woah.. like how should i fill that in? this is where i get confused.. :P
and that sprite looks amazing, just one thing, i was thinking a black overcoat.(grey-ish) but everything else looks cool.. |
By filling in I mean get yourself a palette, then do your base colour, mid tone and highlight etc. The fundamentals of scratch, or infact any serious spriting so to speak.
|
yeah, but whats with all the greens and reds and blues. i am a novice...
|
Those need to be recoloured black, it;s easier to draw the outline in different colours.
|
ok.. i think i get it now.. gimme a night or so.. ill post the finished sprite tomorrow
anyways, you got any other good pointers for me? i wanna be an amazing spriter like you.. its like my goal in life :P lol |
Make more than one version of every sprite, you need to test palettes, shading styles etc. You should also think outside the box, avoid using really vibrant eye stinging colours at all times.
|
alright, scratch that last post.. i just did it in the last two hours.. i hink its pretty decent, and i have the pallet next to him for reference.. i also kind of restored the lineart you made, some parts were flat and out of porportion, but nothing huge.. it was just small stuff.. well, heres shadow:
http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l184/dreemxweever/Shadow-Revamped.png now the final test, kaku.. your verdict? :P |
i still think the right leg is thinner than the other leg.
|
Hmmm, in some areas you've added a double light source, which is a no. Although I do see a vast improvement, work on your dithering a little, make it less linear. Then try and make your shading rounder, smoother infact. You're definitely getting there.
|
nick, nobody cares about what you think of the legs. it's not that big of deal. plus i'd love to see you come up with something better.
|
His right leg is infact fatter, it's the angle I drew it at.
Anyways y'all, my first attempt at the new D/P trainer style. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v217/matt-crowe/BigBossdp.png Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid. No custom job this time kiddies, heavy edit. |
kaku thats actually pretty good for your first dp..
see nick, i told you it wasnt a big deal.. it was meant to be that way.. yeah, kaku did you make that from the blue haired dude in the trainer set from dp? |
The guy from Team Galaxy, I'm planning on doing some more MGS characters.
Thanks for the comment ^_^ |
yeah, no prob.. so what do you think i should work on.. like how do you go about rounding off the shading and working on dithering...?
|
lol, i can't do better but I just think that the angle, thickness, and decreased size from distance. Im not insulting it. Just a little CC.
|
Dream, C + C is a spriter's best friend, it;s the only reason I'm as good as I am. Even if the C + C seems pointless it;s well worth checking out what they're saying, it'll give you a better understanding of your audience.
|
yes yes, im not yelling at him for CC ing me, we've been having this conv. for like.. a week or so now about the leg.. before he thought the sprite was horrible cuzzuh the shading and porportions, i mean it wasnt that bad.. either way, im not trying to act out about it. Anyways, im gonna go take about an hour to work on Shadow.. il be back in a while with a couple new versions and a better default.. later all
|
I'll be looking forward to it :)
In other news I got a bit of an idea, do you reckon the staff would let us have one on one spriting duels? It's just an idea, and I'd rather know what others think before presenting it to Signomi or Amachi. |
alright, now ive got it.. the newly revamped shadow.. i think it looks the same.. i changed the pallet a little and i worked on the shading, i also got rid of that bothersome double light source. here it is:
http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l184/dreemxweever/Shadow-Revamped-1.png im not too thrilled with the outcome.. i cant figure out what to do next... and my brothers asleep in my room.. so im going to finish the other recolors of shadow when i go to bed. Kaku, your spriting duel idea sounds amazing. im sure that it would be fine with amachi and signomi.. im all for it. |
Quote:
But yeah, I'd like to see what the other members think of the idea first, and how willing they are to participate. |
I think that would be awesome to have spriting duels. I know we tried having them here a while ago, but it kinda fell through. =<
|
How so? :<
Wasn't there just not enough support for the duels, poor organisation, or was it just a combination of various factors? |
Poor organization, if I remember correctly. It was probably back in late 2005 or early 2006.
|
yeah, itd be awesome, but itd also be a leetel.. well, hard to keep in check, i mean its all ok for fun, but at what point does it STOP?
uhhh, you guys gwt what i mean? im all for it, if it gets done properly... but it might be best to do it someplace else. where you could say, really tear each other apart afterwards. i just think itll premote alot of bad blood in the spriting community is all? |
Not at all Maz, if people can't accept loosing properly , and are abusive then they won;t be allowed to enter duels anymore. Simple.
I always thought it was 04 Fuz 0_o I remember there was one between me and Dark Pegasus. Dream, you need to take up more space with the darker shade, the shadowing on the coat looks a little too straight, you also need to shade the right side of the coat in, but keep at it. |
