Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - tgb621 - 02-08-2011 So, now that you're done with that sigh of pain that *someone* is doing a MC KoRL, please halp me with this. I know it CAN be improved, but I don't exactly know how. Yet. And I will add more views soon. The King is 100% custom, with link from Barubary's Link rip. So how is it? And the palette i'm using is Xiphirx's from ZGFC. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - Diddy - 02-08-2011 The sail doesn't look shaded enough. I think the back part should have more, darker shading. The mast could also use some shading. Both the sail and mast look a little pillow shaded because the outline is so light. Link has some black on his outline. Even the outline on his hair is a very dark yellow. Try darkening the outline. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - tgb621 - 02-09-2011 Thanks, I actually don't have any shading at all on the mast. I'll work on the sail and that when I have time. I should get around to making a side or back view later today. And I don't think I'll change link- That's how he was in the game. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - Hoeloe - 02-09-2011 He wasn't asking you to change Link. He was asking you to look at how Link is shaded and try and replicate it. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - Cobalt Blue - 02-09-2011 thats a nice looking rectangle. you're going to need way more than that to actually make it look like the sailboat from windwaker, because right now it has zero readbility as such. besdies that please never use that horrible magenta colors as the background of your sprites because it totally ruins your perception of color. use a grey or a more neutral color for the sake of your and our retinas. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - tgb621 - 02-09-2011 Thank you for all of your criticism, it is greatly appreciated. And now I see what you mean by "link has some black on him" so thank you. Here is a new version. I might get around to a side view later tonight. I made the ship more "elliptical" I changed the colors of the sail, giving it a darker outline and better shading I did the same to the mast RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - Hoeloe - 02-10-2011 The sail is looking better. The Red Lion's face will probably need redoing though, he has no outline and his eyes are far too close together. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - LeleleleMAXIMUM - 02-10-2011 the main problem i see is you're spriting it for top-down style. MC isn't really top down, if you pay attention to the sprites and backgrounds. it's a fake perspective thing type. I suggest do something similar to this view: RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - tgb621 - 02-10-2011 Thanks, it was looking a little top-down-ish. What I did here is I took the original and orbited it to get more of a 3/4 view. I then made this on top of that, and I think it turned out alright. I left the sail the same, though. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - BynineB - 02-10-2011 Something is horribly wrong with the Red Lion boat.. not only are his whiskers pillow shaded, he looks like a duck. RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - tgb621 - 02-10-2011 Yeah, I thought that too. I'll get on to it tomorrow. EDIT: (no rape face here) RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - tgb621 - 02-15-2011 Well, I started working on the side view and all I have is just a basic outline. So I was wondering if it was close to the right perspective. Off to read xkcd! </poorly disguised bump> RE: Minish Cap King o' Red Lions *Custom* - Hoeloe - 02-16-2011 Head and main boat are in different perspectives. Try it all tilted slightly towards the screen.
