Title: My First Sprite *UPDATE*
Post by: rhalifax on August 23, 2006, 03:44:03 am
Ok so I've been working at this for about an hour, it was a sprite I found in my old computer and I thought i could maybe attempt to resprite him. so comments please! I need to know what to fix!

WIP it isnt finished yet.

UPDATE: I decided to make him more modern so I can use him for my current project. He still has mostly pillow shading, but I worked on his shoes and thined him out abit, I know the stances look weird as well but I'm planning to touch those up alot after I get the final look down.

Awesome for your first sprite, but it's little pillowish and you should add more contrast with the shirt and pants. But, if you continue spriting, you'll be a great spriter for sure ;)

Very nice for a first sprite - you got a good pose and some nice shading.

The hand outline looks a little out of place, try a darker brown maybe. More contrast too.

Meh, it's ok, lots of crits though.

1. Pillow Shaded - The darker color is on the outside, and gets light towards the middle, giving it a pillowish effect.

2. Jagged Lineart - Anti-Aliasing is your friend bud :)

3. Bit to many colors - Makes it look a bit jumbled.

Those are the most apparent ones, but, nonetheless, good job for your first!
By the way, in no way was I trying to put you down, just giving you crits.

I changed him a bit, I made him look more modern (he looked like Auron from FFX in a sort of way.)

I haven't reshaded him but I did reoutline his hands in a dark color.

Don't understand what you mean in two. and for 3 I made his jacket a dark green and its not so poofy, more like a regular jacket.

Anti-Aliasing is a technique that makes your lineart look not so rugged, go to spriteart.com for a tutorial on it.

Once hes in a game you wont notice at all, its an amazing sprite.
