remixor, can you understand that times have changed?

cause if you can't see that isn't 1997 anymore than we can't talk about this

i think the best answer to the what are they doing question is...

whatever they want, it's their company, it's their game and they can do whatever they want to do

no company sets out to make a shitty game so they are trying their damndest to make FT2 the best game they can in today's market place. now we've all been around for a few years and we know what today's markey place is like, so why is everyone so surprised?

you can't expect a company to never change especially in light of new technology, game playing ideas, trends and all that

also remember that we will be around on this earth for many years and who knows what new games will come out later. maybe adventures will come back in 10 years or whatever... maybe there will be new and better character's and games that we'll become attached too and make fan games off of

this is just full throttle, i bet tim schaffer or whoever isn't all that upset about the game [just maybe that he can't work on it and make a paycheck] he designed it many years ago and many years and projects have come and go, he's working on psychonauts anyway, his own game that he gets to design all over again

if you create something for a company you know that it is for that company and that they own it and they can do what they please with it. he's moved on i'm sure, along with many other people who made adventure games in the past

i think an example of a way to go would be taken from the longest journey

she kept a journal and she added her thoughts to it and she slowly [kinda] grew up as she went through her journey that was quite long

in the beginning she was using Like and Totally alot and then she kinda backed off of that

i think they didn't do it as much as i'd like but anyway that's not the point

i'm not throwing my avatar into the race, cause she's too good for mere competitions...

but roberteric's dog always looks like it's wearing a hat to me

oh my god, that site is so silly

they list like 3 errors that are clearly parts of the game and they list tons of retarded story problems, like stan getting punched... it's a freaken game and a cartoon...

i guess when you devote an entire site to a series of games that have been out for a while you find any reason to post new news

which leads me to wonder why we need so many maniac mansion/dott and grim fandango and sam and max websites... one will suffice for each

sorry to continue the off topicness

satanism acknowledges man as an animal and doesn't punish man for acting on his natural urges

they kill no babies, drink no blood and worship no gods
#3870
and satanism has nothing to do with sacrifices either...

i think you just need to clean up those edges

there are many strayed pixels, unless you want it like that

and also pick a light source and stick with it, there are lots of conflicting shadows on those people

also use more contrasty colours, you can barely see their facial features and the lines in their pants are almost non existant

and it's 5 am i have to sleep

well of course being an eric i had to play eric the unready, it was hilarious and cute though i didn't like how there was a turn limit

the problem with that GUI is that it took up quite a large part of the screen, try downloading one of the legend games from The Underdogs or just peeping a screenshot

i don't know why but for some reason i want to see the clouds bow the other way... i have no clue why tho

and i think the lower left side of the image is too bland. it's just dead to me and that's where the painting turns into a 2d image made out of colour and not a believable scene.

at to me the mountain looks rather small, i think that's because we have a severe jump from foreground to background with nothing inbetween, so i see the large blades of grass right next to the mountain and it kinda shrinks the mountain's size for me, unless it's just a large rock, then i'd like to see it casting more of a shadow

i'd also like 50 dollars and a rocket car

i'm glad to see at least one of us is improving their painting skills

look at the picture of the women and then look at the sprite you made, can you see any differences you want to change? that's the best advice i can give you without walking you through step by step as you draw the sprite

do the arms look different to you? do you care if they don't look natural? it's all up to you and what you're willing to put into the image i'm not going to break your sprite down any more when the best information has already been said and is contained in the images i posted...

and i don't want to get into a debate about breast size... but you do know that the average breast size isn't double L right? that it varies from region to region and is usually C... so yes, those breasts are larger than average

ok don't click this unless you want to see a naked femal model http://fineart.sk/photo77.jpg

see her breasts? those are pretty large in comparison to the average sized breast, see her from the front, you can barely see them

but that's real life, not cartoon

what you're doing is cartoon so no one can really tell you that you are wrong if that is the style you are going for, but since you asked for a crit here it is

a breast from the side sags, all breasts that have mass sag and you don't have to be 80 to have a sagging breast see http://fineart.sk/photo76.jpg it just depends on the firmness of the breast http://fineart.sk/posture48.jpg

this is just the human body

this woman also has breasts like what i think you are trying to achieve http://fineart.sk/posture52.jpg  her too http://fineart.sk/posture50.jpg

you're character is probably wearing a bra, but no bra would really hoist the breasts up that high and hold them there, unless that's the cartoon look you want, but everyone will think fake plastic breasts

also notice the arms and legs, they go straight down and stop at just above mid thigh

the legs you have drawn come together right at the bottom of the skirt, try seperating the thighs a little so it looks like the legs go up under the skirt and continue to the pelvis

also in his side view he has no butt and i'd recommend making the outline colour a little darker so that it shows better agaist his skin
#3880
hehe thanks a lot

and to get thin lines just use the one pixel pencil tool and that's as thin as you're going to get
