PoP fangame sprites - Example

[Tremulant]

Might just be me, but I'd say it's just a tiny bit low on contrast. Monitor's a bit crappy here, but I saw these earlier (on a better one) and thought the same thing. Maybe someone else can back me up/show me I'm wrong .

Nice sprite, btw.

[Ryumaru]

i just think the contrast is really odd in places, tremulant.

[Tremulant]

I agree, Ryu. Looking at it now, it seems as though in the fully crouched frame, the lightest blue goes neon. Also, something I noticed before, but didn't mention: The outlines bug me, especially on the skin, 'cause they're almost the same shade as the darkest shadows (which almost defeats their purpose in some places).

[Dusty]

I personally think the animation is pretty 'girly.'
Maybe it's my own preference, but if I ever got down to pick something up, I wouldn't pull my legs together, I'd spread them or get on a knee and pick whatever I was going to get up from between my legs. As it is now, it looks like he's trying to keep someone from looking up a skirt.

Something like this(this isn't attempted shading, just trying to make it reliable with showing what depth is needed):

Sohashu, could you make a picture with the colored sprite in the game?

[Sohashu]

I made one.  I know some bits ATM are iffy.  Ill work on it.   

Keep in mind that is old.  so the crappy torso anatomy shouldnt matter. 

@ dusty - HE uses both hands,  I don't understand why you changed he amount of hands needed.

i actually would strongly suggest a different approach to coloring, something like this quickie:

done to capitalise on the dramatic elements of the atmosphere and the story.  not actually like this, but something a bit more defined and a bit more dramatic than just stright-forward relief and recess shading

[Sohashu]

I have no Idea what is going on there.

@ dusty - HE uses both hands,  I don't understand why you changed he amount of hands needed. 

'cause I don't know how many hands he used?

Do I sense a bit....jealousy...maybe?
