Re-working: Final Fantasy IV customs

[Ultimecia]

I'm planning to redo some of my Final Fantasy IV stuff (blame it on FF After Years)

I'm planning to do two sets: one based off the SNes/GBA version of the characters and another on DS/Yoshitaka Amano's style.
My old sprites are based on the SNes/GBA and I want to improve them:



One thing that annoys me is Kain's wing, I'm going to work on it. Yang's skin contrast is going to be improved. Any more ideas?

On the DS/YA version, I did one Cecil sprite:



Got all the other guys to go

C+C is appreciated.

Are you going to the after years characters?

[Ultimecia]

Depends, not on my immediate plans but nothing otherwise.

[Davy Jones]

yeah, I don't know how old they are (older than 2005?), but I know about these sprites long time ago from a material side for rm2k/2k3. Very good stuff, nothing to criticize =)

[Ultimecia]

Yup, that's exactly that material, Davias. I was known as MRP back then (my initials, not too much creative), some stuff are from 2000 to 2005, if I remember well (lost the site backup ages ago)

[Gors]

I don't know, but if you could make the title smoother, it'd be very nice. That's more of a cosmetic change, but

Do you mean the sheets on your deviantart-account? I saw that most of the links doesn't work =(

[Ultimecia]

Just checked all of them are working
Sometimes DA can be a pain in the side, you have to reload the page to see

[Davy Jones]

Ah, I see. Sometimes DA let me have a look at the sheets, sometimes not =/
But good to know they are not gone, awesome work =)

[Ultimecia]

Nothing is really gone on the internet XD
There is one new sheet after I left RPGMake scene, but just one, the Shadow Hearts.

Worked a bit on Kid Rydia, Edge and Yang. Namely, the hair
Also used Yang's colors from After Years to correct his skin tone



What you guys think? If it's good enough, I'm moving to remaking Kain and both Cecils (SNes version first)

[GrooveMan.exe]

Well Yang's hair goes above his head on the side-to-side frames, but stops exactly at the top of his head on the front/back frames. It's also more likely to curve than swing diagonally on that back pose.

[Ton]

What style are you shooting for? FF4 battle? Ff6?

[Ultimecia]

A bit of necromancy. I couldn't fix the sprites because I had left them on another computer

It's RPGMaker, Ton. But it can quite fit into FF4 battle with a color downgrade or even FF4 After Years



Fixed Yang's hair and made him a bit bulkier

Any observations on Rosa before I start remaking Cecil and Kain?

[Ton]

I think Yang's arms could stand to be a bit thicker while his hair could be a bit thinner.

[Ultimecia]

Yang's hair a bit thinner now.
If I make his arms thicker it looks like strange (I tried)



Anything else on Rydia/Edge/Yang/Rosa?
(Yeah, I know she uses pink, but in battle in FF4 SNes/PS1/GBA she uses green. I'm going to do a pink version too soon, with the Amano's version)
