LuigiM9's Sprite Showcase

Except I'm already using blue around the eyes; it's just desaturated. I'll consider it, though.

[E-Man]

Blue around the eyes gives it a spookier look, I think. How's this?

You have a cool idea, but I fear that the blue around the eyes is a little distracting. Maybe a more desaturated blue might work?

Nes, your edit is really sweet, but it's unfortunately not really Partners in Time style. Things can't be shaded and detailed quite as... well as you've done it. The blue on the eyes, mostly above, is also kind of jarring as others have said.

Back to LuigiM9's sprite:



Boo's upper jaw is very defined from the side. You should set the rest of the mouth back a few pixels on yours to match that, right now your shape is too flat.
Also, if you aren't already, it would be helpful to keep the PiT Boo sprites next to yours as reference. That way you can really see the way things should look in this style.

My edit on the right. I already showed it to you, and you've used parts from it in your new one by now, but I may as well point out a few things that I feel still need work.
The gold part of the crown could use some shading/aa as it reaches the sides, and it would look nicer with a highlight somewhere.
The jewel itself seems under-detailed, I'd suggest finding another way to do the highlight and shade the faces so it looks at least somewhat shiny.
And the last tiny thing, he needs some aa on his underarms.

Really sorry for so much stuff in one post. My fault for not coming in here earlier.

The subcardinal pose is still a work in progress. I need to fix the shading, and I've been told the mouth could be better.

[Neweegee]

I think his mouth should be widened a bit.



The bottom sprites is what I changed. Also King Boo's eyesbrows or whatever that is above his eyes are shaped differently from what you had. More like a round W.

Looking good so far. The right side of the mouth and the tail area could use some better blending/aa. Shading on the tongue on the side and diagonal need some work too. Basically just make sure everything lines up vertically between views.

You're right about the eyebrows, but the middle brow peak shouldn't be that high. The mouth is just incorrect, sorry to be blunt - LM9's mouth is just fine.

gee i wonder who it is

[LuigiM9]

wow


This was for Mors. I wasn't sure how to approach the hands, so that's why I just used the Gnat Attack ones.

Is that supposed to be Miyamoto? If it is I didn't recognise him

[cheat-master30]

Looks more like Iwata, I think. Then again, it arguably looks a bit more Ralph from Wreck It Ralph, perhaps crossed with Tanasinn from VIP 5. But it's probably meant to be Iwata.

[LuigiM9]

it's miyamoto.

[cheat-master30]

Well, it doesn't really look much like him, so maybe you should work on the face a bit more...

[Chris2Balls [:B]]

Hope you don't mind, I edited your sprite. I used his Mii as a reference, along with a photo of him. It helped me think of his facial features in a simpler way.

Hope it helps!

Also if the hands could be posed each at first I thought it was please understand or his hands at his side like a bow
