[PPP]Fox5's Workshop

[PPP]

Fox, template needs more muscle definition. You can do this both by tweaking the shape of the limbs a little and with shading, which you need more of anyway. Go look at some anatomy drawings; they're quite helpful! Also, it's kind of pillow-shaded right now, so you might want to look into that. And the face is chubby, and the eyes are too low for realism; they should be halfway down the head in a full frontal view (which this looks like), whereas you have them 2/3. Which is fine if you're going for an anime style, but it makes your face kind of cramped, and it's also chubby. Add some more darks under where the cheekbones should be and around the nose to make him look like less of a babyface. Hope that helps!
 
Thanks for the tips, Perihelion. This is my first ever template (definatly not first sprite), so I'm sorry if it's not that good. Anyway, i've edited it, finished it and also have a female first version:

V 0.2:



There's definatly something wrong with the chest, but can't place it. And here's a really badly shaded example of the template in use (sorry it's rushed):

 
i think that if youll make the male's chest bigger it'll look better try playing with it and see how it looks with different widths [after all it's a male...]
keep it up ^_^
 
Female sprites chest looks a little odd where it comes out around the breasts (also they kinda point towards each other)...try bringing it in there and see what happens

Agree with lomastul I think playing with the width on the male chest will probably lead you towards good results...

EDIT: wanted to add - men do curve in at the waist - obviously not as much as females but if you take a bit away around the midriff the chest shape will become a bit more pronounced :)

nice work
 
The face makes him look odd. Trying nudging the mouth down a little bit. Also the arms are too close in trying moving them out a bit, that's why the chest looks odd.

Otherwise not too bad.
