RE: A Link to the Future - ProtoTroid X - 04-05-2009
Sorry for the lack of activity, I had problems with the back pose, and I was working on the shield.
WolfNM, your shield is better, but I think I will go with mine, and once again sorry for lack of activity.
Next up should be the sword.
RE: A Link to the Future - WolfNM - 04-05-2009
lol if mine is better how come you're going with yours? Oh well I don't mind really, got quite a bit of other stuff to do as well.
RE: A Link to the Future - ProtoTroid X - 04-05-2009
Well it's just. . . . . The shield is supposed to be small, and yours was too big, looked like the mirror shield from the game. . . Well that's a great idea, I'll give yours a few edits and it could be the mirror shield.
RE: A Link to the Future - WolfNM - 04-05-2009
sure go ahead
RE: A Link to the Future - Niko Bellic - 04-05-2009
I did a completly custom sprite of the wooden tables. It looks just like the one from the game with a new colour pallete. Even though it looks like crap I am taking criticism.

RE: A Link to the Future - ProtoTroid X - 04-07-2009
I'm impressed Niko, but they seem a bit too small. If the other one is a chair, it's too big. Here is what I did.
See, but I wasn't sure what that large square thing was, I just knew that the thing I put Link standing at is a table.
Also, I'm going to post the updated Link in the first post.
RE: A Link to the Future - Niko Bellic - 04-07-2009
If you played the game the left sprite is a basic table. The right sprite is also a table like the dining table. Bith of them can be found in the house you start of in. These are top down-ish kind of sprites.
RE: A Link to the Future - Alpha Six - 04-07-2009
These sprites need a lot of work. A lot.
Just saying.
RE: A Link to the Future - WolfNM - 04-07-2009
it helps if you say what exactly it is that needs work
RE: A Link to the Future - Alpha Six - 04-07-2009
Everything.
Poor shading, construction, bland style, contrast issues, poor palettes. And Link's animations look dreadfully awkward and look like no effort was put in them, as well as most everything else.
RE: A Link to the Future - Niko Bellic - 04-07-2009
Who's sprites? Mine...His..Both?
RE: A Link to the Future - Alpha Six - 04-07-2009
All of them share the same general issues.
RE: A Link to the Future - ProtoTroid X - 04-08-2009
And this is why NES Reborn is dying, and why Metroid Enhanced would die if I ever started the project. I'm honestly discouraged by your comment Osiris, mostly because this is the best I can do.
This Link sprite is actually the first Link sprite I've ever made and made it good, you would not want to see any other attempts. *shudders*
But really, I'm bad at shading, but I don't want 8-bit, and I certainly won't go through all the trouble of rebuilding the sprites. Do you know how annoyingly long it took me to make those? Let me tell you, forever.
But I do appreciate that you're trying to help, but as I said, this is really the best I can do when it comes to custom styles.
RE: A Link to the Future - Niko Bellic - 04-08-2009
Serious Osiris shut the hell up because you are so negetive on everything.
I think this is a project I always loved this game. ProtoTroid keep on what you are doing I think your sprites are great and perfect for a remake.
RE: A Link to the Future - Vipershark - 04-09-2009
No, you shut up. Osiris actually know what he's talking about.
Just a heads up, the running animations are pretty terrible. Did you reference anything while making them?
Anyway, the color pallette also needs some work so I'll make a couple of edits to fix it.
edit- I know this is an lttp remake, but does he really need the purple hair? Not only does he look better with blond hair, but since you're remaking all of the graphics anyway you might as well update them to what he actually looks like.
