DeadManWalking's Sprites: The Adventurer (Female)

[degrofm]

The head in the back view seems off-center and misshapen. The head in the front view, the hood seems to be off to the right a touch. As Kagebunji said, the eyes in the front view are odd.

[DeadManWalking]

Okay, I fixed the eyes on the front, and the uneven hair on the back is due to the palette editor stretching in an odd way, and the uneven hood is apparently due to that, too.

[DeadManWalking]

And it's done, for now, at least.  Fixed it up quite a bit, too.[attachment=1:3bbvjivx]GuardPNG.png[/attachment:3bbvjivx]

The hood on the front view looks too solid, but other than that i like it.

[Lijj]

Is it available? I like the colors.

[DeadManWalking]

Not just yet, not all the kinks are worked.  I'll probably add a portrait and finish it up Monday/Tuesday.

[Boxiii]

Also, any female variants, or are you doing those after your demo?

[DeadManWalking]

I've got a female of the Marshal set up, but that's it.  Spriting is kind of annoying when you have a deadline >_>

FINISH THEM ALL! TOMORROW!

But really, the Guard looks amazing, aside from that front hood thingie mentioned!
I can't wait for a female version, if it will ever be made!

Edit: I'm really likin' the Marshal too. (I read the thread backwards!)

[Kagebunji]

No, Guard is far from finished unless you change palettes, do what I said, collors on those certain palettes are too similiar! For female, I suggest using Myan/Monica armor, it is feminine.

Edit: I'm talking about these kind of difference, But you better do those palettes yourself, this one is created from my imagination, not copied from existing sprite, so it may look strange, but this is just an example either way

[DeadManWalking]

Head in the middle, and back frame's head too. Plus eyes on middle frame. You need to think of something other for palettes, they just are too plain, you need to mix colors that aren't similiar to each other (your palettes 1,2 ,3, 5 have colors not differing enough, for example fith palette, purple cape, light blue armor, quite similiar colors), change it ASAP.

'Head/Back Frame's Head' is really not going to help me much, what specifically is wrong with the back frames head?  Other people have commented on the middle head and they clarified what they meant  Is it the same thing or what?

Not going to be using Myan/Miang, either, the color set on the armor is too... connected, I guess, it'd all have to be the same color, I'll try Monica's.

I've already changed 2 to be more distinct. 3... how is that one not distinct?

[Kagebunji]

Try mixing silver with red on palette number 3, gold isn't exactly fitting and distinct.

I didn't clarifed what I mean on head in the middle cause it was already said it is misshapen, I added back frame to that, obvious it is that it was misshapen too.

About Monica/Myan. you weren't supposed to use them as a base, only copy/paste their armors...

[Mari]

I'm not sure I see how the back head is misshapen. The hood isn't skin tight, it's lying loose just a bit. Looks fine to me.

But as for the colours thing, I guess I can see what he says a bit.. But not on the ones he sees.
I see the legs on the last palette.. And they look.. Well, just look at the legs of the facing forward pose!

[Kagebunji]

If you don't see, then I will point it out. I said him to fix it, and he did, so it is no wonder you don't see it on current version of this Guard. And please enlighten me what palettes YOU think aren't good enough, I'm curious as hell about this. Here is first version where I said back head needs to be fixed:

[DeadManWalking]

Actually that was the palette editor's fault >_> The zoom feature on he demos stretched the image oddly.

[DeadManWalking]

Here, I made portraits.  And tried to fix the palettes (I still don't see how they're too similar...).  I've been trying to keep them in a theme, though =P

[Cheetah]

The portrait really doesn't fit the sprite very well. I like the hair and face though.

[Lijj]

I was imagining a more boyish rounder portrait. Though it's good.

[Kagebunji]

I like face and hair too like Mr. Cheetah said, but hood isn't exactly working, the thing he has on head(on sprite) looks more thight than hood. The guy with red cape is definitly an improvement, that difference I was talking about. But really, try to use Wiegraaf's CH1 armor colors(my Guardian sprite also use them if this interest ya.) for palette number one armor

[VampragonLord]

knock about 8 years off the portrait, i think the center/straight on view issue with the head isnt the head itself, its the hair + the hood. in all the other pics, the hood goes right up to before the hair line, but in the straight on view, it seems like too much hair shows, and the porportions look off
