Ryo Hazaki's Sprite Workshop

[Ryo Hazaki]

I've Been Working on Some Recolored And Custom sprites, And Finally Decided To Post Them.

WARNING: Some Of These Sprites Are Awful!

The First Sprite Is My First Attempt To Create A Custom Navi Based Off Of A Female Variant Of Crystalman, Called Crystal.EXE.

The second And Third Sprites Are An Attempt To Create A Fan Character, But All It Turned Out To Be Was A Bad Recolor Of Chaud's Sprites.

The Fourth And Fifth Sprites Are An Attempt To Make A Saito Style Bass From Both The Classic and EXE Styles.

The Sixth Sprite Is My First in A Series Of Custom PETs, A Sprite Of Bass's PET, Based Off of The toy.

The Seventh Sprite Is A Finished Version Of My Fan Character Mentioned Earlier, Mako Ai.

The Last Two Were Created As A Request Off The Old Forum For An Updated Shading Version Of X And Zero From MM Xtreme/2

C+C On These Sprites Would Be Welcome.

Never save your sprites as BMPs and JPEGs.

[Mikado]

I saw some of those, and it are just minor edit, instead of maing alot small things, make 1 big one.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Never save your sprites as BMPs and JPEGs.

I Lost My PNG fromat Copies When My Computer Crashed.

[Rakia]

Why Do You Have A Capital For Almost Every Word In That Sentence Of Yours?

[Kairos]

Habbit?

[Kairos]

That's awsome,but,could you do that somewhere else. This is Ai's thread after all. Not grammer lessons.

[Mikado]

Rags, you always say: DON"T DOUBLE POST!
But now you do it by yourslelf!

[Rakia]

No that was my fault, I deleted my post.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Sorry, every now and then I slip into that old bad habit of mine.

In other news, I'm making a sheet of the various symbols for Net Navis whose symbols don't appear in game. (i.e. The various "Boss" Navis.)

[sovietcommando]

I Lost My PNG fromat Copies When My Computer Crashed.
That's simple to fix. Simply save your BMPs to PNG.

[Ryo Hazaki]

That's simple to fix. Simply save your BMPs to PNG.

Tried. But when I do that the uploader says "This .BMP file has the wrong extension" when I try to upload them.

[Ryo Hazaki]

It's been a while, but I've got an UPDATE!

With "Megaman Axl" coming along nicely, I thought I'd post my MMAXL-themed Recolors:

First is the series of Recolors off of BBD's PD Axl sheet. (As a result this sheet is also PD) First is the Fixed Axl with the proper Hair and armor trim colors, then the Hyper Mode Axl (Black armor from Comand Mission), The "Cross Fusion" Axl from season 2, and then The "Full Synchro" Axl (White Armor from X8) Seen in season 4:

Next is the "Hyper Mode" Slash Beast from Season 1, and The "Dark Cross Fusion" Magma Dragoon from season 4:

http://neuropod.net/spritersblock/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1279.0;attach=259; image

Going from MMAXL to MMBN, Here's an updated Mako Ai:

http://neuropod.net/spritersblock/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1279.0;attach=257; image

And a fixed and Sheeted (Minus Mugs, Emotion Windowand batte chips) Crystal.EXE:

http://neuropod.net/spritersblock/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1279.0;attach=262; image

On the sheet:
Overworlds
First Row (In-Battle) - standing poses
Second Row - Crystal's battle chip attack: Crystal Meteor (Effects seen in the las row before the icon)
Third Row - Teleporting and hurt poses
Fourth row - Sword slashing
Fifth Row - Buster poses
Sixth Row - Throwing and Charged shot poses (Charged shot: Crystal Fire)
Seventh Row - Crystal Meteor effects
Finally - Crystal's Navi Icon

[Zyros]

I can't see any of the pictures, they all say that you need to be logged in.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Damn. So SDB's forum won't let me do that. Hmm. Here in the attachments:

Axl Recolors
Slash beast Recolor
Magma Dragoon Recolor
Updated Mako
Crystal Sheet

[Novacrash]

eh..wha..who..why..

Why did you post RECOLORS?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Mako and Crystal are EDITS! Not good ones, but edits nonetheless.

[Novacrash]

..yeah, you edited about..like..4% of the sprites.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Mako's more like 12%. Besides, I just can't edit real well. (Did you see the original Crystal? Horrendous.)

[Drei]

Does the pecentage really matter? No, even if MOST(hint, hint) is edited. All you've done is make crappy rip offs and modes of other charaters so far except one, who is a slight edit. Why don't you, instead of making things like hyper modes, just come up with characters of your own.

[Ryo Hazaki]

The Various "Hyper Modes" You mentioned are as seen in My FanFic "Megaman Axl", and are intended as a visual reference only (And as recolor Templates for a future comic version of the fanfic.). And if you don't like them, DON'T LOOK AT THEM!

[Drei]

You seem to be missing the point. It's unoriginal. All I said was the truth of you not being creative with the sprites posted.
Good work Capcom! Can be said for most of your sprites.

If you want us to help you sprite better don't recolor.

[Ryo Hazaki]

By keeping the Roll base, and the current color scheme, how do you suggest I create a better Crystal.EXE sprite with my limited skills? Recolors are about the limits of my talent.

[Novacrash]

By keeping the Roll base, and the current color scheme, how do you suggest I create a better Crystal.EXE sprite with my limited skills? Recolors are about the limits of my talent.

That is why you will never be a better spriter. Don't think of your limits. Just try something, ANYTHING. an edit to an arm, a head, SOMETHING! A big edit, not like adding wrist bands or something but something where you cant tell what it was used off of.

I dont care if it takes you 5 hours, DO IT.

A little bit of advice: Don't start with.EXE style, it's harder to run with an idea.

Start with ZX, its VERY simple.

[Ryo Hazaki]

What would you suggest?

[Novacrash]

Well, most ZX sprites are a recolored X or ZX, with a unique head.

[Drei]

Start with ZX, its VERY simple.
No, just no. ZX is 32b and EVERYTHING is overused as recolors and edits. That will only increase the overuse of Everything ZX and then this topic will more than likely get flamed for it. Start with something 16b or 8b for simplicty.

Oh, and having a limit to spriting is impossible. You can fix and fix aaannnd fix until it is perfect.

[Novacrash]

...Shut-up Drei.

it's hard to be creative with 16b or 8b unless it's scratched.

Learning to edit comes before scratching.

[Ryo Hazaki]

(Blows whistle) Alright, TIME OUT! Leave the in-fighting for after school, kiddies. I'll try to make Mako Ai in BOTH ZX and 16-bit MMX, just to see how they turn out.

Side Note: Does anyone know where I can find the MMX1-3 and ZX Palletes?

And one question: How's the shading on Crystal.EXE? Some moron on the SDB Forum's been complaining it doesn't contrast. I'd like to get an opinion from people who work with the BN style.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, it's been a while, but UPDATE!

First is a sprite that's been in the Rating thread and is my first attempt at a serious edit: Mr. Kennedy

Next are a series of sprites from the Digimon D-tector toy (A toy similar to the Megaman PET.). I don't know if they're custom or rips, but I'm erring on the side of caution on these and posting them here.

They are in this order:
Takuya
Koji
JP
Zoe
Tommy

This is the process I used to take these sprites from a toy to a computer:
1. Select a pose/item/whatever.
2. I used my lego set to make a mockup of the sprite.
3. Using the mockup, I scratched the sprte using Microsoft Paint.
4. Resize to your liking. (I used 8x)

[Lord Wraith]

A little bit of advice: Don't start with.EXE style, it's harder to run with an idea.

Start with ZX, its VERY simple.

Just my opinion, but MMBN is easier for me than ZX or Z, I find the shading to be easier, ZX/Z style shading is weird, well the sprites may be easier to create a custom character, the sheeting of said character can be come painstakingly evil...

[Kilik 64]

Well, it's not fantastic by any means, but I've seen worse. Sure, they're only recolors and simple edits, but last time I checked, that usually what you start with. If you all know of someone who could thow out heavy edits and scratch sprites from the go, then please PM me a link to their work.

The edits you did aren't bad, but they aren't much. The problem is that our work is not really shown. Now, here's a solution to the problem. You erased the hair and head things off of every sprite in the Roll.exe sheet, correct? That is one simple edit. Try another simple edit to the sheet, slightly changing something else about the body that is your custom work. Then, just repeat as necessary. A half dozen or so edits later, you have your own custom sheet!

Heh, I just realized we both made female navi versions of Crystalman....

[Dead Panda]

Ohmigod! Digimon season 4! Lame... But the sprites are decent.

First, the hair didn't get erased, it just got recolored. And as for your Crystal, it turned out much better than mine, and I would be honored to add the "Crystal Meteor" Effects to your sheet for it's next attack.

[ZetaZero]

OFF:

Woah, you're my complete opposite. I found BN is insanely evil and Z/ZX really easy. My Navi never got past 2 poses while I've sheeted quite a few models already. xD

ON: I have a red-black D4 Digivice and I think you sprited the characters really close. Although I've never seen Joe, Tommy or JP in the Digivice, I think it does look like them a bit in the anime. Good Job.

[Lord Wraith]

Well MMBN may have a heck of a lot more poses for a complete sheet, I find it much easier, I have only made one complete navi though, should have about 4 by the end of summer.

[RyuReiatsu]

Novacrash, calm down.
You're not any better anyways.

