Mugen Jay Garrick, Golden Age Flash 2.0 WIP

[mon-el]

Hey guys while Professor Zoom is in the final touches of getting coded, I've been wanting to sprite but been either busy with work, or dealing with junk in my real life. Yep. Life stinks. . 

But 2 of my favorite comic book characters have come out this year, and both are going to be wips of mine, and are going to try to work on simultaneously.

The first one is Ben Reilly, the 1st Scarlet Spider, I'll post sprites of him when I at least finish his jump sprites.


Second is Jay.


I know what you're thinking, I already did Jay, well, sense his brief return, I've wanted to revamp his sprites and Improve his game play and more. So expect some a few new hypers, specials, I don't have a coder in mind just yet, Youngsamurai isn't as active as he used to be so I may need a new coder. But I'm just focused on spriting right now.

Also, If at any point in time Someone rips voice clips from Injustice 2, that would be awesome and would love to use them for Jay's revamp.

So here's what I have so far:

Stance


Walk Forward


Walk Backward


Jump/Crouch


Basic Punches


Basic Kicks


Let me know if you guys think I should add a smart pallet to him, to make his pallets more diverse than the previous ones.

Hope you guys like what I have so far.

I see you got some animations done.

[dev.]

I like how you improved his walking animations, but stretch the upper body a bit more. Now it makes his head big.

Excellent job Mon-el!! 

My only biggy is the thunder growing in his chest as he breeths however all in all I am excited with his update!! 

Who is coding the update? Whip?

[mon-el]

@NX-Men - No Coder yet, just focusing on the spriting, I may ask for a new coder when I have more completed on him.

@Dev- Yep, I was never really sold on the walk sprites to begin with, just looked to funky. I blame Cyclops for that.

But yeah, I'm going all out for Jay, He was my first character and I want to do him justice. So I'll make the nessessary adjustments to fix anything caught.

New version of Jay Garrick? excellent idea! moreover you have a very good style.

I foresaw how you will be so creative for his future intros x) just like you were for Reverse Flash.

[mon-el]

Updated First post with New Basic Punches. Hope you like them.

@Citizen, oh yeah, I defenitly have some new ideas for him, for hypers and his block animation, I haven't thought about yet, but I'm always getting new ideas when it comes to Jay. 

Just some ideas I have so far.

Specials:
Fast Knuckle Brawl
Mercury Kicks
Helmet Toss
Dizzy Spin
Flash Dash

Block animation: [New] Jay will hold his helmet with both hands and in different directions very fast, be able to block oncoming attacks and deflect them.

Hypers:
Whirlwind Uppercut-Same as Before, Inspired by win quote from first Injustice.
Ring the Helmet-[New Hyper] Jay repeatedly beats on his helmet, creating a sound wave at opponent.
Abrupt Stop-Same as before.
Speedforce Assault-Same as before.
Recalling My Days in the War-[NewHyper] Inspired by Injustice 2, Jay grabs opponent, and travels through time onto a battlefield in WW2, where the opponent gets shot up by Americans and Nazi soldiers, then taken back to present and thrown into the furthest wall.
Calling the JSA-Same as before, may just make their attacks different or leave it alone. don't know just yet.

Hope you guys like the new punches and ideas.

Excellent Mon-el!! 

As for smartpalls u mentioned above I think its ok as he is. Do u have any alternative costumes in mind you want to implement on him?

I did a mock up Smart Pallet to give an idea of how I'd want it to look:


As for Pallets, I do.

See, with his regular being his default, will represent his more modern costume.

But I would create a brighter pallet to represent his Golden Age appearance, and darker appearance to represent Rival (Edward Clariss). Along with a Reverse Golden Age Flash look (Yellow and Red Shirt with grey pants.

But Also include the CW Hunter Zolomon Jay Garrick outfit, Cobalt Blue, WW2 Green Soldier Apparel, Pure Speedforce ala Kingdom Come Inspired, his Elseworlds Liberty Files look, or just being able to wear a short sleeve version of his shirt.

Nice progress

[mon-el]

Hey guys, sorry for the late update, just been busy with real life junk.

 Anyway, the first post has been updated with Jays Basic kicks. Hope you like them.

As to what I sprite next, we'll see. 

[NX-MEN]

They look very nice Mon-el!!! 

I think I will also keep the older version of him in my Mugen too and call him the Rival!!  If I remember correct it has a Rival pall

Thanks NX, but sense you mentioned the Rival Pallet, it made me want to get a few pallets made up, so I tinkered around and made up a few, I'm not done, I'll probably come up with more, but it's a start:

[ELECTRO]

Thanks for the update!

[dev.]

Nice pals.

[NX-MEN]

Love them Mon-el!!:

[verz36]

nice to see this update man. this character keeps getting better. I just have to say that most of it looks super cool man. loving those pals too. as far as critique goes, if you resize his arms on both walks, this will make him look even better. I feel they are to skinny for his torso.. still congratz on all the hard work you been doing man. keep up the good work!!!!!

[Citizen]

The "CW Zolomon" palette is my favorite!! excellent work as usual, buddy.

[O Ilusionista]

Indeed, really nice work

[mon-el]

Hey guys, long time no see. And no, I'm not dead. 

Anyway, I wanted to explain my absence as to why I've not been active with mugen lately, long story short, Real Life kicked my butt hard.

First, my older sister was having some problems with my niece, so we took her in for 4 months, so trying to work and take care of her was fun.
Second, employees where I work kept dropping like flies, one retired, another quit, and another one likes to make up excuses so she could party most of the time (so she's pretty much fired) so I'm working like 35+ hours, six days a week.
Third, My mom had a second attempt at her heart surgery,(Michigan doctors screwed up) and she almost died, because they missinformed her on what the problem was with her heart. So I've been been trying to help with that to.

Right now, is my vacation so i'm trying to get a few things caught up around the house that I could't before.
Eventually, I will get back to finish Jay, once things get a little bit more stable. . He'll definitly be finished before I decide to retire.

Just wanted to keep you guys up to date on what's going on, nothing sprite wise has been done on Jay, this is the first time in months I've been on my computer. but I'll get to him eventually.

That's a promise.

[Uche_of_IMT]

I understand completely. Nowadays, life can kick your butt.

[dev.]

Good to hear from you, buddy.

[NX-MEN]

No worries at all buddy!!!
