Re: SK's Art Thread
I've been thinking about making a case that would involve those freakin' amazing Athena sprites. Just so I'm absolutely sure, all I need to do is credit you (and everyone else involved in making those sprites) and notify you when the game is released to get permission, right?
If not, please let me know what else is needed. I just wanted to make sure so that I don't end up making anyone mad.

@Onizuka
Thanks I don't think I'm going to do any more Athenas after that though...too many XD
@Giz
Pretty much XD The Athena sprites are kinda spread across a bunch of people's work so sorry about that but yeah that's generally it.

Re: SK's Art Thread
Constance and the last bunch of Athena sprites have incredible lines, I am really interested in the way you made these.
Do you digital-draw the outline and then paint the color? In that case mind sharing your pen options?
Real neat stuff.

For the current workflow I use a brush I made a while ago which I think is the normal Photoshop Hard Round on 100% hardness/opacity/flow, nothing selected. The size is 4px. The sprite is drawn like 2x large and yeah I do the outline first and then colour. Constance's one I didn't colour in the outlines and just left them black but I lowered the opacity a bit...there's a lot of resizing magic I guess you could say XD Here's the thing it's resized from ish.

Re: SK's Art Thread
I think there is an improvement... I mean, it's hard to tell, and I might be wrong, because there is an obvious art style shift here.
What I like about the change (and the reason why I think there is an improvement) is because of the characters' legs. I realize the first one is meant to be skinny, but so is the second one: I like the way the thighs are drawn, despite being skinny, there is a certain "curve" about them (the lines yu used to draw them are not as straight as the ones in the first drawing, which I like for it makes them look more realistic).
On the same note, the new drawing seems to have volume, while the first barely has. Not sure about what is in there that gives off this effect, but the perspective in the new drawing is the greatest impovement, IMO. Good job! BTW, who is her?

Re: SK's Art Thread
Thanks for the feedback Volume is a good sign so I guess some of my study is working out,since the other one had a lot more effort put into colours/shading. This one has barely any at all XD
That's Violet Fey's new design so she's a bit less generic twintail tsundere, heh. Only in a suit and being 2kool XD
What are you referring to with the perspective comment? I'm not really following...

Re: SK's Art Thread
Thanks for the explanation, I'll experiment some stuff whenever I get back to making some sprites.
This last drawing is nice, although I feel the ponytail is a bit too much lol, the haircut may be cooler without it.

Oh, I tried to use a synonym for volume, but I ended up using a false cognate word hahaha.mercurialSK wrote: What are you referring to with the perspective comment? I'm not really following...
Maybe I should rephrase it as: "but I think the depth in the new drawing is the greatest improvement"

Re: SK's Art Thread
"last post september 24 2015"
Well ok.
A new sprite "Velvet Valentine" won first place in C-R's OC contest sprite division somehow.
<- Velvet
I can make fixes and do case-usable versions if they're requested or something like that, he's probably the last generally usable sprite in a while. Gonna focus on commissions and fangame things.
There's been progress on the Perceive generator. I can almost start posting screencaps now. Then there's like two sprite sets to make and stuff until drvonkitty and I can release part 1 of our case from 98321749 years ago. Framing on part 2 is happening. It took 98321749 years for my spriting speed and quality ratio to go up (I did Velvet's stuff in like...3 days) but it's still got places to go...Everything's still all happening really slowly. It's happening though XD

Re: SK's Art Thread
I was wondering what happened to ATCJ. Good luck with that! The perceive engine you wrote up was... not a simple one.
As for Velvet, I like the overall design, though I'm curious how that rabbit(?) is able to move.

Re: SK's Art Thread
The rabbit is made out of the same high quality fabric that Moe's hat is made of.
Also, yeah, that sprite is pretty amazing! Good job winning first place! I think I voted for it in first place too.
