lol That's cool. (*Warning* off topic.....ish>>>) Is that game Okami any good?? Umm, It looks like he's holding something in his right hand but I don't see what it is...

Its a grenade, his stance is off by alot. Is he leaning forward or standing?

TheAbyss:

Thank you. And I was going to do him holding a gun, but I left him weaponless
(off: its pretty good, almost awesome)

VictorR:

There is no grenade, and his is leaning forward ( not to the screen, towards the side he is looking )

Adarias:

I fixed the arm, but I won't post yet, I feel like revamping him from ground up.

grenade? where did you get that idea? i thought it was the brush head from the game?

but yeah, i think the stance will be helped a lot by moving the shoulders, arms, and head portion back left and redrawing the torso accordingly.  also, the right arm is too long, i think bringing the elbow in a little will help this as well

i like the concept of this

You know, that's really not necessary.

"Naked Snake @ Okami World"                  :hehe:

Good consept. You need to work on his posture though. He's leaning his upperbody forward, but has his feet in an idle stance that's not tilted in the same direction. His arms, hands and head might need a little tweaking as well. Tried to do a quick example:

Removed the spike on the cameo to show the shoulder. This is at least what I guess you were aiming for as a pose. I could be wrong.

Hope it helps.

His arms are too long for his legs, elongate his lower half.

Adarias:

Thank you  ;D I fixed the arm, but I won't post yet, I feel like revamping him from ground up.  ;D

VictorR:

Well, if you feel like it, do it  :). But I see why you saw a grenade.

Gnarf:

 ;) Kinda haha

Snake:

 ;D Thank you too.
I was trying to do like he was rotating his upper body. I did the pose myself, but when I started pixelling, I messed the legs up.
I appreciated your edit, and I'll try to fix the points you've made.

Godslayer:

Thank you  :) Yeah, his proportions are messed up, because that's how the game is, but I didn't quite manage (i'm really off  :lol: ) to imitate the art style

If you want to emulate that sort of Popeye style, I recommend doing something like this:

Hope that helps you out with the style.

Well, I tried to add it, see if you like it.

If you want to emulate that sort of Popeye style, I recommend doing something like this:
  • Make the torso and waist area into a singular bean(?) type shape
  • Exaggerate the forearms, while making the upper arm and shoulders less significant
  • Smaller head
  • Shorter legs
(http://cross-changer.net/khris/images/susanosnake.png)

Hope that helps you out with the style.

Thank you Khris  :)
Yeah, there are many different characters, each one with a different deformation, one is fat (like the guy in the pic), other is strong, so mostly the style, is that the male characters have short legs for the size of their body. Like, Waka has really thin arms.

----

Like I said, I was gonna redo him to try to match the style of the game, and I have corrected (hope at least) the mistakes I made in the other.

Hey, looks nice! I don't have much to say as far technical stuff goes, looks fine to me. Though, I would have liked to see Snake with the body type of Susano. ;)
