View Full Version : Jace's Sprites
Emberman's face looks more humane than the MM series, otherwise he's the best.
Glacier is majorly improved, The feet look broken however. He must've twisted more ankles than he has for that.
Ecto... Make the chest smaller and 'gaslike' like his lower body?
The first guy, who is he, and why is he not detailed enough to understand what he is?
And pulseman still gives no sign of pulsing, pulsar, elec, etc. :<
Overall, much better than the last time, but you still didn't heed my new comments about pulseman D:
Fluttershy
21-10-09, 22:19
Have you seen Stone Man? His feet are almost EXACTLY the same as Glacials.
As I said, still working on Ecto. Not making his body gaslike tho.
The first guy is a new Mirror Man. Working on him a bit still as well.
And Pulse Man WILL when I sheet him. Just wait.
Edit- Oh, and I redid Demo Man already.

no, and don't plan on doing so. Jace, you're missing the point- You could get correct what capcom screwed up on :P
Thats why I suggested what I did, because you said you were.
Er, He's got even less 'shine' 'reflection' or 'mirror' than pulseman has pulse, etc.
Will you change his design, or give him pulselike attacks?
I say Demo should be more like a full robot body, like napalm, blizz, magma men, etc.

lern, you do realize that you'd be much easier to heed instruction from if you actually sprited.
That would certainly help your disposition.
Jace, I'm not an expert on 8 bit sprites, heck I've never worked with them. On first glace they look good. Which is ideal. However aside from the normal awkwardness I've seen with 8 bit sprites, I can't really pick out a problem. Everything looks in style. I'm not sure as to colour limits, but yeah. They look good to me.

I'll get back to those after I have my RPG Demo tested and out. But, since I need opinions I need to know if these Overworld sprites on the right look like they'd work for my Malice char on the left.
http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/3143/malicecomparison.png
I'm still new to this Overworld sprite style. Will get better at it eventually.
Edit- And yes, my RPG version of Malice will be a bit different. Doesn't need to look EXACTLY like my ZX version of him. Just mostly.
Edit V2-http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/3143/malicecomparison.png
Changed the helm a bit to be a bit more like the left ZX version and to look less like an armored Frieza. XD
OH MY GOD HIS HEAD LOOKS LIKE A JAWBREAKER AND HIS BODY IS A STRAW CUT OFF TO BE SMALLER THAN A TOOTH.
I'm sorry, was that offensive?(Did it sound that way*)
Fluttershy
10-01-10, 16:17
Yes, it did actually. And it isn't my fault it's how the style is.
Here is an example. http://www.team-captin.com/resources/Random_RPG_Maker_VX_charas.gif
I need to make it that way so it'll fit the RPG Maker program and not clash with the tileset.
They're chibi, too, but yours has a head larger than an oven and a body smaller than a muffin.
Y'know lern, it's the damnedest thing, but when one puts on a helmet, one's head appears to be larger.
Fluttershy
10-01-10, 16:42
The Helmet was also EDITED from an official sprite that came with the program. I didn't add any size to it, just color and design.

Well, after looking at some work on RPM I decided to go back and work on those RM's already. And since I can double post if I have a major update... here we go! This is Demo Man(Now named Explode Man)'s final design. I decided to design him after one of those Dynamate Plunger boxes you see in the Wily E. Coyote cartoons.
http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/2166/demoman4.png
All he's missing is his Landing sprite, Intro sequence, and his dynamite.
And I just made a Mock-Up of what Explode Man's stage will be like. I know I suck at making Tile Sets but at least you all get his stage's Theme right?

I can't stop laughing. Evil roadrunners... that's going to be funny.
i think you said you were going for a desert, but it looks like a Quarry. And since this is a demolitions robot, that looks perfect.

11-01-10, 03:50
I think the problem is you tried to throw too much information into the image, like you were trying to copy the show with the location. Which isn't bad, but you tried to incorporate too many elements.
Fluttershy
11-01-10, 04:22
I'm still not done with it. I'm going to be editting it so it looks LESS like a direct ripoff. Like making it dusk, might edit the platform/tunnel on the left(I only did that to make a starting platform. Won't see tunnels again). But yea... I get what you're saying Turp. Will work on it.
Jace, two minor problems with explo.
First, in his larger sprite, his leg's lowest line is too wide.
Second, the 'wires' are all weird and don't seem to fit this way. Could I try and fix them for you?

the left(his left) leg looks off. what i would do to fix it is to copy the right(his right) leg flip it horizontally and paste it where the left leg was.

