I'm planning on making a sprite-based Coldwar era jet fighter game sometime in the near future that will sort of be like a super over the top version of the old game
Sopwith 2 with mouse control, plane purhacing and upgrades, stuff like that. It will be all multiplayer like say Counter Strike or DotA. Anyway, side scrolling action in a nut shell though I guess a better description would be 2d-scroller since you can go up and down too, not just sideways, but anyway.
I'm trying to makes some sprites for coldwar era jets starting with this one of a Mig-21. The mig is the bottom most plane with a F-8 crusader and F-5 tiger II above that I've been using as a reference since I like their style (both from the sprites of the old SNES game UN Squadron).
Criticism and pointers are very much desired, thanks.