Look, try getting that "crystal.exe" again.
And try to add anything, like... let's say... 1 crystal on one side of her shoulder.

And like... easy stuffs for now.

[Kilik 64]

Also, either erase the hair or try to custom to do it along with the crystals on the shoulders.

I highly suggest custom hair. You can make it look exactly how you picture the character's hairstlye, and it's good practice for custom work.

[RyuReiatsu]

Yes, Kilik is right.
Now, I hope you'll try to improve.

One thing; Always go beyond your limits...

Remember that, otherwise, you won't get any better.

[Ryo Hazaki]

OFF:

OFF: They're in it. I've got the same D4 and that's where I got the idea. As for finding the chars, try under the "Status" heading.

ON: Everyone has a style they find easier than others. Since I started with MMBN and MMX Recolors, I'd think their styles would be easier to edit for me than the Classic or ZX/Zero styles. Mr. Kennedy's poses took about 4 hours, most of it on the head, trying to get it to look right, while Crystal took only about 45 miniutes for the entire sheet.

Anyways, I'm putting all my spriting projects on hold for now so I can fully focus on starting Megaman Axl's second season (Look for an update in that thread soon).

Also, since Rags' gonna be busy with his game projects, his comics and his own sprite work, I would like to ask for some assistance with the "Megaman Axl" Comic. Here is what we would need (PM Me for details):

Sprites (Obviously)
Backgrounds
X6 style mugshots.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Forget what I said about spriting being on hold. I got bored this weekend and just started spriting for no reason.

First is a Mako Ai with updated shading on his shirt and the Bass series of PETs. (Dont ask, It's top secret.)

Next is my first attempt at BN Mugshots, Mako's. (Pretty obvious who the base is, but, meh.)

Finally is my entry into the whole ZX Character thing: Vega Obscura! Not much to him now, but I do Plan on sheeting him soon.

Poses:
Current:
Standing
Motorbike (Zera)

Planned:
Battle Stance
Walking
Running
Climbing
Jumping
On motorbike
and Rock-On

Possible:
Hurt
fallen

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, I finished his standing poses and fixed a problem with his wrist being too thick and added his walking, hurt, and I don't know what the second row's poses (Probably startled.) are. Don't mind the Vent sprites, thay're there to remind me of what poses I still need to make.

[Mako]

Pretty good so far, but the Popeye arms disturb me; His forearms are freakin' huge! Coloring the wristbands as skin is easy to do, sure, but you should get in the habit of not coloring them. Rather, make it look like the rest of his arm. Also, work on your shading. The clothes and hair look like a single color, and his arms don't seem to match the face.

[Fuzion Phoenix]

On your ZX character, add a dark outline on to his arm.

[ZetaZero]

Make the shades dramatically different. Right now all your shades are too similiar and it doesn't look like it has been shaded at all. From what I see, (Without zooming in) it looks like his hair and cloths are three big blocks of color. So fix that. Notice that Vent's 4 shades are very different and how the darkest and the lightest have a large difference.

[Ryo Hazaki]

So Fix the shading and the "Popeye" arms? I already fixed the Popeye arms on the Standing sprites, but the other stances may take a while longer. Now I go to find better colors for the pallete!

EDIT: Does anyone know where I can find sprites of Vent and Giro on their Motorbikes?

[ZetaZero]

I don't think they have one. Because from what I seen in the trailer, they were off their bikes, then the irregulars came and blew Giro's Bike up and knocked Vent off the cliff...

[Mako]

I think people just made those. I don't recall either of them being on their motorbikes during the game.

EDIT: Outposted. >_<;;

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, does anyone know who made those?

[Novacrash]

Darx did...I'll try and find it.

Edit:http://sympato.ch/~dark-ax/temp/ZX_ride-chaser_riders.png

[Ryo Hazaki]

Thanks. Alright I've got a test: Which looks better? I'll reshade the pants later with colors from Larkman.EXE's sheet, but right now I want to know which hair and shirt colors are best. Also, could someome provide me with a good ZX Skin pallete?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Okay, Fixed the pants colors and added them to the test sheet and added a darker outline to the skin and recolored the face skin. And sort of a mini request: can someone please remove the wristbands from the Vent sprites on the sheet below (Added Darx's Vent ride chaser poses, which are PD and Darx will recieve credit for them.) Thanks in advance.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Fixed the Popeye arms and went with the second coloring option from the last post. Any better?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Finished Vega's Motorbike poses

And a new person: Vega's girlfriend Raye Achikawa!

[RyuReiatsu]

So many people helped here O.O..
Can't really give you any tips anymore, they said anything needed.

As for the characters, keep in mind that the hand is bigger than the forearm.

The shoulder is out of place, because you actually changed the arm's size.
Actually, you should also scratch some new pants for vega.
Seriously, it looks odd...

[Ryo Hazaki]

^ First, I can't scratch.
Second, I've dropped the second row of finished sprites and the Jumping Rock-On/-Off sprites to make the total job easier on me.
Finally, Can someone help me with the head for the Damaged, Unconscious, the second and third Rock-On Poses and the Jumping poses, please?

Finally, Here's the latest shading fix:

http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=6671&stc=1&d=1183221781

[Kilik 64]

The arms and legs on the girl need some fine tuning done to the shading...

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, that's actually the third shading fix, but I'll up her shading again soon.

Meanwhile, I've finished most of Vega's Rock-Off poses as well as reshaded the Standing poses. Next I'll try to fix the skin shading on the rest of the poses I've already finished.

And Finally, Some Biographical Information on Vega, Raye and their Biometals And Models:

=Vega Obscura=
Age: 15
Hair: Black
Eyes: Blue
Biometals: LZ, LZS, LZX
Biography: The main hero of “Pride of Ligers”. At the age of 5, he witnessed the murders of his parents by Crimson, who stole the Biometals LZX and LZE while hidden in a closet. Afterwards, he moved in with family friends, the Achikawa family. At the age of 15, he was given the Biometal LZ by an unknown figure. When Boa attacked the school with his snake Mechaniloid and his Model Snakeman, seeking the LZ Biometal, Vega fought him by merging himself with the newly revealed Biometal LZ and becoming Model Liger Zero. Afterwards, Vega left on a journey to find the remaining Liger series Biometals and avenge his parent’s murders with his friend Raye Achikawa.

=Raye Achikawa=
Age: 15
Hair: Black
Eyes: Green
Biometals: LZJ, LZP
Biography: Vega’s closest friend (and later, girlfriend.), Raye was initially against Vega receiving the package that contained Biometal LZ. After seeing Vega defeat Boa as Model Liger Zero, she decided to join Vega on his quest to locate the Liger Biometals. During a battle with Duplica and Model Geminiman, she was knocked off a cliff and managed to grab onto a ledge where, in the mother of all coincidences, Biometal LZJ was hidden. Using the Biometal, Raye became Model Liger Zero Jaeger and helped Vega defeat Duplica. Since then she has vowed to remain by Vega’s side till the bitter end.

=Biometal LZ=
Biography: The first Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZ was hidden in a secret chamber in the city. He was eventually located by the “mysterious person” and was given to Vega as he was heading to school. When Boa attacked, Biometal LZ revealed himself to Vega and taught the youth to “Rock-On”, a process by which a human can merge with a Biometal, granting incredible powers. LZ has an enthusiastic personality and is always itching for a fight. Biometal LZ is the Biometal used most by Vega.

=Biometal LZS=
Biography: The fourth Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZS was hidden in the Area Zero Forest area. LZS believes he owes the forest his life for hiding and protecting him, thus preventing him from falling into evil hands. However, that changed when Vega and the others encountered Blaze with Model Burnerman and Blade with Model Swordman. Model Liger Zero was overwhelmed, and LZS revealed himself to Vega and agreed to help him. In return, Vega agreed to prevent Blade and Blaze from destroying the forest. LZS later joined Vega and has been an invaluable asset with his sense of honor and justice.

=Biometal LZX=
Biography: The sixth and last Biometal in the Liger series created by Dr. Obscura, LZX was one of the two Biometals stolen by Crimson after he murdered Dr. Obscura and his wife. LZX was considered useless by Crimson because LZX refused to reveal his powers to Crimson. During Vega’s fateful battle with Crimson, during which Crimson stole both Vega’s and Raye’s Biometals, LZX revealed himself to Vega and the two merged and were able to defeat the crime boss. Afterwards, Vega gave LZX a safe haven in the Hunter team’s vault and is called upon only when there is a dire situation.

=Biometal LZJ=
Biography: The second Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZJ was hidden on a sheer cliff in the Horwick mountain range. Raye stumbled upon the Biometal when she was knocked off the same cliff by Duplica and Model Geminiman. LZJ taught Raye to Rock-On and the duo helped Vega defeat Duplica. LZJ is the only female Biometal in the Liger series, and her tomboyish attitude is a perfect match for Raye, and the two are often seen together.

=Biometal LZP=
Biography: The third Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZP was hidden at the bottom of the ocean. Raye uncovered the Biometal when she and the others encountered Aquatos and Model Waveman and Ballast and Model Diveman. LZP is the team’s aggressive influence, always looking to start a fight, which Biometal LZ is often ready to oblige. Although LZP is aggressive, he is also a steadfast and reliable Biometal, ready to assist when he is needed.

