MvC Phoenix WIP first VID added

[I_Burner]

Finally, a serious attempt at Phoenix. Good luck with her! Oh, and a Dark Phoenix mode would certainly be cool.

BTW, this whole hair drama is rather amusing. If nothing else, I'll be checking in on this thread just to see how that develops

The hair will probably remain the same, I don't know many spriters that are willing to fix their own work, after they have made of the sprites. Everyone is too lazy, or doesn't have the time =P

hell true. but also is the wish to sprite new ideas instead of fix past work that can be patched/fixed/touched further

Pretty much....and I remember you now, way back before I left infinity for that rather long period of time....You were screwing around with Orochi sprite edits back then.....

I must be the rare exception to this . I had of Medieval Spawn sprites done . I am now redoing all of them because I redesigned the spikes , skulls & some other stuff . Believe me it was a pain lining those spikes up when he moved the first time . Since the spikes are designed different I have to line them all up again . The way I look at it is this ..... We take all this time spriting a character , why not go the extra mile ? What's another 24 hours or even week of work if it will drastically improves the way the character looks . that's why I'm redoing stuff on all of Medieval Spawn's sprites . Maybe I'm the only one that thinks this way

I like the basic build, but before you get to much further, you should give some real thought to making her arms a little more mobile. I think I see what you were going for with that posture, but she looks really stiff as it stands.

I would suggest a little horizontal movement on them during her regular stance, and more vertical movement during her jumps.

Of course, you could have that as the next item on your agenda already, in which case, I'm just pissin' in the wind.

[umarboy1991]

u have done her great, how many prosents do u think she is right now?? and is she going to be very difficult to beat?? anyways good job=D really very good that someone is making another Phoenix=D

[Weapon x program]

good start

[b.easy]

after seeing the video, i think the stance needs some work.
The face moves up and down during the stance and it looks strange, and the breasts move in the same unnatural manner.
I reccomend what god_king and TALBAIN are saying as far as adding more movement to the stance.
In any case, she looks to be coming along nicely besides the usual little nitpicks. What types of special moves are on your mind?

[esn23]

Great Phoenix..  For a super move you should have her use the encram crystal and have a hugen phoenix surround her with a semi transparent solar system for overlapping the animation..  When she ses the crystal boom the solar system is destroyed ...  As far as the hair... I love the big hair and the concept of it...  You just need to make it move more in some pictures half her hair moves as one and it makes it look like the back of her head is growning and shrinking..  I think that her hair is great.. but the strands should not move all together.. here is my example of what im sayin...



Your Phoenix could be a great and awsome character that everyone will want years from now..  Or it can be hella crappy like the first jubilee that came out...  Just take the time and it could be a super wip..

Hey dark how many different stances and changes have I given my wip ..  (trust me your not the only one XD)

[DARKTALBAIN]

You have a point dwe/esn

Anyway back to the topic . I think when phoenix crouches her arms should come down also . You just have her upper body in the same position as the stance . Believe me a few extra frames of animation go a long way .
