What do you think?

The top row is whats done, and on the right are the alt colors. (Modern colors, golden mario, and fire power)


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Gors - 05-10-2010

too saturated and could use contrast in some shades


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - nicktheslayer - 05-10-2010

So, make it more pale, and make the colors farther a part on the saturation meter in the color changer?

Gotcha.

What do you think about the golden/metallic feel of the gold mario, is that good?


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Gors - 05-10-2010

That doesn't look gold at all

since gold is metallic, it has higher contrast (notice the presence of dark blotches near light shines) than other material. Also it doesn't really hueshift to red; it gets kinda brown and orange instead


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - nicktheslayer - 05-10-2010

Well, im having a bit of trouble contrasting these colors, since it isnt my own pallete.

On my brown colors, one is actually a yellow, i dont know how to make it easier to tell the difference.

Any help?

The Punch-Out minigame from Wario Ware GBA had a golden bell that you can use for color reference.
You can get it on the site's front page.


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - nicktheslayer - 05-10-2010

I dont see it. Can you give the link?

(Oh, i meant help with contrasting the normal mario, not the gold one)

Okay, photobucket stopped working for me, but heres the updated golden mario in an attachement.

The big sprite is x4 the small one, and the i made the lightest color lighter, and i made a darker yellowish brown instead of red.

Here you have it:

For a better understanding of NES colors, I strongly suggest you to take a look at the NES sprites secton on this place's main page as well.


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Baegal - 05-10-2010

it still needs moar contrast


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Maneko - 05-10-2010

Honestly? That Mario looks as if he were on fire.


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Baegal - 05-10-2010

no, I mean his second shade could still be darker, and more brown :/ (like the bell)


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - CeeY - 05-10-2010

Instead of just constantly adding more contrast, shift the hue and desaturate the darkest shade a small bit.


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Blitz - 05-10-2010

Exavtly, u should make the shading come from the top instead of from the side.


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - nicktheslayer - 05-11-2010

Okay, how about this then?


RE: NES Mario new palette + shaded - Lexou Duck - 05-11-2010