=Model Liger Zero=
User: Vega
Weapons: Arm Buster, Claw Arm (retracts into arm for Buster)

The first Liger Model to appear in “Pride of Ligers”, Model Liger Zero was first used by Vega to stop Boa’s Model Snakeman from destroying the school where Vega and Raye attended. Model Liger Zero is the Model Vega uses most due to its “Strike Laser Claw” technique which allows Vega to literally tear out his opponent’s Biometal and subsequently crush it.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Charge Shot: An attack where Model Liger Zero fully charges the Arm Buster and releases a large blast.
Strike Laser Claw: Model Liger Zero’s Overdrive attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero charges towards his opponent and before the opponent can react, tears out the opponent’s Biometal and destroys it.

=Model Liger Zero Schneider=
User: Vega
Weapons: Shield Generator, Blades (7; one mounted on the head, one mounted on each knee, one mounted on each arm, and two on the back.)

Vega’s second Model, Model Liger Zero Schneider first saw action in the Area Zero Forest when Blade and Blaze tried to burn it down. Vega activated Model Liger Zero Schneider, and with its incredible agility, quickly overwhelmed them. The blades on its back serve a secondary purpose beyond weaponry, allowing Vega to glide a limited distance as well as acting as stabilizers so the model can function underwater. Model Liger Zero Schneider can also project an energy shield allowing it to protect its teammates. It is also the only Liger series Model without an Arm Buster, making it a close-quarters only Model.

Attacks:
Generate Shield: Model Liger Zero Schneider generates an energy shield allowing him to deflect most attacks. Biometal LZS also used this to protect Vega from Model Burnerman’s Wave Burner attack.
Slash: Model Liger Zero Schneider’s basic attack. Model Liger Zero Schneider attacks with the Arm Blades.
Buster Slash: Model Liger Zero Schneider stores energy in his Arm Blades and slashes, creating a large shockwave.
7 Blade Attack: Model Liger Zero Schneider’s Overdrive attack. All seven blades swing into position and Model Liger Zero Schneider charges forward, destroying his opponent’s Biometal while protected by an energy shield in a similar fashion as the Legendary Reploid X’s Ultimate armor’s Nova Strike.

=Model Liger Zero X=
User: Vega
Weaponry: Arm Buster, Claw Arm, Energy Generators (Positioned on his back like Model Liger Zero Schneider’s back blades)

Vega’s ultimate Model, Model Liger Zero X is used only when the situation cannot be resolved by other means, due to its sheer power. Model Liger Zero X was originally designed to be a counter to Serpent’s Model Wiel. However, Dr. Obscura was killed and the Biometal containing Model Liger Zero X was stolen. Serpent was defeated by Vent and Aile using other means. Model Liger Zero X is so powerful; it took Model Liger Zero Empire’s Imperial Cannon attack and walked away without a scratch. Its Overdrive attack, Energy Driver, allows the user to vaporize the opponent’s Biometal and kill its opponent. This fact alone so scared Vega, that he locked the Biometal in the Hunter team’s vault. It was designed with a Claw arm similar to Models Liger Zero and Liger Zero Jaeger, so it can be assumed that it also posses Model Liger Zero’s “Strike Laser Claw” Overdrive as well.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero X’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Shock Cannon: An attack where Model Liger Zero X fully charges the Arm Buster and releases a large bolt of electricity.
Energy Driver: Model Liger Zero X’s Overdrive attack. The energy generators on its back flip forward and release a large blast of electrical energy, destroying its opponent’s Biometal and killing its opponent.
Strike Laser Claw: Model Liger Zero X’s implied Secondary Overdrive attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero X charges towards his opponent and before the opponent can react, tears out the opponent’s Biometal and destroys it.

=Model Liger Zero Jaeger=
User: Raye
Weapons: Arm Buster, Claw Arm, Flight Boosters

Raye’s first Model, Model Liger Zero Jaeger is a Model capable of powered flight. Designed using the same specifications as Model Liger Zero, Model Liger Zero Jaeger has a similar attack set. Using its flight boosters, Model Liger Zero Jaeger is capable of flight upwards of 100 stories high, which gave it the nickname, “The lethal eye in the sky”. Its flight boosters also allow the Model to operate underwater. Model Liger Zero Jaeger’s Overdrive, Strike Laser Claw, operates in a different fashion than Model Liger Zero’s. Instead of charging at the opponent, Model Liger Zero Jaeger charges energy in the Claw Arm and releases a shockwave similar to Model Liger Zero Schneider’s “Buster Slash” attack.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero Jaeger’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Charge Shot: An attack where Model Liger Zero Jaeger fully charges the Arm Buster and releases a large blast.
Strike Laser Claw: Model Liger Zero Jaeger’s Overdrive attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero Jaeger releases a shockwave that severely damages the opponent.


=Model Liger Zero Panzer=
User: Raye
Weapons: Arm Buster, Hybrid Cannons (mounted on the Model’s back), Missile Pods

Raye’s second Model, Model Liger Zero Panzer is a heavily armed and armored Model capable of great power, but limited mobility. Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Buster Arm is twice as powerful as the Arm Busters of the other Liger Models, but is incapable of charging its power. Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Hybrid Cannons are twin barreled 30mm laser cannons capable of blasting a hole through most substances. Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Overdrive attack, Burning Big Bang, is the most destructive Overdrive other than Model Liger Zero X’s “Energy Driver” and Model Liger Zero Empire’s “Imperial Strike” and “Imperial Cannon”, utilizing both the twin Hybrid cannons, and the 40 missile launchers located throughout the Model’s armor.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero Panzer’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Hybrid Cannon: Model Liger Zero Panzer fires the Hybrid Cannons on its back.
Burning Big Bang: Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Overdrive attack. Model Liger Zero Panzer fires the Hybrid Cannons on its back as well as the Missiles, severely damaging all enemies in its path.

[Xterra]

Wow, that's alot of info to have been placed within a post. Nice updates though. It look's as though you're nearly done with the sheet.

Do you have any sprites yet of what they look like when rocked-on?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Unfortunately, I don't trust my skills at creating models as far as as Vega could throw Serpent. So, no. But I Do have Model Liger Zero Up in the request thread, but I'm still waiting on someone to take it. And I am indeed nearly done and will be done as soon as I can figure out how to make the heads for the poses I mentioned earlier.

[ZetaZero]

Wow, maybe instead of making these into sprites, you should write a story in the writing section instead. O_O

Vega's arms are way too thin in the standing poses.

Do you want me to make LZ for you?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Yes, Please Make LZ for me. Actually, "Pride of Ligers" Is actually going to be a fanfic once I get the story details worked out, and was originally intended to be a comic that takes place right after the events of ZX. Vega's arms are thin because too many people complained about "Popeye arms" when Vega was first posted.

[ZetaZero]

I'll give you a standing pose for LZ. I'll start working on it tomorrow.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Thanks.

[Ryo Hazaki]

DP for an update:

I've finally finished reshading the arms on my previously finished sprites, and finished the Rock-Off sprite where his arms blur. I've fixed the shading on Raye's left arm and produced my first sig in the "Mako Ai's Random WTF?! Moments" Series.

[Xterra]

Um, hmn... The last one was pretty funny.

As for the girl, I didn't notice what you changed.

And then for Vega, nice update.

[ZetaZero]

Woo, I'm Hijacking.

*Shot*

A result I'm pround of. And I modified Vega's shading and arm to make him more ZX-ish.

Claws, Tail, Head full scratch.

Body is SC's PD model C.

[Xterra]

Wow! Really nice work on that model ZZ. The body looks great. Just add LZ's tail and then make the head look just a little more 'mech' than it already is.

(EDIT)-Wow! How the heck didn't I notice that tail in the first place! Anyway, then a superb job ZZ. Great spritesmanship.

I think that the head should just be edited to be more 'mech' now.

[ZetaZero]

The Mech part I'll leave it up to Mako Ai, this is the best I can do in the limited space. Thanks.

[Xterra]

Your welcome. I can't wait to see what Mako' does with these.

*evil grin*Ooooh, this is going to be sooo good!*wider evil grin than before*

[ZetaZero]

Now I wanted to make this my own model. xD

And I wish I had a Pwn rating like Wraith.

[crimson hammer]

Well, that's actually the third shading fix, but I'll up her shading again soon.

Meanwhile, I've finished most of Vega's Rock-Off poses as well as reshaded the Standing poses. Next I'll try to fix the skin shading on the rest of the poses I've already finished.

And Finally, Some Biographical Information on Vega, Raye and their Biometals And Models:

=Vega Obscura=
Age: 15
Hair: Black
Eyes: Blue
Biometals: LZ, LZS, LZX
Biography: The main hero of “Pride of Ligers”. At the age of 5, he witnessed the murders of his parents by Crimson, who stole the Biometals LZX and LZE while hidden in a closet. Afterwards, he moved in with family friends, the Achikawa family. At the age of 15, he was given the Biometal LZ by an unknown figure. When Boa attacked the school with his snake Mechaniloid and his Model Snakeman, seeking the LZ Biometal, Vega fought him by merging himself with the newly revealed Biometal LZ and becoming Model Liger Zero. Afterwards, Vega left on a journey to find the remaining Liger series Biometals and avenge his parent’s murders with his friend Raye Achikawa.

