bad dudes

buncha creepy monsters. posted before this is my skeleton ensemble plus the characters they were modeled after.

this blood skeleton, ooze skeleton, foul skeleton(not satisfied yet), frozen skeleton and skeleton statue I'll have to think of better names, hmm...

this red one has an alternate palette.


the statue melts aways to become this skeleton-CC for statue.


skeleton was made from this guys structure, it's his bones, sort of, i was doing an edit while i was sick cause i was bored, he's still a WIP. Then this soldier was made from re-constituting the bones...reversely. Statue is obviously a replica of this warrior.

sorry dude no C&C from me, you have to fix links or change provider the images aren't displayed they are either misisng from server or server is down :]

Ok, the skeletons are alright. The rest is so pillow shaded, it's nuts. Pick a light-source, man. For the love of pete, pick a light-source.

[Dogmeat]

I agree with XIO, pick a lightsource!

What the hell are you all on about? Light source? You ever seen knight graphics? THAT'S THE LIGHT'S EFFECT ON METAL.



The metal parts at least, are shaded correctly. The only problem I can see is the hands.

[sojourner]

I disagree, light doesn't just magically distribute itself over all of the metal.

[xanthier]

light should be staright on like most sprites, yeah the hands are jacked it's nowhere near goo yet so i need C+C...I don't think interesting light effects are good for anything that's going to be animated or part of a game, more for artwork.

Suggestions for the metal?

[Draco Icebane]

I'm not saying it SHOULD be pillow-shaded, I'm saying it's NOT pillow-shaded.

[Draco Icebane]

And believe me, you never, ever, EVER want to use pillow-shading. NO official sprites use pillow-shading, it looks like crap anyway, and it is never ever the best method to shade. So use light coming from the upper-right.
