Warder Sprite Thread

[Archael]

If I can somehow merge the FE General into AuraDragon's sprite with a faceguard instead of the full helm

and an armguard

that would be the perfect sprite

[AuraDragon]

Lolz, Gojoe has everything under wraps.

[Archael]

AuraDragon you plan to keep working on this sprite?

[LastingDawn]

We've found our portrait fellows! Borrowed from Guildus of Tactics Ogre yore!



A very unique look which will help augment their separate characters.

[Cheetah]

Ah there it is, that is the preview sprite that I was trying to find for you yesterday Voldemort. It is a good looking sprite overall and the portrait is awesome.

[Archael]

the sprite itself is not bad (and I say this strictly in terms of what we are looking for in this thread)

but the portrait is perfect

[gojoe]

too much?

[Archael]

^ his shoulders have some weird melding up into the head-thing goin on, and the boots and gloves look like they are inflated


gaiz stop thinking within the confines of the shrine knight sprite

we're not looking for a shrine knight, or a bulked up version of one

this is something totally different

[gojoe]

....... so you're lokng more for like what AD had with all armor plus one really big armguard/shield thing?

[Archael]

yup

that's what the topic says

exaggerated shoulders / arm guard shield are a + (since they will always be holding that part up)

but the rest of the armor has to look good as well

[AuraDragon]

Haven't been able to work on anything today, and to note:  You should use a Diagonal view for extra depth.  

[Zozma]

goodness.. better give that guy teleport... i dont think hell have more than 0 move in that much armor...

[Xeno3]

lmao I have to agree with Zozma the armor is an over kill

[Effephoenix]

How about this? If you like the design, I'll keep going.

Yes, the sheild is ass. I rushed through that. If you like the design, though, I'll make one that looks much better.

[Archael]

I didn't think anyone would actually try more shots at this one, I was planning to do it myself come December break.

But I gotta say that's not bad. A couple of things:

1) The sprite should have no helm
2) The shoulders should be a little more more defined and sloping upwards not downwards
3) The shield is actually pretty good... but perhaps make it more like a glove at the end with all the massive armor on the rest
4) The armor is skeletal almost.. it is a very unique look, and you certainly come close to what we want

I am looking at AD's sprite at the moment, perhaps add some things to that, or just trash it all and make one from scratch in December

I have to say it's gonna be a pain in the ass, because this is THE single most demanding and specific sprite request I have ever seen

I like the design, feel free to make a better one, because it definitely has potential even if it doesn't end up as a Warder

[Effephoenix]

Touch it up you say? I agree.
Made it a bit bulkier. (READ: Alot)
EDIT: Sheild supremely updated. Will make defense pose and add it next chance I get.

[Zephyr]

That looks hawt.

Let's appreciate that sprite.

WOOOOOOO!!! somebody throw appreciation cookies =O

[Archael]

wait, hold on

you had a piic up there before of a big armored gauntlet instead of a shield

you edited it out?

[Effephoenix]

Yeah, It was real small, and it didn't fit with the rest of the sprite. I didn't like it. But I could put it back on if you really want me to.

[Zephyr]

That new shield looks like a hand cannon rofl. Looks like a godly new special character
