Make this sprite better!

on: January 19, 2015, 02:21:56 pm
Hellooo, first post! :) (first post)
So i decided to start developing a game! I enjoy both making the sprites and coding!(Java)
This is the first finished(kinda) sprite of an teenager and he is the main character of the game! And so, he must be cool!
If you want me to tell you about him and his role in the game please ask! :)
Are the colors good? Did i paint it nicely? What about the desigh? xD
Go ahead and make him better in ANY way you think!(or tell me how to make him better)

Nice forum by the way, i am glad i find you! Great artists here! :D

Hey,
He looks pretty cool ;)
The proportions and body shape are good,
But i think his face and hands should have more detail,
also the edges on the clothing and body parts would look better more clearly defined (Harder Edges).
Other than that he looks pretty good  :)


Btw thanks for posting on mine :)

I think everything could have more details. The folds of the clothes, the face, the hands.(The thing is i don't know how)
But thanks mate for your reply. :) Much appreciated!

It could use quite some work.
- shoulders shape is odd at best,
- arms are too long, legs are too short,
- neck is too wide compared to the rest of the body stature,
- shadows on the skin are quite dimmed, that lacks contrast,
- contrast on the seams are excessive,
- lines for the clothes are jaggy,
- highlight on the furthest edge make little sense for volume.

I'd suggest you build a simplified version, cell-shading style, to get shapes right before you push further shading.

He's got character, though. Try keeping the eye position in your revisions.
