More or less finished - Chris2Balls [:B] - 05-30-2010
I fused my two characters:

This is an edited splice, each bit taken from one of my sprites though (resized, erased and kept outline and reshaded etc).
What do you think? Anything you like/ don't like design-wise? Edits would be deeply appreciated

Hip, but Id like more contrast.
RE: More or less finished - Lexou Duck - 05-30-2010
The dithering on the pants looks wierd.
And what's up with his arms ?
RE: More or less finished - Chris2Balls [:B] - 05-30-2010
Dithering's to convey textile and introduces a gradient in the trousers, did some dithering on the jacket for the former purpose, but not on the shoulders for readability. I made the contrast a bit higher (not much), but I wanted to keep a distance between the black and the shading.

He's supposed to be keeping one hand against his left headphone, and the black thing's his dense arm hair.

Oh, ok.
You might wanna redo that gradient, it doesn't add up.

these arms need a serious increase of mass and volume. unless they're suposed to be made of sticks.
also the neck looks extremely flat.
RE: More or less finished - Chris2Balls [:B] - 05-30-2010
I basically wanted the dithered colour on one leg and the pink on another. I changed the dithering a tiny bit, if you could tell me what is precisely wrong I'll try work on it. I've added a portrait I'll shade next weekend:

Okay Tyvon, I'll see what I can do about them.
RE: More or less finished - Cobalt Blue - 05-30-2010
fuck i said i'm not tyvon wearing a wig
the dithering makes the pants look as if they were made up of fishnet
you might as well use a solid colors based gradient-

Keep the texture gradient on the jacket, but It also looks like you have a small amount of banding on the neck.

Better? Or were you thinking of his adam's apple?
RE: More or less finished - Cobalt Blue - 05-30-2010
i dont believe it needs all that amount of anti aliasing at all on his body.
the pants looks way more defined than the torso for the same reason.

I reduced the AA, I tried without and didn't like it.
EDIT: ugh, it looks jaggy but its late so i'm calling it a day. Feel free to edit it.
