YellowMellow (or YM Temp) -wip-

[freakofnature]

Another try at a template, it's about the same size as the rtp (1 or 2 pixels taller i think), ..never intended to make it the same size but i'm glad it turned out that way (actually it's about same size but chubbier), anyway.. i was going to try to finish it by my lonesome but i don't feel comfortable enough yet because i know there may be some probs i don't see, the main reason i made this topic was because of the frontal view of the feet, i'm not sure about them and i'd like to hear what you folks think.

Note: I liked the look of these things and decided to use 'em.
.I really liked the outline color for the older kaizer templates so i did something similar.
.I also liked the the lighting on the mack rtp template forehead so i used it as well, but i may add a similar scalp marker as i did with the alternate man template.
.And the eyes have the same look as the rtp characters, i though these kind of eyes would look best, but i will try for diff types later on.

Ha lol i love it, reminds me of Half Kaizer with a hint of rtp.

Nice going, can't wait to see it complete :D

Edit: Lol i just realised you pointed out the ideas from other templates you used XD

I think the forehead sticks out a bit too much in the side view. And his shoulders could be dropped a few pixels in the back view. Maybe make the legs one pixel wider in the front and back views.(at least the thighs)

Other than that, it looks pretty good.

Think Tana is right... But I love it... I think that will be the best Chartemp when its ready and there are more templates like childs, females, poses etc... I will use it in my next game...

 

[brainstorm]

I love this template. ^_^ But Tana is right. The Forehead is huge. Looks like He's looking down

Very good work, a little RTPish but I prefer this one.

My try:

The shirt says YM (yello mellow) lol.

 

[freakofnature]

Thanks guys , I think i finally have a winner here, and i want to have it look as good as possible too, anyway, tana thanks for the tips much appreciated, i've tried to fix these things you pointed out, let me know what you folks think.

For the frontal and back view i've tried to do something with the hip area, i've added a lighter shade to the outline since the arms are somewhat over them, the extra hip pixel would be shown on the walking frames, let me know if this could be better done, also let me know about the shoulders on the back view.

If i'm happy with the temp in the end then no doubt i will make a female and child, otherwise it would seem incomplete to me

<3 I have a new favorite template! Finish it now, or the universe will implode. It's that great. I love the linework. Keep it up!

 

[freakofnature]

Lol thanks, i'm now working on the frontal animation and it's looking okay so far, i will upload soon, ah i remembered now.. i have to see about the shoulders on the back view, because i'm not feeling great about them right now.. i will work on these before i keep moving.

 

[Swordhunter]

WoW! I like it! I love the side-view but the front and back looking to.. SIMPLE!

 

[~Atlaswing~]

It looks like the guy has HYDROCEPHALUS. Try to reduce the bump on the top of the heads. Although i loved the sideview stance and the large forehead, cute and nice.

Yeah, make the legs farther apart coz in the sideview the legs are obviously apart but in the front view, they arent.

 

[freakofnature]

Been adding some more shading to the frontal and back but not too much , and i have remedied the leg prob, i just moved the hind leg one pixel down, thanks for the heads up.

Edit: the bump on top of the head, do you mean tone down the lighting?

 

[crazymew]

looks great! keep up the good work!

My try at a sprite at this template. You like?

 

[freakofnature]

A nice first try as well , i like the look of the outfit too, i wish i could give you some good criticism but i stink at it :/, keep working on it man, and looking at this character made me see something i may have screwed up on, i will check this out now.
Edit: Nothing wrong.
Crazymew: thanks
Kiniko: I can't give you any good criticism, others can do it better than i, so i made a quick example using the character you created hope you don't mind.. well i just re-created some of the clothing actually, the thing to remember when using any of these templates is perspective, the shoulder pads on your character for example need to be rounder, also the belt drops below the crotch area, it's always a good idea to follow the waist line on any temp.

I have also marked the stomach outline on the picture, sorry about the lousy coloring/shading on this.

Note: My brother spilled milk all over the mouse a while ago, so i'm kinda screwed right now, i was able to post with the help of the tab button, soon as i get a new mouse i'll post what i have to see what you guys think of it, i have the frontal animation complete and i had started on the second frame for the side view.

EDIT: I should be getting myself a mouse this thursday, would have been sooner but i'm broke, till then friends.

EDIT: I have begun working on my template again, i will upload something for criticism soon, and should this topic die before then i will just revive it, till then folks.

 

[freakofnature]

Hello again folks, working on the temp again and here's what i've got so far, let me know what you think of it, and let me know what you think of the back frame as well, i think it looks okay but i want to know what others think before i move on.

More little tweeks will be made to everything but if you see anything let me know anyway.

[brainstorm]

I don't like the front view for some reason. Maybe he looks a little stiff.

 

[Kiniko]

Yay! More! That looks great Mr. ofnature. Keep it up =D

 

[freakofnature]

Sasuke89: Hmm seems fine to me, maybe i'll add a stomach line or something.
Kiniko: Thanks, i will work on the back view today.

Edit: Haven't started on the second and fourth frame for the back yet but i will later on today, should be complete tonight or sometime tomorrow if nothing comes up, anyway i created some diff looking eyes for the temp, i may make some more.

Well two are different, the third is just a mean look with eyebrows.
Edit: Eyes reposted, keep moving down

 

[Siege]

Haha, nice. The middle one looks like its stoned.
