Isometric Female Base [WIP]

on: September 11, 2017, 07:58:56 am
I am working on a isometric female base sprite and I am looking for some feed back. Right now I am not so worried about shading as I am about shape, though I do want to keep the shading pretty simple. I am mostly not happy with the front and back views.

I can see what you mean, but I am not sure I like the thicker arms better. They seem to me to start to look manly. It is kinda crazy what one more pixel will do when working this small.

Try using a darker shade to alias them a bit thinner

Hello Dusk, you have a nice base here for contructing characters.

And you have a great notion of volume that shows in your turntable.
I've gotta make that exercise some time, it is pretty cool.

Mystery gave you a good solution on using the darker shades on the arms, you could also AA it a bit to give it more(or less width)

The game Witchmarsh has some great examples on good characters with few pixels, i think this might be the feeling you are looking for.

I love witchmarsh's art!

I messed around some with the arms, giving more bulk to the upper arm but leaving the forearm at 1 pixel.

Here, did a quick mockup of what I meant about the arms now that I had time to do so
