hmm? how do you plan to incorporate martial arts with a character who has swords for hands? I mean, kicks are a given, but the blades? most of jeet kun do involves the hands IIRC. tae kwon do I could see, since it primarily uses the legs, but with a character like this, that's almost to easy. i'm gonna guess you want to make him truly original. either way, i'm sure he'll make a fine addition to any roster. I know I want him for mine.

i'm also seeing a trend. you're keeping the head virtually motionless. is that something you're planning on changing in the future, or will it stay that way?

I was thinking the same. I will give him more emotion in some new animations.

I was a martial artist myself (judo, kickboxing, Muay Thai, South Shaolin Kung Fu and Snake Kung Fu, JJ and some wrestling). We can adapt most of the hand attacks to swords, its not that hard.

the jabs straights and even backhands I can see, but at that point, they... oh wait, I get it now. you're not trying to make a sword user fight like a bare handed fighter, your goal is to apply martial arts in a way that would work like a sword based fighting style, right? I mean, of course he can't punch. of course he can't do a back hand attack. if he tried, it would be what it's supposed to be. a sword attack!

am I thinking along the right lines now?

Nice edits

Intro idea - he throws silk handkerchief and cuts it in half with one sword and in quarters with second to show how sharp his swords are...

Nice! I will try to use them. Do you think you can edit his legs and waits in the same position?

seconded. that would be awesome.

O Ilusionista · « **Reply #57 on:** January 08, 2016, 05:33:23 PM »

I will see what I can do.
Thanks for the new head. I've edited both heads to give it more expression when get hits.

This made the hit anim more fluid (still needs to be cleaned)

O Ilusionista · « **Reply #58 on:** January 09, 2016, 08:59:50 AM »

All the boring hit animations are done, finally O_o
Guys, I need help with the cleaning process. Is anyone there to give me a hand?

Backwalk animation cleaned by Mudy

Rage · « **Reply #59 on:** January 09, 2016, 06:54:57 PM »

How are you doing the cleaning process, are you sending out a sprite sheet? If so I'll clean up what ever you like

Magma MK-II · « **Reply #60 on:** January 09, 2016, 07:19:17 PM »

He's most likely editing each sprite manually.

On another note:

Couldn't find a good leg over the animations posted and I'm too busy having my butt handed to me in Darius Burst. Maybe I could take a better look later.

I basicaly need to aling the black border (because it get jagged in some frames), add the black border where it isn't present (pay attention to Blademan's right - our left - leg, the sword has no outline) and cleaning straw pixels. I can send you each frame in .PCX, because I need then in different frames and in pcx so I can easily import it back.

I will pm you some frames.

I saw that you added some axe, but I won't use it for Blademan. Because I want to do a Tomahawk Man someday - he is my favorite robot master.

Someone did a MVC Tomahawk man.... But man oh man does it need work. http://mugenarchive.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=11549

Wow, that is bad. Very bad.

Manic · « **Reply #69 on:** January 12, 2016, 02:11:13 AM »

Heh, that's even a very old Tomahawk sprite I made, except the colors look a bit iffy. I'm a bit afraid to even test it.

ExeLord · « **Reply #70 on:** January 13, 2016, 10:59:35 AM »

Am I late with this idea? Though that if BladeMan is expert in swords his powersets could be based on legendary swords. Not only talk about them, but use too

Like some of these: http://www.smashinglists.com/top-14-legendary-swords/
http://listverse.com/2013/11/16/10-mysterious-swords-from-legend-and-history/
Some are inspirational... *imagined light sabers used by BladeMan* games can do, probably, not only real or from myths.

By knowing how "much" progress were made for TomahawkMan here and looking at your comments that character is one hell of monstrous abomination... Maybe someday he'll receive deserved attention and effort to become real TomahawkMan. Heh, I remember his cool look during smoking that pipe I drew in sitting animation Blizzard Buffalo (correct me if I'm wrong and that wasn't him) made with smoke from metal slug...

O Ilusionista · « **Reply #71 on:** January 13, 2016, 11:38:25 AM »

The idea is cool, but I don't think Blademan can "change" his swords.

ExeLord · « **Reply #72 on:** January 13, 2016, 11:58:02 AM »

Humm, well, than he won't be able to change to RM's weapons too... It's then only way like making elemental attacks. Like burning fire slash, invisible wind cut, vampire stab, lightning ground strike, etc... Still don't know why it's impossible, others have different stuff coming from busters, including swords and weapons appearing from thin air...

O Ilusionista · « **Reply #73 on:** January 13, 2016, 12:17:33 PM »

I will keep this on my mind. I will work on other things for now but I will work on him on my spare time

Magma MK-II · « **Reply #74 on:** January 13, 2016, 07:12:58 PM »

Blademan can throw swords on his Triple Blade attack.
