I *think* we have concept art for Tilo that should be followed.  Let me check.

EDIT: Yea, we do.  Yours is actually pretty close!

I actually based it on the concept art!

I think the only problems are the face and clothing.

Alright, some more constructive crit this time now that I'm out of a game:

-The dress doesn't look long enough.
-The dress doesn't look torn at all.
-I can excuse the fact that I see no plaid pattern on the dress but still, might be something to look into?
-She has VERY distinct eyes and you pretty much drew slits. Whatttt.
-Her hair's supposed to be a complete mess.

Just no. Sorry lol.

Good idea to use the swordsman guys as a base! The hair being changed in a good idea to make Tilo more distinctive from them, though. I'm mostly on your side about the dress, I don't know how well plaid will work at this resolution, but it's worth a shot to try! :D

Yeah, honestly the plaid I can definitely excuse, but the other defining details need to be in there.

Tried to fix Tilo a bit. I kinda went overboard with the messy hair, but I think it works in her favor. Her dress still needs some work though.

Thank you.

Honestly, thank you. You did the concept justice. <3

Okay, glad you guys liked it. ^^
It's been so long since I've done any pixelart. : D

It looks great man! :~)
I've been wanting to make pixelart again (especially some good ol' MC style stuff).

just did a few edits if you don't mind ;-)

if you mind, then maybe some idea bringing stuff...

edit: i looked at the wiki though

Ultimately the decision for accepting Tilo will be up to Ash since it's her creation.  But great job, the hair looks fantastic!

I actually really like the face and the hair is also cool. Did some edits and combined parts from both. The left one is yue's original and the one on the right is the edit.

looks good, even though i don't like the fat arms since the artworks showed them thin and resting on the hips like some kind of know-it-all... the hair has definitly more volume with you, but the only thing i didn#t like about mine was the shading, since i'm not used to spriting since a long time and came from the nightshift as i made that ;P

won't be editing another one and your new skirt is actually nicer than before

Since it's tough in general to make thin sprites, I really don't mind if you keep the chubby arms. They're kinda cute, actually.
Title: More NPC´s
Post by: SpritingBrad on May 04, 2016, 05:04:53 pm
I added the previous arms to Tilo, I liked them better. I also animated the ghost tail she has.
I attempted to make Abigail, head of the Gerudo Fortress and Bernice the crazy cat lady. The rest are or already done, or from minish cap. We could reuse some of MC´s NPC´s for some characters, just tweak them a little.

These are looking great! This might be nitpicking but I think the skin tone of Aladdin should be darker, unless we purposely created an easter egg of Aladdin to be white.

Then shouldn't we also make his clothes the proper colors, as well?

No. This is purely a skin tone issue to avoid people complaining about white washing a clearly arabic character.

Yyyeep.  We all know it'll happen too!

To be honest, it'd be sweet if we used varied skin tones for all the characters, rather than having the generic medieval England setting always used in fantasy settings.

Also, the bio for Aladdin says he's 65 years old ( http://wiki.zfgc.com/KOT:Aladdin ), so it might also be reasonable to give him grey hair and/or a beard.

Also unless there's "character speaking" labels above the text boxes, probably most people playing the game won't even know the NPC's name, right?

I blame Japan's love of feudal and medieval Europe for this. Zelda, Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy...

For Japan, the West is as Exotic as for us is the East...
But if one, wants to have something new you have to do it yourself ;)