Lern, the big sprite is only there to show his designs. That's it. Not going to actually USE it.
As for the wires, be my guest. If you think you can actually make it better go a head and try. But just so you know if Idon't like it I'm keeping the original.
Xearez, on which frame? Cause on most of the frames I ALREADY did that, but moved it a bit so it didn't look like he was standing straight up. He's actually leaning on his right(out left) leg abit which is why it looks like that.

this is what im talking about and the one with the circle around the whole body is the one i fixed.
Jace Edit- Removed your attachment cause I hate it when people edit my sprites to "Help me" without asking first. It's not helping me improve that's just being a jackass.

I don't give a flying shit. I HATE it when people take my sprites and edit them without asking. I've said this MULTIPLE times in this thread and I got what he meant to begin with. He just wanted me to mirror the legs and I already said I'm not doing that. Even if it's easier to show it's common courtesy to ASK first.

Agreed, he meant no harm. He just felt that it's simpler, less of a hassle to show it rather than explain by text, because it'd take more time and..it might lead to some miscommunication.
On the side note.

Okay excuse if Im blind or something but HELLO! He said that permission should have been asked for before Xearez went off and edited his sprites. So how about you guys stop criticizing him about him getting annoyed because he has every right to be.
Im sure Jace would have appreciated if he perhaps send him a pm of what he wanted to show, BUT he went off and posted in HIS sprite thread with an a UNAUTHORIZED edit of HIS Sprite. And dont say it makes no difference because I often did the same, but I had enough courtesy to do with within the confines of a PRIVATE message so only HIS effort rather than mine on HIS spritework is viewed by other members.

I say, overreaction. But still justified (not completely!)
Both of you are wrong, seriously... Xearez meant to help you, but he should've asked before doing so. And you, Jace, you shouldn't get so pissed. He meant to help and has done no harm. Plus it's unhealthy bro. Ree Lax man.
And I disagree with you, Crimson. You're simply taking the side of Jace because he's Jace. Don't do that...
So let's all be a happy family and forget about it.

Correction. I used to sprite, so I would be just as upset if anyone (let say you) were to just post an edit of a sprite of my mine without my permission, even if it was to show me what to fix. As I mentioned before I have done what Xearez had done, but only through pms so I had received feedback from him about his OWN sprites rather than other people criticizing Jace over what someone elses edit of his sprite contained or lacked.
So no, I am not defending Jace because he is Jace, and rather than assuming such, I say you should consider all other alternatives why I may have a certain standpoint.
All Im saying is Xearez could have edited but under these two conditions
1. He should Have asked permission first, its common courtesy since its NOT PD
2. Without permission or not, he could have made it a private matter between Jace and himself, so it results in Jace being able to improve his sprite by his own means rather have other people interfere and comment abotu a sprite in HIS sprite thread of a sprite of his creation which however was edited by another spriter.

13-01-10, 03:10
Alright, look, I may have overreacted but all my points still stand. I know I've said it multiple times in my thread that I hate it when people take non PD sprites and edit them even if it's to help perfect how they look. But it's not just that this time, it's the REASON he did it. All he wanted me to do was mirror his left leg and use it as his right leg and I already explained why I didn't want to do that and Xearez completely ignored me THEN edited it against my permission. THAT, is what really set me off. So, I apologize for overreacting but I still feel what I said was justified. Now please, don't keep going on about this in my thread. If you STILL want to argue with me do it in a PM but know that I won't be changing my mind.

13-01-10, 03:43
im not really sure why anyone should be angry, nobody's stealing, nobody's using them without permission, they're just saving a shitload of time
but whatever, i wont turn this into a debate. as much as i'd love to, somebody's going to get pissy
Wow... what did I miss? Apparently, I missed everything... oh well... Anyway, yeah...

I've thought of answering to CH. But this post pretty much tells us that I wasn't wrong. I'm glad you know that you were overreacting. I'm not really going to go on, as I hadn't seen you tell Xearez about not wanting to mirror it. That's my fault, but I wasn't taking any side, fortunately.
But as I've said. CH, I could go on and debate with you, bro. But you do know that you were extremely on Jace's side. Anyway, this is done. No need to go on with that.
spam, anyone?

I see a problem with the right leg, look better. It doesn't look right no matter how many times I look at it. A few pixel changes would do the job though.
Fluttershy
13-01-10, 21:37
Then tell me how to fix it without mirroring it cause I REALLY don't want to do that.
Btw, enough of bringing up what happened. Xearez and I already settled everything so don't continue on.
Other than that I'm going to start working on my next RM here in a sec. Gizmo Girl(Woman just didn't sound right). Gizmo will be replacing my Sand Woman.

