eCut Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I also changed his hair to look more detailed, although I'm not sure if it's working l0l The changes look better! That same part of the cape still bothers me though. It looks blocky. :P Like it doesn't flow right. I am not really sure how to explain it since I am HORRID at capes. :E And the new one's forehead looks a tad large but otherwise a good lineart! As for your style, it seems to fit FE to me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliban of Sycorax Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 You just choose more interesting angles to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthenaWyrm Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) But whenever I just draw the face straight onto the template it always looks better D: Edited December 12, 2012 by AthenaWyrm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanami Touko Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) So... do that? Just do what makes you feel most comfortable when spriting. It's not about the process, it's about the outcome. No one cares how you sprite, that's up to you. They just care what it looks like at the end.

AthenaWyrm Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 I really want to, but I am really curious about why the original drawing looks fine but the sprite version is very disproportionate. Kind of dumb, but yeah. Anyways, I'll just start drawing like that, at this point I don't think I'll ever figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanami Touko Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 You should probably stick to what works over everything else. If you can't figure something out, leave it for a bit, get back to it later. Don't stress over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthenaWyrm Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Some random practice, I'll re-do KOS-MOS when I think I can make her well. Also, I am willing to take ideas for my next practice mugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanami Touko Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 you're mixing FE8 colors with FE7 skin tone. Just want you to know unless that's intentional maybe try someone from one of the FEs? Maaaaybe maria from FE1? She seems like simple enough practice.

Mew Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Ziggy from Xenosaga would be sooo cool! To fit in with your other Xenosaga mugs and to give you practice with more masculine faces, maybe, since I haven't seen many masculine characters from you :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jubby Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I like it :P The clothes, for whatever reason, though, seem somewhat flat or something, though. Are you planning to submit it to the remake thingy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alabaster Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 it's definitely not bad! but she looks generic? we know maria is a little, childish and happy girl, but your sprite's face has no expression (and imo she looks older) XD also, her hair could be better °w° Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mew Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Second one is super cute aahh I dig it. Maria though, I feel like, if you changed her hair color to blue this would be a great Rei Ayanami sprite, which isn't much fitting of Maria. Maybe bigger eyes and a tinier body to help make her look younger? Rounding her jaw a bit may also help her look younger. And the hair is still kinda blah, I think there's a bit more curl to it in her OA, though I suppose it depends which you're referencing. I think you did a great job fixing the clothes. The only thing about that is that the collar is the same value as the other parts of the dress, making it seem like the collar is sewn flat to a turtleneck.

AthenaWyrm Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) Alright then, I'll get to that sooner or later. In the meanwhile, have a Ziggy Edited December 14, 2012 by AthenaWyrm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 On his face its from the left (OPV) and his neck has it on the right... And his neck still strikes me as a tad long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramy Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) the hair plus the mug kinda reminds me of Kanji Tatsumi Edited December 15, 2012 by Kramgnauh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthenaWyrm Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 Scrapped my current projects in order to focus on getting down the style of FE better. Can anyone see any problems with the anatomy or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
