Im fairly new to the whole posting on a forum but ill skip straight to the point:
I make 32bit MMX style sprites, bit of bit of edit, then scratching on it and people to C+C on this character im making. If its too much edit and not enough scratch, just tell me and ill fix it.

Mikado
01-06-06, 18:32
Well I like it, but is that mmx 32 bit?!

mastadon
01-06-06, 18:35
Yep, I used Zero for a basic body template. The clothing was pretty much scratch, took me ages to get the right preportions.

Mikado
01-06-06, 18:37
Well then : Great! I didn't know what the base is! ( people are saying thats good )

mastadon
01-06-06, 18:39
Thanks, im working on another pose atm of him with arms crossed but its difficult.

Mikado
01-06-06, 18:40
Yea I know I wonder how the big guys are diong it so fast

mastadon
01-06-06, 18:45
Alot of time and practice i suppose. By the way, who is 'people'?

Uhm guys that are rating sprites

mastadon
01-06-06, 18:53
ok thts all gravy. Gonna concentrate on this sprite now, im determined to get it finished.

sovietcommando
01-06-06, 19:09
Great sprite. I can still recognize the pose but the extensive edits and scratches make up for it.

mastadon
01-06-06, 22:07
Thanks SC, still work in progress. 3 new poses, all crossed armed, one hologram. C+C please:D

I also need a name for him, Ive thought of Atton but i think it doesnt seem to fit. Any suggestions? And hes an Outcast Demon, In between Good and Evil. XD

Mikado
02-06-06, 20:59
I like it, but whit the hologram; maybe should you do special effects like cyber elf X (mmz)

mastadon
02-06-06, 21:46
Yeah i could do, ill work on it and see if any effects do fit. At the moment im working on an attack sequence and ive come up with the idea of him doing a sort of single hand DBZ 'kame-hame-blah-blah-blah' style blast and having a handgun for another attack sprite. Any ideas? please tell me

Mikado
02-06-06, 21:50
Maybe doing an Masenko and big bang together with an final flash :D

mastadon
02-06-06, 22:01
ill think about it. Wht about physical attacks? mainly punch or kick?

Jace
02-06-06, 22:14
id go with Atton for his name sounds cool and mysterious, and id go with kicks they're normally more powerful

oh and great and i mean GREAT sprite

Mikado
02-06-06, 22:20
If I was you I would use an weapon

mastadon
02-06-06, 22:31
Thanks Jace. Kicks can be quite tough sprites to pull of but ill give it a shot, ill give requests to people if i cant pull it off.

To Mikado: Hes already going to have a handgun for a weapon.

mastadon
03-06-06, 13:04
UPDATE!:D
Made two handgun sprites. Credit to 'Pillbox Phil' (who is awesome) for making the amazing guns sheet he made on TPS site. The second pose the arm was 60% scratch and 40% edit from the Axl sprite sheet by BlackBeltDude (hes also awesome). C+C and hope you like it:D

Mikado
03-06-06, 16:15
When holding his handgun straight; his hand is bit to long

mastadon
03-06-06, 17:12
Ill quickly fix that.
Any better?

Mikado
04-06-06, 11:08
I think it's still to long
but it is better

mastadon
04-06-06, 11:13
well at least its better.
As for kicking poses, im working on a Bruce Lee flying kick which i should be able to post up when im done.

Mikado
04-06-06, 11:22
Make sure to let his "cape" move :D

mastadon
04-06-06, 13:19
I might be blonde but im not stupid:D
Ive also made a jump sequence to join the Flying kick pose
C+C please:D :D :D

Mikado
04-06-06, 15:03
Flying kick pose; I can't see hid othe leg

mastadon
04-06-06, 17:31
wht do you mean?

Mikado
04-06-06, 20:05
The jacket is black and the leg to...

sovietcommando
04-06-06, 20:10
I can see both legs fine.

mastadon
04-06-06, 20:26
@ mikado: thats wht i planned to have
@ SC: well thats good to here, ive changed the shading on the jacket abit now anyway
Any better?

tuckur21
04-06-06, 20:37
to be completely honest i still cant see his leg too well i mean i can see it just not good

Tai
04-06-06, 20:38
Maybe your computer moniters too dark...

Anyway good sprite!

tuckur21
04-06-06, 20:40
Maybe your computer moniters too dark...

