I might finish and make a full sprite thing, but I need to know what needs to be fixed…I iidn’t make it as a suit from any of the games, I kinda made it up myself…tell me what you think and if I should finish…
It doesn’t entirely lack shading, but it’s more pillowshaded than anything. I suggest adding some more shades of gray and blue. Use as many as you need for it to look good. It’s not like any kind of sprite has a limit of 9 colors! (4 for NES, 16 for SNES, or 32 for GBA)
-Alright…I did more shading…if it’s still not good enough just tell me…okay?..I’ll fix it, I don’t mind……AHHHH…I added more shading…I save it as a PNG, and the good shading went away…does anyone know the best way to save a sprite? without loss of color and still well-compressed? Any tips? This sucks…
Anyway, I love the design of that suit, but the shading sucks terribly. And the feet point in really really impossible and odd angles to each other. Her helmet is squished, and her hips blend with her gauntlets poorly.
Ahhh…alright…thanks for your help…but do you think it’s good enough for a second try? I’ve seen a lot of firsts aqnd stuff, and they aren’t too pretty…
Really… so far the only thing I can do are things like in my sword sprite thread, but it still seems like I know most of everything about paint… It just doesn’t seem like something complex to me.
It should be obvious that Paint itself isn’t what’s complicated. What’s complicated is spriting. The ability to make a realistic graphic is very difficult to attain.
