Midnight Bliss and Shock Project (Shock Project revived!)

[Xenomic]

If you want, I can give you someone to try and do. Up to you. ^^

[Worksa8]

I'm almost done one now x3

[Worksa8]

I rushed one, just for something to do. it could have been waaay better then this If I had franken sprites some bits, instead of just drawing almost everything scratch XD

EDIT: Crap, I never finished JT's hand XD
EDIT2: Ryu " OMG! I HAVE BOOBS?!.......>.>;;.....*Squish, squish....*"

Another one not finished XD I guess I get bored too easy....and I hate feet X3

[Xenomic]

Interesting. Talbain is definently different for sure.

[Xenomic]

Yeah yeah. Lazy streak in me again. Been working on some faqs for Gamefaqs (Final Fantasy V and GG: AC faqs, to be precise), and just got the FFV one done. Will probably get some spriting done this week....MAYBE. ^^;;


Oh, and for those who are wondering what my MB Juggernaut is going to look like, it's this sprite (done by someone who's name I don't remember now):





So yeah, I gots Juggernaut, Kula, Sion, Arcueid, Satsuki, Hisui&Kohaku, and Hotaru to do now. Lots of Midnight Blisses all at once. x_x

[O Ilusionista]

hahahah. That Juggernaut MB is amazing

[Xenomic]

Alright guys, I'm thinking of seeing if anyone would like to touch up on this sprite when I get done with what I have. It just....doesn't seem right at all. .V.

[Xenomic]

Ok, so here's what I've gotten done so far of the grabbed sprite.

Something just doesn't feel right.....I just don't know what. .V.

[Xenomic]

Finally got it finished, but I don't like how it looks right now. Legs aren't fat enough, and the bewbs are....well......they just don't look right. And the feet are too small. Ugh.....if anyone would like to help touch up on this, I'd REALLY, really appreciate it right now, cuz I don't have a single clue on how to fix any of this. x_x

[TomBewley]

I made a very quick edit (and I mean very quick) just so you can see where to go next.



I've changed the legs and the breasts as well as the choice of colours for the skin

Things for you to change:
1.The bangles on her arm
2.The hair
3.The shoes
4.The stomach area

How to changes these:
1. The top ring needs to be a darker colour as well as a slightly different shape. Don't use a very dark outline all the way around, just at the bottom of the bangles
2. Look at Psylocke's hair and see how there are two colours in it, yet it looks quite decent. Its all in the shapes of the lines you do
3. The shading on the shoes needs work. There is a lack of definition in some areas of it. The light spot shouldn't be that shape, it should follow the contours of the shoes more
4. Again the shading is off here, as well as the little lines. At her angle they should be going straight down.

Always remember that in vs style sprites the light comes from above.

Hope this helps

Alright people, need some insight here. I'm currently redoing my Midnight Bliss Gallery on my Photobucket, but need to hear what everyone wants here. Right now, I'm uploading all of the original sprites in PNG format, since they were in JPEG format (this was before I knew about PNG and how good it was), and I'm wondering if I should redo the other folders in the gallery. Here's what I mean:



I'll just use Mai as an example here:



Original Sprites:

Current Gallery (sprites enlarged by 250%):

http://s187.photobucket.com/albums/x308/Xenomic/Midnight%20Bliss%20Gallery/Mai%20Shiranui/




Now the question is folks.....would you want me to keep the Current Gallery (the one where all the sprites are enlarged) and the Original Gallery (where the sprites are whatever size they start at), or do you want me to just keep the Original Gallery?

i thought jon talbain got boobs too...

[Xenomic]

Updated first post people, and take a look at my sig if you will (though it should all be shown in the first post now)

[Xenomic]

And here's the first one done for the Shock Project; Dizzy:



      



Note that future ones done won't probably have the 3rd sprite, but never know.




Hope this encourages more of these to be done like my Midnight Bliss Project has encouraged some other people to do patches. ^^

[Xenomic]

I was thinking about this after someone brought this up, and this is a question that I really have no answer to, and was wondering if any of you guys would know (note, Dizzy is one of my mains in GG, but even this confounds me).


A person asked about the shock sprite above (the 2nd frame) "Wouldn't she have bones in her tail and wings?", and  I starting thinking about it.....WOULD she really have bones in either of those, considering that they can change forms?? That's one of the very few questions that I really have no answer for either. What do you guys think???

Yes she would have bones in her wings & tail . Bats & other creatures do right ? So iy would onlu make sense that Dizzy would . SHe would be more realistic if you added bones to those parts . It would look pretty cool , too . 



 

[Xenomic]

True, though here's another response I got to that question from Nio, which actually does make sense to me:


"well, I'm a GGXX player, and the wings of dizzy gets deforme everytime, like if they were made like ghosts, spectrums or something like that...that's why I don't see viable to put bones there.

the tail, well, some animals got tail without bones, so considering that doesn't seems and fit exactly on Dizzy's body, It will be good without bones..."



Which would actually make sense, even if they were a part of her body (which I know they are), considering Dizzy's nature and all that.

[DARKTALBAIN]

Ok that guy does bring up a good point . Those wings are kind of " spiritual "

But just for effect level the bones would look cool when she is shocked . So I would put them in . It would also make her skeleton look different than any characters . Which is always a good thing when making custom sprites .

Hey you are creating the sprites , go with what you think would look best .

[Xenomic]

True. Though the Dizzy sprites I requested made this time. I'll be making my own now thanks to that (originally, for those who didn't know, the Shock Project WAS going to be my first project, even before the Midnight Bliss Project. I liked this sprite so much, that it actually inspired me to start the Shock Project. ^^).



And there's always a way around these things. Know what that is? Make another one for another Dizzy.     Though it would look cool on this particular sprite I admit. And yes, it would make her unique to everyone else......hmmmm.....that's a tough choice. Do it on this sprite, or save it for another Dizzy. x_x

[warner]

well, it's a kind of weird, since i made those Dizzy' sprites and Xenomic didn't ask to me, why i didn't draw bones in her wing...
and the answer is that, spiritual wings.
about her "tail", well i though that was her hair or part of her clothes. 
anyway, you can add the missing bones if you want it.

good luck in your project, i hope you should get more sprites for that. 

[Xenomic]

Well, as you said about her wings, would her tail be considered "spiritual" as well??


And yes, Warner did make those sprites btw. Just saying to back his words up here. If anyone has a problem with that, please take it up with me and not with him. ^^

[DARKTALBAIN]

I don't have a problem with anything . I mean they look great . I would just put the bones in the wings & tail to make her skeleton unique . That's all I'm saying .

[Xenomic]

Nono. That wasn't meant directly at anyone in particular. Just saying that. Sorry if I sounded like I meant it towards you or anything. ^^


And yeah, I think I may do that with another Shock sprite that I'll try myself unless someone else beats me to it. It'll be interesting to see, and will make her more unique (or at least the tail bones in the other one, since both Nio's and Warner's answers about the wings are....well.....hard to disagree with what they said. Dunno, I'll have to wait and see! ^^

[Xenomic]

And now for some videos, all from Pyomega (note, he did the majority of the draining animations here, save for some for which I'll let you guys look at the description for).


This one he did the draining animations for:

And this next one is done by me, and while my patch works for Arcueid by Kuro, he managed to make it work with Shiroto's Akaitsuki, which the patch for is somewhere....I'll have to find it.

Sakura:








He'll have Kohaku done next, and then I don't know who he's going to do next for my project. Guy works pretty fast too. ^^
