Seushiro's Sprites... Redoing some sprites

[Seushiro]

ooh. .  just read it  "edit. .. .  Helpless with Portraits" -> ur not alone. . . dnt make me display a picture of a portrait FAIL!!!

Some concepts to spark more interests:

Shrine knights for ORG XIII members. . .

"We can open Kingdom Hearts with the Zodiac stones and become human"



for those who dnt know ORG XIII and need a bigger picture. ..

I loved the idea! Kingdom Hearts forever!

[Twinees]

okay that is the original version



this is the new one.

What do you guys think? I used the chemist's top (which looks like it had a jacket) and cloud's legs. Not sure about the 'armoured arm' it looks like it is part of the jacket and not an armour piece. So I might change that depending on what you guys think.

Edit: Yes i'm surprised i managed to do 16 colours also.

[Seushiro]

somehow i like the small one's arms better since it is more detailed. . . i'd say keep the head and legs part of the second and merge it with the top of the first. . . *I TOOK BACK WHAT I SAID. ..  THIS SPRITE IS POSSIBLE (OH YES 16 COLORS BOOYAH)* the middle of the second one makes him look like he has a jacket and outline and not the jumpers. . .

*edit the color for the red in the pants and gloves which is also the highlights of the hair should be changed to a lighter flesh so his face cud have a darker shade. . .

Wheres Roxas?

[SilvasRuin]

The Xemnas sprite needs darker skin tones.  It's too bad the berserker's scar won't translate well on to the sprite.  He needs different hair though.  I'm pretty sure you took that hair from Zack.  It needs a lighter tone and a different style to match the person it is based on.  Also... is that one before last supposed to be Sora?  Sora never wore one of those cloaks.  If you must make a Sora, use his KHII outfit, or make Wisdom and/or Final form.  (If you make one or both of those and animate its gliding properly somehow, I will love you forever.  Not quite sure if that is possible...)

[Twinees]

ok i changed the arm a bit and a little bit with his jacket thing.
Cheers.
His lower arm seems a bit to wide but ill see what you guys think.

[Kagebunji]

His jacket looks odd now, look at the part of chest that is closer to us, it looks cetainly strange.

[Twinees]

Which one should i continue with?
Thanks in advance.

[Kagebunji]

First one don't have much details, and that's why he isn't good enough, second one has got great pants, but his head...third one is the best for me, just copy the pants of second one. Btw, 4th one look like bullshit(no offense in that).

[Twinees]

Thanks for the ideas Kage, i'll get right on it and post back soon.
What about the boots? Do you like the boots on the third one or the second one?

Edit: I was going through some sprites and i saw the female thief's (which shows some leg at the bottom of the pants). So now i'm going to see what happens when i use that instead will post back soon.

[Kagebunji]

Definitly shoes of 2nd one, it resembles Tidus boots more.

[Twinees]

I don't want to be too cocky but i think this is my best yet. I used the female thief's pants but changed them slightly.

I would really like to hear your opinions to make it better, but its pretty close to complete now I think.

I wonder if Zalge is still doing the portrait.

Edit: I think the pants may need to be one pixel longer on his left leg

[MiKeMiTchi]

twinees, the tidus sprite really looks fat, imo.
Also, the hair looks afro.

[Twinees]

I took your words into consideration but the only reason why he looks fat i think is because of his arm so i made it a bit thinner. Also which hair style do you prefer?

[MiKeMiTchi]

Use the Vaan sprite's hair.
Just lessen the saturation of the hair after that.

Also, it might be better if you use the Vaan sprite as the base image.

[RolyTunedIn]

they look pretty good, although axel dont have a ponytail, saix looks kind of funny(mainly the hair). your roxas looks really good compared to the old one, but their hoods dont need to stick out so much.

as for the tidus sprite, i think the hair looks okay. i like the boots, other than that it looks funny in a way.

[mav]

Alright twinees, you're getting closer with the Tidus sprite, just don't rely on the dark outline. See the yellow on his shirt thing? That really shouldn't have the dark outline; use one of the browns from his hair. You might only have 16 colors, but that doesn't mean you can't double dip. Also his left arm looks strange: what angle is it at? In fact why are both arms sticking out?

The palette is no good. Not enough spread. I've seen this before in other spriters. You have a fear of depth. You need darker shades otherwise this will continue to look cartoonish and flat. The arm closest to us also looks detached. Like it's a pipe of some sort and the hair is outlined. DO NOT OUTLINE THINGS.

Looking good so far. There's progress. Keep on taking advices. Its going to turn out well ^^
However, you could try this, from japanese. Its quite good looking. Maybe a little bit of tweaks from all the advices and I think its good to go. Plus, it saves you time and trouble ^^
Well, its only suggestion ^^
Cheers =)
