Great work with the stance Zvitor, I like the new colors

dwe23, I hope you will make a green palette for her, if you need more ideas for palettes just look at the pictures I posted before (green, green/purple, purple, purple/gold..).

[DARKTALBAIN]

Changing her face/shading does nothing esn, you need to put the effort into changing her stance entirely since they are using it for Scarlett Witch. Also her basics will probabky need to be redone, I am assuming

[esn23]

Her stance is changed and her hair i used that stance to show warecus her new uniform she is flying in her stance now xd and i resprited her hair

[yosifun]

Nice to hear, can you show a sprite or even an animated stance for some cc?

[esn23]

Im using a cheap cell phone with lousy internet cant till wed it was a huge mistake to post that stance wasnt done with the costume shading or hair or her new stance sory

[warecus]

like the new uniform.  kinda hate that they both can't have the same hair. I think it's really noticeable cuz the hair is from scratch with a little shading help from z999.  I would use storm or rougue's hair and make it longer and curl it at the ends (I sound like a hair dresseer)  anyway that is what I used for my new version of polaris that appears in one of the intros of scarlet witch

here is something I did, I don't know if I'm suppose to show this but anywhoo zvitor forgive me

AMAZING hair on that pretty head and I LOVE what you have done with her boobs

This Polaris looks just great! I can only hope dwe23 will use this (with permission of course) for his character. This way, when in the same roster, the Polaris intro and the Polaris character won't look so different.

I just hope dwe23 will consider using this (at least the head), I assume he is very attached to his current sprites..

BTW, how is the progress for Scarlet Witch?

Post Merge: January 25, 2010, 09:39:01 PMhere we go new stance new shadding and new hair please every one love this it took me a while to modify.. There is more shading in the legs my image converter just sucks..    And I fixed her right knee's shading too.. Anywho have to go my time is up at kinkos  

[Jelux Da Casual]

SWISH!

[Kojunho]

Stance is good but shading needs work and the colors for some odd reason flash during the anim. Not sure if that was on purpose. I'm diggin the new hair though.

[esn23]

The crappy shading and flash is a result of the image programs i use to convert and animate sorry about that

[DARKTALBAIN]

There was a Jim Lee X-men card set that came out in the 90's. That set had a Polaris card drawn by Jim lee. This WIP used to look like that!!!! Now, not so much

[Esʞy]

Her leg looks like it is pulsating 

[esn23]

The uniform i chose is one of the more common 90s uniforms sorry cant please everyone you told me once dark if i tried to do that i would never get done with a wip

[yosifun]

I can see the improvement in the stance, the hair looks better than before too.

Did you consider using warecus's sprites as a base for yours?

I would recommend at least incorporating his head+hair and boobs to your stance, it would be such a shame to pass on such high-quality work which will make your character better and your work easier.

Just take a shot at my suggestion, maybe after you'll see some of the feedback you'll think like me.

[esn23]

Lol that is who im using as a base her hair i cant use as i said before her face was changed because scartlet witch has that base and i did use his boobs

[yosifun]

Are you talking about these Polaris sprites warecus has made?



Because I can't see any similarities between these and your recent sprites

[DARKTALBAIN]

I was just trying to say something in a nice way, because you mentioned that it took some time to edit the hair. Change the basics & she already has different attacks, so she will look nothing like Scarlett Witch after that. But.....

Word of advice, just use this head



If something is not broken why try to fix it. You just end up breaking it more.

If you use warecus's existing head/hair, all you have to do is change the outline of the hair to make it look different. This hair already has " texture. "  It looks like hair.

Now this sprite of yours....



Her Face reminds me of that girl character on the muppet show that didn't have a nose, but had big eyes. Hard to explain, they weren't real popular characters. Her hair could basically be a towel, a big bandana, some kind of scarf type thing, a crazy hat, or maybe hair. It is not shaded right, there is no " hair " texture to it, & the way it sits on the top of her head looks more like a hat.

This may sound mean to you, but I am just trying to help you out because it just doesn't look right.

I said that about pleasing people to you long time ago when one person didn't like something you were doing & you were going to change it. So yes, do not try to please everyone. But it seems to me that the majority of people will possibly think this head/hair just doesn't look right.

Do what I did in my Wolvenom thread so many times....

Turn it into a poll. This way people can vote anonymously. If the majority like this design, stick with it. If not then go back to the old style. People will vote honestly, where as they may be afraid to type something looks bad.

Well people at cvg love her she is going to be in their crisis project i could say a ton of things  in the end im the one taking all my spare time to redo her in the end it should be me warecus and alexziq who should like her or not a lot of people have made great cc on here but that last comment was an attack everyone has their own spriting styles and there has been plenty of releases that i have not been found of but i just grin and bare it remember we do this for fun so please stop the insults

I guess it is true, some people just can't take constructive criticism.

An insult would be .....

Your sprites suck, I can't believe anyone would try to release a character this bad ( That's an EXAMPLE of an insult ) 

That's an attack, & I didn't say anything of the sort.

I commented very similar as yours in Sic's thread this morning about his Joker move & I don't think he took it as an insult.

I just tried to give you a little C C to help you along the way. But since you are taking my comments as " insulting, " I will not comment in your thread. 

Good Luck on all this

I think DARKTALBAIN's intention was good, maybe he went a bit off-topic with the Muppet example, but all he was trying to say that it's his opinion that the old Polaris head+hair is better than your latest version.

People will always make comments, but IMO if a majority of people are saying similar things, you should take it into consideration. Of course the WIP is yours, but a little help from other experienced members like DARKTALBAIN, warecus and Dead-X won't hurt

As I said before, the best base for you IMO is the Scarlet Witch's Polaris intro warecus posted, if you can get permission to use it I say go for it! even if it's just for the head+hair and boobs because you stance have potential too.

Oh.. just so there's no confusion, I'm not talking about the old Polaris sprites but about these sprites:

I fixed the face a bit dark  is a valued friend that is why the muppet comment hurt any who its dropped
