Author Topic: My first week of spriting results. (Read 1397 times)

It is my first week at trying to sprite and here is what I came up with,

Doc Samson a Hulk character, This was my first official sprite, Caps legs, Zangief body and Alex head. I thought he might be a good addition to MVC. I have and will be doing only this one sprite.

He-Man, I know one is being made but it isn't really Capcom style, I used Leo's body and sword, Kens head, and Caps shield, edited the rest myself.

She-Ra, I have the one that is out but it does look like a joke. So I did this one, Rouge edit with Sakura's skirt. I wanted this to match the He-man Character the best I could so I had to match the pixle details with a lighter tone scale, I am the most proud of this one so far. I also Shrank the edit of He-mans sword and put the jewel in it.

Veiwtiful Joe, With all the Capcom style wienning that is slung around this forum I am surprised no one has done this character. After She-Ra this character was easy, and maybe the only one I would think of making a character for. Mega Man edit with Jin's scarf.

Silvia, I think it is the girl helper from VJ2 I haven't played either game and only seen like one episode of the show when it was on so I don't know much about these characters but this one was a little harder to do. I took Roll's body, Megeman's head, Jin's scarf again, and Dr. Dooms guns and edited them all into this character. Things do come better in pairs.

Sorry I messed up the sprites with the avatars for these characters, I hope I know one minds if I post just the sprites here.

Doc Samson's head looks a bit weird, but other then that, everything looks good

Yeah, My brother said his head looks to small but, I was trying to emphasize his bulk. thanks.

Im not going to even really start on him till ive released another character, or 2... But I will start working on Skeletor eventualy, and it maybe sorta soon depending on how fast i get with my other stuff im working on...

Hey guys thanks for all the kudos, I was thinking of doing some more masters sprites, next on my list was Beastman but I can't find a birdie base that will work with photoshop,(the Alpha stuff here doesn't seem to work I get the files as index.) I was thinking of Hordak and Trapjaw (using cables mangled arm as the base for Trapjaws mechanical one.) As for a character work in progress like I said up with the sprite posts Joe is the only one I would think of now, his sprite took the least amount of effort and I think would probably be a good starter for me, As much as l like He-Man. Sorry, I will probably work on some more sprites for him though so maybe he will slowly be made into a character if I like my progress.

nice joe sprite, but the coloring is kinda wack. Do you mind if edit it a little.

Swiziga · « **Reply #12 on:** October 03, 2008, 07:09:37 PM »

nice sprites edits. that is the 1st viewtiful joe sprite i've ever seen on any mugen forum. if ur thinking about making him a wip there are some things that need to be fixed. like iceman said, the coloring could be better
(maybe u should use the coloring/shading style from the show and game

)
the v on his head is longer, and his scarf attached to his outfit is supposed to be a long pink single scarf.

JeagerEX · « **Reply #13 on:** October 04, 2008, 08:12:33 AM »

Awesome Viewtiful Joe!!!

Sorry the coloring doesn't meet your standards. Too bad you didn't think of it and do it yourself, since you said it is the first you've seen. I don't mind if you recolor it but I did mention that I just edited Megaman, so I used the exact shading scheme he has so you maybe should be complaning to Capcom. I also mentioned that these are the first sprites that I have done in this order and, I don't know anything about the character. I have been working my @$$ off yesterday and today getting this character started (and didn't expect to check back here and get that critisizm),

sorry if I am being too harsh. If you would like to try a new color scheme go ahead and maybe I will try to work it in. Thanks for showing interest though.

woah dude, We didnt say it was bad. It just needs a little editing. Color changing and a little adjustments. About time someone created him. If i new how to do it I would have already done it. GOOD LUCK MAN!!!

Indeed, very rarely will anyone say that anyone sucks at doing (insert task here). If it ever does happen though, it's usually warranted because the only time I've seen that happen here is when the person on the receiving end has been a general putz, and even then, we don't tolerate that kind of behavior for long.

Back to the matter at hand...

Yeah they are right about the colors and other things, that's just constructive critisizm. That's something you should get used to because everyone gets it no matter what they're working on whether it's a character, stage, screenpack, or sprite edits. And you've even been provided with a pic to base your futher modifications on so that you can make the sprite better than it already is.

See man, we're on your side here. We encourage creativity. Try not to take it the wrong way.

...uh i wasn't trying to get at ur sprites or anything. what i posted was just to point out things that could make it look better

. i wasn't saying anything like "change that, it looks horrible". i actually think that u spriting chars like this is cool, bcause like i said b4 i've never seen anyone make a viewtiful joe sprite or character. if u don't want some helpful criticism i guess i just won't post about that anymore

Grayskull · « **Reply #18 on:** October 09, 2008, 09:28:11 AM »

Fantastic , your he-man look like 200x series ,
great sprite man ,
I hope you'll made Heman and Shera
because the one which is downloadable is just a bad joke !
(I hope the creator will make a good work on hordak like it was the case with Lion O)

Trust me bud , I wish I would have had someone do things like this for me with my first character . If I did , my main Hobgoblin palette wouldn't have purple in it . Yeah , my colors were messed up & no one told me/helped me . So I continued to make all the sprites the same way . The palette is pretty much a mess because of it . Take it from someone that went through it . Believe me this is a good thing that these guys pointed something out early . It can only make the character better in the long run to have a demonstration . If you don't like the colors they use , just stick with your color scheme . But at least check it out .
