Sketchasaurus Rex/ S. rex / Sketch-rex

Oh yeah, I've almost forgotten about the sprites I've made for my TFR avatar.
Here's what I've got so far, the full-rex super move thing is still a heavy WIP obviously:




I also have the idea of his stage being a dinosaur museum with this skeleton as the centerpiece of the background:


Being a dinosaur, Sketchasaur would be a heavy-hitting, slow character.

Finish this PLEASE! I so love this character!

Help, I literally turned 7 years old and lost my shit checking this sheet out. It's a dinosaur that turns into OTHER dinosaurs and his super attacks have him becoming a GIANT DINOSAUR.

Those motion blurs are what fuels my envy of all you guys. ;__;



What's his Midnight Moe though? I honestly expected the girl protagonist with the giant hair from Dinosaur King, lol

His midnight Moe at the moment is a female versioni of the movie Alan Grant from Jurassic Park. I probably could/should turn it into Zoe from Dinosaur King (actually the arcade game that re-kindled my interest in Dinosaurs and I've still got tons of the cards)

I'm thinking that his lose pose will have him reduce to a skeleton and fall apart like Dry Bones, and he'd get back up for the next round and get his skin and stuff back if there were a next round.

Also, apparently there are dinosaurs in Jojo's Bizarre adventure thanks to the stand "Scary Monsters" whose ability is to turn people into dinosaur slaves. But they're pretty much drawn to look like actual Dinosaurs (which won't be hard for me to draw that way) But I might go for a 1960s Godzilla/Gamera approach. who knows?
EDIT: here's a progress image of Sketchasaur's profile image:

Can I just say that this is one of the coolest characters I have ever seen? Also the palette double of Sketch reminds me of Agumon/Greymon. I doubt it would take much effort to make an edit it into one of the 2.

EDITecided to try my theory I was right :I (hope me editing your work just for fun was alright with you)

still in love with these.

i think gors brought this up way back when you originally made your walk cycle, but you should switch around the head positions so his head is turning with his body instead of turning with the forward-going foot; it'll look a lot more natural for his stature and body shape that way.

AH, yeah. I've yet to change that since he brought that up way back when. Thanks for reminding me, man.

I will try to make every one of my posts include sprite progress! here's more updates to the prof. img.


@ A.Alchemist: aha, fun fact about that: I used to make Digimon Battle Spirit sprite edits way back in the day. that Greymon/Agumon comment totally reminded me of that. haha

---

Tweaked the walk animation's head movement, it does look better this way. and it's fitting because he's kind of "waddley"

Also, I'm thinking that instead of having his back to the camera and being full realistic Dino, I'm gonna mix having a realistic-ish head with a more chubby, kaiju-esque body.

Midnight Moe is now Zoey from Dinosaur King. I haven't gotten around to making any more frames for this one, but I like how this sprite turned out, especially compared to the old MM.

What you've done so far is pretty damn solid!

For the big portrait, may I refer you to Chapter 28 onwards, Part 7, of Steel Ball Run? Diego Brando transforms into a Raptor and Dr. Ferdinand has a stand (Scary Monsters) which can turn things into dinosaurs, so they could help you stay in style.

Can't wait to see more!

Awwww wicked! I've been waiting to see if you'd make a TFR character. The design's great-but-simple and your Moe makes a lot of sense to boot! My only nitpick would be that the motion blur on the head bash and triceratops jab could arc could be cleaned up a bit. The motion blur of the bit-foot kick is a little closer to what I'm talking about. Other than that...can't wait for you to finish these!

Yeah, I've been looking at some of the Dinos that are there, mostly the ones that are full dinosaur. and I've made a few adjustments here and there.
I might give 'im a more humanoid, muscly body like the humans in Jojo, but I'm also fond of how this has turned out so far:


@DDP: yeah, I've gotta fix up the smear on the Tricer-uppercut. it's definitely not the greatest, partially due to the fact that it was the first one that I made. aha

EDIT
I"ve updated the big sprite even further, and added it to the first post.

I really like this sprite, but the point of the Moe is that either your character is dressed as the character in question, or the character in question still resembles your character after the transformation (see Chris', Viper's, my own, etc.). Unfortunately, we aren't looking to have the actual characters themselves in the game.

(I don't think I said the word "character" enough)

Hmm.. I think I've fixed it. ahaha
