His name is Joshua. He is 100% custom made by me, with general LSW Style sprites for reference.

They're... The same sprite.

Really?

Joshua is mainly focused on the power of his attacks, so he uses excess energy to boost their power. Jimmy doesn't have this ability, so he mainly focuses more on the speed of his attacks. They're also identical twins, but Jimmy dyes his hair.

That sounds...

Lazy.

Looks a lot like these sprites: http://spriters-resource.com/gameboy/dbzlegend/

Heck, the first sprite you posted is even wearing DBZ clothing.

Zone
08-08-10, 04:16
They're in the style of LSW sprites, yes.

Fugsnarf
08-08-10, 04:18
Is it 100% custom or did you use those sprites as templates?

Zone
08-08-10, 04:19
Well, the first one was, but a couple of poses for the sheets themselves I edited from the sprites. Shadowhunter was the one who ripped them.

Zone

Seriously? No more replies? This took forever to make.

Anyway, now Jimmy wears a hat

You've already got more replies-per-sprite than most people do on this forum, but alright.

First off, Jimmy is just a recolor of Joshua. Literally the only 2 things on his sheet that aren't on Joshua's are the second pose on the first row and the very last row. And saying "they are recolors because they are twins" is silly. Twins don't need to dress the same way, or stand in the same way, or use the same hairstyle.[EDIT: seens like you added a hat to Jimmy while I wasn't looking! Either way, he's still pretty much the same, but now with the same hat pasted into every sprite[except 2 of them], although I give you a thumbs up for at least changing him a bit]

Seeecondly, the "stance" that you animated looks rather bad. The only thing Joshua moves is his hands, which for that matter are a mesh of pixels and for the most part don't look like hands. I suggest redoing the hands[on all sprites that use them] and making Joshua move his body and his arms in the stance, too.

Third, the mugshots look bad. The hair looks off style and seens like you just copy-pasted it on a character's mugshot. Even then, it looks nothing like it does on the actual sprites.

And finally, this one is mostly an opinion, but I think ignoring the 3-colors-per-sprite limit of the style kinda ruins it's charm.

I liked Jimmy with a buzzcut better. Give him new clothes so that they'll look different.

Cobalt speaks the truth.

Okay, a couple of updates to the both of them:

They bare an uncanny resemblance to Android 18 (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/uploads/17982/android18.jpg)from Dragonball Z, which I doubt you were going for. They're also awfully flat, why aren't they shaded? Even as is they're way too many colors deep to even try to pretend to be 8-bit styled, so why not try for 16-bit?

Zone
09-08-10, 05:14
I'm not trying to be 8-bit
I can't shade, I've tried and failed (http://i39.servimg.com/u/f39/15/49/57/86/igam_g11.png)
I was trying to give them long hair, so that was what I was going for.

Question

What's so terrible on the last sprite?

Zone
09-08-10, 15:04
This one?
http://i39.servimg.com/u/f39/15/49/57/86/igam_g11.png
It's not shaded well...

Don Kalypso
09-08-10, 15:35
You're kidding, right? That's some pretty good shading you got there.

Zone
09-08-10, 15:36
Really? Wow... I didn't think so...

I am working on a project... To color (and possibly shade) some of the original GameBoy sprites. Here's what I have so far:

http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/8793/theheroes.png

I do plan on coloring all the areas in Pokemon Blue/Red/Green, and the Pokemon, and even some things from other games.

Mind if I bump this? I'm just gunna bump it.

NeoMan
17-08-10, 03:07
You already have a sprite thread. And you shouldn't bump this without an update.

Don Kalypso
17-08-10, 03:09
Zone, you already have a sprite thread here. (http://www.sprites-inc.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=8999) Please use that from now on for all of your sprites. You are only allowed one sprite thread. Please keep this in mind the next time you wish to post up some of your sprites.

Oh, so sorry. I was unfamiliar with the rules. Would it be possible to merge this topic with the other one?

SC Edit: Lucky I was just crossing through, eh?

100% custom? well most ,if not all, are edits of the work of the LSW spriters over at DBZ vortex(most likely edits of someone's "base").

I'm not too sure you did any thing to the this one at all http://i39.servimg.com/u/f39/15/49/57/86/igam_g11.png.

That being said, they are sorta good edits.

Keep working at it and give credit.

Igam IS mine. Never say he's not.

You used a public domain base, am I correct?

Zone
06-09-10, 20:42
For some of them, yes. Could you tell me who made it? I'd like to give proper credit.

NeoMan
06-09-10, 20:51
I don't know thier name, but I know it was someone on this forum.

On to critique.

I like what you did for the hair, but everything else is kinda dull/boring looking. He doesn't realy have any features that make him unique. I don't know how to explain how to fix that, its all personal preferance.

Zone
06-09-10, 20:53
Would shoulder pads make him look more unique?

NeoMan
06-09-10, 20:55
Possibly, but don't stop at just shoulder pads.

Zone
06-09-10, 21:03
Alright.
Maybe a symbol on his chest?

NeoMan
06-09-10, 21:07
That could work too. try it and see how it looks.

Zone
07-09-10, 03:41
How about if I keep that design as his main form and use this as his casual form?

What does his main form look like?

07-09-10, 20:45
Instead of having everyone link to imageshack, just put image brackets in, PLEASE. Since I've already critiqued over on Spriter's Block, There's not much I need to say here.

His armor is still boring, you didn't update the armor.