=Raye Achikawa=
Age: 15
Hair: Black
Eyes: Green
Biometals: LZJ, LZP
Biography: Vega’s closest friend (and later, girlfriend.), Raye was initially against Vega receiving the package that contained Biometal LZ. After seeing Vega defeat Boa as Model Liger Zero, she decided to join Vega on his quest to locate the Liger Biometals. During a battle with Duplica and Model Geminiman, she was knocked off a cliff and managed to grab onto a ledge where, in the mother of all coincidences, Biometal LZJ was hidden. Using the Biometal, Raye became Model Liger Zero Jaeger and helped Vega defeat Duplica. Since then she has vowed to remain by Vega’s side till the bitter end.

=Biometal LZ=
Biography: The first Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZ was hidden in a secret chamber in the city. He was eventually located by the “mysterious person” and was given to Vega as he was heading to school. When Boa attacked, Biometal LZ revealed himself to Vega and taught the youth to “Rock-On”, a process by which a human can merge with a Biometal, granting incredible powers. LZ has an enthusiastic personality and is always itching for a fight. Biometal LZ is the Biometal used most by Vega.

=Biometal LZS=
Biography: The fourth Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZS was hidden in the Area Zero Forest area. LZS believes he owes the forest his life for hiding and protecting him, thus preventing him from falling into evil hands. However, that changed when Vega and the others encountered Blaze with Model Burnerman and Blade with Model Swordman. Model Liger Zero was overwhelmed, and LZS revealed himself to Vega and agreed to help him. In return, Vega agreed to prevent Blade and Blaze from destroying the forest. LZS later joined Vega and has been an invaluable asset with his sense of honor and justice.

=Biometal LZX=
Biography: The sixth and last Biometal in the Liger series created by Dr. Obscura, LZX was one of the two Biometals stolen by Crimson after he murdered Dr. Obscura and his wife. LZX was considered useless by Crimson because LZX refused to reveal his powers to Crimson. During Vega’s fateful battle with Crimson, during which Crimson stole both Vega’s and Raye’s Biometals, LZX revealed himself to Vega and the two merged and were able to defeat the crime boss. Afterwards, Vega gave LZX a safe haven in the Hunter team’s vault and is called upon only when there is a dire situation.

=Biometal LZJ=
Biography: The second Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZJ was hidden on a sheer cliff in the Horwick mountain range. Raye stumbled upon the Biometal when she was knocked off the same cliff by Duplica and Model Geminiman. LZJ taught Raye to Rock-On and the duo helped Vega defeat Duplica. LZJ is the only female Biometal in the Liger series, and her tomboyish attitude is a perfect match for Raye, and the two are often seen together.

=Biometal LZP=
Biography: The third Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZP was hidden at the bottom of the ocean. Raye uncovered the Biometal when she and the others encountered Aquatos and Model Waveman and Ballast and Model Diveman. LZP is the team’s aggressive influence, always looking to start a fight, which Biometal LZ is often ready to oblige. Although LZP is aggressive, he is also a steadfast and reliable Biometal, ready to assist when he is needed.

=Model Liger Zero=
User: Vega
Weapons: Arm Buster, Claw Arm (retracts into arm for Buster)

The first Liger Model to appear in “Pride of Ligers”, Model Liger Zero was first used by Vega to stop Boa’s Model Snakeman from destroying the school where Vega and Raye attended. Model Liger Zero is the Model Vega uses most due to its “Strike Laser Claw” technique which allows Vega to literally tear out his opponent’s Biometal and subsequently crush it.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Charge Shot: An attack where Model Liger Zero fully charges the Arm Buster and releases a large blast.
Strike Laser Claw: Model Liger Zero’s Overdrive attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero charges towards his opponent and before the opponent can react, tears out the opponent’s Biometal and destroys it.

=Model Liger Zero Schneider=
User: Vega
Weapons: Shield Generator, Blades (7; one mounted on the head, one mounted on each knee, one mounted on each arm, and two on the back.)

Vega’s second Model, Model Liger Zero Schneider first saw action in the Area Zero Forest when Blade and Blaze tried to burn it down. Vega activated Model Liger Zero Schneider, and with its incredible agility, quickly overwhelmed them. The blades on its back serve a secondary purpose beyond weaponry, allowing Vega to glide a limited distance as well as acting as stabilizers so the model can function underwater. Model Liger Zero Schneider can also project an energy shield allowing it to protect its teammates. It is also the only Liger series Model without an Arm Buster, making it a close-quarters only Model.

Attacks:
Generate Shield: Model Liger Zero Schneider generates an energy shield allowing him to deflect most attacks. Biometal LZS also used this to protect Vega from Model Burnerman’s Wave Burner attack.
Slash: Model Liger Zero Schneider’s basic attack. Model Liger Zero Schneider attacks with the Arm Blades.
Buster Slash: Model Liger Zero Schneider stores energy in his Arm Blades and slashes, creating a large shockwave.
7 Blade Attack: Model Liger Zero Schneider’s Overdrive attack. All seven blades swing into position and Model Liger Zero Schneider charges forward, destroying his opponent’s Biometal while protected by an energy shield in a similar fashion as the Legendary Reploid X’s Ultimate armor’s Nova Strike.

=Model Liger Zero X=
User: Vega
Weaponry: Arm Buster, Claw Arm, Energy Generators (Positioned on his back like Model Liger Zero Schneider’s back blades)

Vega’s ultimate Model, Model Liger Zero X is used only when the situation cannot be resolved by other means, due to its sheer power. Model Liger Zero X was originally designed to be a counter to Serpent’s Model Wiel. However, Dr. Obscura was killed and the Biometal containing Model Liger Zero X was stolen. Serpent was defeated by Vent and Aile using other means. Model Liger Zero X is so powerful; it took Model Liger Zero Empire’s Imperial Cannon attack and walked away without a scratch. Its Overdrive attack, Energy Driver, allows the user to vaporize the opponent’s Biometal and kill its opponent. This fact alone so scared Vega, that he locked the Biometal in the Hunter team’s vault. It was designed with a Claw arm similar to Models Liger Zero and Liger Zero Jaeger, so it can be assumed that it also posses Model Liger Zero’s “Strike Laser Claw” Overdrive as well.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero X’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Shock Cannon: An attack where Model Liger Zero X fully charges the Arm Buster and releases a large bolt of electricity.
Energy Driver: Model Liger Zero X’s Overdrive attack. The energy generators on its back flip forward and release a large blast of electrical energy, destroying its opponent’s Biometal and killing its opponent.
Strike Laser Claw: Model Liger Zero X’s implied Secondary Overdrive attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero X charges towards his opponent and before the opponent can react, tears out the opponent’s Biometal and destroys it.

=Model Liger Zero Jaeger=
User: Raye
Weapons: Arm Buster, Claw Arm, Flight Boosters

Raye’s first Model, Model Liger Zero Jaeger is a Model capable of powered flight. Designed using the same specifications as Model Liger Zero, Model Liger Zero Jaeger has a similar attack set. Using its flight boosters, Model Liger Zero Jaeger is capable of flight upwards of 100 stories high, which gave it the nickname, “The lethal eye in the sky”. Its flight boosters also allow the Model to operate underwater. Model Liger Zero Jaeger’s Overdrive, Strike Laser Claw, operates in a different fashion than Model Liger Zero’s. Instead of charging at the opponent, Model Liger Zero Jaeger charges energy in the Claw Arm and releases a shockwave similar to Model Liger Zero Schneider’s “Buster Slash” attack.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero Jaeger’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Charge Shot: An attack where Model Liger Zero Jaeger fully charges the Arm Buster and releases a large blast.
Strike Laser Claw: Model Liger Zero Jaeger’s Overdrive attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero Jaeger releases a shockwave that severely damages the opponent.


=Model Liger Zero Panzer=
User: Raye
Weapons: Arm Buster, Hybrid Cannons (mounted on the Model’s back), Missile Pods

Raye’s second Model, Model Liger Zero Panzer is a heavily armed and armored Model capable of great power, but limited mobility. Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Buster Arm is twice as powerful as the Arm Busters of the other Liger Models, but is incapable of charging its power. Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Hybrid Cannons are twin barreled 30mm laser cannons capable of blasting a hole through most substances. Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Overdrive attack, Burning Big Bang, is the most destructive Overdrive other than Model Liger Zero X’s “Energy Driver” and Model Liger Zero Empire’s “Imperial Strike” and “Imperial Cannon”, utilizing both the twin Hybrid cannons, and the 40 missile launchers located throughout the Model’s armor.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero Panzer’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Hybrid Cannon: Model Liger Zero Panzer fires the Hybrid Cannons on its back.
Burning Big Bang: Model Liger Zero Panzer’s Overdrive attack. Model Liger Zero Panzer fires the Hybrid Cannons on its back as well as the Missiles, severely damaging all enemies in its path.

By crimson who are you talking about. Because if you are referring to the snakeman model King reaper made is "crimson" that supposedly me? Just wondering.

[RyuReiatsu]

DP for an update:

I've finally finished reshading the arms on my previously finished sprites, and finished the Rock-Off sprite where his arms blur. I've fixed the shading on Raye's left arm and produced my first sig in the "Mako Ai's Random WTF?! Moments" Series.

Vega's pop-eye arm is very odd.
If you could fix that, it would look better already.

As for scratch, not like I 'learnt' how to.
I started myself, you've got to put trust in anything you do, put confidence!
Try, over and over again if you wanna get any better.

P.S: I absolutely don't know how to shade, and they, I try to imagine things in reality.

Example:

If the sun is located North West, the shading should correspond to this and that.

Anyways, try to go beyond your limit.
Try, over and over again.

