Twinees' Sprites

[Sephirot24]

Very interesting. Having innate float it'd even make that up and down movement all the time as if it were really flying. Great! ^^

[mav]

Holy fuck, that's so epic. Keep at it, man, keep at it.

[Twinees]

Ok, this will be pretty much my finished flying sprite, im not sure whether to make him bob up and down automatically, or use float like sephirot24 said.

It would probably look odd with float on him, but it would look really weird if he had automatic bobbing and float.... haha



Thanks for all the great comments XD

[jimmyjw88]

Yes, this is perfect. Congrats, twinees. Well done. We will now see the first flying unit in walking animation.^^
I'll definitely looking forward to this sprite completion.

[Wasabi]

I think that sprite will look good with float. Very nice. Props!

[Twinees]

I'm not sure what i should do for his 'standing still' frames (all views). Should he be flying or standing on the ground? Freezing in the middle of the air will look odd, and it will look jumpy if he went from standing still then to flying hahah. I might check how the revenant wings sprite does it, but i think it has an animation that shows him lifting off the ground.

[Kagebunji]

Good job with those walking animations.

Maybe try looking on how this dude in RW attacks and casts magic? It might point you in some direction.

[jimmyjw88]

Hmm....If you innate float, it'll look great during walking animation as if he is flying, however, if you make him stand, it'll also look weird because he is standing in the mid of the air (with that innate float). But if you make his wings open up without flapping, it'll look weird too because didn't flap. Hmm....tough one...

I can't recall off the top of my head, but when do sprites stay in a static motion (aside from when they're petrified)? I thought they would always walk-in-place...Or maybe I'm just misunderstanding what you guys are talking about.

[jimmyjw88]

Don't worry mav. You didn't misunderstood anything here ^^
Stay motion....in the beginning of battle when the mission show up, if I'm not mistaken, the sprite stay right?

[Twinees]

yep thats right

[jimmyjw88]

Also if being Stop. So basically, I think standing isn't much issue here. Just make his wings open and float.

[Twinees]

open? you mean when it reaches its highest point?

[jimmyjw88]

Yes, either that or roughly middle but I think highest point should be better.

[Twinees]

K thanks Jimmy.

Anyone interested in making a portrait? hahaha i suck at them.... you could use this as a guide...

Depending on preferences, we might not include his necklaces.

[jimmyjw88]

I can't see the picture...I mean the picture didn't load.

[mav]

Here's a link to the picture. I might be able to work on a portrait, if I get the time. Is this guy human-sized? The sprite looks kinda small, almost like a child, but the image you just posted looks like a 20 year-old or something.

[jimmyjw88]

Base from the sprite from Revenant, I think he is a kid ^^

[Kagebunji]

To me he is definitly a kid.

[Twinees]

On Final fantasy wikia it says he is 20 years old.
