[BR] BREEZE - Redo of Theif 01

[Xaixis]

"Eeeeek! Xaixis is trying to sprite again! Everyone HIDE!!1!!1!!!one!1!1"

Haha yes, I have decided to try at another sprite, now please know that this is my second sprite ever. And it doesn't take a special eye to realize that I am not very good at spiriting... but I'm trying.

Spoiler: Just show me the Sprite!

What I'm redoing into breeze format

I can't seem to get his "vest" right

Another Update

I hope that I haven't blinded your eyes... to much hehe. Please feel welcome to comment and criticize to your hearts content!

Well, I wouldn't say you're terrible. You should probably blend out the colors in the vest out better. It seems too confused. Doesn't look shaded too well.

 

[Xaixis]

Hmm... I'm trying, but then again there is only so many pixels for blending. Should I use lighter colors for them  to stand out?

Anyways, on the RTP the vest is smallish and barely reaches the waist.
I tried to keep the same ratio but it seems bigger when using the same distances with arms and waist-line =/

I will try to work on it. I am just trying to get some new sprites out there since it seems that the Breeze Revolution has died down =(

Well, since you're already skewing the original proportions of the sprite, I'm sure you could take some liberties with the vest for aesthetic purposes.

But besides that, I don't like the Breeze template and so don't have much of an opinion besides a general, generic "bleh" towards pretty much all of them. HOWEVER, from my outsider's eye, I'd say the pants need more contrast - it looks pretty dull and bland, those colors. The hair looks really nice. There's something off about it but I can't put my finger on it, so we'll leave it at really nice. Maybe you're trying to put too much detail into the torso area - I don't think you have enough room to recreate the full feel of the original character.

Though, it's always nice to see people trying to recreate the RTPs. Good luck!

Hmm... yes I see what your going at. When I'm spriting RTPs, I have both of them zoomed up to 1600% so I guess I have a tendency to do that. Thanks for the catch!

And also thanks for going against your own views on the templete to complement what I have done, haha. I appreciate it!

Me too, me too.

Ok, so any tips then?

Finally got back to this sprite. I kinda forgot about it, getting on the side-views currently.
