GOOD NEWS GUYS!
I have finished the female reliquian!
I finished her bec. I was bored to death when the phone lines were busy and there's no electricity bec. of the typhoon..
(plus palettes)

Apparently, the board said I reached the attachment limit, so I'll edit later.

Wow...that is great news except for the typhoon....Is it bad?
And that was fast Mike!! Finished her whole spritesheet?? I'm still stuck at Scholar walking animations =.=
Anyway, don't worry about the portrait first. ^^

Well, because I based it mostly on the Reliquian, it was an easy job.

QuoteWow...that is great news except for the typhoon....Is it bad?

Not quite. It's REALLY bad. I'm lucky bec. I didn't experience the flood.

QuoteAnd that was fast Mike!! Finished her whole spritesheet?? I'm still stuck at Scholar walking animations =.=

Don't worry much about that.. So far, the scholar looks cool!
..worry about the arms.

That's relieve ^^
Thanks Mike. Yeah, that spinning arms. Haha.
Yeah, maybe mav may help on this if he is available. I mean, currently, with Smash and Curu gone, so little that able to make a decent looking portrait. I wished I could help but I'm still trying to improve Llednar's portrait, so I don't have the skill to help with this. Haha ^^

EDIT: I fixed the Scholar and here they are:



Now....CRITS AWAY!! AGAIN!!

EDIT: Don't worry. I'll move on to other poses even if these are still not perfect ^^

Move on! imo, you'll be stuck if you'll make him perfect.

Well, for the latest one, it looks better.
But still, there are problems with the consistency jimmy.
IMO, leave that alone for a while and move on.

Quote from: "dwib"The hair for the female reliquian is inconsistent in the views. In the front view the 2 strands of hair are very thin while they are almost as thick as the ponytail in the forward-diagonal view. Thin once again in the side view.

Got it.

Hmm..
Okay, here it is, without fixes, but already playable.
eventhough I think some won't like it. We just need a portrait and palettes.

Wow lots of nice stuff here. . .

well here is the best way to check Jimmy. . .
Old

New


*2nd one seems to be a hop away. . .

** Mike Nice work on that Sprite. . . must be my computer now but I think colors need a slight touch

Looks great Jimmy, move on.

Wow, that's amazing Mike!! Well done!!
Hop away....Hmm....I guess I'll leave that as it is for now or I'll stuck there forever. Haha
Thanks Cheetah ^^

Now that I think about it, male dragoon will be rehauled (you are still working on it Asmo?), but what to do about female one? There is a need for solid concept...

Jimmy this schoolar looks good, there are few minor details though, but no point in worrying about it, just continue

Mike, I like the female reliquian, I can make few palettes (at least from this what I got on this computer).

QuoteThere is a need for solid concept...

Kain with boobs.  There you go.

On a more serious note, male and female dragoons have never really looked all that different from each other through the series, so "Kain with boobs" pretty much sums up what my answer would be anyways.  Just make the Kain sprite have some feminine curves and maybe some hair seen out the back of the helmet.

It will still look too manly, just look at those arms and legs, they do not fit for woman...

I don't like such similarity though... personally I feel as if it's a bit of a copout, what of Freya's outfit in FFIX? It would be another reference as well as looking wholly unique.

Hmmm Freya is wearing red outfit, not much armored, but she would fit perfectly! Good sugestion LD. I would like to do her, but unfortunatly, I'm not on my work-computer...

Great job jimmy!! And congrats Mike on that female Reliquian! *thumbs up* weren't you gonna remove the turban? (as female don't wear turbans..?).

Oh, and Freya rocks! Whenever you want a classic FF reference, just look at IX ^^

Freya is cool, but I really don't like this rat-type in FFIX, if only they were humans...

Well.. it'll be human here on FFT. But rat people in IX was cool... it was the 1st time a rat-human appears in an FF. And Cleyra just kicks major ass

Ooh, a Freya-type outfit for the female Dragoon would be very interesting. Take a female Red Mage, modify the hat, give her big boots (a la male Lancer), add some other items to the clothing (like that band on Freya's arm; that's neat looking), and make sure red is the least seen outfit color and you're ready to go. I think Cheetah had an armored female Red Mage in the works. That's a pretty good start.

As for female Reliquian, I would help out with the portrait, but with all the computer trouble I'm having, I doubt I could commit.

Here's a thought for a double reference and a more unique look in one.
Freya has an ability called Reis' Wind which is a reference to Reis from Seiken Densetsu 3 (aka Secret of Mana 2).
What if we combined some of the features of Freya's design with some of Reis' design?
The Mana series is a Final Fantasy Gaiden after all.



Reis' jobs:
Amazon - Valkyrie - Rune Maiden - Vanadis (aka Freya) - Star Lancer - Dragon Master - Fenrir Knight

Interesting idea. Couldn't Reis be a reference to our Reis too..?

The other way around actually. Our Reis is a reference to her.
I'm gonna add some more reference pics.
