Yeah I see... so what do you think of the sprite? How does it look now?

Most excellent. Though I believe that the helmet should be the same color as the armor, and that the cape shouldn't. Maybe use that dark brown for the cape. The rear views are struggling right now, but I think fixing the color issue will help that as well.

On frame 4 I think it needs two whitish pixels where the subtle brim would be showing, because in the front views it kind of wraps around his head. This sprite is pretty awesome; if, when the time comes for a port, no one else steps up, I will.

@Cheetah I know the cape shouldn't look the same as the armor, so perhaps I'll change it to yellow/orange. It's the only possible color change for the cape now - it requires some dark color to contrast its look so the best bet is to use those. About the Helmet, I thought of and tried using the same color as the armor, but it means there'd be almost no decoration possible... It will definitely look too plain. I'll stick to this helmet and try changing the color of the cape.

After changing the cape's color and adjusting the helmet a little:

i really like this sprite, i actually sorta preferred it with hair (the blonde hair was my overall fav) but this is also looking pretty great. the cape color is much better now and the helmet just needs a little touching up. i dont know what but the back of the helmet needs SOMETHING to it.

Yeah It needs something... Someone has any idea about what to put on its back? Darn it If only I can complete the head... >_<

Id suggest you make a brim visible on it, like Lijj suggested too. An it looks pretty awesome now! Btw, it maybe should be white helmet, but dark looks way better.

Looks fine. I don't think the helmet needs anything in the back(I see you added the 2px).. I actually liked the off-white cape more(Templar colors) but. enough! Just make it multi paletted.

Multi-palleted like the generic sprites? Erm, I'll just need to fill in the lines below the first line (in the pallete) right?

crusader looks great. I do like the white cape better though.

No, white cape looks worse. The current one creates a better contrast. It's weird if everything were to be white or silver. Duh.

I've been busy so I couldn't do much. I'm still in the process of swapping and adjusting the heads. Perhaps It'd take a few more days to complete.

That cape looks freaking terrible. Shade it, man. Shade it.

Yep, Mav is right. Remeber to shade the cape.

I just tested the sprite out on an emulator and found some minor weird spots, so I fixed those up... There are still some heads that I haven't edited yet, but worry not. It's gonna be complete soon.

Take your time, quality is most important, hehe.

Updated work:


I also finished the other palettes:


Well, just give me a piece of your mind. I may need you guys' help with the portrait. Or worse, can someone do the portrait for me? I'm just no good at it >_<

Btw, to edit the sprites in an event, I need to use the Hex editor right? I just read the inserting custom character animations tutorial in the main site and can't help but wondering about it.

Looks good. But you still have to shade the cape! Like Mav and I mentioned earlier, it looks a bit flat now. Palettes aeem pretty good, can't see much saturation at all.