Anyway good sprite!
maybe but like i said i can see it just not well

mastadon
04-06-06, 20:41
well my main aim was better shading on the cape but there seems to be a problem with the legs now

Mikado
05-06-06, 11:20
I can see the leg, it's perfect now

mastadon
05-06-06, 18:36
AWESOME XD
Ive made a new attack and 2 more handgun poses.
The new attack is a dark magic attack and i need a name for it and C+C on it.
That is all:D

Mikado
05-06-06, 19:21
The hand is looking to large...

mastadon
05-06-06, 19:51
really? hmm ill look at it and see wht i can do. Any suggestions for the name of the attack? I was thinking of 'Blood Fury'

Jace
05-06-06, 21:57
show the rest of the attack then we may be able to come up with an idea

Mikado
06-06-06, 17:20
Raging fist..

mastadon
06-06-06, 17:24
Well its an attack that can only be used on one opponant. Im making the sequence at the moment. Atton immobilizes his opponant, charges up his final strike which is a blade made out of blood which appears from the floor and cuts the opponant.

to Mikado: no fist is involved unfortunatly

Mikado
06-06-06, 17:28
Then maybe...raging not-fist? Xp

mastadon
06-06-06, 17:45
Heh Heh, well ive finished the sequence maybe you'll have better ideas after seeing this

Mikado
06-06-06, 17:53
Confusion-charge-desroy attack!!!
no, just Blood Punisher

mastadon
06-06-06, 17:59
i guess you like it then. Blood Punisher sounds good, ill see what other people think before making a final dicision

Mikado
06-06-06, 19:35
Your picky aren;t you?

mastadon
07-06-06, 08:34
Just abit :D but the names i have at the momnent are, Blood Fury, Blood Punisher or Blood Blade

Mikado
07-06-06, 11:32
Well maybe try less blood...

mastadon
07-06-06, 16:19
Well that is what the attack is, it using blood. But the next attack im experimenting with is without blood

Mikado
07-06-06, 16:23
I hope it, I don't like blood, much...

Jace
07-06-06, 16:57
How about Blood Edge

Doogles
07-06-06, 17:15
Ooh. Bloody.

mastadon
07-06-06, 20:32
Yes Thank You Jace! Thats Perfect!!! :D :D :D :D

Jace
07-06-06, 20:49
Hey. It's what I do in my spare time, think up random attacks.

Mikado
07-06-06, 20:58
woo, I like that attack name....isn't that from soulcalibur3? whatever, don't awnser that other wised we get off topic and we get a warning from ace becouse of the new rules...

mastadon
10-06-06, 20:43
Frickin UPDATE DUDES!
Its been a while since i posted anything because ive been doing exams but ive finally got a small sprite sheet with some new poses:D spot them out, there's five new poses, and ive also added the 'Omen Blade'
C+C please

Doogles
10-06-06, 22:16
That's pretty cool.

Mikado
11-06-06, 10:23
dude is that jpg, or are that just mine eyes

mastadon
11-06-06, 14:46
yes it is a jpg so if any theives try to claim it for they're own, they have to get rid of all the extra colours and they arent going to bother doing that.
And thank you KR for the compliment

Mikado
12-06-06, 21:19
I didn't nkow there are thiefs around here....OMG Mine sprites! *runs to his sprites*
Now realy, I don't think this is neccersally...

mastadon
16-06-06, 09:43
Update: Been working on the sprite sheet for a while now and ive gotten rid of the sword poses and now added different poses. Ive also changed the running pose to make it more scratch.

EDIT: due to some problems on the 'Bob and George' forums that has happened to me, i wont be posting my sprite sheet untill its 100% custom

mastadon
22-06-06, 16:42
Major update folks!
I know have a new sprite sheet in progress, still using the same name but this time as a Human in reploid armour. 32 bit PSX style. Ive done two seperate colourings, Holy and Satanic.
Please give C+C:D

lordmetroid
22-06-06, 17:41
That is awsome! I found no flaws. 10/10.

mastadon
22-06-06, 19:56
Why thank you LM, what colour scheme is the best? Or are they both good

lordmetroid
22-06-06, 19:57
They're both good, but the red one looks better.

Mikado
22-06-06, 19:59
Well Holy, is Waaaaaaaaaaay to light. And the contrast, is a bit to.
The red one, is good.

mastadon
22-06-06, 20:19
The 'Holy armour' IS meant to be light and i was going for the very bright look. And it seems ive accomplished that. Look foward to some more poses soon and I might make some unique poses for the 'Satanic' and some for the 'Holy'.

Mikado
22-06-06, 20:25
Well, you can make the holy armour less "burnoutmyeyes" Maybe making it Light grey? That the same thing I did woth my sprites. Or VERY light red...

mastadon
22-06-06, 20:47
hmm i could make it more 'silver' than pure white, ill probably get it done tomorow.
Ive also made this quick Avatar which took me about 6 minutes

mastadon
30-06-06, 16:26
Quite a big update today folks.
I have been working on a Request for Calypso. He wants an EXE electric enemy turned into a MMX4-6 style sprite. Im going to make it into a PD sprite sheet soon but only when its done. And a lil C+C would be very helpful XD
http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/6465/electridude3xp.png

Also ive been working on a MMZ style Demon which is hopefully going to be shown in 'The Unbalanced Blade' Fancomic by Franco on BnG. C+C on this aswell please and any ideas of some extra poses? (nothing to fancy) Oh yeah, the Demon has no relevance to the megaman universe WHATSOEVER so dont say stuff like 'Does he work for the Resistence' Etc etc etc
http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/2553/mmzdemon5cb.png

And last of all, My main personal character Atton. Ive been working on him for quite a while now and i desperatly need some C+C because i need some ideas for Slashing poses AND Buster poses.
http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/5858/atton0wf.png

Enjoy XD :D XD

Mikado
30-06-06, 16:40
Atton is good, but hte mmz charqacters head is off.
Also, the electrick guy looks abit scrachty.
However, good sprite overall.

