i just realized that there is a white outline at some parts of the old suit. maybe a bit too much anti-aliasing XD. anyway, you can paintbucket the background black and then just turn the remaining pixles black also.

and, i just noticed that the dirty effect makes the arm plates look like beige cloth.

by the way, what program did you use to make these? they're certainly not paint creations, thats for sure!

Why aren't they paint creations? I can make them if I put a couple hours work into it. probably.

and, btw, don't make the last one's colors blue. Make it black or purple or something. Blue just doesn't fit Samus.

Blue and gray is supposed to be Samus's "sidekick"'s colors, Houston. You can't make her look like Houston.

er...dude....your cool and all but "blue just doesn't fit samus" is something that is a little annoying, just one more time (no offense to you gegojr, i simply am doing this so people can see this) THIS IS NOT SAMUS!!!!!

THIS IS NOT SAMUS!


also, yes, they were done with paint, and they really didn't take an extremely long time, i had the basic one, and edited it, the one at the top took like 15 minutes (without shading right now, shading takes a lot more time than actually drawing the sprite)


the white outline is because i started with paint using the background as white, but soon changed it to pink so it would be easier to recognize the pixels when using paint. why isn't it paint? i used like 7 different shades for the first one, though when i finish detailing it, it will have armor cracks and at least 13 shades, most likely with minor dithering only. so what you guys think of the last suit? i mean the design, i will post it with full detail after i shade it (after you guys give me some imput)



also, i am very sorry that i saved the blue suit as a jpeg, it made it crappy....my bad, i will get a better detailed one out (before dazzy gets me, lol)

Oh, sorry. I thought you said it was samus, lol. I'm mildly confused. Since it isn't samus, its great!

I think the arms look to much like a cloth. are they supposed to? And the shape of the shoulder pads isn't that great in my opinion.

I like the Tron-ish look. Though I would make the gray slightly darker so that you could really contrast it with the lightblue lines.

if you want them to look like armor plates, make them segmented, and more... defined (if u know what i mean). example : streight line here & streight line there = armor. Curved line here & curved line there = cloth =p

The red one, not the blue one because if you clame to have made the red one, I don't believe it.

yes, i did indeed base it off of that, however, i made quite a few changes, and drew it myself, so yes, i did make it, just look at a comparison, the size is different, shading different, etc.

i liked the design, but i did afterall change it, and i changed it some more, so while even now it looks somewhat simiilar, it is not that sprite (they didn't even have a sprite sheet)


if you want, i could post an example :D


also, i changed my mind about the cape, you keep the cape for half of the first level (i couldn't resist)

see the large character for details (click on pic...)

If that had Power Suit legs you know what I would do? I'd never play M: Outbreak. Get some legs - like the Power Suit EXCEPT:
1.) Larger
2.) Look less handmade (i.e. more boxy-like)

i was working on a new character for the aiming bit, and i wanted it to be less bulkysome, so i worked on one and it sucked, can someone help me out?

Posted Image


this is the basic, without shading (i have to do shading later for each aiming)


think i should just get the one from before and smoothen it up so it looks closer to this one? (yet un-crappy)
