Anime Battle Royal - Project Lab.

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

To be honest with you, Lando. I wasn't talking about his face for shading, but it's his body of his T-shirt. That was my concern.

I guess AlanJoeStar gave you the idea of Kenichi's char base. I'm never a fan of that Kenichi show. What's the name of his Anime?

i knew what you were talking about Enso. what i did was im just edited his Jacket into a t shirt like he wears in the anime. it can use a few more touchups tho. not much.  yeah alanjoestar showed off his version on kenichi he did awhile back. We didnt have a base idea for him till he showed me him and so i dled the character shiki sprite pack and saw he would make an exellent fit, even if he was to keep the jacket. But like silva pointed out , dont want him to be a clone of shiki so changing his jacket to a shirt based from the anime and def tweaking his hair more and stance to give him a close enough rendition to Kenichi. All of shiki moves can be edited to fit Kenichi for some basics and hypers. others will need to frankensprite and editings.

[O Ilusionista]

For what I can see, your skills improved a lot. Congrats.

For what I can see, your skills improved a lot. Congrats.

thanx friend , i really appreciate that. trying harder and harder to improve a bit more.

actually i am also rolling through the website spritepacks to make a quick edit base for Apachai.

[DEMONKAI]

thanx my friend , still doing editing on him so i can get a lil coding going sometime next month. 

ok here i have Kenichi set up to work from in this Base i made a lil based on his regular stance. still might cvhange things up in it. i have some reworking in a few areas as well. especially i wanna get those arms just right and flesh out more some details. tryin to keep him from being too much shiki like with the suit . outfit based on him fighting against Odin.

This is Hot Lando. well done man. The others are flavaful also. You have truly come a long way and i cant say much more about the skills. You have gotten the spriting skills down packed way more. Keep it rockin. ABR is in great hands on the rise!

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

thanx bro/teach Kai...da masta.   always trying to figure ways to not just make the sprites replicate close as can be to the anime characters but as well make them look cool.like i been told by Nestor, Manic , Li Kung ......Practice , practice and more practice. . wanna try to keep getting better and not worse.

well here is the test i did using Joe for Apachai base, well comparing to the artwork i have , joe size up top is kinda too small and Sagat top is quite more closer to his size but his arms are a bit much bigger than Apachai's. def some mean reworking to do to get him to look right but totally doable. plus i just cant use sagat head, joes is better plus his skin tone fits. so....gonna try to do what i can  but at least i have a base look to see where i need to make transitional improvements on sagat from joe's.

[Enso]

I don't know about that character but I can try to help making suggestion(s) on that guy, Apachai. Well, as you said here:

... others will need to frankensprite and editings.

So it's possible that you can frankensprite with Joe's head with a CVS Sagat. If you don't have CVS Sagat, I can send you one.

Oh! There's one edited character that has a Sagat base. The character is Anji. The person who did the editing on that guy is Tiger-Genocide. Maybe you can use it I guess. He's a Sagat base edit. But I think you might not like it though. Don't ask.

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

hey i actually had that character too enso. . but nahh i wouldnt do that, i got cvs 2 sagat ready and waiting. plus trying to see what sprites i would wanna use for his hyper striker move and base a lil off the anime show. Sagat is a cool base to use with a nicely done cvs joe edited head. parts of hair need to be lighter as well basing off first joe draft and actual pic.

[Enso]

Yeah. That's what I thought before I posted it but I forgot to mention editing Joe's hair. Plus you can try to use Guile's shirt as a guide (either SFA or CVS-converted) for Sagat's chest. Otherwise you could edit his chest into his shirt like what TG did. If that doesn't work, you can frankensprite by replacing Sagat's arms with one character's arm which matches Apachai's. I don't know which character can resemble it but there is a way you can do frankenspriting. You know that frankenspriting is not all about swapping different persons heads with another persons body. This is just basic. You can just "turn it all the way around." Sorry for acting condescending. I'm just helping you with ideas, bro. Sometimes I get no head and start talking nonsense (a little).

