Title: Sprite Comic *Updated 5/4* (WARNING: IMAGE HEAVY)
Post by: KazeKasano on April 22, 2009, 04:01:04 pm
Been keeping this one lying in wait for almost a year now. At long last, that sprite comic I've mentioned several times.

I liking it.

Even if fan made it is always good to have a continuation of a classic story.

Thanks! As far as the story goes, I'm continuing the hell out of the entire Ivalice Alliance with this one. There's also the chance of subtle pop-culture references in the dialogue.

Some planned dialogue:
  Orlandeau: WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!
  Beowulf (when badly injured in an epic fight, as he pulls a sword from his gut): I AM BEOWULF!!!

Throw in an ace of spades reference somewhere man. Would be too funny, maybe use the gambler sprite Mercs.

I can try, but the story is getting really damned full of stuff. I've been making notes on it for almost a year now.

Thanks for all the comments!
There should be some more ready later this week!

Hmm, interesting... though why would Delita actually defend Olan? I always saw that as one part of Delita's character which I found fantastic. He allowed Olan to live even after he knew everything. It showed that Delita was much more like T'sao T'sao then a tyrant. He saw talent and he won that talent to his side.

Keep it up Kaze, its got alot of good foundation for an expansive plot.

Although, a word of advice. the stairway your using from FFTA/2 is to vibrant. try doing some color balance or hue/saturation changes to make it fit more with the darker hues and browns.

It's coming along on the weekends mostly. However, next week might be rather expansive for it, as most of my classes are over and I only have finals left.

@Sentinal: The contrast is part of the design. It serves to illustrate Ramza's situation in comparison to Delita's. However, looking at it now it is rather distracting. I'll have to go back into the psd of the map and change it for the newer stuff.


Thanks for the wonderful comments, everyone! Stay tuned for more.

Edit: As for A2, expect to see more of its areas as the comic continues. I find that it looks very nice when combined with FFT sprites.

Sorry about that.




Seriously though, love the comic work so far.  It looks great, and I'm rather curious as to where you are taking the story.  ...Ramza is going to get out and actually do something at some point, right...?

Post by: KazeKasano on May 01, 2009, 01:25:19 am
Yeah, he'll get out, trust me.

I've got ALOT planned involving our man the Thundergod. I've really spent alot of time trying to figure out what would drive him. At some point in this comic, I plan to explore his reasons for adopting Orran. Also, Orran's execution should be something interesting to cover.

To help illustrate Orlandeau's backstory/flashback depth, and maybe give someone a base sprite...
Title:
Post by: SilvasRuin on May 01, 2009, 02:02:28 am
...more.  I want more of that Orlandu sprite.  Someone, please finish it.

Post by: KazeKasano on May 01, 2009, 02:28:20 am
Except if you put it paint at 8x, it is very obviously NOT Orlandeau. If it was, he'd have some purple to him. If the design is looked at carefully, it's Barbaneth, an almost perfect look for him, too. I made it by fusing Ramza's ponytail, Zalbaag's head, and Dycedarg's beard. His clothing is a mix of the two older Beoulve childrens', and a little of my own editing on the shirt.

EDIT: Great news everyone. All I have tomorrow is a Chemistry test in the morning, and then I'm free to work on this all day!! Great Success.

That's what I get for jumping to conclusions.  Still, I want more.  I recall seeing him in the sprite request thread, unless I'm mistaken.  Hm... there could be some interesting uses for such a sprite, not to mention he looks good.  He could use a little bit of touching up, but it is rather sound so far.

*Ponders the merits of a prequel following the exploits of Barbaneth and Orlandu in the war Barbaneth died stopping.*

Yeah, it'll receive some more loving work before I put it to use.
It's not going to be used until Volume II, if even that early, and there's tons of things to cover before I get that far.

Terrific! I'm liking the flashback, only thing I have to nitpick is the last time Olan and Ramza met was at Grog Hill, not Goland, that scene is the rather memorable "You have friends, friends that would give their life for you, you can count me among them." or something to that effect. I just think it would be a bit more of a pressing scene on that regard.
Title:
Post by: KazeKasano on May 01, 2009, 11:23:45 am
Couldn't find a screenshot of that scene, unfortunately.

UPDATE!
For those who haven't caught it yet, I totally jacked the Volume/Chapter stuff from Heroes, and I believe this format will serve me well.

Edit: Chapter 1 title has been changed, this is now reflected in the actual page. Chapter titles will usually be names of songs that I was thinking of when I wrote the chapter of the story.

I don't have time for it these days, but there may be more around christmas if I can get to it. It's project time in art college land, so it's hard to concentrate on stuff like this these days.
