Title: [wip] rpg walking animations
Post by: missingno on August 23, 2008, 06:21:07 pm
Just something I've been working on a little bit this morning. I'm trying to come up with an rpg sprite style that's a bit more realistic than some of my other attempts.

It's a bit messy, because I haven't really gotten to the details yet. I want to make sure that I'm pleased with the animation and general structure first.

As always I'd appreciate some feedback.

the thin waist and hilit chest makes me think it's a girl, but the broad shoulders and mannish posture look...Mannish. So which is it?

also, the huge head and that thin looking body looks like they totally don't match

Ah, my friend in irc just said the same thing when I showed her.

It's intended to be a butch girl of sorts (space soldier type). The shoulders are definitely too broad now that I look at it, but the heavy posture is intentional.

Okay, I've made some changes.

Hopefully she's a bit more feminine now.

okay a little bit of a bump i guess. i've done a little bit of work on perspective. i edited the idle frame to try and make it seem more top-down.

i also started on the side-view. not much there yet, though.
