Llednar Sprite Progress

[jimmyjw88]

Yea. I'll try to fix up some pixels on it. The arm still ramza's arm.
And for the mug, the white is extra cause I made the hat wider.
So I just push it to the side, which is why there's white.
The mug is bigger, or better still, wider due to the changes of the hat.
I will crop it when everything is done.
And for the bottom hair...I was thinking since its behind, so it should go from dark to light. But I don't know how to blend in nicely.

As for the shirt, its actually a pattern I followed from Llednar's picture.
Here is the picture and notice the red circle.

Hmm well the patterning is an interesting idea, but I would definitely suggest trying a just red version and see how that turns out. Right now it is just too small of a cut of anything to tell what is going on. Plus that pattern is on the shoulder and I don't think you would actually be seeing any of the shoulder in that portrait.

The hair on the mug needs some of the dark browns, mostly on the back sides.

Those browns are usually multi-purpose shades that work perfectly as shadows or dark shades for colors. Almost every mug has them.

Take the female priest as example.

UPDATE*
Llednar mug

Is the dark shades for the hair looks alright?

[Asmo X]

Can't you make the hairstyle a little less crazy? Why is a bunch of it flying out of the frame like that? He looks like he's standing in a wind tunnel.

[jimmyjw88]

Sorry Asmo but I don't really get what you mean.
Is it because the hair is flowing ---->?

[Asmo X]

It's not just flowing, it looks like he's standing in a high wind. Just make it hang normally. It will probably make it easier for you too

[jimmyjw88]

Oh...I see.
Well, I'm referring to FFTA Llednar's mug. That's why his hair is like what you said.
I'll try to change it.

[Asmo X]

wow. That FFTA mug is absolutely horrible. Game artists come up with the stupidest hair styles. My suggestion to you would be to keep those bangs but not the craziness at the back of the head.

Just my opinion of course.

[DarthPaul]

I second the motion to make the hair hang normally. Otherwise it just does not seem to fit the FFT style.

[jimmyjw88]

Ok. I'll try to change it.
Thanks Asmo

[Oblivion]

Ok. I update it when I'm back from class.

UPDATE*
Llednar animation
Fixed those few pixels that Zozma and Cheetah pointed out

thanks that helps jimmy

[Oblivion]

Ack you posted faster than I did. The torso is still looking a little odd at times with the shading in his armpit varying.

that'd be my fault.
i had to kill 2 important colors that weren't so very important (in my opinion).

hey jimmy can you post the file with your updates please?

[jimmyjw88]

You're welcome ehrgeiz ^^
UPDATE*
Llednar animation
Does it still looking odd for the torso?

[Kuraudo Sutoraifu]

No, but I think the dangly bit behind his head moves just a little too much.

[jimmyjw88]

Ok.
UPDATE*
Is it still dangly too much?

[Smash]

Something's flashing under the arm, black lines look ugly all over, body looks flat, brightest shade of red should be brighter, white feather thing on the hat needs a few fixes, white cloth thingie on the legs flashes right on the frame where the left foot extends most, and the left arm looks a bit weird.

[jimmyjw88]

Wow...a lot need to fix =D

UPDATE*
Llednar mug

[SilvasRuin]

You're getting there.  The mug is recognizable, and the sprite is looking pretty good.  Hopefully you can get all the fixes Smash suggested.  You might want to darken his mouth a little, though.  It's hard to see on the smaller size.

[jimmyjw88]

Ok.
UPDATE*
Above two mugs.
Which is better?
Notice there's some shadings different.
Or still need alot of work? ^^
