The Joker Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 change things according to eCut's advice. I'm still quite unsure about the mountains. also a couple of things the rest are on the first page since I also updated that. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NICKT™ Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I do favour plenty of your concepts, what you envision is creative, I think, though your delivery tends to fall short, though, for an average spriter I must say you do so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That just means I'll just have to get better. :) hopefully, I will x.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Gabriel Knight Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I think the bottom of your mountains are flat. Maybe add a tile or two to each to make them less uniform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 everyone's getting revamps. psh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthenaWyrm Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 The brown-haired guy is very cross-eyed. A majority of your characters face the same direction. Try changing it up. Have someone face almost directly to the side, or at a 45 degree angle, or have them cowering, or having their head up high and looking down on someone. Also, a lot of them still retain that look of indifference or apathy. They almost look like dolls. I guess my ultimate advice is "Don't be afraid to exaggerate to a degree" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 @AthenaWyrm : Yeah I was trying to use a different head angle with Mystgun but I still suck at it. For now, I'll probably experiment on the expressions of my existing works since I'm in the middle of revamping things and see if I work out something. o_____o also, I tried to improve on this.

deranger Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) The path in the middle still being too straight/square-y/not random (even human made paths aren't straight, especially not in steps like that). Also, there's a bit of tilespam in the ocean. That tileset doesn't really offer much variety in the way of forest, so not much you can do about that. Other than that, a solid but not groundbreaking outdoor map. The mountains look better. Edited May 29, 2013 by deranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 I understand your point but I'll stick with the forest the way it is. I wanted it to be as simple and less complicated as possible. I'm glad the mountains are better than before and I'll do something about the ocean. Thanks for the crit. :) I didn't want this to be a blank reply so here's a little progress report. nothing remarkable. just small improvements.

The Joker Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 yeah. I figured I'd finish them up before messing with the facial features. I'll try to ref official sprites when I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Joker Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 Middle one needs more SPIKEH. I think that's enough. xD tried new pose for variation but failing as of now. Still a lot of weirdness on the eyes. Trying to fix that. Tips would be nice. minor stuff: Bandana not working so I might rework his hair instead. not sure if I posted this.

Crimson Red Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I also think it's rather nice, but if I had to offer critique (not that I'm any good at it, so take it with a grain of salt), the padding on her shoulders looks a little... flat, in that the shading doesn't seem to suggest much of a curve or change of height, though the trim does. Then again maybe it's supposed to look like that but it just struck me as a little awkward. also have you considered changing your title to "UNRIMITIDU BURADU WAKSU"? with description "I ahm da bone of muh sode" *shot* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenh Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I like your stuff and think you're progressing okay but apparently someone says you wanted critiques so... :P The two versions of the cloaked guy look about the same: eye-shapes changed but the dark shading stayed. Added another light color and brightened up the irises, played with the shading, not sure if that made it look any better. Noticed that you can probably afford to bleed lines together more, and have the individual parts of the mug affect each other more. -You don't always have to end things in black or the darkest color; if something matches up/down on the color ramp they look fine when plotted together. -The far side of the body can usually take on darker / more muted shading than the near side. In a lot of your stuff it looks like the shading intensity always stays about the same regardless of placement on the body; varying that up might make things look a little nicer. Also: The collar and cuffs where they reappear from behind the neck are misaligned pretty harshly, might make things look a little lopsided/skewed/smooshed.

The Joker Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 @eCut and Nickt(?): Thanks. Though it still has a lot of cleaning up to do and that's an understatement. I also think it's rather nice, but if I had to offer critique (not that I'm any good at it, so take it with a grain of salt), the padding on her shoulders looks a little... flat, in that the shading doesn't seem to suggest much of a curve or change of height, though the trim does. Then again maybe it's supposed to look like that but it just struck me as a little awkward.also have you considered changing your title to "UNRIMITIDU BURADU WAKSU"?with description "I ahm da bone of muh sode"*shot* aight, I'll look into that. Also, I'll change it when I go back to being Acha. xD stir is muh bode and fayr is muh blad. @Lenh: already sent a pm... o_o tried playing with the expression and now he reminds me of Aizen. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
