Promised Land | Goblin Campaign (1.8): Art Thread

[Dixie]

Well, I think the animation looks fine. Only the active element moving would be only the sword arm slashing. Right now, the animations moves a plenty: the legs, both arms, even the body and head go a little side-ways... What more would you want? That he winks, spits at the enemy and scratches his head with his third arm? (no offense intended, even if it may sound a bit aggressive, sorry) Anyway, maybe I am wrong on that, but to me it seems to move enough...

[monochromatic]

Hmmm....try doing that movement yourself. I find it sort of awkward. I find it much more natural to take a step forward when I slash with the sword. Maybe I'm wrong. Let's see how the animation turns out though.

[Monroid]

Eep, go back a page and you'll see I posted the lv 2 Prinak... I'm "filling" the animation now, let's see how it'll turn out

[monochromatic]

I think it's because it is still made out of "sticks", don't worry, he will twist his body to follow the motion of the swing

Here's lv 2 Prinak, I still need help with the shadows

(what about the scar? Does it stay or go? )

The scar is a nice touch. With shadows, you should ask artisticdude. Anyhow, this is looking good.

[artisticdude]

Fixed the over-saturation problem.

EDIT: and transparent lvl 2 Prinak.

[monochromatic]

Great! Thanks.

EDIT: Attached the Champion if anyone wants to edit.

[Monroid]

Well, if he advances from the Bladesman, then I'd be more than happy to edit it
(but if you want I'd do it anyways )

Oh, and here's the Lv 3 Prinak, I hope it isn't too overdone, and I edited the Lv 2 version because of the spears on the back, the banner on the main spear and the wolf's tail and all... well, I hope AD can help me with the shadows again

[monochromatic]

Looking great! Let's wait for artisticdude to transparentize the images.

And the Champion levels from the Impaler. The Bladesman does not level into anything. I just posted the sprite up so if anyone wants to edit it, they can.
EDIT: Whoa, typos

[Monroid]

I see, I see

Well, after animating the bladesman I'll see if I can do anything

[monochromatic]

Great! Keep up the great work!

EDIT: Hey guys. artisticdude, how's the Marauder coming along? And the re-coloring of the shadows?

[artisticdude]

...

[monochromatic]

Cool. Very cool. Awesome, thanks!

[Monroid]

Hey AD, I saw that the shadows of the units I made are rather lighter than the usual ones, I may know what's happened, I think that the color I used is already the product of the transparency

What did you make to do the Sage's shadow? Because it looks normal

And I'll post the animations, a larger goblin instigator (or hero if you want) because he is too short when compared to the lv 2 goblins, and also a pixel larger goblin shooter

[artisticdude]

They look lighter? Odd, I'll have to double check them, perhaps I messed something up somewhere along... I used the color select tool to grab the shadow color from one of the mainline units, and then slid the transparency slider to 40% for the eraser tool.

EDIT: I figured it out. I forgot that I'd left the transparency slider on 60% last time I used it. I'll upload the fixed ones in a bit.

[monochromatic]

Great work guys! Keep it up!
Rememer, if you don't know what to work on, you can always refer to the currents status of sprites list.
