Looks like something from Action DOOM!

Just zoomed it, looks perfect the size it is, and the colors look better that way. Reminds me good old DOOM Sharewere times were pinky Demons were a decent enemy in a map. The tail also look better resized, yet not sure how it'd work in a map with other monsters roaming behind, and walls, perhaps it just works fine.

nhyuck nhyuck don't listen to bloax he is full of shit

i don't know what i'm talking about when i say that the zbrush test thing would be a waste of time due to its weak design

The ZBrush Renders -> Sprites idea is a very good idea, but I would very much recommend to make the monster look like something (?perhaps like the thing I whipped up?) that isn't a smooth clay monster with tubes in it.

The point is, you sound like an irritating dick the way you recommend it, and last I checked, nobody wants to listen to an irritating dick.

The bootleg one, right? Too bad we don't have the names of people who did most of the artwork for the bootleg covers of Doom's shovelware :P

I am very mad when people say things that are wrong.
especially when they repeatedly hammer it in all of its wrongness

and then someone goes out to point out that i'm being too mean for giving out advice

hey maybe i should just go back to not saying shit here
because obviously nobody wants to hear any of it!

There's advice, and then there's pointed criticism, which is always hit or miss. It's not like this same thing hasn't happened before on this forum, in this very thread.

Easy, fellas.

Blox, There's a tried and true method to giving critiques. Start with something good "Good idea, seems to function" then go on to tell them why it's donkey dick (by not using those words): "You'll want to finalize a design, and maybe use a different material next time, at the moment it looks very unfinished."

Sugar coat it, because otherwise you put people on the defensive instead of coaxing them into listening to you (as shown in this thread). If it turns into a polite argument "I thought this wobbly clay monster looked fine enough!" Just respectfully disagree. Take the high road (420blazeit).

Can "you suck, so lemme do it for you" comments even be considered criticism?

dismissing someone's statement that the design is sound and ready to be used for a spriteset isn't criticism

and saying "give it an actual head, better feet, less boring arm cannons and jesus christ remove that tail" would be likewise shitty
