Toes Sprite Dump - Thunder Toes - 06-01-2011
Rather than waste anymore space in the Reworkshop Thread, made a thread to dump in whatever I'm working on.
Samus to start things off:

i love this idea, but the proportions aren't quite that and i think the sprite could be more readable.
RE: Toes Sprite Dump - brandman1996 - 06-01-2011
Chris I think it's because he's trying to fit a super metroid style samus in the size of a metroid sprite. I think samus in ball form looks awkward and could use some work.
Oh, ps toes, your avatar freaks me out.
RE: Toes Sprite Dump - Chris2Balls [:B] - 06-01-2011
i would actually like to point out it's more like the sa-x than super metroid samus. besides, that's not an excuse for "fitting" the style: readability nor proportions were an issue in super metroid or metroid fusion sprites. tia
looking forward to more, headcrab!

I never said it was, just sayin. I would like to see more metroid themed sprites around here though.

It seems pretty readable to me.
RE: Toes Sprite Dump - Chris2Balls [:B] - 06-01-2011
i had problems distinguishing the hand from the chest, and the arm from the head: these elements kind of melt and lose themselves into each other.
here's an edit to try to improve readability:

The outline is so thick and dark that I don't know how well is this sprite going to work against Metroid's usually dark backgrounds.
RE: Toes Sprite Dump - Thunder Toes - 06-01-2011
Think this works better, thanks for the help

Couldn't help but notice that the light source on Samus's ball form shifts with each frame.
The lack of outline is a bit annoying as well, but that could be just me.

That's how the ball is in Fusion, regardless the ones posted are outdated by now
