Well this is my first attempt to a fft sprite.

Cool. It's a great start. Is it based on your username, or is it a character you like?
Pretty cool, keep up the good work. The hair might need a little bit more highlighting.
Yeah it is base on my username wich is of my making.
I find it hard for shade.But well i gonna try.
EDIT:Damn i'm trying to do the side one and it's a pain.He don't look the same.
Could someone give advice for shade?
You should make your shoulders a little wider in the portrait you look like a midget.
yeah the portrait looks young but really cool
love this
5*
I don't like that the hair is the same color as the clothes.
You are using many colors but most are almost copies of of other colors. :S
Remember you are allowed 16 colors for the sprite and 16 colors for the portrait.
I like the hair a lot, it's awesome, although it lacks shading. The main problem is that you are using global light while there should be only one source of light. Start with dark, and lightnen up the parts where the light can hit.
And if I check the portrait, the source of light should be about 30 degrees over 0 at the left side of the portrait.
As for the sprite, it's good. But the hair lacks shading there too. The lightened part looks all flat.
I know how don't have many pixels to edit for hair shading but at least try.
Excellent first sprite.
Quoteyou should make your shoulders a little wider in the portrait you look like a midget.
I've fix that and it look good i'll put it with my next sprite update.
I really hate that 16 color limit in everygame i make him(fire emblem and this) the pallete screw him up.The brown cloth is suppose to be blue.
EDIT:I've remove the bandana wich would have only happerred(Wrong spelling?) on the portrait.It give two more color to work with.May as well change the green cloth.
Everytime i post someone post while i'm writing,like zodiac, so i did not see is post.
EDIT II:And another free color found!
And i've changed the color.The green cloth became brown,The brown one became blue.Not sure i like it thought.Any idea for color?
Good job so far!
If you keep the sprite the way you have it, the arms are going to screw with you later. The blue arm at some points will be on the brown side and vice versa.
I finally finish the Sprite! :cry:

why would it screw up? W'ont the blue part alway be in the back area?
i think it will be just like the cloud sprite where the armored arm is always in front, it should be fine, but you can see all the frames in shishi's preview mode.

The problem is that it doesn't import.
oh really? that probably means you have one or two too many colors. gotta do a color reduction. zodiac did mention your sprite had copies of similar colors right? but also is your portrait really in the bmp file like that? if so that is why. itll look wrong when you import it
i wont be home untill late tonight but if i have the sprite sheet i can take a look. send it to me

Well it was hell but i made sure i had the 16 color limit.
For the portrait i just had it for people to see.
I did not put the portrait in my other version it still the ramza one

isn't it the sprite sheet?
i just had the same problem with my arc mage sprite im making.. it kept crashing, and when i changed the color limit, it appears as a giant red x... want ot send me the origonal sprite? if your using photoshop, i might know whats wrong, and if your using paint, i definatly know whats wrong.
Damn i think i found what is wrong.
Yeah I use paint.Is it because i set it at 24 bit color?or something like that?
probably.
also paint gets rid of the first black that is supposed to be there(for me in photoshop it is) watch my video to see what im talking about.
Photoshop can allow you to save it in 8 byte(what it needs to be) or 16byte..or even 4 byte for the japanese formation portraits...
Regardless, paint doesnt like me, and always deletes a color, then adds two black pallets making my total 17...
So what should i do?
Also

Sadly i have a 56k so i cannot see the video.
ill play with it when i get home, but i need the sprite sheet with the correct portrait in there, the one that has the same color palette as the sprite y'know?
