King K.Rool

That's cool. I just don't think he should look like http://www.spriters-resource.com/gameboy.../sheet/166 too much. It's way too cartoony. We should take his design and make it match Brawl's style. Like they did with Bowser.

I think we should base him more on the DKC version (and art) than King of Swing.

What's wrong with letting him have his modern look?

Also Arthur I like the body but the head really needs work

I agree that the majority of the head needs work, but I actually think it would make sense that K Rool doesn't look quite straight in front of him. I think the eyes are just hilarious.

it isn't the best outline but ehh its a start i guess.

the biggest problem i keep running into while trying to outline him was the fact that i keep making him too damn big!

That idle is painfully boring. It's okay for a start but it should not be used for a final idle sprite at all.

[Ton]

Maybe a boxing-esque pose?

i know i was planning on using his idle from dkc but it looks terrible in this style. maybe his boxing but then again we could make up a more original stance for him.
if every one can mind my terrible stick drawings how about one of theses poses.
my personal fav is b

I like C. It makes him look way different from Bowser.

What if we gave him an old-timey "fisticuffs" idle like you might see in an old Popeye cartoon? Something like this;



And he kind of "hops" as his legs swap positions. If I can find an animation I'll post it.

That's TOO cartoony. Nobody will take him seriously.

[Ton]

Well he IS a pretty dopey villain...

[Alpha Six]

Well still!

I dunno. I'm no expert, I guess it isn't really up to me :B

[Ton]

Well, me neither. It's just an idea.

[Chaoxys]

I have to admit, I kinda like the fisticuffs idea, but maybe have it as a seconday idle he switches to every few seconds or so.

[Koopaul]

I think a regular kind of idle will be fine. His body type would make that fisticuffs thing kinda difficult. Also remember to use these as references.
