Sonic Generations' Sonics - Heckle - 04-18-2012
Ok, so this is a game I've been enjoying far more than I should, and I've been wanting to try and get back into this spriting thing for a while, so I figured I'd give this a shot; Sonic Generations' Sonics in a kinda classic 2D style - Sonic 3ish. It certainly isn't perfect, but I like what I got. I may animate it. Maybe. Unlikely, but who knows?

Anyways, there it is. Any advice etc would be rather nice.

I kinda like them this way You know... you can really do it good
RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - Gors - 04-19-2012
tall sonic is kinda unbalanced, place his head a little forward. also I'd avoid using selout that much, it makes your work noisy and ugly.
RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - Heckle - 06-06-2012
I'm aware this is a fairly huge bump but oh well.
Comment noted about the head, that's a fairly easy fix. The selout not so much. How exactly do you recommend I use it less? I'm not sure how it should be cleaned up.
RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - ~Axis~ - 06-06-2012
Modern Sonic's torso looks a bit flat. Classic sonic's head is a bit jaggy as well. Other than that, they look a-okay to me.
RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - Heckle - 06-07-2012
Looks flat? Do you mean the skin coloured part?
And yeah, the head is kinda jaggy, looking at it, let's see if I can't have a go at smoothing that out.
EDIT:
Better?

due to the background and other stuff, i am having trouble seeing tall sonic's right leg on the small scale sprite. try moving the hand(s) to make the legs more obvious
RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - Jamuk - 06-08-2012
When making backgrounds, use contrasting colours to make the sprite stand out. A yellow or orange would work here.

RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - ~Axis~ - 06-08-2012
The jaggy lines that classic sonic used to have are gone, but now, the top of his head is a single color. What I meant by implying that modern's chest was flat was that it isn't supposed to look like that. His torso is supposed to bulge out a little. His legs are a bit to long as well. Try balancing the length of his abdomen and his legs. His index finger look too big.

Fixed what you mentioned, except the height, which I honestly feel is accurate compared to Classic Sonic.
RE: Sonic Generations' Sonics - ~Axis~ - 06-09-2012
You're misunderstanding me. Modern's height is fine. It's just that his legs are a bit too long in comparison with his upper body. Shorten his legs, and pull his upper body down a bit (while keeping his height). The sprites look awesome now though.
