Crits on link- the front and side poses are nice except for the eyes. They stare into my soul. The back pose is fine except the highlight on the hat needs to be rounder.
Crits on the octorock- fix the eye-bleeding colours, then I can actually bear to look at it enough to give some crits.

What do you suggest for the colors, because it was supposed to be bright and cheerful but I know I got it wrong

Oh no! I misspelled an obscure monster name! But anyway, start with some desaturation and contrast.

Read the tutorial for the style description. It actually says fully saturated. After that, please comment

Yeah, but they look bad. The tutorial is no excuse.

Ok, here are the new ones. I like them more please C+C.

@Black Boo: I wont be online friday saturday and sunday, but I will work hard for the rest of spring break. Remember, I call the floormaster, candlehead, cheep-cheep, and the crow.

The octoroc still needs to be a little darker & have more contrast. It's still quite painful to look at. In particular, add way more contrast to the eyes, and perhaps change the highlight colour on the regular skin, it still looks slightly 8-bit.

Uh....Azure, I thought you just claimed Deku Scrub. and while I was gone, someone on MFGG claimed Octorock. I'll compare your two. Also, it needs an outline color, and the colors need a LOT more contrast. I'll try and make a palette later.

Good to see some stuff got done.

Oh. Tuna. I'll fix the hat, but the eyes...well...I'll leave them for now.

Wewt. Got started on Nayru.

However, SGG and I talked...and we've come to a brick wall. The eyes are hard to get down, so I'm posting a test with Link and Nayru for what their eyes should look like.



I'm leaving this choice in your hands. Link A or B, and Nayru A or B.

definitely the bottom for both

Okay...I still need a few more votes. So far after asking some friends, the score's 0 to 5.

the bottom ones definitely

azure fox:
the octoroks just look like recolours
at the moment they are looking directly down and the rest are just rotations
I should be able to see the open mouth
redo the poses so I can (see the open mouth)

I'll make a basic Octorock model for you guys, mkay?

Anyway, bottom wins. So...I gotta fix up Link a bit.

Ok, I'm back so I will work on it.

@Black Boo: I looked at WolfMN's deku scrub, cant you tell its a completely different character. I think the name is an octorok.


And please try to post a pallette, I am having a hard time with the colors

@Explosionmakesboom: They are not rotations since they have different legs and different shading, but I need more C+C on the actual sprite thing and not the color choice.

Tsk tsk tsk! Someone hasn't played Ocarina of Time!

Anyway, I'll try to get the pallete out ASAP, well...at least for the basic colors.
