Izirudo's Sprites

[Izirudo]

I see. You don't need to show it. It's just that I'm too inexperienced in this stuff that I have to ask before proceeding. Anyway, I'll fix them all by tomorrow. Also, there isn't that black line where you told me to erase right?

[Kagebunji]

Yeah, the line seems to be gone, I couldn't notice it any longer.

[Izirudo]

I just completed the cape and fix the bad shading thing. Here's what I got so far:

I think that the most difficult thing is the remaining one - 'hairing'. Well, I'll check out the heads of the custom sprites and decide on it tomorrow. Gotta go refresh my mind... Just give me the feedback as always, please

[Kagebunji]

I looked and tested it in-game again. Legs work perfectly now, good job on that. As to the cape, cross looks fine too, but there is one thing you have to fix(on the cape, not cross), the lack of shading, you will understand more after looking at Zalbag cape, on wich this was based(tip:look at right part of the cape). I never was a fan of silver armor and white/silver cape combo, it clashes too much with each other, but I quess you can't fix it now, can you? If you can change it though, I suggest some darker color.

[Izirudo]

No problem, changing the color is not as hard as making something new. Glad to know that mostly everything works fine now ^_^.

[Kagebunji]

Yeah, other than cliche color scheme, it works okay. Lookin forward.

Never thought I'd say this to anyone, but I love the cross! The sprite is looking really good. The whole outfit reminds me of a crusader. As for the portrait, it also looks pretty damn good. Just needs new hair.

sexy ramza is sexy

Crusader is what he's going for!

[Jon]

Very nice! One problem actually is this: your avatar on this site! You didn't index the portrait and it is too big and the wrong way. You want me to make your avatar match everyone else who has a FFT avatar?

[Izirudo]

@Jon eerrm, please help me if you want . Anyway, regarding the cape, I don't think I can change it now - things are easier said than done, changing the color to something dark like Kagebunji said means that I have to go for either Red or Black, and that leads to the changing of the Cross' color, and lack of colors on the pallete means I have to switch some pallete colors... it's kinda troublesome >_< so I may not change it. I'll be working on the head for the time being.

I drafted a hairdo based on the same hairstyle in the MMORPG Ragnarok online. Here it is:


So... Any opinion? Since this is my first sprite, I want to complete everything in a custom way. If nothing goes wrong I should be able to complete the sprite the day after tomorrow, right after fixing the shading on the cape.

[Kagebunji]

It doesn't look bad, but there is no chance it will look good in-game. Hair is quite flat. Delita seems to have something similiar to this, or even Zack, try looking at those two to see how shading is supposes to work. Currently you have flat lines with dark shading to separate them. Don't give up, you are very close to completing awesome sprite. Also, if you want him to be generic, give him blonde hair, brown or black hair stand out and make a character special.

[Izirudo]

O_O I see... I'll try going for blonde hair then... Let's see how long I can hang on XD. Almost forgot - the hair model:

[Kagebunji]

It's a pretty good reference. But you made it a bit too long on sprite. I think you will fix it on your next attempt.

[GeneralStrife]

noooo finish ramza first, : D haha
The hair is okay but sometimes its hard making hair fit in in fft

[Kagebunji]

What? Hell no, ditch Ramza. I am sick and tired of his headswaps. Don't even tempt him, Cloud.

[GeneralStrife]

It's gotta be expected, kage, ramza is the protagonist of FFT, we need a good chapter 4 replacer after all. Though I agree with you mostly.

[Kagebunji]

We don't need a one, current one is okay, just the buttpants should go. This sprite is too good to turn it into lousy Ramza headswapzlolol.

[Lijj]

Yeah that is a good sprite. I'm so glad you went with something besides a Ramza. Just because we need no more Ramza sprites ( nothing against the character)
I'm going to test it out to make sure it's quality. I'm sick of finding animation errors.
     Izrudo if you post gifs I'll be your ally. Only twinees and I post gifs of our work; it's the best way to show the quality of a sprite.

Here is one way to make gifs:
