Is This How You Sprite?, [Updated: Running Sprite C&C Time]

We'd really have to see what it looks like in the animation to really be able to tell. Though, a blur usually replaces two or more frames, not just one. It could still look good, but we gotta see it in context first.

Understandable. I was going to put it in the context of the animation before I left, but I ended up being almost late for work just to finish that sprite.



Specifically comments on the leg movement would be nice. I'm working on the "flickiness" of the hair right now.

alter the shading on the legs a bit, right now it looks like the same leg is coming forward each time. The actual movement is pretty nice though.

I did.

But I guess I'll have to even more.

it's all about contrast

Sure, you may have edited them a bit, but they're not contrasting enough

A nice trick you can also try is editing each leg so that, even though they should be going to the same spot, make slight edits to make which leg is going out and which one is going back a little bit different.

Like, when the front leg goes in front, maybe make it go a little higher then when the back leg goes out. Right now it looks like they were copied frames, with edited shading to distinguish each leg, which isn't enough sometimes, especially in a fast animation like this one.

Clever, yet simple.

I'll try it, thanks.

I think it's a very neat style that came out well...

I like it, I love the style.
