RE: Now it's about ghosts - Chaoxys - 03-10-2010
Okay... I'm working on an enemy for that game with the character with the hammer... and it's bad. I need some help on this one...
See, the thing is, is that I'm not so good with spriting humans, especially females.

Anyone know any tutorials or anything that might help?
Also, it's a robot. He hands turn into machine guns or some shit. Or just some plain old C+C. Only reason I asked about tutorials is because I learn better visually than verbally.

You really know how too shade perfectly, because the sprite looks kickass. Me, I shade horribly and it makes the sprite I made, look like crap.
Well beyond me, your doing a excellent job.
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Sengir - 03-10-2010
I don't see any problems with it aside from leaning too far forward.
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Chaoxys - 03-10-2010
Main problem I have is with limbs and not making them too thick or noodley. I wnt her to stand all straight and propper, but at the same time i don't want the legs to be too stiff.
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Tea - 03-11-2010
If shes a robot, whats the problem with stiffness?
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Chaoxys - 03-11-2010
She's meant to be more human like, so I want it to look more natural.
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Darking - 03-11-2010
What SengirDev said. I can't find any more problems.
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Gors - 03-11-2010
draw a stick figure first, then work on the shapes
you'll have a better notion of the pose this way

here's two characters in the Phoenix Wright series that would fall under the "straight and proper" category
don't worry; none of them are plot-destroying character sheets, so there shouldn't be any issues with spoilers or anything
BUT ANYWAY
they should give you some concepts and references on what you're looking for
RE: Now it's about ghosts - Chaoxys - 03-11-2010
Ah, those will be of use. I'm still stumped on how to do the legs though. It seems like, to me, that the legs should be together... I can't really explain it however.
RE: Now it's about busty maid robots - Jovian-12 - 03-12-2010
perhaps, when you do more frames for her, you could go for making her motions more reserved? like, she doesn't get any exaggerated poses or flashy moves or anything. that can help create a robotic look while still not being stiff in a design sense. it's characterization through movement.

I want her to look human, and act human. Only thing robotic will be her hands turning into machine guns, and maybe exploding when defeated.
