I'll do as many of these as you need me too! If you don't know how much to decide )if you want my help) I would say 5-10 but more if you want me too! :D

I forgot that I worked on a mage and a cleric for the arc rtp, here they are:

If they are ok, I´ll finish both spritesheet's and sumit them.

I like them. :) Feel free to finish them.

Is there an specific template or style for the rtp? forget that, just saw the template :shy: :facepalm:

Mage is done:

Awesome. :D

Don't forget to add your name and the list of the contributed filenames in credits.txt!

Yeah, it looks great. Erm... Is he supposed to look like he's bald? :^_^':

Yes he is bald.

2 new characters wip:

Female mage
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CRnRwOi8X10/TnrugQgHezI/AAAAAAAABjE/thj6CS2Tr_8/s1600/mvbmvb.png)
(wondering how I could animate that tunic  :'()

Hunter

HOLY SHIT!

Also, that female mage reminds me so much of Daos from Lufia 2.

The hunter's belt doesn't move when he moves so it looks kinda weird. Make the belt bump up/down by one pixel as well.

Yes, it's based on him. I´ll change the hair (style and color). About the hunter belt, you are right (too static), fixed: (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lZyaIqdXctc/TnsAkBiI93I/AAAAAAAABjU/_h6mFl7Hn38/s1600/ranged1_0_0.gif)   

Who will make a new version of Arshes? He has to be here!

D:  nobody likes Arshes...  heh, it's funny how by default, his name is actually Aluxes XD but everyone's like, "fuck it. Arshes."

One of the characters will become the new Arshes. And he will be named... John.

Also: Aluxes was the the official English translation of "Arshes" which is spelled by the Japanese as "Uh-look-ses", hence Aluxes.

Is that true or are you joking?

QuoteD:  nobody likes Arshes...  heh, it's funny how by default, his name is actually Aluxes XD but everyone's like, "fuck it. Arshes."

ohhh you really hates Arshes, Magus, take a look at this test of my orc template, you will be pleased for sure:

Like this? :V:



I don't know if what I said was indeed true, but I assume it is, because it makes sense perfect sense to me.

Holy crap. That female mage is looking awesome! If you can animate that tunic properly, that sprite will be truely epic. Thanks for your work so far. I hope you don't mind that I'm going to make minor alterations to the spirtes you've submitted (mostly on the head area. I am picky about the head :P).

@mcgluszak, I'm actually planning on making a version of Arshes, just as a joke. But that might not work legally, so I'm not sure.

Hey, LB, you probably want to edit the sprites that I have submitted since they are RMXP RTP style. ._.;

@blizz, yup. That's my plan. BTW, are we going to keep the civilian charsets? They're frankensprites from the RMXP RTP slightly modified to fit on our template. Is the mild edits enough to keep us out of legal issues?

I'm not sure. Maybe we should get rid of them to make sure. ._.

QuoteI hope you don't mind that I'm going to make minor alterations to the spirtes you've submitted

Of course, you can edit what you want.

Cleric back animation:

Female mage: I changed her hair to a blonded one (so is not so similar to Daos of Lufia II)
(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5Q2OLfVK1Tk/TnzWvP8X8YI/AAAAAAAABjY/CrDA8g36V0s/s1600/Femalemage.png)
Need feedback, I like this hair but not 100% convinced.

A barbarian: In this one I want to make a Barbarian character. He is 2 or 3 pixel higher than a normal character and I improved his muscles.
(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EKQiRQon-Go/TnzWwqdaroI/AAAAAAAABjc/jkr2Es7LWGk/s1600/Barbarian.png)

@Dweller, Cleric is coming REALLY well. I'm loving that hat. And good job on the female hair. You might want to add a bit more contrast. Though I think that barbarian is perfect. Nothing bugs me about it at all.

@Blizz, ya, that's what I was thinking. I'll get rid of em (if someone else doesn't beat me to it)

@all, I've started my work of touching up sprites. I decided to start with our 096-darkLord01 file (good effort by whoever made it, but it needs lots of touching up). I liked the cape and helmet mohawk thing, but I didn't like the all red outfit. So I gave him a gold trimmed purple tunic with red leggings and red undershirt. I also gave him some boots (he was barelegged before) and changed the face up a bit. I've only down the first pose, but here's a comparison shot. Does everyone like this dark lord ok? Or should I just scrap the design and make a new one?



