've tried her with her hair flowing along with her dress and bending her knees every now and then, but her hair ends up looking really odd. (I'm using battle animations, so I got room to do smoother animations.)

Any ideas? I'm not sure what kind of something she should do as a still pose.

Well, I hate to break it to you, but her hair looks rather odd in the first place. It doesnīt really match the face or the charaset... And it looks like itīs stabbing into her scalp, rather than growing out of it. Maybe fix the hair before you start animating it. Other than that, everything looks fine.

I'll have to send it to you after I mess around with it a bit more to fix some issues I have with it. (It's only her still animation right now.) Thanks for the offer! :D

I've actually been messing around with her pallette a bit more, and it looks alot better now. I'll fix the hair up, and post it back up first chance I get. Thanks! :D

Sorry for the long delay. I haven't been working on it much recently. (Actually, the project featuring Naomi is possibly going to be cancelled due to a major lack of interest in the story o my part. :dry:)

However, here is the newer version I did:

And here's the horrid animation of the older version:

(Keep in mind, when I animated this in RM2k3, I looped a bit before she bended her knees.)

Looks good Bob, the face should be a little bit rounder.

Wow that looks awesome!I like the movement in the GIF.
If you cancel your project you should still use this for other stuff.
It realy does look good.
