Quote from: "Vanya"I like the idea of a plume. I think Balmafra's ponytail could easily be adapted to look like a plume like the one on that helmet pic.
Brilliant! This is quite a good suggestion and a seemingly solid concept--hopefully it'd translate well in sprite form.

I was referring to that specific kind of plume. The one that opens in 4 / 5 pieces, like a palm tree.

Yes, the first one is by Far the best one, the other plumes would be interested to see if modified a little... but I like Vanya's idea to it.
"Moment's anger can revert to joy,
sadness can be turned to delight.
A nation destroyed cannot be restored,
the dead brought back to life."

Well, as we all know, the Onion Knight already exists in sprite form. Strangely I've always found that Onion Plume quite difficult to modify. Besides, there is a definite lack of varied plumage in the original game.
Plus, we can now adapt certain Item Icons for use in sprites. We can always turn our attention to those for inspiration as well.

Thanks for all the comments guys ^^
Well, I've done with the helmet and headband. I'll post them in awhile. Also, Sir Voldemort, the orange is her hair actually. ^^

Alright, I done with the helmet and headband. Tell me what you think ^^

Female Knight Rehauled (choices:helmet or headband):
The blue helmet is too flat due to only 2 shades. Sorry about that.
And, I'll give it a try for the plume idea.
Also, which shoulder pad looks better? ^^

Definitely yes for helmet #4 from the left.
I also prefer the shoulder pad #3/5 from the left.

I love them!

What Vanya said would fit the class well..

yep head 1 & 2 can be used for other sprites since they look very well made. . . for helmet I would go for 4 first choice then 5 second choice. . . shoulder pads would be 3 or 5 they have the same shoulders. . .

Thanks Mike ^^ Headband was Asmo's idea ^^
Haha. Looks like all preferred full helmet than partial, like my brother and sister. ^^
Alright, so I guess that's it for the helmet and shoulder concept. Thanks a lot guys ^^
Ohya, for that sidewing helmet thingy, which is better? Fourth or fifth?
Also, Kage, yes, I'm still doing Scryer, Male knight and Scholar. For now, I'm trying to nail down Female knight's concept first.

I like that... brainstorming with the family!

For the sidewing, I like the fourth one, but I think most of us will prefer the 5th one.

Haha. Thanks Mike ^^ I like to hear various opinions; help me to understand bit of other views. ^^
Well, personally, I kinda like the fifth one, the partial helmet/headband with visor. Hehe. Just kinda want to show her hair abit ^^
As for her sidewing, hmm...actually I'm not sure it either myself. Both looks nice too. Haha ^^

Those headband girls are adorable, great job. But I think you've properly captured the fierceness of the Knight and the classiness of females in sprite number 4. That helmet is very cool. I personally don't mind its shoulder pads, but whatever. You did great work, Jimmy.

Thanks mav ^^
Headband was Asmo's idea. So thanks to him. Hehe. Erm...fierceness knight? Is this female knight looking fierce?

Alright, so fourth helmet, fourth sidewing thingy, and third shoulder pad. So the concepts for helmet and shoulder pad are set.
Thanks guys. I'll work on the plume to see which is better. ^^

I like them all... I'm really undecided

EDIT:

OK



the second one is the best one if you choose to go without the visor

if you choose to keep the visor (it's pretty nice), I would suggest using #4 but keeping some hair visible from the back, although she looks pretty girly without it, the hair visible from the back would be great

Haha. Thanks a lot Sir Voldemort ^^
Means alot ^^
Hope Sir LD like them too.

EDIT: Alright. Thanks ^^ Hmm...visible hair from the back? You mean like Female Onion Knight?

EDIT: Here's the plume try ^^

Looks nice jimmy. Is that supposed to be a high ponytail or a plume?

Also, I liked #2 a lot!!! :( really cute. Be sure to keep her head somewhere so you can use it in another sprite jimmy!!

I think the neat looking visor adds enough detail to the helmet so you don't need a plume, but that's just my opinion. Though I must say you did a pretty good job with that plume, so maybe it deserves to stay. Though I'm curious to see what Kage has in store too...

Quote from: "jimmyjw88"Is this female knight looking fierce?
She certainly doesn't look like a pushover--I guess battle-ready may have been a better phrase to use...
