First Attempt at Spriting For Charas

[GrooveMan.exe]

No, It's not a complete sheet - at least not yet. I'm just looking at what I can come up with, spriting for something so small.



A Sci-fi style battlesuit, and a black face with brown eyes (because for some reason, the creat-a-char thingy doesn't have that combination).

More later, but C+C?

[Me5kuTis]

Nice work although you could do some shading on his head.

[Grandy]

 Wait... I know ya. You're from TFS, aren't ya?

 Anyway, the cahr is not bad, though it could get better.

[EXO Muffin]

Eh, it's okay. Needs some head-shading and a bit more detail, though. Glad to see that you're helping out the Charas community!

[GrooveMan.exe]

Ok, so add more detail too the head.
I'm not going to try hair just yet, it's a bit beyond me.

By the way, when I'm done, what next? Should I submit the sheet as a whole, or split it into its individual parts and submit it to that caras generator?

And yes, it's the same GrooveMan.exe from The Fallout Shelter. (And Sprites Inc., and The UnderSquare. I join a lot of forums.)

[GrooveMan.exe]

Improved head, seprated them into individual objects.





Although, what about the clothing recolours... is that up to me, or do other people chip in?

[EXO Muffin]

That looks great! The battle suit looks awfully like a bathrobe, though.

About the recolor things, you could do it yourself, it doesn't look that hard to recolor. People usually edit it themselves, though. If you want to get some 'cool points,'(It's an expression people use here;not actually tallied or anything.) you could submit tons of versions at once.

You should submit it to the generator. You might wanna use the transparent green as your background, though. It saves people some work.

0_o Bathrobe? Converting a design to something so small is harder than I thought. The suit is based of a larger sprite of 'me', done in MegaMan Battle Network style.

About the sheet transparency; I tried using the green that was there, but it didn't go transparent in the editor. The white did, so I stuck with that.

[EXO Muffin]

It still looks kinda jacket-y in the comic.

[GrooveMan.exe]

Well, if it looks the same, then it worked. ^_^

But I still need confirmation about the transparency issues. What rules are there for it to be submittable?

[EXO Muffin]

You have to make to not use the transparent green anywhere in the sprite(just the BG) or make the BG color not used anywhere else.

[I Have a Sandwich]

White actually. Anything white will be transparent. Use the off white technique.
