Any suggestions what to do with it (the face especially)

George · Fri 01/10/2004 11:46:02

I haven't really changed it muchâ€¦ just fixed up his face, proportions and messed around with the colours a bit.

Here's a quick idea for a face in a style I think you'll be able to emulate:

Compare with your original image, especially the ears, nose, mouth etc., then try it yourself.

Blade · Fri 01/10/2004 12:23:16

Thanks guys.

Now I'll have to get to the boring stuff of correcting animation loops.

InCreator · Fri 01/10/2004 12:35:27

hm. And if you can "emulate" strazer's version already, there's way to go further:

It's about same thing, just more colors...

Image is way too small to have any detail with so less colors, so It would be wise to use more colors. Every pixels adds detail!

Blade · Fri 01/10/2004 12:57:09

Here's what I came up with using your advice

EDIT: That should be it - small detail because what I show you is larger than actual character. The head's maybe slight too big.

Oh, and should I draw lines to distinct the arms from his torso?

BlackMan890 · Fri 01/10/2004 13:38:00

nice but he looks very fat...
but the hair is GREAT
also, fix the shoulders to arm(the 2 pixel to the side)

Krazy · Fri 01/10/2004 17:33:17

It's looking quite good. But he looks a bit angry

I think next you should add some detail to his body.

P.S I don't know what you're talking about blackman he doesn't look fat at all

Mr Flibble · Fri 01/10/2004 20:32:31

If thats your idea of a fat guy then god help us all.

I love the new image, but he does look a bit angry. Other than that I really love his stance.

Moox · Fri 01/10/2004 20:50:26

Blackman, stop post whoring useless info, he isnt fat, but whats wrong with a fat character?

I say change the brows, a bit to angry

Sam. · Fri 01/10/2004 21:02:48

the reasn he looks angry is taht his brows run into his pupils, channge the colour of the brows to a dark version of the hair colour.

Blade · Sat 02/10/2004 01:42:50

I'll defend blackman - I edited the thing several times and made the guy a little slimmer.

Babar · Sat 02/10/2004 05:37:15

Yikes Lost, that was a bit harsh. I think what he meant was that the HEAD is too fat. I mean, the guy's entire hand could fit into his mouth!

Moox · Sat 02/10/2004 22:39:14

I know it was harsh, but he has replied in every thread.
Who cares if the char is fat, half the world is. Is this char the crim or the cop?

Krazy · Sun 03/10/2004 02:32:21

Yeah there's been many portly characters in the past that we all know and love, Hoagie from Day of the Tentacle for example.

Blade · Sun 03/10/2004 14:28:48

Guy's a cop - homicide det.

Don't know how to improve his body but I made all the loops and the animation looks quite good.

AnybodyÃ,Â got suggestions how to draw his face from the side? That's what I've got:
