Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - DecaTilde - 05-05-2014 Sousanator did well on ripping Brian Griffin for SDB. Well, I'm planning to do a modern-day remake. I managed to use Simplector to trace what Brian looks like today and IsoPix to pixelate the traced vectors. Here's what turned out so far. And I'm using a different image hosting website now, because Imageshack will no longer allow free uploads, even through their ".us" client. However, I don't mind a little help sprucing this idle sprite up. RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - E-Man - 05-05-2014 I see you doing a lot of custom Family Guy sprites lately. While that is fine and all, may I suggest that you branch out to other franchises and create characters and objects from those? If you keep creating sprites from the same TV show/game again and again, you're limiting yourself greatly and you'll end up becoming tired of it very easily. RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - Paladin - 05-05-2014 Yes, the sprites are also very simple in style. You could argue that the animation is the challenge, but if you're imitating a style from a game, you can pretty much copy those animations. Still, LDEJRuff should be allowed to do as he pleases. RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - E-Man - 05-05-2014 I understand that, Paladin. There's nothing I could do to stop Ruff from spiriting in this style, but, at the same time, I honestly want to watch him grow as a spriter. Besides, if he gives at least another character from a different franchise a try, there could be a chance that he finds it as a challenging, enjoyable experience. RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - Paladin - 05-05-2014 Yes, I definitely agree. It's much better spriting custom sprites and experimenting with styles than imitating what's already been done. RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - Ton - 05-05-2014 Meh, let him do what he wants. He'll move on when he's sick of the style. For now, let's give him feedback on what he's showing us. RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - Gors - 05-05-2014 Drawing on a same style as the other person is not inherently bad. The purpose of those sprites is not to be of full artistic value; its more about replicating the show's visuals into pixelart. I think that you should use some antialias to make the lines as smooth as the source style, i will get onto it when im on my pc RE: Brian Griffin (FGDB remake) - Kelvin - 05-05-2014 I just checked those apps you mentioned and... you did these on a touchscreen? Dang. I admire your patience.