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

its aight bro. . i get what you saying indeed. there are many ways to go about making him . Frankenspriting i am familiar with by now. Spidermews guide from awhile back gave me to try and practice doing. I always choose first one base to actually get the idea to make the character , it gives me to practice with in editing/shading  to test how much further i can go and get better. Apachai isnt a full character so he would just need to have those sprites for his hyper striker moves only and maybe a couple intro or and win poses.  I might not even be the one to make him, so i am not going extremely deep just yet. i have more to do that comes first. getting a Kenichi was more a priority start to get a look for him that i think would be suitable. i like this look best

the other thing is i dont wanna have to use too many parts if i am gonna make him but def those guile (cvs) will be most handy if needed. I do like Sagat build better cause , he a huge dude compared to kenichi but still needs tweaking . So having guile, joe and even adon around for parts can be very useful. i was watching a few vids on the show like i was suggested , so i got a few ideas that could work when its his turn.

[Antman537]

just popping in to say sorry for the semester-long awol; I'm hoping to get some more sprites done over winter break

anything I missed?

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

whats good Antman, nahh ya aint missed anything bro. the project still rolls onward at the slow pace but surely.

well i went back and did some more editing on Witchblade and try to get her hair and eyes a bit better as well i put a whole new head on her cause the previous was really distored and messy. hopefully this one is a bit cleaner.



 i still want tom do more detail on her eyes but if i cant get them to look exactly the way i want then imma have to improvise. 

will be doing more terry editing and have some coding going on in his basics a special and hyper before  and after christmas. hope to post a lil vid on something with him soon  and stage with a display if possible of the screenpack depending how much has been programmed.

[Antman537]

so, updates on the Vash efforts: I went through and cleaned out all of the crosses in the old frames, and I did a couple new frames in his kick animation. 8 frames of kicking to go!

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

update:

well i told a  few people ( maybe even posted about in a thread somewhere) that i was gonna try something crazy. My pc got broken a month ago and i havent been up to par with spriting since and i been having work and now some medical issues that i need to address with maybe some surgury done. well the crazy thing i was gonna try was ...sprite on my small androind cellphone.  .  yeah i thought that would be a retarded idea but then i found a paint program ap for my cellphone. so i bought a lil stick thingy and ported over a sprite i had started on pc but decided to redo of stuff over.  well...ummm errr.. this is the result of a few days jabbin at making this character for ABR in sprite look. Gonna need a pc tho to do some major workovers in of areas i wanna fix up. Please critique away. its a cellphone sprite edit tho. .

Ryofu Housen first base stance test sprite done on Android cellphone Paint App.

hope its ok for now for a sample test sprite to roll with.

[Silva-silva]

Looks good considering you did it on your cellphone.

[C.R.O.M. - Shadaloo Lives!]

 

...

I want phone paint...

[HyperVoiceActing]

There's a Paint app? Wow.

Also that Ryofu sprite is nice, although I forgot what show she was from.

[Enso]

Ikkitousen, I think.

Lando, that sprite is not bad. Looks like it's your first time to sprite on a cellphone. This is my first time to hear about a paint app in a cellphone. Couldn't believe it myself. Anyway, about the sprite, I would be honest in what I think about that, but I might critique. Her face looks like a man, but not with the hair falling out. But I can see you used Maki's face for that. Dunno if you could change the face to avoid from looking like Maki, and you would make her look original. I know you need some fixes like the skirt, the shoes, etc. Looks far from perfect though, but it's better than nothing. Good job.

