Title: Comments for my fish.
Post by: FZ on Thu 07/04/2005 08:16:01
Hello.
I drew a fish for my game. I'll call him... John Fish.
If anybody wants to, they could give me some c&c, because I ain't too happy with the outline and the rest of it.

And let me know if you can't see the pics.

You don't like the outline? Personally, I think it looks really good.

I'm not sure what emotion you're trying to give him, though. In #1, he just looks a bit sleepy, but by your final take, I get the feeling he wants me dead! I'd maybe make the eyes not quite so yellow, as that makes him look a bit drunk, too, or on lsd.

On the whole, though, an extremely atmospheric fish. That felt weird to say...

Very nice. Perhaps you could add some gills?

superquick edit.

Just some ideas. At least the light in his eye should stay...the scales need to be pixelated properly, of course....

Mmm, I'm still wondering about that, too. No doubt everyone's comments are spot on - this is a brilliant little sprite, but I get the feeling that he wants to be happy, but is looking angry instead. I want to give him a big hug and say "It's okay... it's okay..."

I love Andail's rendition of your fishy the best...
and I think that the angry look on its face suits it perfectly!

Also...

I do have the odd urge to hug it and make it all better!Ã,  ;)

It looks like it has an odd urge to bite off the head of anyone who tries anything like that..:D

I prefer it unedited. That's a really characteristic sumbitz.
