Aeriath Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Alrighty, I decided I'd give myself a go at pixelling, and here is the line work and basic colours. It's a WIP, as I haven't shaded yet, but I'd like some CC before I shade. Here it is: All CC welcome. EDIT:: I had to change it to a GIF (had been working on Bitmap) so the coliur is a bit whacked.

Lancelot586 Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Just a few things wrong with this picture. I noticed that the zammy guy has a cape but its not very noticable because its brown like the ground. Try giving him a sara cape from the mage arena, that should be noticable. Also the zammy guy has a hood over his head as i noticed but why is his face gray? I like the idea of red eyes though. Also with the zammy guy his abyssal whip is twirled around the other guys dragon long but I suggest you make it look like its wrapped around the sword several times. You tryed to but it didnt exactly work. (making the whip dark purple and dark red stripes would help it because then the black outlining would make it more clear.) Also the rune gold guys cape is very undemensional When something is in the air like that make sure you show part of the other side too. The rune gold guy is also a bit short on facial expression... MAKE HIM FREAKED OUT LIKE HE KNOWS HES ABOUT TO DIE!!!!! lol he kinda of looks like he's smiling. thats just my oppion though. Im looking forward to seeing your work when its finished :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 15, 2005 Author Share Posted June 15, 2005 Thanks for the CC. Please replace "sara guy" with "zammy guy" lol. The gold guy is actually the sara guy. The grey face is shadow, I'm gonna fix that when sahding but will take into account of making the head darker than the shadows. I'm not very happy with the cape, so I'm gonna fix that too, and also the guys face. Thanks again for the CC. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAGE Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Dude get the proper bmp on paint and save it as png so you don't lose colour then you can post it here again with better quality. With shading I see alot of potential with this sig. CC: Background, it is too plain. Make something going on or decorate it because it is making the sig look quite boring. The people aren't too bad but the facial expressions are annoying and the zammy guys face needs to be redone. Plus the legs are a bit skinny for the body, try making the left leg (from viewer perspective) a bit bigger since its a bit skinnier than the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 16, 2005 Author Share Posted June 16, 2005 Well, I done some modifications to it based on the CC, and here it is! More CC needed before I shade it. EDIT:: I'll do something with the background soon. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelot586 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Ya try to get about 1 more page of cc before shading it. Anyways sorry i wrote sara instead of Zammy lol i just want sara REALLY badly so ive lost my mind. Anways I love what you did to the cape! everything you changed made it look 10 times better. But now that I look at it for the second time i see a few more things wrong with it. Like monky said you need to work on the zammy guys face a bit more. instead of making his face gray you should make it only a really dark tan under his hood but have his chin be a normal tone. (so that it looks like the Hood is shading SOME of his face) Also the zammy guys cape is a bit flat now that i can see it a little better. I also think you should make the gloves and boots come over the armour instead of in them. Ok thats all I noticed with the zammy guy now about the sara gold trimmed guy... His Hair is a bit odd but if thats the way you want it to look thats fine. I would just think it would be cooloer if it was wacky lol :). and the bg needs a lil bit of work but I think you should work on that once you start shading. O ya i forgot to say the abbysal whip looks great! i can see its wrapped around the sword several times now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Alex85 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Is the Zamorak dude wearing underpants over his armour? The darker part where his legs come out look like that... But that's my opinion. It really has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelot586 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 lol ur right it does look like underpants but actually thats part of the pl8 mail. At least i think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage_Merc Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 it's not that good but no1's first ever is... anyhow I didnt do much, i didnt even pixel it i used brush's because i was in hurry... but if you use DARK solid color's it will look better, or brighter light color's... Contrast can be important. You need to learn to shade as well, i shaded it with the gradient tool but you should go in and shade it yourself (best way) Anyhow it looks a little better if you notice... it's the colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 Thanks again for the CC guys. @Carnage - I haven't done the shading,. I was looking for a bit more CC. Your example looks quite good for a quick job. @Sir_Alex - Now that you've said it, it does look like that doesn;t it? Lol. Hmm, have you any suggestions as to what to do with it? @Lacelot - Wow, thats quite good CC! I'll take into account what you said, and thanks for the abby whip comment. Curse you Nomad!

Lancelot586 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Hey you know what would be cool? If you make the zammy guys magic glow (using animation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 I wasn;t gonna do animation, but what the heck? Anyway, got any ideas about the underpants? EDIT:: Here is a fixed sig, with the same underpants as I had no ideas. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelot586 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 lol well not at the momment. Of course you could just get rid of it but it wouldnt look that nice. Have you considered just making the underpants looking part more of the pl8? I dont know if that would look cool but give it a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 Hmm, I actually have an idea how to cover it up, just a sec! EDIT:: CC? Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelot586 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 lol clever idea to hidng it but.. looks too much like a toga in my oppion. good idea but how about instead of that put a robe over part of the pl8 and the legs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Alex85 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 ;P It looks cool with that. Nice. It really has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 18, 2005 Author Share Posted June 18, 2005 Hmm, I think I'll keep the lioncloth for just now, and see about robes later. Any more suggestions before I shade? EDIT::Worked a bit on the BG. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quer_Skulll Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 so what kind of color scheme are you having there..? its all bright and i cant see allot of thought being put into the color scheme? try to set a color scheme, examples: Cave, Night, Ambient, Daylight, Forest, Earth.. your colors are to random for my liking.

Godslayer Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Pmg, what Quer said *doesnt really give a dam*, look at the loincloth! 10/10! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 18, 2005 Author Share Posted June 18, 2005 try to set a color scheme, examples: Cave, Night, Ambient, Daylight, Forest, Earth.. your colors are to random for my liking. May I ask what you use for making your own sigs (which rock btw)? Also, it does seem a bit random, but I have been adding to the sig haphazardly. I think I'll fix the colours before I begin to shade. And thanks Godslayer, lol. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 19, 2005 Author Share Posted June 19, 2005 Soory about double posting, but I added some stuff the the lava. Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingcomet32 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 the whole bg is out of perspective your seeing the people from a angle little higher than head hieght, but the ground/lava look like they're walls, because they're being seen from a skyward view, and the stalagmite is in the right perspective sept it looks weird, i think its supposed to get thinner towards the bottom i hope u dont mind but i edited it to sorta show wut i was sayin bettter? cuz im not good wit explainin: sorta like that, once u shade it should look normal because it looks a lil off right now thanks to Etexbleu for the sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeriath Posted June 19, 2005 Author Share Posted June 19, 2005 Hmm I see what you mean, but I was going for a lake of lava rather than a flow, any tips on fixed perspective lakes? Curse you Nomad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
