Midi's OC Sprites

[Kelvin]

Here's some sprites of Midi I did in Tales of the World / Phantom Brave style. More to come later with this. Obviously I'm not gonna submit this because I don't think TSR takes OC sprites, but I wanted to show it.

UPDATE 1



OK, here's some different methods I tried. The middle is the original. Above is outlined to break the fur blending between his arms and tail. Below the tail is given a darker color to increase contrast. Which looks better? I also smoothed the pants a bit in the new images.



Here's just a little thing I wanted to try to see how Midi would look in MLSS style. It shows a transition of changes from Disgaea style to MLSS and has Mario next to him for size referrence.

UPDATE 2



Here's a couple animation tests of the M&L style. I'm quitting the ToW/Disgaea style because I don't think it really fits Midi's character anyway. He's supposed to be cute and stuff, and that one just doesn't feel right to me, so I'm sticking with the cel-shaded look.



And here's a more worked-up sheet. I know the animation for the death sequence isn't that great. It's just a rough draft. I'll smooth it out and then add some diagonal poses too.

UPDATE 3



Yeah, here's a new death animation and a knocked down animation, and a few other things.
