Title: [FEEDBACK] RPG Sprite Jester
Post by: SnuggleFloofles on November 24, 2019, 03:33:17 pm
What do you think about this cute jester? The costume especially has been inspired by the kind medieval jester costumes with frills along the legs and contrasting colors.

I drew him in another style first, to figure out his design, too. Please let me know, if there's something you'd improve.

kind of warped and unnerving. I like that a lot though, feels like this dude's boutta start doing a standup routine about Sha'ly'gth the Endbringer's dietary habits

The sprite feels much more symmetrical (and thus somewhat dull) compared to the original drawing. Try to work some of that asymmetry back in there if you can! I think it might not have been intentional initially, but it works really well!

First off, I'm glad you like it, MysteryMeat and that's not too far from his personality, actually (although I'm have no idea who Sha'ly'gth is lmao).

I totally agree with what you're saying, eishiya, but Im not sure how to go through with that ^^'
I could imagine, making him turn more to the side like in the drawing and make his eyes less focused on one point. As for the other slight differences in symmtery, I wonder how to make them stand out that way in such a small scale.

just some random gibberish I put down to imply "scary cthulhu monster" since they always have names that look like that with all the guttural noises and apostrophes, lmao

as for the asymmetry I'm thinking it's mostly in the pose, don't let the static-pose sprite goblins consume your art

Ah, good to know!  ;D

Regarding the character, I'll try to work the pose out some more and maybe see how dynamic I can get him to be in some battle sprites, too! They'll be in more of a fighting game perspective, so it will be easier to pull off dynamics, I guess.

Here's my  two cents. Nice Character btw. Now I will definitely have nightmares. For Some reason this dude Creeps me OUT!
but anyways All I did was made his neck-piece more like the Original from the Artwork.