TwIzTeR_91
30-06-06, 17:35
The shading on the thunder guy's head is odd.... That's all I noticed.

mastadon
30-06-06, 18:53
@Mikado: its meant to be slightly foward. If it was 1 pixel back, it would look odd. And of course the Electricdude is meant to be scratchy, thats the whole point.
@Twitzer: Does it need to be more round or what? you actually need to tell me what i should do, not just say 'its odd'.

to everyone whos going to make a comment:
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE dont make simple comments PLEASE! ITS NOT HELPFUL FOR ME!! dont just look at the sprites, actually READ what is before the link and answer my questions. PLEASE!!!

Mikado
30-06-06, 18:55
I didn;t mean that his head is to far forward. His face is just messed up.

TwIzTeR_91

Sorry about that. The shading doesn't look round enough. It's awkward looking, and unrealistic. It should move around the circle in a crecent pattern.

mastadon
30-06-06, 19:03
@Mikado:Well its a MMZ style sprite, theres not much detail on a face of that size. Also ive done the same thing ive done with Atton with the Black face tattoo across the face. Its more sinister.
@Twizter: thank you for telling me. Ill get to work on it right away.

Mikado
30-06-06, 19:05
Something that would be helpfull: When demon atton is rapidly moving his "blade" Don't make very long "teleport lines" Use more, but shorter ones!

mastadon
30-06-06, 19:11
Mikado, you have made no sense whatsoever. He has no blade. And by "teleport lines" i guess you mean the dash.

Mikado
30-06-06, 19:20
I meant this sprites(image!). And with the teleport line sI ment this (image2)
The right one is the good one. More but, shorter teleport lines.

mastadon
13-07-06, 22:05
Update, been doing work on some new characters and C+C would be helpful. Especially for Hzana since hes still an experiment.

Heres Atton Streak. More sword slashes added and a few small edits made to make shading abit better, etc. C+C and any ideas on different slashes would be nice to.
http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/3838/atton8ls.png

Then we have Lisa Streak. Credit to Lizzy for PD Femme Base, which is a great help. Im still working on small details and the shoes are not going to be blue for very long. C+C please
http://img330.imageshack.us/img330/6018/lisa2zf.png

And heres Hzana. Ive dumped the idea of him having the same armour and head as Atton (so un-original) and replaced the armour with something more like X's and im going to give him a Zweihander sword too. For thoses who dont what a Zweihander sword is, its a very big sword XD
C+C and suggestions about colour schemes would be helpful. Thank you
http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/5162/hzananew8sg.png

Mikado
14-07-06, 13:36
For atton; You could make for him salto slashes.
And an up-slash followed by an rapheal like slash( I hope you ever played soul calibur) The possibilities are almost un-endless.

mastadon
03-08-06, 15:54
MEGA UPDATE!!!
Ive been kinda busy lately which is why i havent posted anything but im back and im going to be posting alot more.

First things first. 32bit MMX style sprites are in the bin! I got bored and now ive been working on MMZX and MMZ sprites!

Im still using my original character 'Atton' since i cant be bothered to come up with a whole new person/reploid etc etc. So...... Heres Atton in ZX form!
http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/3303/attonzxnt9.png

C+C please and any suggestions on extra poses aswell please.

~Mastadon

mastadon
08-08-06, 19:09
UPDATE: Some custom new poses for Atton and also i have some news too.

I will be creating my own comic soon once i get my new laptop which will consist of MMZ and MMZX sprites. I thought I'd mention it on hear before i do a comic thread and not show and example of my work and get in trouble for it.

But back on the subject of this being a sprite thread, heres the link to the new poses of Atton. If anyone can work out where i got the idea from, ill give you a prize :D (avatar or maybe even a custom sprite)
http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/2222/newposeshv4.png
NOT PD! Well all my sprites arent PD anyway

~Mastadon

Worenx
09-08-06, 01:12
Well, I like the MMX styled ones; I don't see many problems with them. But the MMZ ones... I think what it is to me is that I can still see a lot of Zero in them. Maybe tweak the armor more? Put some demonic spikes and what not... That's all I can really say. Sorry, I have no intent to offend.

mastadon
09-08-06, 11:57
Thats perfectly fine critisism WorenX. I have been working on added more details to the armour on the MMZ style sprites and i will be posting the actual prototypes soon once ive made about 5 or maybe 10 different ones.
