Kanami Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 To be completely honest, I really can't say the face and hair are that great. The face in particular doesn't stand out to me at all, but maybe that's just my personal preference. The accessories and body however look great. Especially impressed with the katana. Being a flamer, I'd say the place I dislike the most (think looks wrong) is the hair on the far right. (Beside the shoulders, beneath the Katana) That region looks ugly regardless of preference IMO.

Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 ... ... Kanami, maybe I should start full customing. The parts you bashed on are the original spliced parts, and all the parts you liked are customed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanami Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) Maybe you should? Not something I'm willing to make a decision on. But personally I think you're ready to attempt it. That said, the face doesn't stand out due to personal preference, and it resembles an existing FE character too much for my liking. Everything except the bottom right hair is preference I think (as I said). That corner is a ghastly splice if it's a splice :P (EDIT: There's even a second hair shade stray pixel outside the borderlining there XD) In slight relation I think Astra customs better then he splices. And I know a few great spriters who customed first, then tried splicing so one doesn't always come before the other.

Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 Nah. The hair down there was my attempt at using a curler on her hair and failed. Though, I was always much better at drawing straight hair than curly hair. Curled hair are almost as nightmarish to draw as feet. The face was made of a combination of Marisa and Syrene in the original. I dunno if I'm allowed to change the base for the contest, or I'll probably custom a new version of my personal mug, keeping the same body angle, and re-submit it. But eh. The original has to be noticeable, so if I can't change the base mug, I'm afraid I can't do much to the face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstraLunaSol Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 If you want to make a new personal mug for the contest, you have a day to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 I will do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 Update: Actually, I think I'll keep my entry how it is, except I'm going to fix the hair a bit. I'm not too confident on my customing ability in facial features, and this is taking too long. I will, however, finish my custom personal sometimes. So here's a WIP.

AstraLunaSol Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 See? Told you you'd be able to custom quick because you have previous drawing skills. :P Looking good so far, though you might as well cover the back of the neck my making the hair that falls down a bit thicker to cover it.

Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 Will do. It's still pretty annoying to do, though. And facial features. >____< It's pretty hard to draw in such small spaces. I'm more used to working with 1000 + px canvases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstraLunaSol Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Just ref off previously existing FE mugs to get a general area where facial features are. Then if things look off move them around until they look right. :/ Then again there is a guide that gives you basic proportions.....I just can't link it because I'm on a phone. <_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReaper Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Aw thats so good so far *hates on lumi for being good * <3 love btw lumi can i steal your idea of your entry just for some custom practicing? i wont submit it for anything and i shall credit your idea. pleasee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 @Astra: I'll do that. @The Reaper: Go for it. :) Updated entry: Added a few more hair accessories. Full-customed hair in the back. Friggin' curls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) More Seth reclasses. This time, to Hero. Seth's orginal hair is too neat for Hero so I grew it out a bit. :> I enjoyed this one for obvious reasons.

El Rey León Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 LOL, It's awesome! <3 I see he's got a little Dieck in him. Do Shaman!Seth next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 I used Dieck's body as a base. 8D I will~ OMG challenge is gonna be fun. ...Though I'll have to use a shaman palette for him instead of his regular palette though. :> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstraLunaSol Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 He looks a bit....small. Or just off angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 Elaborate? And the base I used: Naked!Seth~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstraLunaSol Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 I think it's the fact that the shoulder guard. Makes his far arm smaller than it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Odinson Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) Updated version. Y/N? It would be better if you made it a fullbod-*shot* I wish. Edited October 10, 2010 by Luminescent Blade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanami Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) I think you're an Astra type and custom better then you splice after seeing Seth. (Our) Left side shoulder pad looks awkward (jutting out). And the shoulder pads in general seem to be forced on, rather then flowing nicely. With the left pad, it's shading. (Though the right could used shading too) the overall reason I get this impression is because of the border outlining used on the insides. (Belts/bottom of armor) and think it looks better when you used the "darkest skin shade" instead. (The shade used usually to define chins) As for the Halloween entry thing..... Amazing :) Much happier with the hair. It would be better if you made it a fullbod-*shot* Half bodies were bad enough thanks *Looks at Reaper* :P Edited October 10, 2010 by Kanami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
