Jappio's RPG Sprites
#38
Yep, it's an RPG with a FF style type perspective, for the most part at least. I have a mock up a few posts ago to a Youtube link that kind of shows the idea behind it. That green line is just my own personal little helper tool.

As for the animation, I only had that much lung because it was recommended earlier.

As for the foot stance, I do the move in real life and even with a toy battleaxe, and I don't require a step with it. If which hand was holding the axe were different, I could see that. Yet it's his right hand that is near the head of the axe, and his right foot that is already forward, so stepping forward feel unnatural, as it's already there. Bring the other foot forward doesn't jive well with the swing.

However a stomp in general could help the animation I've been told elsewhere. I wish it were something I'd heard mentioned earlier when I had the more basic base going.

Yet the character does lean forward. In the middle, when he has the axe up, notice how tall he is. Then when he brings it down, his chest and head are much lower and you see less of his stomach. Due to his angle, the lean is more towards the viewer than anything else.

Here is a version without the lunging:

So the plan is, the next chance I get to seriously sprite, is to kick out his back leg so it's bent the other way, and add something in that makes it look like the first leg lifted and slammed down (which will be hard to show thanks to where the swing is).

Thanks for the tips, hopefully this time I can get it right *sigh*
