I have to say man I have no idea how you churn this stuff out so fast.  Even if I had no job and did nothing but work on resources all day I doubt if I could get it done that fast. :)  Your giant two headed dog monster does need a lot of work though.  Get ready, this is gonna be long:

First off his heads are out of perspective with his body, unless you intend to make him look like his heads are cocked to his right.  Both horns on each head should be visible, unless he only has one horn per head in which case they need to be properly centered on his forehead (actually it'd be really cool if he had one horn on each head emerging from opposite sides, but I digress).

The beard of flame covering his front paws stretches very strangely in that it stays in place on the bottom and holds it form but stretches vertically up and down.  The licks of flame on his back should not move up and down with his body, they should sort of trail after it (try watching this, and not just because it's awesome, but because it's a great way to see how flame reacts to its source being moved in a controlled fashion: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1029494/h ... fire_balls ).

His second tail (counting from the top) is clearly changing in length as it moves.  I would suggest you make each tail move less dramatically and more regularly, the way you have them going now the difference between each frame is too great and that's part of what's causing it to look weird.

The back legs look like chicken legs (which is fine if you want them that way but it appears as if you're going for normal animal legs).  Here's a photo reference of a figurine of a dog in a similar pose: http://www.pf-militarygallery.com/image ... _05_dl.jpg[/img].

The coloring/shading needs a lot of work on detail but I imagine you'll get to that later.  Hope all that helps you out, that thing is going to be badass when it's finished properly. :)

finaly some good advice. tnx. he has only one horn per head i guess i should ticken the outline on the honr to make it more visible and the body movemeny ill do that dog post thingy you posted. when heads go down buttom goes up vice versa. if i cant get the tail ri8 ^_^ ill just haff two tails and dismissed the middle one. the lower tails is good enough for me while the top needs a lil bit of temering and the worst part is the middle tail. but about the shading i kinda like him as it is. coz the background isnt gonna be bright and all ^_^
 
hiya,,, do you only do minkoff. cause where looking for someone to do animated battlers a little bigger then this... but we can only pay $2 per ORIGINAL frame.

I wasn't speaking of the choice of color or general areas of shading, I just mean it needs a lot more refinement and detail, especially if you want to give the impression of fieriness.  At a bare minimum reduce the blotchiness slightly with some licks of flame and variation. :)

The pirate looks great, the swords and pose on Shaifs seem to be a little awkward.  The one in the right hand should probably be going at an angle at about 10 o'clock rather than directly up.  You would expect her knees to bend and her legs to shift back and forth the way you have her animated as well - the lower torso doesn't just expand and contract on its own :)
 
shaifs looks ok to me, the sword handle on top is ok ive seen lots of anime with the same sword style as that. and his legs arent moving at all its like the wind is flowing in her skirt. and only the upper part of the body is moving up and and down which i dont think the lower body needs to move also.
 
ok
as i said the lower part doesnt need to move what she is doing is this

top down left and back ot top again its like dancing. besides she is a female character even male dancer can do that sort of thing and females are more flexible. besides she wont be in that post for long im not using sideview battle system much like finalfantasy. and thats not her ready post.
 
Hey, since this is a white ties battler thread, can anybody give me the link to Alpha Nut's White Ties game download? I can't find it anywhere.

Venetia: No, hon. This is totally off-topic.
 
Umm, i have a problem, i am rather new to rmxp and when i use your battlers, i am using a side view battle system that does support animated battlers. I get a white block behind the character on the map, and a big block containing three phases of the same character during battle..how can i resolve this?
 
I don't have a clue, i got the character on the map to work right by fixing the transperency..but i still have the problem with the battle scenes, i don't know how to fix it and i thought maybe it was the sprites and that he could help..
 
I've been wondering.. Shaifs is first a male, and then a Female? no..sence?, but! what if, Jessie or whatever you call HER, were Shaifs Sister!, and shaifs Died in a battle (some how) and you meet his sister later'on, what'ya think?

lol, sorry just got bored the last couple of min I've been here so I had to come up with SOMETHING.

Yeah...he comes up with the greatest ideas I've ever seen and I just love when he posts here telling everyone what he thinks would be a good idea (Since no one else here is creative enough to come up with ideas by themselves)

Thanks TwistedDragon, I look forward to reading your next idea  :thumb:
 
Well, my ideas are Creative, yah, lol, Didn't know people actually were Looking forward to it O.O

And well, I hate writing -.-, I know I usually write stuff HERE, but thats..Different, if its a job..ITS NO FUN!, I have enough of it on school! -.-.

I'll start sending more ideas on things when dollmage needs/posts here :P
