Alectric's later sprites

[Alectric]

I just discovered paint tool Sai. Its frikin epic for drawing and things.
i was messing around in it and thought "hey, why dont i try an LF2 sprite?"
then i was all like "ZOMG, this is so easy and it is so much quicker than photoshop"


The colours are a little bright because im still Getting used to the colour pallate selector thing.

Its a nifty little program, especially if you have a tablet. Its used for drawing, as it doesnt have special effects selection or blending options
check it out yo

Also, one more surprise(not made with SAI)

some concepts

Even thuogh i really like SAI, photoshop is my main program.

[prince_freeza]

its like your spriting got improved into a whole new level in no time, great job man

[chase123]

Gonna try out Sai now,hope it's good,Photoshop still will fulfill all of my spriting needs.

To the sprites:
The first one has good proportions but it does look a little blurry compared to lf2 sprites.
The second ones are really good,though they don't make sense,I guess that is why they are concepts.

Your spriting has improved a lot since your beginning and it will keep on improving.

Yea, I heard about SAI too (It's in Japanese! yeeep!), gotta try it out then
about your SAI sprite, the colours are fine, they suit the LF2 colour schemes. The right hand looks a bit awkward though. Either make it round like normal LF2 sprites or make the non-thumb fingers (>.>) thinner.
Doesn't make sense? PM me.
I love those sprite concepts, they look Japanese IMO (yea, I associate gold and black with Japan, how weird ), though the second sprite's neck is way too long.

Love the right concept sprite, it looks like some kind of chancellor or the like. Possibly a court wizard or so. Please make him to have some awesome magic attacks or hidden weapons in that robe.

Also, that concept LF2/human proportions sprite has a bit too short legs. The distance from the heel to the groin should be almost the same as the distance between groin and top of the skull. I'm well aware that that isn't the case in LF2, but on such a realistic sprite it looks weird.

i have just found some short cuts in sai tool:

ctrl+alt + hold ur mouse and drag it left or right to resize the brush .
alt = color select
ctrl + click and drag or mess around to move object.

PS: mine is sai v.1.10 english. Dunno about other versions.

[Alectric]

yeah, pretty much the same as photoshop.

also pressing [ and ] changes the brush size much easier. (in photoshop too)

[Alectric]

These are random terrible sprites, but i guess this thread needed a little update or whatever. Dont know why i made them either.

F: legs a bit thick. Does not match with the rest of the physique. Love the school girl theme though
M: hair is a bit explosive even by super saiyajin standards. I should say it's a bit imbalanced, you get this fluffy top, then all ends rather abruptly towards the end / back of the neck. Amazing shirt though, totally digging it

[Reaper]

I do like the face picture, but he looks like he is in a bad mood and very tired (which might be the reason for his mood ).
Other than that I aggree to everything what Marshall has said. Great shirt design for the middle sprite. Legs feel a bit short, though (or the shirt too long?).
