Natis' Sprites - Natis - 06-23-2015 Hey Everyone!  It's been a long time since I posted anything, but I wanted to post some sprites and get some (hopefully constructive) criticism. I had been PMing SmithyGCN a long while ago when I originally got this idea for a game, and he was giving me some pointers on animation for the main character. About a month into trying to make the main character's animations look good, I got buried with work responsibilities and didn't have much time to work on sprites. 6 months later, I'm back at it! But only one tiny detail... I lost the USB drive that I was using and it had all my work on it. Luckily, I still have the animations that I was throwing at Smithy, and I will post them here for C+C as well. But in the mean time, I decided to make some of the NPCs while I scavenge my house, car, work, and other whereabouts looking for this darn USB.   I have been working on the storyline and character designs throughout the months, so I guess I never really stopped 100%. I like where the story went, and am very pleased with it. That motivated me to hop back on this project. EDIT: Found the USB! Hopefully that speeds some stuff up! Going the edit this post to make it more organized. The design is supposed to be a futuristic/apocalyptic cowboy kind of deal.  I'm trying to make it stylized and have a 4 color limit (and I cheated and have been using the black outline) for the characters. Characters: "The Law" (Main Character) Concept(s): [1] Sprite Sheet Animations: "The Dragon" (Techy Character) Concept(s) [1] Sprite: (Green Character) Notes: Need to fix "Dragon Mask" readability. "The Canon" (Heavy Weapons Character) Concept(s) [1] Sprite: (Purple Character) Note: There is something that I don't like, and I can't figure it out. Maybe looks too manly? I didn't do a great job translating the concept design to the sprite. Also too boring of a design? Perhaps redesign? Anyway, that's is all I have right now. I'd love to hear everyone's feedback! . RE: Natis' Sprites - Bombshell93 - 06-23-2015 han solo looks good with a cape RE: Natis' Sprites - Ton - 06-24-2015 I can't make out the green character's face or what is in his hand, and the purple character looks pretty boring. I think they both need some work and readability. RE: Natis' Sprites - Natis - 07-07-2015 Readability was one of the main things I was worried about. And uh... he doesn't have anything in his hands... the green things are his hands... His arms look a little broken, huh? I'll it to the fix it list. On the bright side... I FOUND THE USB!   I went ahead and updated/editted the first post too. I added the concept drawings (totally didn't copy Smash Bros poses, guys. Sakurai actually stole my concepts during the beginning of development.) so now you can kinda see what I was thinking and help push the readability in the right direction.
