Title: Monk with Agrias head/hair
Post by: Teapott on January 05, 2014, 03:57:37 pm
Hi guys, it's a pleasura to start using the forum, and I decided to start spriting <3 :lol:
As my first attempt, I tried a Female Monk with Agrias' Hair and Head...
I need some suggestions and tips, since this is the first of many sprites...

(I'm sorry if I misspelled something 'cause I'm brazilian :oops: )

(...Hope the image didn't error, lol)

I like the color combination.

The shoulder guard things look a little awkward, though... perhaps too bright? We're also accustomed to using black for backgrounds (as it's required by shishi), so it would be better to use black instead.

I like it, though. It's a cute idea. Keep it up!

Maybe if I remove the shoulder armor, it could work! What do you think?

This is actually very nice for a headswap and repalette. I like it a lot. What whites did you use? As a rule of thumb its always best to find existing colors on other fft sprites to use.

Other than that great job, I look forward to see this completed.

The Clothes came from Black Mage 1st Palette (I removed a little of blue) and White Mage 1st Palette (I made it more white) and the hair came from Monk 2nd Palette
Thanks for the support  :oops:
(I hope you guys can urdestand me since my english is still poor)

Here is the progress, but the movement is bothering me a little bit, what you guys think?

Hey, it's nice to see another Brazilian newcomer!
The sprites look very good, by the way. Keep it coming!

I guess I finished the "alpha", but it has some errors (I fixed the palette, but some poses have bugs)...

Wow, another brazilian here!? =D

We actually have a few Brazilians here, believe it or not! (And I used to know some Portuguese, but that doesn't translate well into Brazilian Portuguese, sadly...)

You're making good progress! The red and black is a really pretty combination! I haven't looked at it in motion yet, but patience will fix any errors.

With some Translating from Google you may understand a lot =D

Thank you, I'm really happy by seeing everyone here being so good and welcoming~
I'll fix some error tomorrow, I'm really tired of spriting today @____@

I really like the colors used for the sprite. The red isn't overwhelming and looks good with the black.

What kind of errors are you having with the sprite?

Some of the "heads" aren't fixed right, some are above of the body and others too sticked, I don't know, I'm virgo, so I'm really perfectionist @______@
And I'm having a problem with the Blue palette, the 3rd color shade of clothe melts a little with the hair, that's why I used the Red+Black palette, since the Red is also the Hair Colour, then the error would be "camoufled"

(Ok, there's a lot of gramatical error and misspeling there, sorry a lot)

If you don't have it yet, download magnifixer from this post:

http://ffhacktics.com/smf/index.php?topic=5084.0

It's really helpful! Nice spriting :)

Elric could we get that link to magnifixer stickied somewhere if it isn't yet?
