Feedback plz on my first spriteset

[Halestorm5]

Im gonna update his battler hair to make it look awesome.

Ill update the first post with the new battler

[Halestorm5]

BOMP! The battler has hair!

[SirJackRex]

You shouldn't use the same color scheme on the battlers hair..you should try a different more real looking color for hair to match his body... Nice job though!

[Halestorm5]

Sooo... Lighter hair or darker hair?

[dollmage]

hmmm i think its good but can you make it lossen up a bit? like make it more wavy any way if that is the way you want it then its ok too =)

[Halestorm5]

How can I make it more wavy tho?

[SirJackRex]

Nice hair, but it's still shiny...

[Halestorm5]

Shiny? The battler or the spriteset? If its the battler, is it the clothes or hair. If its the spriteset is it the clothes or hair?

And Ive finally re-started on working on this again... I only make this in spare time too.

[SirJackRex]

The hair, it doesn't look natural.

[spoiler=Finished Spriteset][/spoiler]
I re-shaded his shirt, completely!

[Kokowam]

Ohhhh.... Looks nice! I just think that the face is a little duller in color compared to the rest of the stuff. But what can one do?

[Halestorm5]

I was gonna post a red hair version of him when he was done
So, here is his red hair version!

It's slowly getting there... I don't think it's in keeping with the standard RTP sprites... But I think with a little bit of time you could make it much better.

I think you sticking to the Primary colours has made it look very childish and overly cartoony... For example if I was making it (Now with my experince) I would make it look much darker, and drab... Those vibrant colours just look wrong for the era of the game sets... Way to modern... Looks like some thing out of a Nike Advert... The Black key line around the hair on the walking Up state is a litle in your face, makes him look like he has a Lump in the back of his head...

But your shading is good, it's all about right, the swapping of the knee pad is correct and in keeping, the animation is nice... For your first sprite it's good.

Here's my first ever scratch build:-



It's funny I made pretty much all the same mistakes when I started out, looking back at my first one for me is slightly embarrasing now... I think now I am creating some brilliant resources... like me you should Keep at it, I think you have potential, you taking constructive critisum well... Gilgamesh Gave me some brilliant pointers when I first started out !!!

[Halestorm5]

Well it did use MS Paint...

And what black keyline?

[landofshadows]

To the left of the back of his head (Slighty to the left of centre) his hair looks clumpy... Like a head malformity... Or may be it's just me...?

I have made your image larger and highlighted the far left where in my OPINION it looks odd... and on the Far Right done a very QUICK impression of what i think looks more natrual.



Hope that helps... I do like the clothing and shading, it's a good start !!!

At the moment the hair looks like a blob of melted plastic... But saying that many pokemon sprites look that way, so if your making a pokemon type game your sprite is spot on !!!

[Halestorm5]

It all depends on what other people think...