[Ryo Hazaki]

@ Zeta Zero: Really great job on LZ, That's pretty Much how I pictured him. And thanks for the reshaded Vega, I'll get to work reshading the rest of the sheet to look like it.

@ Crimson Hammer: No, Crimson Isn't you. The Crimson from "Pride of Ligers" is an evil crime boss who killed Vega's parents and stole Biometal LZX and LZE (Which he uses.). For the Biometals that Crimson's cronies use, I was planning on finding some that were PD, and the naming sheme is as follows:

Boa ==> Model Snakeman
Duplica ==> Model Geminiman
Blade ==> Model Swordman
Blaze ==> Model Burnerman
Aquatos ==> Model Waveman
Ballast ==> Model Diveman
Crimson ==> Model Liger Zero Empire

Now that I've got the LZ sprite, I can make it look a little more mech-ish and start on Model Liger Zero Empire. Zeta Zero, if you want to do any of the other Liger Models, go ahead. Just say if you want to do it, and I'll PM you the details.

On the update front, I've added Darx's PD Ride chaser, and using the transparency option on MS paint (Which I didn't know it had), put Vega on it.

NOTE: The warning on the sheet applies ONLY to the Vega Obscura sprites, NOT TO THE RIDE CHASER, THAT'S STILL PD!!! Any way, here's Vega on his Ride Chaser, Zeronix:

[Xterra]

I'm guessing you're not planning on submitting that into SpritesInc.'s PD page since it says in your 'sig' that it isn't PD at all.

In a way that's good because SpritesIn.'s frowns upon those 'sigs'.

Nice update on Vega though. Very nice. Might I suggest that you change the bike a bit though? Making a better bike than that would make your sheet fully non-PD and rock solid unbreakable. The fact that DarX PD bike is in your non-PD sheet kind of messes up the mood you're going for.

I'd say that you make a new better bike off of that bike that's already there.

(EDIT)-AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T ADOPT CRYSTAL!!

[ZetaZero]

@Mako: You still haven't fix the arms like I told you to. >_> Or did you make that sheet before you read my post? Oh, and I'm guessing you're using paintbucket to recolor? Because if you've been using the mass-recolor technique you would have recolored the feet as well.

@Xterra: Did Mako said it was PD before? *Confused*

[RyuReiatsu]

@Mako: You still haven't fix the arms like I told you to. >_> Or did you make that sheet before you read my post? Oh, and I'm guessing you're using paintbucket to recolor? Because if you've been using the mass-recolor technique you would have recolored the feet as well.

@Xterra: Did Mako said it was PD before? *Confused*

She may have not read our posts, I told her to fix that 'pop eye arm' too :P.

In any cases, try editting his hair, they look too similar to Vent.
You may be able to improve even more by doing that.

[Kilik 64]

Was that Liger Zero model going to be the form the character in development uses?

[Ryo Hazaki]

@ Zeta Zero: Yeah, I made the sheet before you posted, but I've got the new sheet here. And yes, I used the Mass Recolor trick, but only on the shirt and pants. I recolored the arms and shoes by using the pencil tool. BTW, I use MS Paint.

Also, I never said Vega was PD, but you can never be too careful. Besides, I removed the "sig" on the sheet because it was taking up too much room.

@ Killik 64: Yeah, Model Liger Zero is Vega's Model, and to avoid any confusion, Here's who gets what model:

Model Liger Zero: Vega
Model Liger Zero Schnieder: Vega
Model Liger Zero X: Vega
Model Liger Zero Jaeger: Raye
Model Liger Zero Panzer: Raye

@ Ryu Reiatsu: I Fixed what poses still had "Popeye Arms". Secondly:

GIRL?! GIRL?! WHAT THE FUCK EVER GAVE YOU THAT IDEA?! I'M A GUY!!! THIS IS THE FIFTEENTH TIME THIS HAPPENED!!! YES, TWO BALLS, A DICK, DEEP VOICE, THE WORKS!!!

sorry. I just get a little aggrivated when someone calls me a girl.

In other news, I'm still working on Model LZ, using the Liger zero figure for a reference, and I've started WTF?! 2.

[ZetaZero]

Almost everyone uses MS Paint around here. Photoshop can't make sprites. >_<

Er... I didn't use "He" or "She" in my posts and used "Mako" instead because I was unsure of your gender. Well at least I know now.

Not a lot of guys would make a female Navi.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, then I'm different.

Anyway, I've finished WTF?! 2 and finished the Liger Series Biometals!

On the Biometals, there's a challenge:

Name each Biometal correctly and you get a cookie. For every one you get wrong you lose a cookie.

Finally I fixed the head on Model LZ, adding a black detail to the head (If you look at the various pics floating around, you'll notice it.), which also serves to break up the white on the head.

[♠Dameon♠]

On the Biometals, there's a challenge:

Name each Biometal correctly and you get a cookie. For every one you get wrong you lose a cookie.



Biometals, X, Z, H, F, L, P, W and, O.

[Ryo Hazaki]

No, I'm talking about their actual names not their bases. And OX wasn't used as a base.

[♠Dameon♠]

No, I'm talking about their actual names not their bases. And OX wasn't used as a base.

You sure you posted the right thing? all I'm seeing are the biometals from ZX without any changes to them... The only other things there are the WTF thing, and some sprites of your character using biometal LZ.

[ZetaZero]

Er, all you did was add a black trim. It's too black. It messes up the head and looks out of place.

[Ryo Hazaki]

I posted the wrong thing. Here it is:

[Kilik 64]

Not a lot of guys would make a female Navi.
Does that make me special, then?

[Loki]

These Livemetals are nothing but recolors with minor edits. Try editing them some more, okay?

[Xterra]

Not hijacking or anything. But I believe this is what they meant by 'more than a simple edit of an existing livemetal'. There you go Mako', hope you like it.

[RyuReiatsu]

The 5th one reminds me of High Max.

[ZetaZero]

Nice work, Xterra. Did you use the colors from the LZ I made?

[Xterra]

Yeah, I kind of had too. Otherwise it wouldn't match at all.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Thanks Xterra. Now to get to work...

@ RyuReiatsu: I suppose it could be used for Model High Max, but it was suppodsed to be Biometal LZJ (Liger Zero Jaeger).

[RyuReiatsu]

Anyways, I'm sorry for saying that @_@.

Just get to work, and we'll see...
Maybe it'll turn out very kool...

You've gotten a lil better in spriting, don't stop yet..



P.S: I only know Liger Zero from Zoids, I'm an ignorant! >_<...

[Ryo Hazaki]

That's where the "Liger Series" Models come from, Liger Zero and its various CAS units and the Empire and X variants from "Zoids: Legacy".

Anyway, I'll try to have the Biometals up by tomorrow at the earliest.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, DP for an update!

First, I've decided to remove the black trim on Model LZ, so I needed to repost WTF?! 2.

Next is the remaining LZ biometals. Now, before you start complaining about me needing to scratch or use a different base for the Biometals, consider the source material. Each of the various Zoids that were turned into models were all either Liger Zero or one of its CAS units, and in the case of LZE, a variant and its CAS unit (LZX).

Finally, is the main bad guy of "Pride of Ligers" himself, Crimson! (I used one of the citizens for a base and scratched the hair, so the hair didn't turn out too good.) And here's his biographical data:

=Crimson=
Age: Unknown
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Red
Biometal: LZE
Biography: Real name unknown. Crimson gained his current name from his red eyes and insatiable bloodlust. Crimson visited the Obscura household hoping to purchase one of the remaining Liger Biometals. When Dr. Obscura refused, Crimson slew him and his wife, but failed to kill Vega who was hidden inside a closet. Crimson afterwards stole the Biometals LZX and LZE but failed to make LZX reveal his powers. Using the power of LZE and Model Liger Zero Empire, he built a crime syndicate whose power was unparalleled. After his “empire” was established, he began a campaign to locate the other four Liger Biometals, slaying all who opposed him, human or Reploid. With an army of resurrected Vile series robots, and several humans who wielded powerful Biometals, he quickly attracted the attention of the Guardians. However, his downfall came at the hands of the sole surviving Obscura family member, Vega, and the LZX Biometal. Crimson was killed and Biometal LZE destroyed at the hands of Model Liger Zero X’s Energy Driver attack.

=Biometal LZE=
Biography: The fifth Biometal created by Dr. Obscura, LZE was stolen along with Biometal LZX by Crimson. Not much is known about LZE other than the previous fact. Biometal LZE was destroyed along with Crimson at the hands of Model Liger Zero X’s Energy Driver attack.

=Model Liger Zero Empire=
User: Crimson
Weapons: Arm Buster, Claw Arm, Energy Generators (located in its hands), Needle Laser units (located in its shoulders)

Crimson’s Model, Model Liger Zero Empire is also the other Model stolen by Crimson when he killed Dr. Obscura. Model Liger Zero Empire is capable of great destructive power, and was used to kill dozens of Humans and Reploids that tried to stop Crimson. This Model was designed to look identical to Model Liger Zero, except for its red, gold, and black coloring, to give it an “innocent” appearance that fooled its opponents into thinking it was a lesser threat than it actually was. Model Liger Zero Empire is also the only Liger series Model with two confirmed Overdrive attacks, Imperial Strike and Imperial Cannon. Model Liger Zero Empire was destroyed when Model Liger Zero X used its “Energy Driver” Overdrive attack.

