Final Fantasy Hacktics

okay Zodiac, so after a little work on the sprite i tested out a color reduction and i'd like to know which of these 16 color pictures would you prefer.

Really hard choice but I think I'll go with #1.

alrighty, that would have been my first choice as well, so option 1 it is

aaaalright progresssss....
still in the process of turning the gloves into bare hands but its going smoothly as planned.

I like the design. I think you might find you are going to need to add another shade to the hands to make them work well though. Currently they might end up looking like fleshy gloves when zoomed out. Is there no bare hands that you could just replace onto the arms? It should be a pretty cool looking sprite though.

=D looks awesome

I started working on my new avatar (as well as it being the game portrait).

Thanks to Asmo and Arch's comments & suggestions.

looks really good

 

Pretty much done with new avatar, still open to comments & suggestions though.

Looks really good. It would be great if you could add a little more texture to his hair, but it is almost impossible to do that when you are actually working with just pixels instead of actual artwork (I sure can't do it). Yeah it looks pretty final to me.

yeah the arms are the biggest undertaking of the project, first priority is ensuring all the other body animations are done, then making the section above the hands into wrists rather than gloves... im not sure id want to use a different arm set because the ninja arms link up perfectly to the jacket.

also your new avatar looks great it will go well with this sprite AND make it less laguna-ish and more you. the darkest shade of brown in the hair might be a little strong but it really does look great.

man i had so many ideas on how to make your sprite but its turning out much cooler than i expected.

im starting to get motivated to make my own sprite for once wooho.

Update below: (by the way i had a difficult time finding male sprites either without gloves AND with sleeves short enough to cut/paste the hands)

Looking really good.

alright here is a beta version to backup my work and to let anyone test it out,

note: (gloves converted to hands not yet complete, in water animations not complete, portrait not added)

also how does this avatar look?

Wow Zozma, Zodiac looks badass.  How did you do it?

As for the avatar, it looks like there would be more hair in his face (looking at sprite) but it looks fine.

i merged the 20yo male and male ninja and the rest just sorta fell into place for me... as for the avatar, i only smoothed out zodiac's version but the thought had occurred to me about over the eye.

what about this?

beautiful work guys!

Allrighty there may be one or two bugs but here you go!! enjoy

im very motivated to start my own sprite now! (god ive still gotta finish my berserker, and beatrix too wooohoo... lol)

zozma, you rock, really!

hehe yeah shes definately in plans for the future

It is a good looking sprite, nice work. Though I would recommend posting it somewhere in the custom sprite section as well.
