Hey all,

I've just finished my first background, and I'm quite happy with it as it is, however, I need advice on how to improve the water graphics and the police car, I've tried to get a Police Quest 2 style background, but it just doesnt feel quite like it yet, I know a lot of you here are pretty good at this so all help is welcome.

and the man in the water seems a bit too AGI style though, any ideas on how to make this into a more PQ2ish look? Are there any Photoshop tricks for this?

Hello people

I decided to try and make a adventure game based on the Police Quest series, but I'm having trouble with making a decent character, I was actually aiming for a SCI style character like in Police Quest 3, but a Police Quest 2 would do nicely too, however, I happen to totally suck at this, All day long today I've tried to make a police officer character, but every try just didnt come out right. in fact, here's a picture of what my best looking example was..(And that really says something about my lack of skills)

I've also tried to make an animation of a police officer telling a suspect to drop his gun while keeping his hand on the holster and eventually drawing his gun and firing it, and even though I like this animation, you can obviously tell its lacking on the art skill.

I'm talking about this one..

EDIT: I resized the images so they all had the same size, but this results in a rather weird effect as you can see, (the officer getting fatter)

Anyways,Ã,  I could really use some advice from you folks, since I'm at a dead trail when it comes to character editing.

I also tried looking at the website listed in the tutorial section about how to make good backgrounds and sprites and such, but this site seems to be down at the moment? --> http://user.tninet.se/~vqb114l/ilb/tutorials.htm

Thanks in advance! Let the critisism commence!Ã,  

Hello all!

my first post and already a thread.

Anyways, I was wondering.. me being a very big fan of police games like Police Quest 1,2,3 and Blue Force, I would like to know if there are any talented game makers out there who are planning on making a police quest style game? I know that there are a few games like Larry Vales and the McReed game in which you star as a police officer, but they are basically humorous games, and I am looking for real police-procedure style adventure games. a game which involves arrests, shootouts (maybe) traffic accidents and such. Hope I was understandable enough.

Thanks for answering in advance.