Attacks:
Buster Shot: Model Liger Zero Empire’s standard attack. Fires the Arm Buster.
Strike Imperial Claw: Model Liger Zero Empire’s Charged attack. The Claw Arm glows and Model Liger Zero Empire charges forward and steals the opponent’s Biometal.
Imperial Strike: Model Liger Zero Empire’s secondary Overdrive attack. Model Liger Zero Empire fires a storm of Needle Lasers that impact on the opponent and detonate a few seconds later, destroying the opponent’s Biometal.
Imperial Cannon: Model Liger Zero Empire’s Primary Overdrive attack. Model Liger Zero Empire fires a large blast similar to the legendary “Hadoken” technique capable of piercing any shield and causing fatal damage to the opponent.

[Xterra]

I like the new biometals you created. Though, why are the ones posted here better than the ones you posted in the request thread? You posted these ones before you posted the ones over there, yet these are better...

(shapewize, for example, the green one is missing bits in the other thread)

[Ryo Hazaki]

LZP isn't missing anything on the request sheet. It's just the background doing that. I'm redoing the sheet's background now.

[Xterra]

Good, because it looked so weird when the two didn't match.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Fixed. The new request sheet can be found in the relevent thread.

Anyway, how's Crimson? And before anyone asks if I'd sheet him, I've been unable to find walking poses for the base I used, and I'd have to scraatch the Rock-On sequence. (which is basically the rock-off sequence from Vent/Aile/etc. with some new features.) Raye I'm not likely to sheet because I'd have to re-scratch the hair for practically every pose in her sheet, which I just don't feel up to right now. Besides, I'm up to my ears in trying to finish Vega's sheet, and there may be an update on him within the week.

[Xterra]

@Mako: I realise there are no walking poses for the base you used (I think I can guess who the base was pretty easily) therefore you'd have to scratch his legs walking. Here's what you have to do:

1. Take the standing pose and 1 pixel at a time you have to make his arms swing back and forth in unison with his legs at a pixel per frame...

I'm not sure that made any sense to you, but you have to scratch the movement yourself. Okay? So go ahead and tamper and test it a bit untill you get a walking sheet that works perfectly, Okay?

[Ryo Hazaki]

I just may make a request for someone to do Crimson in the future.

Anyway, Update! All of Vega's poses except for those in the red boxes have been finished!

As for the models, I've asked Zane the Last to sheet LZS for me. I decided to keep LZS' Version 1 design since he's supposed to look a little sleeker than the others and doesn't have a Claw Arm like the other models.

[ZetaZero]

Human characters don't need that many frames. I suggest you to focus on the models at the moment.

And Vega looks like he has no fingers right now his hand is just pure color. Use the 2nd skin shade to add detail.

Also, as I've seen, most Zoids Series' main characters wear a vest of some sort. Maybe give him one? XD

[Ryo Hazaki]

Vega's clothing option remains the same. No question about that. And he has so many frames just in case I decide to submit him for a game in the future (Ideally MMZXMR, but unlikely). And in most of his poses, he's making a fist and the back of it is facing the screen, so detail would be pointless, but I'll try to add detail for the rest of the poses. As for the models, I'm still waiting on Xterra's LZ design before I get started on them (Except for LZS). It would be pointless if I started work on say, LZ and then Xterra posted his version and I'd have to start all over again. But I could do some buster poses for LZ (since that's basically his only weapon outside of the Overdrive attack) as soon as I can find the sheet for the Copy X remake.

[ZetaZero]

Copy X remake? What do you mean. Do you mean the full sheet of Copy X's first form.

[Ryo Hazaki]

No, the Copy X model you used as the base for LZ.

[ZetaZero]

This? (http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/8959/modelccopyxxh3.png)

It's in SC's thread, first page.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Yeah. I already found it though (Before your post). Thanks anyway.

[Ryo Hazaki]

DP for an update!

Added detail to Vega's hands. I know, not a big reason to update, but...

[RyuReiatsu]

You pretty much got better, but the hands are seriously bad proportionated, try fixing that.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Another Minor Update! Recolored the soles on the shoes. As for the hands, make up your mind! When they're correctly proportioned, you say they look like Popeye's arms. When I fix the arms, you say the hands are off.

[RyuReiatsu]

I only said the arms got better, but still the hands aren't great.
*Points at: the 1st & 6th row*

In any cases, if I get in your nerves, well then sorry.
I'm just trying to help.

[rickysio]

You have to learn to accept critizm Mako. Stop whining.

The hands are just bundles of color. No discernable appendages.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Ryu: where? The hands on the 1st and 6th rows look fine to me.

[rickysio]

He probably refered to the fists of the 1st row being very fat, and that the 6th row's hand has no thumb. (THE HORROR!)

[Ryo Hazaki]

That little bulge you see on the last 6th row sprite. Do you see it? It's his thumb.

[rickysio]

Does he not have rock on poses? Or injured lie on floor pose?

[Ryo Hazaki]

They're not finished yet. That's why I made the request for the extra heads. Well, his knocked out, and his damaged poses, anyway (last red box). His Rock-On poses are nearly finished (6th row) and will be finished as soon as I get those extra heads. Also, does anyone know where I can find a PD Model Vile? (I need it for a secret project.)

[RyuReiatsu]

Try Pming Darx.

And Rickysio said anything needed.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Ryu: You're a girl? Anyway, thanks. I'll ask Darx about Model Vile.

Anyway, I took rickysio's advice and finished the running poses. As for the standing sprites, I'm leaving them as is because when I thinned the fists out, they looked too thin, even when I thinned them only by 1 pixel.

[RyuReiatsu]

Never mind about that post @_@.
So, when are you gonna tell me which facial expressions you want for vega?
Is he older then vent or not? And do you want me to change his eyes + mouth in the mug?

[Ryo Hazaki]

He's 15 years old. I need Normal, Happy, Sad, Angry and wounded. and yes, please change the eyes and mouth. Vega has Black hair and Blue eyes. (I may have said this to you before, but I tend to forget things.)

[RyuReiatsu]

Never mind about that, I saw what you requested to Zane.
You asked him to make the mugs, why would I do it too >_>?

I just hate it when peopel do that >_>''

[Ryo Hazaki]

As I said in Zane's topic:

I needed mugs for LZS, not vega. You can still do his (Vega's) if you want. Sorry if I wasn't clear earlier. I figured it'd be best if the person sheeting LZS did the LZS Mugs as well.

[RyuReiatsu]

As I said in Zane's topic:

I needed mugs for LZS, not vega. You can still do his (Vega's) if you want. Sorry if I wasn't clear earlier. I figured it'd be best if the person sheeting LZS did the LZS Mugs as well.

Oh well, then I'll do it.

How's his personality?

Like, an irritated Toughie? or anything?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Sorry for not clarifying that earlier. Did you mean Vega's or LZS'?

[RyuReiatsu]

Forget it, just read that post up there.

[Ryo Hazaki]

I'll just post Vega's Bio:

=Vega Obscura=
Age: 15
Hair: Black
Eyes:Blue
Biometals: LZ, LZS, LZX
Biography: The main hero of “Pride of Ligers”. At the age of 5, he witnessed the murders of his parents by Crimson, who stole the Biometals LZX and LZE while Vega was hidden in a closet. Afterwards, he moved in with family friends, the Achikawa family. At the age of 15, he was given the Biometal LZ by an unknown figure. When Boa attacked the school with his snake Mechaniloid and his Model Snakeman, seeking the LZ Biometal, Vega fought him by merging himself with the newly revealed Biometal LZ and becoming Model Liger Zero. Afterwards, Vega left on a journey to find the remaining Liger series Biometals and avenge his parent’s murders with his friend Raye Achikawa.

As for personality, think Kira Yamato from the first Gundam SEED series. He's kindhearted, even gentle, but when his loved ones are threatened, he'll fight and fight to win.

[RyuReiatsu]

I'll just post Vega's Bio:

=Vega Obscura=
Age: 15

Could he go into "SEED Berserk Mode" Too :D?

Haha, sorry making fun of you @__@.
Alright, I'll work on that now.
I was asking about his personality because I wanted to make the eyes according to that.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Ah, don't worry about making fun of me. My therapy's really helping me with that.

[RyuReiatsu]

I'll use Giro as a base instead, if that's fine with you, since he has the same bangs?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Actually, that will work just fine. I actually tried using Giro's mugs as a base. By the time I managed to remove the red triange and glasses, I had my 4th mental breakdown and had to quit.

[RyuReiatsu]

Actually, that will work just fine. I actually tried using Giro's mugs as a base. By the time I managed to remove the red triange and glasses, I had my 4th mental breakdown and had to quit.

Ah, well I can work on Giro so it'll be fine.
Soo... want rounder eyes or sharpy ones?

[Ryo Hazaki]

What do you mean? Can you give some examples?

[RyuReiatsu]

Well, round eyes are more gentle.

Like, imagine Rock, from the original Series.
And Zero, Zero has sharp and not very gentle eyes compared to Rock who has big and round funny eyes.

[Ryo Hazaki]

A little of both. Not as sharp as Zero's but not as round and funny as Rock's. He's gentle, but has had some past trauma. (Watching you parent's murder really does a lot to a 5 year old)

[RyuReiatsu]

A little of both. Not as sharp as Zero's but not as round and funny as Rock's. He's gentle, but has had some past trauma. (Watching you parent's murder really does a lot to a 5 year old)

Alright, I'll try to change the eyes if possible, but it'll look a bit of a recolor >_<.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Don't worry about it. Just do your best.

