Need C&C on"believably-ish" Chinese character

Ahh, you've already edited your sprite!

Well, I just post my take on it anyhow, maybe you still want to have another go at the sprite, if you like some of my edits...



I thought Khris made some really good edits, some of which you already incorporated

Khris, valid points, and several of them I could use to good effect.
* smaller feet- I really have to work on these
* chest- makes indeed a difference, even though I kept the general pose and didn't alter the hips)
* palette: Yeah. One day I'll really get the hang of it.

- I actually liked your palette on the clothes!

- I liked the length of the torso, but you could shorten the legs a little.

- I felt the lighting was a bit inconsistant, especially on the jeans.


Overall, I really like this sprite, and it definately gives of an asian vibe!

Very classy, Ghost!

Nice new version Ghost, so much better than the first one!

I also think that Mads edit is great.

[Ghost]

It is- it completely eliminates the "eye problem", for example, and does a great job with the trousers. Amazing how one thing can lead to the others. Again, thanks a lot at all here! GUI sprites are also up and running, and now...

Now to get the game done

but you could shorten the legs a little.

Yeah, shortening the legs would make the proportions even more realistic, but but but GO GO GO for long legs. It would make our deal much much better!

I always stick to my deals  8)

The sprite's set now, I really don't think it needs more refining: It has been greatly improved, and the rest, as anian said correctly, is more or less "personal style".
What I learned once more is how tricky it is to balance "realistic" and "good-looking". Time for a blog entry, maybe.