[DEMONKAI]

Looks good considering you did it on your cellphone.

yeh that sh*t crazy right there

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

i know crazy aint it?

well how i got the app is a biut weird cause i wasnt even lookin for it. i was lookin for something else and stumbled across it in the apps section in my phone. i thought this was a hoax or some corny thing. so i activated it to function and up came on my cell sideways was the basic paint app mi use on the PC! i was like WTF! so i dragged my finger arcoss it and ...yep a black line was made. i can zoom in to enlarge the picture too and you can see pixels but its super friggan hard man to make anything on it if you dont have a stylus and zoom in. so i wanted to see if i could import my sprites to it and i dl a png format base i had of her on deck to make and it worked! so i just started makin all the usual adjustments andf shadings and thats what i got. its not bad but its super hard to do cause i spent so much time staring at the screen squinting i thought i was gonna turn into popeye. .  i can even play animated ABR sprite gifs on it. . i gopt the Adam Blade one with the shining forehead gem on it. and wow , sprites look dang friggan awesome on it too! way better on the cellphone than the dang cpu!

there are several android paint apps around and some just unique to the kind of phone you have only , others are downloadable.  I think like Zebra Android paint app.

You know what? You guys should ask for your own thread here. It never hurts ot ask.

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

You know what? You guys should ask for your own thread here. It never hurts ot ask.

you mean like full on WIP thread? yeah we have that tho . thats for more full on work to show , this one is just to show test sprites, spriting discussion on the project ( even tho you have noticed we do go off quite bit and start clowning around, we just us thats all. ) i deas and other early build stuff. yeah the other is for more finalized like stuff .  or do you mean a total IMT project thread of our own? whoa that would be ...heavy.

It was a time when that was frowned on. (The offtopness) Yeah a lot of fun now days.......


Lando you Still working on that blade sprite in your sig area? I can't get enough of needless.

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

Lando you Still working on that blade sprite in your sig area? I can't get enough of needless.

yeah i remember those days very well. . but ya know nowadays its not so bad to go off topic for some cool discussion and laughs. but still try to keep within the end goal .

Actually i havent gotten to do much on him but me and shadaloo are tasg teamin doing him. we have to come up with a good stance , tryin to base it off a stance he uses in the anime which is crazy cause he stands all kinds of crazy ways. . Needless is the definitive word of AWESOME! if you have any ideas my friend please , definetly share with us fellow Needless Fans. your a great animator and so i know you got plenty ideas. I have his movelist written out already. just need basic fighting stance anbd can go from there when i get back to helping sprite him up for a cool demo preview with some other characters. I will be back spriting soon as can be. If you got something ingenius in mind...do tell bro ! i wish i still had photoshop and gimp then i could have made a proper sig with it all together with what Overlordnick done which is cool as hellz!.

Plus...we need a ABR versus screen so Hloader can program it all in. Gonna have to ask around so he wont have to just wing it himself. wanna offer him all the stuff we can give as possible to finish it up to show off. i think its the last thing he needs.


edit. well i went and tried to fix up ryofu a biot using this windows 7 editor. i am breaking her down in 2 parts. doing top half first and then rebooting the waist down , i need to get a skirt sorta close to how hers is and make it look right. scratch sprite the sucker or i will frankensprite it and still use same legs from base i used.  so here is the top half. sorry if it looks a lil choppy. i have some stuff to still smooth out . rolling through some adam blade vids to get a proper like stance but madgear bro thinks his hand in pocket might suit better cause he does that .

Ryofu torso editing so far with windows 7 paint. uuhg.


i miss my Vista Paint!  :'( :'(


oh and Rage or shadaloo, do you guys know where to find a pic of arclight in his Manga outfit style? i thought i read on the site yall said his outfit looks different then the anime? i must see this.

[C.R.O.M. - Shadaloo Lives!]

I can't get enough of needless.

It seems noone is safe from it's hook.

[Tha Lando ( Le CROM )]

It seems noone is safe from it's hook.

that is truly scary isnt it? everyone i done told about it and watched the entire series now reads the manga...but me.   
Needless is awesome! , they really should continue the anime series. hell make a anime full movie!