[RyuReiatsu]

Sorry, I was eating and making the color palette and er... my bro's taking the comp. So I'll make it later on.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Whenever's best for you.

[RyuReiatsu]

Okay, totally sorry.
I had hard time choosing the color palette, since Giro's hair has a tons of colors.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Tell me about it. That was mental breakdown #3.

[Rave T-blade]

I only did a slight edit to Keith(Normaly I named him Akutsu) mug with giro as base:p So why do you guys have problems? or should I re-colour giro's mug(just his original colour) just to help RyuReiatsu out a little bit? then he can do the rest with your vega's mug.

Ryu, you may chose this yourself. even if I've put in my thread that I was going to sleep...

[Ryo Hazaki]

Ask Ryu about that. I personally think that it would help. The reason it gave me so many problems, was because I had never done ZX mugshots and the JPEG'd (Appearance only) images made it worse.

[RyuReiatsu]

Sorry, I just came back.
A helping hand is always welcomed ^^''.

But well, go to bed dude.
Anyways, it's 11:20 and I'm kinda dizzy (Well duh I slept at 5 Am for absolutely no reason yesterday! I'm stupid >_>...)

So I'll get off the comp already (well, the worse is that my bro just lent it to me)

[Ryo Hazaki]

I needed to take a break from spriting Vega, so I came up with this at about 11pm last night: Model VX3 (Vile X 3) (BBD's PD X3 Vile there for reference):

[Rave T-blade]

It looks decent(I'm going to post a recouler of giro, so I didn't saw all of it good) looks nice:) And this will help Ryu with making Vega a bit easier(I used my char's hair colour, to make it easier for myself):

Edit: It looks good, like I just said, just do something about his legs, it's too little, compared to his customed MMX 4(I think)-kind of legs.

Another edit: It doesn't look like a model, it looks like the real thing, almost like the real thing.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Seroiusly? Cool. If the model doesn't work out, I've got a good ZX-styled X3 Vile to work with. Anyway, Nice work on the mugs, I'm sure Ryu will be pleased.

[Xterra]

Very interesting Vile Mako'! If you plan to sheet it, I plan to view and enjoy it.

[Ryo Hazaki]

I'm actually planning on just that. And making his X8 version.

[Xterra]

Oooh...I'm much more interested in his X8 version...

Because I also plan to do something with Lumine rather than let him rot...

[Ryo Hazaki]

You don't know how weird it is to have a sprite appreciated by you so quickly. But I'll try to have his X8 version done by tomorrow. Then I'll start sheeting them.

[RyuReiatsu]

It looks decent(I'm going to post a recouler of giro, so I didn't saw all of it good) looks nice:) And this will help Ryu with making Vega a bit easier(I used my char's hair colour, to make it easier for myself):

Another edit: It doesn't look like a model, it looks like the real thing, almost like the real thing.

Thanks a bunch man! But I've got to run already >_<.

At least, I prepared the color palette (that's the least I could do)
It's not my comp after all =|

@Mako: AWESOME!

[rickysio]

That gun of Vile's blends into his helmet.

[Ryo Hazaki]

His helmet's in front of the gun.

Anyway, two updates!

First is a present for Xterra: Model VX8! (By present I mean he can have it, sheet it, whatever.)

Second is another model in the Liger series: Trinity Liger!

[RyuReiatsu]

I still can't take the computer for long (well, my bro's bored these days...so he monopolizes the computer.)

For now, I'll just make a minor edit *I'm adding a spike in front of the forehead* And will color the hair + eyes. I'll edit the eyes later on, I'm sorry.

EDIT: Actually, I've got more time, I'm working on the eye atm.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Cool. Can't wait for it to be finished.

[Aen]

Wow, Model VX8 looks quite... Muscular.
Heh heh, model VX8. The vegetable drink. Heh heh.

[Ryo Hazaki]

*cocks shotgun* I swear, one more bad joke, and the joke teller gets it!

[Aen]

Hey, I'm not a joke teller!
But I'll tell 'er a joke if you want. XDDDDDD

[Ryo Hazaki]

*points shotgun at Aen* 1... 2... 3.... *pulls trigger*

[Aen]

I'm sorry, Aen is not avalible right now; he is in the party thread looking for Terry. Please send a message after the beep.

[Kairos]

*Send Homing missle after Aen*

There we go.

[Loki]

All three of you, STOP. You're gonna turn this into a recreation of Zy's thread.

[Ryo Hazaki]

You're right. *drags Aen off to the party thread* Rags, PF, you're welcome to join me in destroying Aen if you wish.

[rickysio]

Right. If I see this again... there's no wonder where my mouse is going to click...

That VX8 Could use some reshaping the T shape in his helm.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, since it's Xterra's now, I think I could let him worry about that.

Current projects:
Sheeting Model VX3
Fixing Model TL
Finishing Vega

[Ryo Hazaki]

Update for Vega!

I've finished his jumping poses and recolored all remaining poses that I still need the head for. This will be the last update for Vega until someone decided to do my request.

[Rave T-blade]

He looks like he only looks forward instead of a little bit looking up

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, rarely do people look up when they're jumping. (Besides, I was getting antsy and wanted to make more progress on Vega.)

Anyway, here's part 3 in my "Mako Ai's WTF? Moments": Vega and Raye encounter their first final boss.

[RyuReiatsu]

Anyway, here's part 3 in my "Mako Ai's WTF? Moments": Vega and Raye encounter their first final boss.

This isn't very enjoyable, I mean... It's only a picture with texts.

Instead, make panels, to make it feel more comic-ish.

Anyways, I'm soooo tired... so going to bed...(I just woke up, so I didn't work on your stuffs. I'm barely on the computer these days, sorry.)

[Ryo Hazaki]

I'm using the WTF series to get my Comic skills up. Besides, before I can make the WTF series look any better, I'd need some ZX backgrounds so they'd look better than just on the green background.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, a minor update:

I've made a sprite of Vega as he would appear at the age of 19 (And were in ZXA). Sheeting is unlikely at this time.

Also, Can anyone show me where I can find Random PD Humans in MMZX style? I'm planning on making Crimson's 'Generals'.

[Zomaxiee]

I like him with the sleeves much more then what he looks sleeveless.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, Vega dresses a little more conservatively, since he's a guardian by the time ZXA occours in the storyline.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well, Update!!!

First, I've finished all six of Crimson's Generals from POL.
(Left-to-Right: Boa, Duplica, Blaze, Blade, Ballast, and Aquatos)


Secondly, I've begun Sheeting Duplica, and am looking for Ideas for her Models. Currently, she has Model Geminiman (Zane's sheeting a female variant of his Model GM for me.), and I was thinking either Model A (From ZXA, obviously), or a Model Axl.

[Xterra]

Very nice. I've already commented on them in the critique thread.

I also like what you've done with the generals. Can't wait to see more...

[Ryo Hazaki]

Outside of Duplica, that's all you're going to see of the Generals.

[Xterra]

Oh...Well....Duplica's still awesome. That's okay with me then.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Still, if you want more poses, you have my permission to do all of them besides Duplica.

Also, for her (Duplica's) second model: ZXA Model A, Model AXL, or something else?

[Xterra]

Not ZxA. That's way too close with Ashe's Model A.

You need something more complex and unique. Model Lumine sounds more appropriate with her very light colored hair...I'd say you do that...

[Ryo Hazaki]

I could give her Model Lumine as well as Model Axl, and create a Model LA Double-Rock-On.

Now to find the proper materials...

[Xterra]

(O.O)!? That's a wonderfull idea!! If you need any help with La. Just ask.

I'm a huge fan of both Lumine and AxlCrossLumine. I have a pic for you.

I've done a recolor asked to me by CH of Axl in Lumine's armor.

Do you want to see it as a reference? I can PM the pic right to you!

[Ryo Hazaki]

I've seen the pic and made a recolor of BBD's PD axl for a reference.

Nice pic, by the way.

[Xterra]

Thanks. Glad you liked it. Is it of use to you?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Actually it is. it can help me with the pallete once I get the materials.

[Xterra]

Good. Also, when you said BBD's PD Axl...Which one, could you show it?

Also, if I were you, PM BioRanger. He's made the best Axl model so far.

Using my palette it'd be so simple to recolor his if he gave permission of use.

Wait a sec, wasn't BioRanger's Axl PD anyway? *goes to check*

(EDIT)-Heck yeah!! It's on PD Inc for anyone to use!!

That could be Duplica's Axl model, since it's the best I've ever seen!!

Then I can do the recolored LumineAxl armored one for you!!

[Ryo Hazaki]

I'll do you one better.

How about the actual recolor itself?

http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=6046&d=1180570170

[Xterra]

Fine, but I'll do it for you, okay? I've really wanted to do this for a long time!

[Ryo Hazaki]

Go Right ahead.

Were'nt you working on a Model Lumine anyway?

[Xterra]

Yeah...Kind of...I want to...but so far it isn't so good.

I've seen better Lumines made before, and I'm trying to perfect it.

(EDIT)-BTW-I need to recolor it off my pic...the other recolor is off.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Go right ahead.

Weren't you working on a model Lumine, anyway?

[Xterra]

You repeated the first post over my reply...

Why you did so...I don't know...But this is the first one I've recolored properly:
http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/7027/modellumineaxlkx9.png

[Advent Axl]

The colors don't look like well, axl, also why is the hair small

[Xterra]

What are you looking at, the white one or the others?

