FF7 Spriting project

[liam543]

I thought to start up a project to sprite the enemies and characters from Final fantasy 7 into FF custom styled sprites.

Anyone who wants to help with the project use this site as your reference to enemies (you'll have to navigate the side panel to get to the other enemies, bosses, etc)
http://ffonline.com/ff7/enemies-ab.htm

STYLE - Custom
SHADING - All types except 8-bit
SIZE - Size chart coming soon (any help appreciated)

All help appreciated

No no.
This person is starting to rip the sprites,
and simply asking anyone if they'd like to join in.


Carry on.

Yet again it's the password reason but also it's 50am so probably a few hours I have got something that's a wip so I will put it up then

This is an in battle base of the attack sqaud soldier (Extrta shading coming soon!) as you can see it is a WIP
Other poses will be attacks (Smoke Bullet, Grenade, Machine Gun)
Overworld sprites (FF6 style or custom style still haven't decided)
Hurt and death poses

That's not a bad start, might need to mess with the colours though.
And if you're 11, well I'm impressed.

[liam543]

I used the conditional. Have you done any progress/ cleaned up your work or done any more?

[liam543]

I am having trouble with shading... never been that good at it

EDIT: Here is the colour scheme i want but I suck bad at shading as said above


Can someone please give me some pointers on shading?

[Chris2Balls [:B]]

Now the problem you're encountering is that FF7 is a 3D game where there aren't many textures, plus the lighting is quite subdued.
The models are primitive, so you'll need to use some of your own imagination. For now your mouse/eye coordination and accuracy needs a bit of practice, so get your paper out and start sketching, and especially from a model!
Ah, I've made an edit, because I could see a few problems you didn't sort out:

For shading, think where the light comes from: is it strong? Weak? Close? Far? What colour? Are there several? etc.
Draw the lightsource if necessary.
