[WIP] RPG Girl (Update! 5/15)

[Sherman Gill]

Doesn't each power of 2 use up less space then the following one?

[tocky]

Not really, or at least, it's misleading to say so. Every time you increase the colour depth you're using more space - an extra bit for every pixel in every image, each time.

However, as the amount of space you use increases linearly, the number of colours you can use goes up exponentially:

1 bit: 2 colours
2 bit: 4 colours
3 bit: 8 colours...

Basically, the difference between two colours and four colours is the same increase in memory as the difference between 32 and 64, and so on for larger powers of two.

[Sherman Gill]

And uh... those are all powers of two. 4 bit would be 16, yeh? then 5 bit is 32?

[tocky]

EDIT: huh, I think I read you wrong. I must've read "previous", not "following". So disregard anything I said that sounded stupid. What I mean to say is that 11 colours, or 13, or whatever, uses four bits, same as using 16 would.

I'm not saying you should make the other eye visible. What I'm saying is that a large portion of the face is covered with arbitrary dithering that doesn't add any detail or shape to the face. Maybe it's just me, but I really can't tell what's supposed to be going on there.

Finally getting somewhere with the skirt!

I found a neat Capcom sprite (...)

I may be flogging a dead horse here, but that is so not a Capcom sprite. It oozes SNK style.

i like the edit labbeled new (?)
I would add to it a bit of contrast to the hair
but use more highlights in it and less on the rest of her body.

[tehwexxl0rz]

Edit! Mainly just tweaked some shading.... I like the torso better now.

I think I'm pretty much ready to call this finished! Unless anyone sees any SCREAMING flaws I'm failing to notice....?

Ack, of course now that I've said that, I'm finding little things I dislike all over the place. I need to get rid of some AA on the neckline. Also, some shadows could be cleaned up......

[I Am Uh]

Made a few choice edits. The hand, skirt, and a few other lil' things.
