I just did some minor shifting of some pixels here and there. I did another update. It just has some more minor adjustments. I'll post it tomorrow.

OK, the last edit is up. i adjusted some elements to make the animation more fluid and I adjusted the shading on the helmet some more. What do you guys think?

yo Vanya, since you're like the best at these enhanced knight classes.. perhaps you could lend me a hand on this one... my next project is creating a sprite for Miluda... my idea is simple id like her to have the female knight sprite but without the cape... but making the skirt for the backside seems complicated... what do you think?

I could give it a shot. I'll look into it and let you know.

I think the helmet is perfect now. Totally ready to move on to more animation frames unless you have a desire to change up the armor or cape. Like someone else said elsewhere, the cape for the Onion Knight is unique. Plus it would show off the badass armor better.

But your current design is good too. The helmet is just so unique it would be awesome if you could make the rest of it totally new too. The game is in definite need of a heavily armored unit.

Thanks. For my purposes, the armor and cape is good. I will, however, do a version with the Onion Knight cape just because I agree that it would look good. As for heavy armor, I might add a mod of the original knight's breast plate to it.

Maybe look at the Dragoon's and the Shrine Knight armors too for inspiration.

That's a good idea.
I'm planing on using Meliadoul as a base for the female Knight. So I'll definitely be examining the Shrine Knights.

I like the third one best.
The breastplate looks good, I just don't like it.

Keep up the good work Big V!

I still like your original one. That with the helmet would be pretty awesome too. Or maybe just the helmeted one with a white cape. Whichever is easier

OK, cool. What I'll do is use the latest one for my hack and I'll work on alternate versions for general public use. When they're done I'll post them here and submit them to the main site as well. =)

I'd have to say I like the third version the best too.  I just don't think the chestplate gels well with the bottom of the shirt.

Though I must say, the helmet is awesome.  As long as you make a final version with a helmet, I'll be very pleased. I'll replace the original Knight with whatever you end up using, even if it is just a finish of the first version. Knights need armor. NO EXCUSES  :wink:
I changed jobs and that has made all the difference.

The reason I'm hesitant about the chest armor is that examining the type of armor that Delita uses I realize that he has chest armor. Often plate armor of this type was worn with a tunic covering the breastplate. I think I'll keep the minor edits I made to the rest of the sprite and lose the breastplate. If anyone really wants to have a more pronounced breastplate they can add it pretty easily. Sorry, Cheetah.

So I'll be releasing 2 versions. The one with the helmet is my priority, and afterwards I'll complete the one with the white cape.

Oh. So THAT's what all the armored specials are wearing: a tunic!

No offense or anything but the Chest Armor Knight looks a little pregnant.

Sad day on the chest armor, but it is still a cool sprite.
