[water dog]

the back of his head seems flat and the colors are so uhh nonsaturated that it hurts the readability a lot but other than that the lone art and animations are hella solid dude : -)

In most anime, hair does actually move. Only in the most extreme cases does it not.

yes we get it you love anime you don't need to defend it in every single joke that somebody makes

I'm simply pointing out the fact that the hair should move.

[triptych]

right because jake himself didn't do that already

and then two other posters in this thread after that

but then you were like "hey the hairs not moving"*doesnt read thread*

It doesn't matter. Move along.

These sprites look great, Jake- I'm really digging the shooting animation. Keep it up.

[Cobalt Blue]

my hair never waves around when i walk, even when i got plenty of it. you know why? because if the hair moves is just to exagerate and make more noticeable the walk cycle's steps. same thing why the head moves left and right.

if it moves or not its fucking optional and has nothing to do with reality. NOW move on,

[Nystre]

Metaru is right-- head swaying/hair movement is actually unrealistic. Our head is typically kept very still while walking due to our vision being focused on something in particular. The only time our hair might move is if we were running, and if we wanted our head to sway involuntarily we would have to be running very very ferociously. Even then, it's hardly possible to run fast enough that you'd actually lose control of your head, even if you were running in a panic you'd still be intensely focused on where you're going.

That said, in animation, it is not incorrect to make the head sway as such. It can add a lot of character to an animation. I tried to do so here and didn't exactly do a spectacular job, if the critical response I've been getting from various places is to be trusted. The movement of the hair was not made obvious enough, so I will mess around with it more.

[Rosencrantz]

The only thing that's bothering me is how stiff the legs are
but Metaru already mentioned that and you've already noted it so yeah


other than that, they're pretty cool sprites~

I read the thread, though I was pointing out that the explanation for why it doesn't does not hold up.

ANYWAY MOVING ON FROM HAIR.

[Nystre]

jesus fucking christ kid

it was a god damn joke I wasn't making fun of your animes, I even like anime myself

My "explanation" was a joke fuckin' hell

this is why everyone hates anime fans

[Cobalt Blue]

actually this needs more hair to be more 'nystre'

[Nystre]

I actually forgot that Ravan always had a little hair fluff thing on the back of his head, which was added years ago because Chad made the exact same comment about the back of his head being flat. Lmfao

[Cobalt Blue]

[Nystre]

I'm busy making sprites for MORE IMPORTANT THINGS

AND I'M NOT ALLOWED TO SHOW SAID SPRITES

I will get back on these whenever convenient rrrrgh
