[SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!
Re: [SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!
I saw it - was lousy. :/
Re: [SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!
I would check it ingame. I fear it will look bleached, because it lack contrast on the skin. Otherwise its nice, there is never enough HeXen/Heretic sprites.

Heretic/Hexen? I thought it was a ghoul from Fallout, wearing a tattered leather armour/vault jump suit.
Re: [SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!
I'd actually nixed some of the contrast deliberately, thinking it wouldn't make sense for a goulish looking badguy's skin to look shiny. You're WAY better than me at this stuff, though, so I took your advice and reworked it. Also hacked a few different frames together to give him a weapon - -neoworm wrote:I would check it ingame.

EDIT: Changed the original pic in light of icytux's suggestion. Hopefully this will be a better compromise between having too much contrast, and not having enough of it:

Re: [SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!
it looks sort of better that way, but now its more visible that its pillowshaded, the top of its shoulder and arms are very dark, they shouldnt be as dark as under the arms for example.
Also there might be just a little bit too much black on the darkest shades, try with just a little bit less contrast.

Looks more Strife than Heretic/Hexen to me. Some hideous experiment secreted away in a laboratory of the Order, perhaps.Globe wrote:
A concept frame I whipped up in about fifteen minutes. Since the base only has two walking frames, I'm really hoping I can keep the discipline to make a full spriteset. It really bothers me that I haven't managed to make any new Heretic/Hexen enemy sprites, given how much I love those games.
Re: [SPRITES] Spriting Carnival!!
I guess the arms and forearms could be shortened a little, while the legs and calves are lengthened a bit. If they're supposed to be undead humans, they can stand to have some amount of mutation (claws and talons), but not completely different proportions. Realistically, the hands should arrive at the height of the belt. Some amount of fudging is of course okay because it's pixel art and a monster, but I find it a bit too much out of proportion as it is now. Try to remove one or two rows on pixel on each arm and forearm, and add instead one or two rows on each leg and calf.

You compel me to nitpick the Vulgar and resprite it. D:neoworm wrote:I would check it ingame. I fear it will look bleached, because it lack contrast on the skin. Otherwise its nice, there is never enough HeXen/Heretic sprites.

Well, you could increase the contrast and give him a meaner face....
Oh no what have I done!

He should face the other way, though.
But still, nice one. Certainly made me laugh.
