RPG sprite, SD3 inspired

on: December 02, 2006, 06:42:50 am
Hey guys,

I used to post at pixelation aggggggesss ago, back at the old swoo.net forums before they went down. Had no idea pixelation was back until I somehow stumbled upon the resurrected board here. Anyway, I doubt most would remember me, but I've recently got back into pixelling and thought I'd share a little something for c&c and whatnot:



16 colours, including transparency. Tried to give him a real SD3 feel, like the snes rpgs of old.

Look forward to sharing many more.

Looks great.
The hair is very well done, as is the body. It has a great RPG style to it.

My only slight discomfort is the lack of making out the face.

the big problem i have is that it is so close to the originals.  the feet are simply shuffled.  i would love to give you a more substantial critique for something a little more yours
A mistake is a mistake.
The same mistake twice is a bad habit.
The same mistake three or more times is a motif.

agree'd.  I had to go dig up the original just to make sure i wasn't looking at a colour edit. And that's never good.  Although, i still like the sprite. Great games.

Eh, it is true that I had a bit of trouble with the feet, but I think you'll find they're the only part of the sprite close to the originals. Very difficult to perfect. I took quite a bit of creative liberty with the arms, hair, face, and colour choice, however.

I tried making myself in somekind of topdown perspective view... doesn't look like I want... but... maybe it'll look better in some future :P

Uh huh.

I did say it was SD3 inspired, I never denied that. Have a closer look at the two and you'll see the differences.

Elrinth: No thread hi-jacking. Please do not post your pixels in someone else's thread unless it's appropriate/asked for.

_spyder: Stating references is okay, showing them is better. Firstly to avoid such situations and secondly because not everyone is familiar with the original.
