Verz36 pixel art!!!!

[verz36]

thanos, im surprised that nobody have thought about revamping thanos sprites. they lack shading big time. this is in my to do list for future wips. but I have a lot on my plate as of now. a thanos with good shading and all fx with hi res would be something for sure.

great work on Thanos and Rulk!

[HyperVoiceActing]

Neat job with Thanos, Verz. He really pops out more now. I'd certainly be interested in a revamped Thanos.

And Rulk looks good too.

[verz36]

the good old dock.... here I show you his turning animation. still need minore details and the top tentacles.. hope you guys like it.

[warecus]

dude that is perfection...always the best greens

[dev.]

Love it! Love it! Love it! This is the character we need the most.

[HyperVoiceActing]

Otto is shaping up to be a high quality MUGEN character. Keep up the good work verz

[NX-MEN]

Amazing work man like always!! 

Perfect design and very smooth animation!! His face was sprited very good!! 

With your Dr Oct, Bambulin's Scorpion and Dev's Tombstone the Spidey area of my Mugen will become richer!! 

[ELECTRO]

I love how Doc Ock re positions his lower mechanical legs while turning. It looks very smooth for how many frames your using.

[verz36]

thanks guys, he is shaping up pretty good.. he has been a challenge so far but the more I work on him the more I get used to it and the more I learn to make sprites in this style and shape.. I have to go back to some of the sprites I made and make them look more chunky. the tentacles is what really taking me long to do. im trying to make them as good as possible but im not good at animating. im still learning and just want to get better.. 

 

[Jmaxximus]

Very cool. Mind if I ask how you got the shinny coat on the tentacles?

[verz36]

hey jmax, that was done by xboy. its basically just like a sphere with that shine on top or bottom depending if its top tentacles or bottom. and u just overlay them on top of eachother so u repeat it to form the tentacle..

[dev.]

Hi verz. I suppose you're not there yet, but did you planned his hypers at this point?

[verz36]

hey dev, when I start making a wip, I start thinking about its moves overall. I do have some ideas for some. im working on a special as of now. he will get a maximum doc ock hyper ala spiderman.  was thinking about omegas hyper too. but I want to also make some more original stuff. im thinking about a hyper that he will make the tentacles turn like a drill and go at the enemy like that, maybe all 4 at once, of interchanging them or a combo of all this.. but im open to ideas and even mockups if anybody wants to help with them.. I know there are some of you out there with great ideas.. you guys know me, I like to make a lot of moves not just the same 3/3 that's the normal... he will get a chain hyper as well with some type of incarnation of a villain team like his sinister six but it should be different from sandman..

[helio]

Great work so far. I love it.
The four-tentacles forward drill hyper is a great idea, but Doc would need to go down to the ground, maybe a two-tentacles drill is enough and you don't need to do the transition to the ground, or use the crouch anim as a first move (if you are planning to make him touch the ground with his feet).
I think it would be also cool an hyper thrown combo, throwing P2 many times to each side of the stage and smashing him on the ground.
It might be cool too, instead of grabbing and throwing P2, grabbing and throwing objects from the back of Octopus, like bricks, stones, motorcycles, ...
Of course, some Sinister-six attack would fit. If you don't want to repeat Sandman's one, maybe you can make two or three hypers, using just a couple of villains in each one instead of using them all at once.
Well, I'm sure you can think a lot of better ideas for him. Good luck and thanks for doing it.

[verz36]

hey helio, thanks for the ideas. yes I think he should get a grab and throw  hyper for sure. I have a special that im working on where he throws different objects at you and I have the objects too, its broken pieces of concrete, metals and rocks. about coming to his feet for moves, its not a problem. and I think it makes him more normal to do that because he wont be on his tentacles all the times. he already has a hyper tha's on sandman sinister six hyper, im using that too and he comes to his feet for that. anyways, keep those ideas coming guys.. we can make a good dock with great ideas...

[dev.]

Did you ever think of something involving his octobots? We know he is a genius level intellect, so that should mean something.

[HyperVoiceActing]

I believe he mentioned the OctoBots before when he sent me lines to record

[verz36]

yeah the octobots are going to be cool for a special, I just need to think and find good sources for this..

now let me show you some improvements..

Try the spriters resource they have of octopus like robots on there

[verz36]

oh cool man, if you know some for sure, point them in my direction please.. ill try to go dig there and see.. thank you

[dev.]

Nice, cool uppercut.
For octobots, check Cyberbots' Jackal or Armored Warriors Insect. It's definitely these two games where you can find something you like. Also, they both are Capcom, so they'll blend nicely with your char.

[NX-MEN]

Looks excellent Verz!! 

I just love the way your style looks the same as Xboy's design of Dr Oct!!  This gives me faith that u will do the same Mcreedy's Warmachine and everything will look perfect!! 

Btw have u decided what palls u will give him or its too soon??

[HyperVoiceActing]

That uppercut looks a LOT better. Great job verz

[verz36]

@ dev
 ill check those out and thanks for the idea.

@nx-men
thank you and no I have not decided what pals to give him yet... but feel free to make some, if I like them, ill use them for sure...

@ hyper, thanks man... its been a challenge to sprite this character..
