Take two?

I'm going for a look like someone rides at high speeds quite often... No I'm not I'm just trying to explain my actions like a quitter.

Thanks about the armor, although now that I look at it, the back trim thingy on the chest plate looks a bit out of place.

[Mercenary Lord]

Another...thing.



Robot for a Medallion of Hope character. Animations are planned, etc. etc. This took me too long, especially since I had already made one, and then went back to redo it to the requester's standards.

This time around, if you decide to criticize, do you think you could put whether or not you would mind staring at this sprite for a large number of battles? If you absolutely can't stand it, then I might change it, but for now, I'd like to try and just move on the the animating part.

So, critique, but also say whether you actually like it or not. Thanks.

derp

[CT075]

the dither on the one on the right looks bad

try to have more solid colors

[Mercenary Lord]

It was supposed to look like wingz of light, not dithering

Plus those are old. I'll keep your advice in mind if I ever go back to them~

whatever it was supposed to look like, it looks like bad dithering.

[Mercenary Lord]

pew pew

Basically have no idea where I'm going with this.

Oh and a map for a contest somewhere else.

[Kitty of Time]

what exactly is he supposed to be doing, because I can't really figure it out...
and if he's supposed to attack after that red thing, shouldn't he step back after quickly moving his arm back down

[Mercenary Lord]

honestly, I have no idea what he's doing. I think he's supposed to be firing some kind of lazer.

And no, he'll probably step back in the next bit, since he hasn't actually started to attack yet.

[Lenh]

(3rding the don't know what's going on)

By the way his hand movements are, it appears like an energy gather->foward energy release (like how mages do their spellcast), but the red stuff makes it look more like his arm is supposed to be transforming and proceeding to an IronMan/MegaMan style shot (transform seems excessive for a regular attack in that case, he ought to go straight to the pewpew action).

[Edit: You totally ought to go straight to the fun laser part and do refinement later with the results, personal thoughts. ^_^ ]

[Mercenary Lord]

I was asked by the commissioner to make it really flashy.

[Mercenary Lord]

Guess an update can't hurt.



Somebody made Eliwood mad. :/

[Kitty of Time]

Seems interesting enough if i ignore the fact that eliwood is clearly compensating at this point.

[Mercenary Lord]

Obviously.

More progress. Lotta repeat frames as of now.

[Dai]

Personally, because this is just me, I think it would've been funnier to see that rapier turn into Durandal, and then burst into flames. That's just me, though. The hilt of that huge sword looks really wierd to me. Like, some kind of flat rose. I dunno...it just doesn't look right.

[Mercenary Lord]

I didn't make the sword. I just kinda took this sprite from someone else with permission a while back, and just kept fiddling with it.

[Kitty of Time]

then you should probably make your own sword :E

[Mercenary Lord]

I'm going to take Dai's advice, and just use Durandal. It makes sense, anyway. Besides, ain't nobody got time fo sword-makin.

So progress has been delayed.

[Dai]

It's kind of funny, actually. Eliwood wields Durandal off his horse on the boxart, so why he doesn't get that is beyond me. I suppose they wanted to keep it in line with his class in Sealed.

[Kramgnauh]

Eliwood has become He-man O___O
