The body still looks off, though.

I think you're misinterpreting what I mean by "stiff." The pose is uninteresting, it could be a lot better.

Regardless; there's way too much detail in the sprite, causing it to clash with the rest of the style. The palette could also use improvement. I've got free time so I'll take a crack at it.

It's still too detailed but I REALLY like that new head :]

I dropped a good 50% of detail from the previous sprites. In this case, it's not how many details you add, it's how you put those details in using the colors you have at your disposal.

Either way, this guy is gonna be ass to animate, hahaha

This... this is amazing! Seriously! I like the new pose, it gives him a more demonic feel to him. As for the head, hes definitely more bad-ass now! Yeah, as Solink said, it is too detailed, but... just... wow!

It looks great even when you put it next to this project's Link. I think it would fit in well just like that.

While the pose looks better, its your is still very confusing to look at. Like I personally couldn't see the (our) left hand. And I don't remeber Ganondorf wearing purple. Besides that its a defiantly an improvement. Reminds me a lot of a Digimon Battle Spirit and One Piece DS game styled sprites.

Oh my god. I love that sprite. Lol so much better than the old ones.

His armor has a purple hue. I just brought it out more so the sprite doesn't look dull and so it mixes in well with the rest of the sprites. ;P

Can we please, for the love of god, use his clothes from OoT/Melee? There's no reason not to. Your all just making it harder for yourselves by literally using his most detailed costumes ever. The one in Melee was simple and good looking.

If I remember it right atleast.

EDIT: Okay, just re-looked. His Melee costume isn't SO simple, but it generally looks better since is doesn't needlessly use all those yellow lines everywhere.


BTW~ Excellent pose Tyvon!

That's pretty awesome, but I think his torso looks a little smooshed. Pretty cool though. Great job!
Maybe we should tone down the purple though?

I've already tried-- anything darker than that palette makes the sprite look dull and fit in badly with the sprite style. :C

Also Iceman, I'm pretty sure OOT G-dorf is an alternate costume. I'm not 100% sure so don't quote me on that.

Yeah, it's his alt.

Okay, I think I removed most of the un-necessary detail from him.
