So my best friend and i were sit back today and talking (yet again) about chars that should be featured in Mugen.. and today's winner was...

(click to show/hide)

Rorschach - "The Watchman" (Detective Comics)

The stance is an advance concept of these two anims combined. I am still adding more detail in the face as well as tweaks to the body, so for the moment I haven't combined the two. I was going to place this in graphic arts but I might build off of it periodtically as possible WIP. (since my friend is now twisting my arm to do it before 03.06.09, as thats when "The Watchmen" hits threathers; unlikely but we'll see) If the images serve justice, shoot constructive feedback as I'm doing to being fusing and altering the anims into one piece.

C&C always welcome.

nice, but a Q edit is very PREDICTABO.

I take it you haven't seen seanalty's (the guy who did Solid Snake and Shades of Manhattan) WIP. It's an edit of Seth from KOF.

Dont worry Apoc, you will find someone else to do if you don't want to do him anymore.

Spidermew · « **Reply #4 on:** December 29, 2008, 12:08:22 AM »

well if you keep going with your version, ide say slow down the face transission, it should be smoother then it is fast.

b.easy · « **Reply #5 on:** December 29, 2008, 10:39:02 AM »

The face looks pretty good to me, he has way more room to work with using Q as a base.

The thing about using Q, however, is that Rorshach is known to have a slight build in the comics, he just looks big with his shoes and trenchcoat. Q is a little too large for the whole character, I think.

P.S.

I's rather play with the Maxx anyways.

i second that give us Maxx

Maxx third-ed!

I like the concept you've got going for Rorshach (Q is definitely the obvious base choice), but don't you already have like 3 WIPs (not counting Punisher)? We can't have you burning yourself out, since it's not like you can just will these characters into being (I'm pretty sure zvitor is the only one who can do that

).

Seriously though, if you really want to do this character, then go for it. Just because seanalty is making him, doesn't mean you can't do your version. There's about 8,000 Ryus out there, and 4 times that many Akumas. We can handle two Rorshachs.

But if your whole goal is to do a character that has not/is not being done, then how about Dr. Manhattan? Might not be the biggest spriting challenge, but he does have potential for some very interesting gameplay.

Hehe.. Well it was just an idea, i glad someone is making him. I don't think i'll ever stop creating, it's too big of a hobby of mine. My progression speeds may vary at most, but I know how to balance work in progress from leasure spriting.

Here's about try at a base concept for Vegeta from Spooky's Dragonball Z base thread:

:::Posted in Spooky's DBZ thread:::
Yeh, the hair can be a nightmare. I took an attempted at MvC style Vegeta just for -ish and giggles...

About 70% - I wanna fix the arm movements better when add some gernal detail to the boots. Maybe some hair movement too.

and here's my newest verision edit, ( i like a lot better!):

Just before detailing...

Kicked the cyclops base for someone else. Still making tweaks.

Really o_0?

is it the muscle detail? Just looking for focal point to work on with this new one. Something about using cyclops was a base wasn't as satifying to me...but then again, maybe if i'd slimmed him up a little, it could have sold me more. IDK.

Kim , the pants were a dead give away .

I say go that route . The cyclops one looks too tall & skinny . Which is not Vegeta at all .

I've always enjoyed the MVC sprite style over the KOF look. The size of your newer sprites takes a lot out of his face and a few other spots due to the smaller size (you just don't have enough room!) and personally I think parts like the face are important for anime characters.
