CT075 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Never ask for constructive criticism. All you're gonna get is trolling. The sword looks okay, but something about the hilt bothers me. Maybe it's the angle of the crossguard. Try lengthening the part you're actually supposed to grip (The hilt below the crossguard). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanami Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Errr.... nice recolor？ Colors aren't too bad. But as you said the sword leaves alot to be desired. Haven't got much to say really. Giving the sword another dimension (it looks flat at the moment) would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Thank you for that important lesson of lifem cam. I'll try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) Shame, double post... I think I fixed something. It looks better, right? Edited October 11, 2010 by Groner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Not by much. You need to reference the shading of a sword to make the hilt actually seem round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Here's one of the sprites I did. Feel free to use it as a reference for the sword. http://i56.tinypic.com/wgx6p0.jpg /disregard that it's a katana and not a western sword Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 sigh Any better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 The handle needs to be longer, and the yellow thing needs more depth. Reference a real sword photo and some perspective blocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) This is the custom battle sprite for... ehh... that guy And I tried to continue the grip. I added shading in general. Does it look good now? Edit: Also have a look at my personal sword, the Fury Glaive!

shadowofchaos Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 For the sprite: That's not a sword. That's a pillow that looks like a sword ._. As for the sword in the mug, it looks flat. Looks like a piece of wood ._. The weapon icon is "meh". Maybe transparency the background? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) That guy on the map Edited the shading EDIT: I did my personal mug: Edited October 12, 2010 by Groner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peener weener Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 For the Roy recolor, the sword looks like it's made of cardboard. As previously said, try to shade it to make it look round, and use some kind of reference. For the guy thing with sword battle sprite, the sword for some reason reminds me of a butterfly syringe. It looks round, like a tube, and the color isn't... right. As for the personal mug, the outline is too thick. All I can think of right now.

Nanami Touko Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Your personal mug is pretty much just a recolor Lugh with some more hair. More effort next time, eh? Eh... It's a recolor. I don't have much to say on recolors. The shading on the extra hair looks weird. It looks like it's just diagonal lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Remember, these are my first ever sprites. And I didn't say the personal mug was finished, I just didn't have time to add other things and I have a cross-country today, so I had to sleep well. And I did add more on my perso mug that you said. The hair on the left side and in the middle of my face. Edited October 12, 2010 by Groner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 The angle makes it seem like the sword is lodged in his back. Angle the sword some more and it should be fine. Pretty nice recolour, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Updated me personal mug And did my fire archsage battle sprite! AND minor changes in my fury glaive Edit: custom fire tome!Godflare custom fire+wind tome!Blazing wind Edited October 12, 2010 by Groner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Zomg Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 The mug's not bad, but the archsage looks nearly identical to a sage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 (edited) Wind tome doesn't look... windy... at all ._. Maybe try a different palette? The red outline from the base Forblaze tome is making it feel not "windy", despite your attempt at combining them, hence I assume the reason for the name "Blazing Wind".

GR8MasterGab96 Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 Do you like the rest? And yeah, I may switch the red part to a lighter red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
