fuzz94 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I think the capeless unmounted great knight looking guy looks better, although I feel animated the caped version would probably be cooler. (idk if you have those planned yet) I also dig the Reaver looking kind of guy (it's based off the sketch obvi, but it could def be used as a reaver.)

MrStarster Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 I havn't started on any actual sheets for a bit. I've been doing one shot sprites trying out what seems to work and what doesn't. Right now I might not do a sheet unless someone asks me to do one but I find that highly unlikly. All in good fun though. It's nice to have a creative medium again. Anyways, another small update. Found another random pic looking up sprites to see others work that might not be on this site exactly but other places. Spear guy. I took the base of the sprite from another sorce. Bad thing is, I only have the sprites. Got the base on Spritedatabase fire emblem section. Somewhere there... If I wasnt so lazy I'd look it up. I dont like how the legs turned out but hey, good enough for now. And look! It's you? Commander guy who is suppose to be on the feild giving commands. I just mashed alot of sprites together and got this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Kitty Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I'm guessing you've never played fe13, because you now have 2 sprites referenced from the game but seem to be completely unaware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Kamon Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The shield needs some perspective and the lance seems to be fused with the leg. Other than that, it's a nice sprite of the soldiers from FE13. I don't have anything to say in particular about the Tactician, it seems like a Summoner for various reason, but other than that it's quite cool too. Keep it up, you're doing well!

MrStarster Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 I agree with the spear and leg situation. Might go back one day and redo the legs from scratch. As for the tactician, I litterally stole the neck thing from the summoner sprite. It is also the shamans body and someones head. Again I kinda... mushed sprites together on that one. As for the not knowing what game it is from, I knew they were FE units of somesort but I didn't know which game since I've only played one FE game so far... sad face on that fact. Still, I thank you for your comments and hopfully I can get some more inspiration and decent work pumped out atlest once or twice a week. Maybe even everyday. Now that be something.

MrStarster Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 And thus I have the ability to make another post! I got those boots fixed up on the soldier guy and got him a new shield... and his old shield kinda got betterish... We have the dismounted Cavalier holding a sword and even Merlinus gets off his damn cart for once. The Valkyrie and the Pegasus Knight loses their mounts and one of my old character Bobsong gets chainmail and his fattyness. Normal merc sword and zweihander difference. Lastly, just as a little nod to this person who happened to check my profile and have gold armor.... Zephias, here is you as a dismounted Cavalier just for the quick look at my page.

Alfred Kamon Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Well, you keep improving. I really want to see what you're able to pull off! I have sent you a PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 For that row of Soldiers, the one with the Gold and Blue shield is by far the best of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelman Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 But I thought Zephias was a female knight? Not a female social knight? lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStarster Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 It's been some time but I had a rather large time where I couldn't post at all and then I just needed some more time away. I'll try getting back in a small groove but I can't make promises. Gonna practice some small sprite updates and customize alittle bit more than pure slices.

Solum Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Since I'm an absolute clown when I have to do battle animations (only animations è_é) I won't say anything technical. Beside, I see a super big potential in you! I love what you're doing so keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStarster Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 I thank anyone still fallowing this once dead thread. Makes me happy just to see one responce still. ^ ^ I would always love comments saying that I need to do something different or point out things needing to be changed. I know for a fact that some of the old sprites were over the color limit for the actual game and Im trying to make sure that isnt the case with my sprites. These next ones are 90% custom. The heads were pulled off of other characters. I cant seem to make them without making it look to out of place for my oppinion. Though I did try to make the guy with the hair slightly different on the hair style. Then we have Mini Zerker again. All I did was give him a possible portrait which is a splice... Idk if I'll really do a custom of those... they seem a bit to advance for my work on ms paint. Still, I really like Mini Z so I may make a full sheet one day.

Klokinator Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I read this thread everytime you post something new :D I like the blue armored guy, but his waist seems a bit small. Something about the body proportions don't match up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStarster Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Oh hi Klok! I see what you mean. Maybe 1 or 2 pixels wider should have been wiser to have done... Still, it's nice to hear from you again. So is one of the other 2 better for ya? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Gabriel Knight Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I think +1 is the best, but you widened his hips, not his waist. If you widen the waist by 1 as well, I think it should improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStarster Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Welp I'm a dumb dumb. Couldn't tell a waist apart from the hips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yeah, we don't want a supermodel going into battle, we want a man with a 15 pack XD And that one that you just posted looks way better :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStarster Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Alright. That's good to hear. Also, now all I can think of is the song "NOW YOU'RE A MAN!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NICKT™ Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Way too much outline. I found this little picture online ages ago, no idea where from but just wanted to say that it's not mine, but it's a great example of not using too much of your outline in your graphic when unnecessary.

deranger Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) I'm not claiming NICKT's wrong, but a lot of the fe battle sprites I've perused have a surrounding black outline on top of darker shades as you go outwards. A lot of interesting, original stuff here. Keep it up. Edited July 27, 2014 by deranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of interesting, original stuff here. Keep it up. I suppose I shouldn't have used the term outline, as I was more just referring to the use of the outline colour overall in the sprite, rather than exclusively on the outline. Things like where all the armour plates meet and the like I find should probably use the darkest blue shade instead of the outline, et cetera.

MrStarster Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 SIMON BELMONT!!! I was making a few clasical Castlevania sprites in 8 bit to pass some time. Then, BOOM. Simon belmont. In FE. Idea. Done. I have the animation in mind for the attack but I havn't worked on anything else because I wanted to try that... not so bold outine thing. So I tried it. Well?

Fateborn Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 A-are you going to making it an animation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Oh shiiiit that looks badass. Finish his anim and I'll add him as a cameo character when I get to work on roguelike emblem again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStarster Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 TIS I! Never fear, Simon Belmont is here! To destroy evil monsters and all you hold dear! Welp. I gave it an animation. Gotta say I couldn't think of a good crit thing to do so for now I just made it the flame whip. It's a weapon there's not really a FE animation for so I just made it look similar to how he whips in the castlevania games. Feet perfectly still and all. Also, future sorry's for any pixels that are off by a color or that puts it over the 16 bit thing. I was splicing some parts to a custom but I did my best to TRY and make it all good in da hood. Oh, and there's a sprite I'm working on for someone there too. Just kinda... put it there.... just cuz... Ok, I love you, bye bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