It's been halfway recolored for all except that one fully recolored one.

That's Axl's Lumine Armor he gets in X8. You of all people should know that.

As for the hair, does the word model ring a bell!?

Models are never exact copies of their originals.

If we were spriting the real Axl in Zx style, it'd resemble yours more.

Also, FYI, your Axl's hair is way too large...

[Jace]

@AA-Well, it's not really Axl. It's A model of Axl and X. Like how Model HX is a model of Harpuia and X. That's why the hair is small.

[Xterra]

Thanks Jace, but one more thing to add to that...

It's LUMINE Axl...That's why he's white. Haven't you seen that armor of his?

Also, like Jace said, if it were just Model A, it'd be the ZxA version...

[Terry von Feledae]

Isn´t the official name for his arour "White Axl"?
That whole it-has-something-to-do-with-Lumine is just an assumption.
Nothing for sure right now.

...Just wanted to have that thrown out there.

[Xterra]

Um...Terry'? Just so you know...:

1.Lumine's color scheme matches perfectly
2.Scar disapears off of Axl's face
3.The gem color is exact with Lumine's
4.And it's been known since the release it was meant to be Lumine

(especially after the gem broke and Lumine embeded himself into it)

There's hard proof shown to us by Capcom. Don't deny that.

Especially since you're always the one defending Capcom.

For once I defend them, and you interject again against my ideas.

Please don't. 'White Axl' is Axl imbued with Lumine's powers/looks.

...Just wanted to have that thrown out there.

[crimson hammer]

It is pretty obvious they even had that ominous glow inside the broken gem aswell, as if something was still alive in there. Also another thing. Axl was unable to stay transform forever but lumine as a perfect copy could...that another thing the white armor can do.

[Terry von Feledae]

I don´t see 1-3 as proof - it can be anything.
and I want your source for 4.

You aren´t defending them, by the way. Unless there´s a source i haven´t even HEARD of for 4.

[Xterra]

You skipped #5 provided by CH.

BTW-One of the many sources was Capcom showing us in the most secret ending Axl's gem embeded with Lumine's 'vines'. It also glowed in there...

It was after watching that clip that the code was released for you to restart the game as 'White' Axl. In reality, Capcom said 'Here, play as Lumine'.

[Terry von Feledae]

sounds more plausible now, but don´t take it as a fact.

[Xterra]

Sorry for editing so much, but I re-edited my previous post.

It was first shown by Capcom in the clip, then the code, then the game.

[Jace]

Xterra, don't get ahead of yourself. It might, MIGHT have something to do with Lumine. I know it looks like it's almost a sure fire thing but we won't know anything untill Capcom comes out with MMX9. Right now it's all just an edjucated(sp?) guess.

[Xterra]

BTW-Spelling, wrong. It's educated without a 'j'.

As for Lumine. I'm not just talking about looks. I'm also talking about attacks, Capcom's little hints as it was released to the public, and what he does...

[Jace]

Well, attack wise the only thing that Lumine and White Axl have in common is the inf. hover and the inf. transform bar. And like I said, that's still not confirmed. There is more than likely more to it then we realize.

[Xterra]

I agree. There's most likely more similarities than we picked up...

But I'm just basing my arguments off of what we realised.

It seems obvious to me with what we've been able to gather so far.

[Jace]

I know, I agree with you that it more than likely has something to do with Lumine but I don't want you to get your hopes up either. Although, I do have a theory/story idea based around a possible X9...

[Xterra]

What? That Lumine awakens inside his gem and tries to take over?

That'd actually make alot of sense, but totally screw up CmX...

Unless...In CmX Axl was seperated from them, and X and Zero were surprised to see him all of a sudden. Maybe, after the 'incident' they split up...

Maybe it does make sense after all!! What's your idea Jace? (PM me)

As for getting back onto topic...You guys think the colors are good?

I tried to match the colors exactly with 'White' (Lumine) Axl's colors.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Looks great. As for the Repeated post, my internet was acting crazy when I posted.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Forgot to add:

UPDATE:

Finished Duplica's running, unconscious, and Rock-On (Oustide of the black boxes for the last two):

[Xterra]

Awesome! And you said it'd take a month to finish...

So far nearly half is done, and it hasn't been 15 days yet either.

I'll bet that you'll have her done by two weeks from now.

[Ryo Hazaki]

True, but I could run into the same problem I have with Vega.

Also, Can you make the ZXA Rock-On sequence for the AX Model sheet as well as the Model AL and Model Lumine sheets?

[Xterra]

The one I'm recoloring? With Duplica in the rock-on? Sure, I'll try my best!

[Ryo Hazaki]

Great! Can't wait for your next update.

[Xterra]

Heh! Funny you say my update when it's your thread...*laughs*

(not hijacking)

I'll update soon. Like I've said, I need to let my eyes rest a while...

That was one tough WarRock to sprite on a DS...

[Ryo Hazaki]

I saw it. And you have my permission to post your Duplica-related work here. (Just covering all the bases)

[Xterra]

Okay then. The next update will be her rock-on+Ax...(on one sheet)

It'll be the easiest. Then I'll update the large Duplica sheet with the entire rock on before she becomes the Model. That's alot more spriting.

And finally, I'll recolor all of Ax into La.

(the final will be just the Lumine one...that I'll post sometime this century)

[Ryo Hazaki]

Thanks. The Duplica Rock-on will take a lot of work off of me as well.

As for Lumine, I know someone made one. I'll try to find it.

[Xterra]

There were several people that made them, including Speed' (ironically, the only other Turk on this side beside me), but they were only standing poses.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Still, it's better than nothing.

[Xterra]

Then show it. I looked everywhere and couldn't find it.

The search bar on this forum doesn't always pick up what you ask of it.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Speed's is in his "X8 Models" thread, and I'm looking for the others now.

[Xterra]

Yep, that's the one. I remember trying to help him with the head.

That was back when I didn't know too much of X8, and wasn't very good at spriting. I'm certain now that I can redo the head to make it more perfect.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Good. (Still can't find the others. I know there was at least one more.)

[Xterra]

There was, it was the standing one I mentioned that wasn't Speed's.

I also happen to have an X series styled Lumine, but that doesn't count.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Well:

UPDATE:

Since Zane's working on my Vega request, it reminded me to get off my lazy ass and work on his mugs.

They're not perfect, but they'll do until RyuReiatsu comes back online with the finished product.

Speaking of Mugs, I was wondering about using SC's Model Axl Mugs for Duplica's Model Axl, But the pose would have to be changed, to resemble Duplica's.

[Xterra]

SC made mugs for his Axl? I only thought he had the sheet and not the mug.

Yeah, I guess so. Maybe. Let's see if it fits the style first of all.

[Ryo Hazaki]

First page of his topic, next to his Model Axl Link.

[ZetaZero]

That's because I requested him to make one. I created one later on, I think it's better, want me to post it?

[Ryo Hazaki]

Yes, Please do.

[ZetaZero]

I've modified his sheet a bit to suit my needs. The Mugs are at the bottom. A little less Vent-like, I guess. SC's being the rightmost mug.

http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/990/axlzxscyh3.png

[Ryo Hazaki]

Hmm. Could work. Let's see what MMJuno says.

[ZetaZero]

It doesn't look that very guy-ish guy look either, so you can tweak it a bit to make it female...

[Ryo Hazaki]

The Gem could be bigger, though.

[Rave T-blade]

just want to comment on your mug mako, make his eyebrows the same colour as his hair, it will look better, alot better.

[Ryo Hazaki]

I'll get to work on that. (Damn random pixels!)

Anyway, finished Duplica's getting up poses.

[ZetaZero]

The Gem could be bigger, though.
Actually I thought it'd look more realistic if it was that size. Well, you can change it, I really don't mind.

[Ryo Hazaki]

Remember, Axl's gem is actually bigger than X's and Zero's, so I think the model's should me bigger as well.

Besides, we'll have to wait for MMJuno to get back online for his comments.

[Zomaxiee]

I love how Duplica is turning out, even though she is just Ashe with Aile's bangs.

[Ryo Hazaki]

She's currently ahead of schedule.

In other news, WHERE'S MMJUNO!!!!

[Xterra]

Shh!! I'm trying to hide from you!! *dashes back away to do stuff*

[Ryo Hazaki]

Mmjuno! Get Yor Ass Back Here And Look At These Goddamn Mugs For Model Axl!!!!!!

[Xterra]

Well, I'm here...But I don't see anything! *runs off again...*

[Ryo Hazaki]

*chases after MMJuno*

*Drags him back here*

Check the previous page, you team-killing fucktard!

[Xterra]

Oh! I see! It was because Zz posted it through a link that I didn't notice!

Those are very good. We should use the one that Zz made, but make sure to edit it more like the one that SC's looks like. That'd be best for looks...

Bye! *runs off again* (I'm very busy, don't bother me right now)

(EDIT)-Team-killing @#$%tard!? That's harsh. I thought you wanted my help...

If not, I don't need to, and can do what I want to right now. Hmnf!

*goes away for a longer time not to come back*

[Ryo Hazaki]

I'm just kidding!!!

I just say that to all my freinds.

[Xterra]

TEAM-KILLING @#$%TARD!!! What the hell kind of a friend are you!?

[Hidden Fun Stuff]

Now, now. Why don't we all calm down....
