Same girl again... :P
Maybe I'll actually sprite someone else soon.
"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.

The color scheme is a bit bland but so strong to my taste. I love every single detail u put on this sprite. The cast shadow on he skirt , the fingers , the belt etc. But , i think u have given her hand more tension. So that it looks like she is pulling her skirt up to facilitate walking. Otherwise a really fantastic sprite.

Bump with my recent revamps. It looks like some time away from spriting has caused my style to change again.

Except for more contrast and saturation (which can be quickly tweaked anyway) I don't see any significant change.

Ah, but its the subtle differences that make a difference. Although, if the change isn't visible, I wonder if its any good at all.
I feel like between Frozen and Eira to the recent 3 revamps, my sense of colour has improved a little.

Well to me hue/contrast/saturation have to be adjusted for the surrounding anyway.
Single sprites don't have that - it's trivial without a reference system.
Just like your monitor probably isn't colour calibrated.

Wheee... 1.5hours I think?
Stupid sword gave me some trouble and I'm still not quite satisfied with it. Other than that... had fun spriting her. She's a freaking awesome character from this season's anime; Kill la Kill.
