Update.
Alkaline: They're actually meant to be a bit on the chunky side. Just a stylistic thing, I suppose... Do you think it detracts from them? I dunno, I'm always open to suggestions on style.
Terley: Thanks!
Lar: Never got very far in Minish Cap, so I'll take your word for it. Apparently I
will be making more, too.
Adarias: I see what you mean... I quickly tried moving the head up a pixel, though, and felt it looked.. off. Maybe with some tweaking I'll get to like it. I'll mess around with it, anyway, and see what comes of it, 'cause they
do look a bit stunted.
Feron: Never given an orgasm from quite so far away before. Might be a worthwhile experience.
Anyway, I'm working on it; the tiles and stuff, I mean, so we'll see how it goes (check my record for follow through first, though, so you don't get your hopes up).
Xion: Thanks! I'm on it!
Frychiko: Hopefully, someday, I'll work out some kind of plot and find a coder or something and take it beyond mock up stage. Not likely to ever happen, though... again check the record... but I can pretend, right?
Meta|fox: I see what your saying, and although your diagram might be exaggerated a bit, I think it makes it's point. Might have something to do with the priest's shape, or maybe I just fucked up
Honestly not sure. maybe the new version is better?
Fil_razorback: Thanks! I might be looking for someone in the future, so I'll keep you in mind
Dusty: I think you pretty much got what I was going for (armor making the soldier appear to have a larger upper body, and misinterpretation of foot placement leading to apparent perspective discrepancies). When I started the priest, though, he wasn't meant to be fat. That only happened later, when I made the side view. If you look at the tips of the feet (that show in the priest front view) you'll see that they line up with the tips of the soldier's feet (I hope, unless I screwed up). The feet look off 'cause they're hidden under the robe (I think).
Adam_Atomic: I think I fixed it in the update. Thoughts?
Thanks for the crits/compliments/general showing of interest, guys! I'll be updated more in the future, so keep the crits coming. Next up, I think, is a female base, which I'm currently finding a bit tricky. Any suggestions on how to go about it in the current style would be much appreciated.