To begin with, mirroring it would make him look atrociously dumb.
I'm not sure yet.
Just try making his leg look more similar to the left one for now as his stance seems to be quite a neutral one.
Unless it is supposed to be like Coldman's (http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/files/Classic/RNF/Boss/StageBoss/rnfColdman.gif).
If it doesn't look right, we'll try something else. Let's do it the Trial and Error way, my friend.
You could always, instead of straightening the leg vertically, slant it more to be diagonal instead >.>
I don't see how since I incorporated pretty much every design idea from SB in there. Might not see most of it very well since it's all condensed but it's there. Anyway, I've figured out how to get a mane in there so here it is. And I added a little diagram showing all the design's I've incorporated from SB at the bottom.
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/3046/modelsbjace.png (http://img200.imageshack.us/i/modelsbjace.png/)
ok you already mentioned knee guards, i would expand the chest a bit i would make the crotch cover a little of the thighs and come over the legs in width, i would also try to darken the armor a bit turn the purple hair into the mane if thats ok and take out the boots and put claws
Fluttershy
15-01-10, 22:09
Ok, why did you go back to that sprite? Cause I'm not working on that anytime soon. As for the rest of your suggestions, No. Cause you never read the statement of WHAT I ALREADY HAD PLANNED for it. No claws(even on the boots) cause those'll be in the attacks only, the thighs and crotch armor are staying how they are cause that's the style they're supposed to be in and it'd look really stupid to have it expand onto the thighs. Armor isn't being darkened cause I already used an official ZX pallete for everything. And the hair stays cause that's my characters staple. His purple hair always shows. Besides, the mane is already IN the sprite. It's just much smaller.
But if you want to help crit stuff of mine my 8-bit sprites need it more right now since I'm actually WORKING on them.
You're just not having any luck with the criticism, are you? Anyway, yeah...
I see no problems with the sprites, but then again, my opinions don't count for much...

the colours are pretty awful
Rabid_Scotty92
23-02-10, 02:57
Add a black pixel to the top of his left leg. (Note HIS left.) Put it on the inside, towards the non-existent crotch. I'm sort of debating mentally if he should have a crotch or not, but that is more to your design than to actually fixing the leg.
EDIT: Should probably have clarified that I'm referring to Explode Man. Someone else asked if his stance was supposed to be similar to Cold Man's; if this is the case, then he's need a crotch to make it look right. Legs sticking out of a box can't do a Cold Man stance, mostly due to a lack of hips.

19-08-10, 03:54
Oh hey look. A new sprite! So, I need help with crit. I'm trying to get used to this sprite style(Draglade on the DS) for a project I've been working on for awhile. So help?

It looks good. I think hand sticking out needs a little modification. It looks like she has her hand flat on something. I'm assuming that would be a fighting stance. But, yeah. That's pretty awesome.

20-08-10, 03:08
Jace, your sprite, is the best sprite I have ever seen. In fact, it is so good, I am going to never sprite again because I know that I can never make something that will surpass it's amazingness.
Nah, I'm just fucking with you, I agree with DSS as well

Well, it's been awhile. Now, just so people know. No, I'm not ignoring crit, it's just hard for me to go back and perfect things after I decide I'm not going to use it afterall. THIS however, I probably will use at some point. It's my entry for Kaly's contest and to get crit I'm posting it here.

Yes, that's a joke weapon for Bass. And yes, that is what you think it is.
Mega's weapon(and the one Nemo is using in that attack sprite) is dubbed Bubble Gatling. Just an FYI
heh. I like bass's weapon. Anyway... the sprites themselves look good. The colors for Megaman and Bass don't exactly look all that good though. But... never stopped anyone before.

So... yea...
[fish in space]
05-02-11, 06:12
the flaming sword looks odd, mainly because it has motion blur when the rest look stationary and the motion blur looks tacked on. just adding flames rising from it would look better. the rest are pretty nice.
I agree with fish, the fire looks more like an orange curtain being hung on the blade.

It's just a custom style for my long running RPG. I just started spriting, that's all. I'm not even sure if I'll keep this or not cause creating my own style(s) is just not my forte, even tho I know it's a REALLY good way on how to improve artistically. I have some other styles I've made my Aria char in that I think would work great for my project but people keep telling me to go for my own style and this is what came up. So... yea...