I'm a bit worried that his outfit is too...meh to be a dark lord. I'm thinking he looks more like a fancy civilian or a fighter than a dark lord. Shat do you guys think? (and dang are capes hard. I hope my cape looks passable)

It's a very good sprite, but it doesn't look like a dark lord at least for me... It looks like a crazy punk. A dark lord would most likely be using an bad-ass armor, and be a bit taller and wider, imo. The cape looks really nice btw.

Alright. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks it doesn't look like a dark lord. I think I'll store it away and maybe turn it into a bard eventually. Glad you like the cape.

I'm thinking of redoing my "bloodlust soldier" for use as a dark lord.



What do you guys think? (should it be dark lord, or should I just make it a monster?)

(http://legacyblade.com/downloads/SpriteShrine/Charsets/BloodlustSoldier/prev.png)

Wow that looks awesome. That looks 1000 more like an dark-lord than the previous guy. It is perfect for both a dark-lord and a monster, maybe a monster-lord...

@Dweller: Excellent work! But IMO, the barbarian needs to have a broader chest.

@LB: Wow, excellent work!

*powers up both*

The new "wip" version of a Dark Lord is better, the first version cape could be used to a rogue class???

I made a first try animating the female mage tunic :s --> (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uH3Fk1nu5YA/Tn0Do8OjnjI/AAAAAAAABjk/CMM4AvwwNnw/s1600/femalemageanimation_0.gif)

@LB: I think Niche made that sprite along with the monk1 sprite. Feel free to edit them. If you want, you can change the darklord to something else.
I think that bloodlust soldier would make a better darklord.

@Dweller: You should also change the orange tunic to another color. This will instantly make it feel completely different. Try blue or cyan. You should also let the tunic wave around more if you want it animated while walking.

@blizz, ok. Is niche still working on the RTP? Can't remember seeing any recent posts from him.

@dweller, that's a pretty good idle pose, but the clothes hardly move. That many draping bits of cloth would sway a lot more. I know it's hard to animate such elaborate costumes, but it'll be good practice (and make it look way better). And I do agree with blizz. I think changing the color of the female mage's outfit will help make the RTP look more varied.

@all, glad you guys like the bloodlust soldier. That'll be SOOO easy to sprite. I know this sounds weird, but animating and shading blood is the easiest thing for me. So not only does the RTP get a badA** dark lord, I get an easy time of it, lol.

I don't think he is. But the sprites are his nethertheless.

Muhawhwhaa. I am pleased. DEATH TO ARSHES. LET HIS HEAD BURN UNDER THE FLAMES OF HELL. By the way, thanks for the information Blizz.

Cleric01 done: (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Fg_31R7oyxY/Tn6_0OWF_JI/AAAAAAAABj8/Y1SJtGHxbGI/s1600/cleric.gif)

My favorite is the violet one, what do you thinK?

I actually like the green one. It would be good if you changed that yellowish part (on the green one) a bit if you use it.
Don't forget to add your name for the cleric.

Keep up the good work. :)

Good job on the cleric!

As for the mage, the green and blue ones are a bit too neon. The purple is my favorite out of these, but it needs to be desaturated just a tad.

I agree, I like the purple one best but it is a tad too saturated.

Yes, my fail, it has the correct color in one frame but not in the 3 others.

Yes the purple need to be desatured.

To legacyblade: I´m working now on a few characters (just in case you need to know for organization):

026-mage01 (done)
036-cleric01 (done)
Fighter
Knight
Barbarian male (front view)
Hunter male (front and back view + front animation)
Rogue female
Mage female (front view)
Civilian female (front view)
Civilian male (front view)

I've gotta go to work right now, but when I get back I'll update the front post setting you as assigned for those items. Other than that, it doesn't matter which number you pick for a sprite. Just make sure if you're doing a number 5 for any sprite, it has to be an "evil" or "dark" looking sprite of that class (to add variety and keep every game from using the same few sprites as villains.)

