Animated Battlers? Now with slightly more junk

[Puffy]

I'm particularly fond of the Sailor Moon sprites I edited to make this-- They're really simple edits. No original poses, but at least I know that they animate correctly, unlike another sheet I'm less proud of. It's fun to work with, though. I know that's a really skimpy outfit... ;>_>

Spoiler: Singing!

Still working on how to really diagnose "wiggle" in my animations; I'm constantly discovering and tweaking these because I notice in battle testing they're maligned. =_=

ZOMG, because you asked for it, moaaarrr. Or, me finishing another sheet and posting it in a vain attempt to draw comments. Awww yeah reused sprites.

Spoiler: Poking!

Spoiler: Whomping!

Anyway, I wouldn't recommend anyone using these, but I guess you can ask. I'd really like C&C, though, because I plan on using this style for my game.

I don't like the first one....she looks as if she is dancing.

 

[Puffy]

Well, she kind of is. I was trying to animate singing, but did it fail? Talk to me, I'm not sure.

(I accidentally made the victoly pose look like she was rocking out, so I kept it. ;>_>)

 

[Ynlraey]

Ah I see Sailormoon templates :3
They are pretty good!

 

[JoshC]

I like the first one, the whole dance thing gives it spice.

 

[Puffy]

Thanks, all. It's a really nice template for a low-skill user like me, nostalgia aside. Not too detailed, but lots of variety, and humanlike anatomy (relatively-speaking~).

Spoiler

I did more freeform work with this one, and I've gotta keep facing my old enemy: weapons. Coloring is definitely my weak area; how's my driving?

 

[Nickster]

the sword and her outfit (the white part mostly) are pillow shaded, I think you can fix that and still keep the simplistic style.

 

[Kelevra]

Dumb question coming....

Are those zoom in images, because they look very pixel like (as in can see them).

 

[Sniper]

Would you mind at all if I used your Sailor Mercury Pop Idol as a base for another battler?

 

[Puffy]

@ Nickster: I don't agree much about the sword, if only because it's the same way it was originally colored, but I'll play around with it when I redo the white parts. I use the same sword for 99% of the frames, anyway. :X

@ Hebi Kumo: Well, I don't use the board's zoom feature, but they're 200% the original sprites. They work better with the size of enemy battlers I'm using(Mochiron's megaset), and I find that it's very hard to see the animations at 100%. But I'd like to know whether you think it's jarring.

@ Sniper: You're welcome to, but you're going to want to test the animations before you use them. And you're using them knowing that, as above, you'll have to downscale them by half to get the original size. Just modify it enough that I can't see my character anymore, hee. :3

Also: My current WIP. May undergo major revisions for looking too cabaret.
