Nanami Touko Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Your custom colors need more contrast, and your shading needs to be smoother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teapot Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Good grief, what have you done to Idoun. You really need to lay off the pillowing, mate. I mean it. Also, plz2ref other minimugs before attempting your own custom one. Or splice it from existing mugs. I'm fairly certain it isn't that difficult. Your color choices are also particularly bright and unappealing. Less saturation and more contrast are your friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Modified an old facesprite and added Brunya's body. Also added part of Sonia's chest. Fixed hair and hopefully fixed some of the pillowshading. Also color changes. Need opinions on this one before I sheet it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Is that a chocolate (notrly) boner on his forehead orsomething? That would be his hair, it's a fauxhawk. :L Also, new mug. This is Ivan. He's a werewolf, and he's awesome. and russian Beta!Kyle for the win. Of course I used FE7!Zephiel's mouth because I don't know how to do talking frames.

Nanami Touko Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Urgh, stop making your own colors. You're not at the level yet that you can edit them to look good. All you end up doing it making them have not enough contrast, not enough saturation, or both. As for the splice, the neck is wtf long, and the shading under the chin looks extremely splotchy.

Joerachi Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 (edited) EDIT:Ok so Gyazo and SF aren't good friends right now. The shading on the neck is going every which way. If you're gonna neck shade badly, at least do it consistently. Edited June 15, 2011 by Joerachi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 FE8 colors with minor edits. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanami Touko Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 (edited) His neck is still too long, and the under-the-chin shading is still splotchy :E Pull the head down, and then reference Cormag, or Glen, or nonBeta!Kyle for how to shade the neck properly.

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Aaaand... Remake of an old mug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanami Touko Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 First one looks better, second one has chunky pillow shading all over it. I suggest you resplice it, and not try to custom the shading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 Well it doesn't look it. I'll probably redo it, some of the frames make it more obvious. On to something a bit cooler. Rehauls galore. Axel: The thing with both Axel and Darius was the fact that they're swordsmen. Their armor was WAY too bulky to move quickly. So I got rid of most of the armor save for shoulderpads, which almost every FE merc has anyway. Darius: Similar concept. I like using Bazba's arm here, it adds to the character. William: The biggest rehaul. I wanted to splice Elbert's body on, but I also wanted something else. The guy's a prince, after all. So I took the cloak from Aion/Marquess Araphen and did some edits to make it fit. The hair is a combination of Matthew, Gilliam, Lucius, and Ephraim. The thing I didn't like about the old hair was the fact that it wasn't that regal. So I used Lucius to make it look neater, but I still wanted it to be messy so I added Ephraim and Gilliam in here and there and I think it came out quite nicely.

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 Aaaaand more. Simple. Lessee... Sain/Phailywood/Rennac/Ephraim/Villager/Gerik for the hair. Rutger/Moulder/Innes for the body. Also one of Forde's eyes. HOLY FUCK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 I like this one Thanks. This is one of my favorite splices I've made (Seph helped a lot with critiques as well). And some newer ones: Hair. So much issues with hair. Also, this was Tate's head originally but I basically put almost all of Karla on it. Fixing of an older mug. MasterLord!Craig so far.

deranger Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Yeah, hair looks small, which makes the top of her head look small. next one I like, though can't say I'm a fan of your colors. And no offence, but the battle sprite doesn't look shaded (well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caliban of Sycorax Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 Some edited weapon icons from sprites past. Tethys edit, I call it the Gypsy class (blame Hunchback of Notre Dame music). Swordsman edit. Looks a bit more eastern if you ask me. Or desert-like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
