Ridge's WIP M&L:BIS Sheets

[Ridge Troopa]

Note to self: Try to post something at least every month so there will be no bumpage.

Getting back on track, I have some small info to throw out there. First is that, due to idiots stealing/editing/completely destroying my unfinished work, I've had to resort to taking down my WIP sheets everywhere. At least, that is to say, those that are of usable-quality sprites. You will find that the first post currently contains no custom sheets. I'm in the process of uploading .JPEG quality images to replace them. It's sad, and I'd rather not have to post JPEG quality images on a SPRITING FORUM for crying out loud, but oh well. If anyone wants to see anything in .PNG, just drop me a message somewhere and I'll be glad to show you. Sorry about that.

Related to that is the addition of a disclaimer to the first post. It's rather insignificant here since nobody cares on a spriting forum, but due to deviantART removing my work because of "copyright infringement" I should add it here. (While I'm somewhat flattered that staff there think my work is official game art, it's ridiculous that they don't do their homework and look up the game... damn...)
Although it's not too surprising given that deviantART's gone to utter shit anyway. (If dA removes my crap again, the disclaimers can kiss my ass...)

Now I'm tired of typing so here's a new animation. Try to keep your pants on if possible.

*Screams*

Ridge you need to ask to work as a spriter for the next M&L game.

[Ton]

Whoa, Iggy is amazing. I've missed your stuff so much!

[Solink]

I could look at this animation for hours. :>
It's so fluid and cartoony. I love it!

[A.J. Nitro]

When I saw that there was a new post for this thread, I was expecting a bump, but then I remembered that this was locked at one point. So that's when I realized this was something amazing.

[Saltonara]

Great stuff, man. Glad to see you back.

[Snivy101]

You gotta love Iggy. Keep up the awesome work!

[Chaoxys]

I love it, although something about the stomach looks off to me, not sure why though. I think that it may be that his tallness/lankiness make it seem like he should be leaning forward a bit more, to the point where his stomach outline wouldn't be a straight line. Then again, thats just a personal thing and doesn't effect the actual quality, so don't worry about it.

[Ridge Troopa]

Chaoxys, you'll be happy to find that Iggy's belly has been fixed. You weren't the only one with this concern, and I'm sure others will agree that it's much better than how flat it used to be.
His hair also got some recoloring near the tips - this was something that I'd have done initially, however I forgot about it somehow. All better now though.


A few of you have already seen this on deviantART, but Larry's got a new animation as well. It's from Super Mario World, if you don't recognize it. I'm aware that the objects he throws/rolls may be balls of some sort, but SMW graphics are horribad and hard to interpret... I find fireballs more fitting. (I'll be adding star/bowling balls to the sheet to be used in place of the fireballs to eliminate that complaint, too.)
Iggy will eventually be getting this animation as well. In due time.

I'm so glad you're doing things regularly now. It makes me happy. Mostly in the pants.
Are the other characters going to have SMW inspired attacks? Dummies for Wendy and Lemmy? That's all I can think of, haha.

Way ahead of you there, haha. I made a static pose of Lemmy's dummy just yesterday, along with a yellow pipe.
I'm going to include all of their animations and attacks from any game they've been featured in. Seems like a lot, but when you think of it... That means Larry doesn't have that many more battle animations to go.

[Ton]

Wow, that is a lot. Ludwig will be easy at least. He doesn't have much going on. I think Wendy is going to be really interesting.

[Garamonde]

Words do not describe your work. Seriously.

[BynineB]

First of all, holy shit.

Secondly, will be these featured in a game of some sort? Just having them, beautiful as they are, seems like such a waste. Maybe some dude's making a M&L RPG flash or something.

I need to confess you my love... someday.
Waiting for more of your aweosme work is just too painful, please, show us something more soon