Last days I was busy with work and RL so didn´t have enough time to pixel art, but I´m still working on a few characters:
(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-iM24zIbpXj8/To6M5ZxJv_I/AAAAAAAABkE/2Y8YxArgYI8/s192/test.png)

Next week I'll propably finish 2 more characters full spritesheet's.

Those are great! :D I hope to see them finished soon. :)

I really like the purple haired dude o.o I see him being used in a lot of games.

Wow! Those look just great, and they'd look better if you smooth the shading a little more. Great job :up:

That's a dude? You mean row 2 col 4, right? I thought it was a girl, what with the bouncy looking short hair and the large gown-like look of his robe o_o

I think the mage (row 2, col 1?)'s dress looks a bit like the contrast tool went nuts - A bit harsh on the eye. If you moved some of the highlighting to the hair, we'd be all set :)

Just throwing in my two pence worth. I've quickly thrown together the standing pose for a Male Scholar.

(http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n110/Loki_Blokey/ARC/ScholarPreview2x.png)

I threw it in at 2* magnification to show the poor poor shading.

Now I'm none too confident with my spriting abilities, but let me know what you think and if it isn't too abysmal I'll carry on. If not, I gave it a shot!

So I made some samples of my work. I created a template from the RPG Maker Fighter Sprite.
Let me know what you guys think.





NOTE:Sorry bout the difference in size, I forgot to resize one.

@Mad.Array, That looks pretty good. The hair is a bit sloppy, and the clothes could use some more shading (or maybe increasing the contrast will do it). Also, add some shading on the hair line (darken the skin a little), it usually makes it look better. Other than that, looks good. I hope you finish it.

@TheSquish, your spriting looks decent. But we already have a template. If you'd like to help out, use that.

Started working on more random sprites.
Preliminaries for male knights.
*Please ignore the haphazardly applied hair

Male knight in plate armor


Male budget knight in tunic/mail


Whattchu guys think?

I'm really digging the budget knight. Please finish him!

And the regular knight is pretty good too. If you clean his hair up a bit, he's gonna look freaking awesome!

I agree with LB, those look great.

Also lol @ BUGDET in Budget Knight. xD

such good sprites!
Squish, I lov- *cough* level you up.

Moving along...more preliminaries. Female knight


and female barbarian


Plate mail dude will get finished at a later date.
My current goal is to make 1 male and female for each class

Lol, the female knight looks kinda like a female version of a sprite I made awhile back. She's s cute!

And well, there's not much ON the female barbarian, so it's hard to critique her. Maybe change the bottom bit from a bikini to a loin cloth. I think it'd fit better. But it's fine as it is now too.

More drafts

Male Barbarian


Male Mage


Male Cleric

Cleric was kinda borking my brains. Right now this sprite is giving me alter boy vibes...not sure if that's a good thing.

They're looking freaking great so far! Keep up the great work!

New Draft

Female Rogue


Also thinking about putting hat on male cleric. What you guys think?

It would be good if not all clerics had hats just for the sake if diversity, but it suits him just too well. xD I'd say keep the hat. It also makes him look "less badass", more like a nice guy and healer type.

New Draft

Female Cleric fresh from the nunnery or wherever they come from


Edit: So busy with random stuff. More Drafts!!!

Male Hunter. Somehow he ended up with Sora-ish hair...


Female Hunter. For some reason I imagine her with really hairy legs.


I decided to go for the mahou shojou look

Wow, really good job :)! *levels up*

OMG..so I was totally sick for a good bit of February.
Ready to get back on the grind even though I still got quite a ways to go with Doctor appointments and such.

Anyways...alchemist are making my head explode so can people send me pictures of what they think an alchemist
should look like? Male and female please.

Thanks.

Maybe these?

I made this using your standard sprite.
(http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w158/jonbonium/Pixel%20Art/LeprechaunGif.gif)
I thought you might want to use it etc.
I also had to make a 'small' skin to go with the sprite. I noticed you didn't have one posted, so I figured I would post it in case you wanted to use it as well.

Here is a download link to a small pack including the leprechaun and some icons I made to go with it.

No credit necessary for the skin.
