Tabuu's Takeover
#1
I'm working on some sprites of Tabuu, the final boss of Super Smash Bros Brawl, and wanted some advice/critique on how it looks. I'm also using a Megaman 8 sprite for the base.

Here's what I have so far:

I'm still not sure what it is, but for some reason I think I could do better on those binary-like lines that are on Tabuu. Anyway, I'm open to help/advice/critique/whatever on this!

That's a problem.

This doesn't look like Tabuu it looks like a Megaman character.

Well, Megaman sprites are the closest to human-like sprites that I use and Tabuu is a human-like character.

That does not look human. At least the face doesn't.

Tabuu does not have large boots, gloves, a strange blue thing on top of his head, or an animal like face.

I'll try to fix that. And what do you mean by animal-like face? Is it the way I shaded his head?

The way the helment combines with the face in many Megaman sprites makes him (and many robot masters) have ape-like faces.

Ah, ok. Well I did try to edit out the helmet and make the head a bit smaller to make him look more convincing.

That does not look like Tabuu, and how is this a sprite project?

Try to make it custom, it always turns out better that way.

It's still a work in progress. Anyway, I made two animations of his idle/floating stance.

The one on the left is the old one, and the one on the right is the new one.
Which one looks better?
Thanked by:
#12
out of those two, the right is much better.

Thanks, I think I'll stick with the new version of my Tabuu sprites. I'm fixing up the spritesheet I have right now!

That's one of the things I'm fixing now.
