[released][char]: Reaper.

[Reaper]

updated: basic sprites nearly done( 1 frame + burning/freezed + maybe rowing + sometimes adding scythe + sometimes a bit shading left)
so sheet 2 now (nearly) completed:
and my second idea for the chase attack:

what do you think? especialy of the attack and the one's I posted in my last post? Because now I start working on the attacks.
Could take some time. I'm quite often in the forum mod subforum to bring in my ideas and that takes some time.

Nice.

Good work, and wow!- You almost finished it!

Just one thing bugging me - why his weapon suddenly dissapearing... Maybe You need to try fix that (Idk just my opinion)

[Reaper]

yes, sometimes I have to add the scythe( like second row.)
but in other frames he has no scythe because I decided that he looses it when falling frames begin and gets it back when he stands up. And he doesn't use it in catching frames, because he has to punch. Maybe i forgot some frames where he also has to use it, but I'll see when I'm nearly ready and test it.

[Simoneon]

But where it dissapearing? You should make scythe beyond the reaper, when he do that attacks

Still, good look

[Reaper]

I first wanted to do it like you said, but then i looked at deep. His sword also disappeares sometimes.
Anyway, whats with the attack sprites? Its nearly the first time I tried it and i haven't used photofiltre etc. yet. There has to be something to improve.

The lost soul or what it is looks quite good.. better then the other version, especially 'coz you sprited it yourself. All sheets nearly finished.. awesome
Have you got all ideas for your attacks? How will they be like?

face looks good.. except of the scythe.. looks way to blury! Not the blade but the wooden stick. And the eyes should be hidden by the hood.

[chase123]

looks good but in some frames there is no weapon the face looks good i like where this char is going.

[Reaper]

guess its time to post some new sprites. especially as I have a few questions.
In the last day I did the balls etc. I need for the special attack and here they are:

In my opinion this is quite ok, but my question: I did it only in paint. Is there a possibility to improve it with photofiltre/gimp?

I'm not fully satisfied with that. I think I'll improve it, but I don't know how yet.
And know the main thing why I post: I did the lost soul:

But then I tried to change it a bit in photofiltre and this is what came out:

So now my question: Which one is the best? I personally don't really like so much blur( its also not LF2-styled), but it looks quite cool. Just too much like another reaper.
Just to make sure you've noticed: In the last sheet there are three different types of souls
So what do you think? I don't want to hear "I like these sprites.." I want to hear critics.

[Lauli]

The only thing I really like is this:



But the rest, doesn't really look how "souls" look like.
There should be ways more glowing, and the fact, that you used paint-spray makes it even worse.
And I have no idea what the second thing should be.

[Reaper]

well
1. thank you for answering
2. only the last two spritesheets should be souls. And you showed my three different types of them . I asked which of them you think is the best. I like the only one you didn't like most, because it isn't blured. Jans healangel also isn't blured....
3. yes, I said I only used paint, because I don't know how to make it good with photofiltre. Thats why I'm writing in here. Its my first try on attacks. I never did one before except of the phoenix angel adam uses.
4. The second think is a curse. He graps the enemy( first line) and afterwards the enemy is cursed.( while he is, the sprites from the second line appeare) I'm not exactly sure what will happen then( maybe slowing down etc.) because I don't know whats possible with dcing.

Edit: I don't have much time today, so it looks awful, but what's about the heart? should I do the smoke with the spray tool in photofiltre? or no smoke, just changing colours( Thats a bit boring I think)?

Note: the hearts would be used after each other.
done in a few minutes, would look better if I had more time today.
