New sprite. Posted in Demon/Monsters sprite thread as well.
A werewolf sprite I did partly as an example for Reaper.
"I may devour the five continents, and swallow the three seas, but a body with neither wings, nor hands, nor feet, is powerless against the sky."
My stuff:
| sprites | frozen |
1) DO NOT PM ME
2) Go read up on anatomy and proportions online. (google is your best friend)
3) Go read up on pencil sketching-shading.
4) Practice by making FULL character sheets. (Refer to bases and references if you have to, occasionally try doing things from scratch. You have to mix both methods; bases and without.)
5) DO NOT be an arrogant, self-righteous prick when people try to give useful critiques, and ignore the ones who are flaming idiots. (Flaming them back makes you one of them.)
6) Repeat steps 2 to 5 until you're happy, or you think you're good, then start sharing your knowledge with your fellow spriters.
7) Showcase your sprites. At first, do not be discouraged when you don't get any critiques, or lousy/generic critiques. Continue practicing and showcasing your work. With more sprites, it will be clearer what your strengths and weaknesses are, and people may be better able to give you better critique.
Lastly, if you think saying all this makes me an arrogant, self-righteous prick who is too selfish to share his knowledge...
Then I say you cannot recognise wisdom when I've just slapped you in the face with it. (Also, those steps are the same steps I used to get to where I am, I don't know any way else to truly learn.)
Unless you think its worth my time, go F*** yourselves. I'm not going to bother to even reply to PMs like "can you help me make this character?" anymore.

Whoa, nice sprite! (As always).
I'm not sure of how you can do to improve the sprite. Maybe by adding a final highlight on the extreme edges? I'm not sure about how that will look on an LF2 character, but you can always give it a try :P
I did this to you for obvious reasons. You have just wasted a lot of time. Congratulations.
Still with the same joke? ;D - Simoneon

Nothing to complain about, seriously. Fur color is a little unusual to me but that goes into the category "artistic freedom". Awesome to see how much detail you can squish into one sprite. Great sense of depth.

Haha, thx. I had the most fun with those 2 demon ones. Coz I made them as a single sprite only, I went all out on them and did it as crazily as i could.
The end result is that I'm sorely tempted to turn them into chars but it'd probably kill me to do that. lool.
I might think of making them temporary summon attacks for a demon master kind of character.... that would be more feasible.

I actually tried a couple of fur colours. I originally did it in a deep shade of Navy blue.
Dark purple turned out to be the most visually interesting. Red/Brown was the most neutral and boring.
Green was just a little too way out for my tastes.

new blank document.
For the human characters I usually have some lf2 sprites put by the side for comparison for height.(But I choose my own proportions, don't really like the lf2 proportions.)
