*** Artifacts of the Month ***

CMC/R45’s Prime looks pretty good so far. I think you should use it.

It’s too small by a long shot, however Rundas is working on that.

In other news, I did something I was supposed to do a while ago:

HE?!?!?!?!

idk

Where exactly are the plasma processing pipes?

Zurg: Looks good, but the shape of the bottom jaw is bothering me…

In the room with the Plasma Beam Upgrade. I’ll take some pics with my kamra, I’m about to get that upgrade.

agreed

Qft, but it looks like that from what I can remember.

Double post to show special something. :smiley:

2…freaking…hours…

Pastel? o_O

Sexy, but that will look really out of place next to Samus’ style.

It is very WIP…you should know this. >_>

Jesus…


Dither or no?

Shading without any variation in hue is not a good idea, even for something black. Highlights always need higher saturation than the shadows; otherwise it will just look plastic.

The dithering makes it a lot better, but it still doesn’t really fit the rest of the sprites.

DAMN nice lineart and contour shading, though.

That thing has freakin’ depth.

It’s trying to eat me!

Any suggestions for non-dithered shading?
Other then adding more colors?

Like 072 says, “variation in hue.”

For example, make the darkest part of it slightly brownish.

In fact, since the thing is supposed to be shiny as my car (cough) you could try metallic shading, in which (among other factors, of course) there is a sliver of almost-darkest color next to the darkest color, on the side opposite the light source.

Also, remember, the room you fight him in is devoid of light at all. It’s glowing from Prime Himself as far as I can tell, or is there just a lighting node randomly in those rooms?
