K. Rool's Kremling Kutthroats: PM BKupa666 for an Invite to the New K. Rool Thread

[BridgesWithTurtles]

I'm sorry to say that it still looks a bit sloppy. The colors are better, but it's...eh.

In all fairness, that particular image is probably difficult to not only crop, but edit as well, as the original is a bit blurry and the shading is kinda hard to work with.

 

[JamesDNaux]

@ Pacack

Still a little choppy, but it looks decent enough when it's smaller. I can try doing the colours differently if this doesn't fit right.

Certainly. I know from experience that it's not easy.

Are you aware that this is saved in .gif form?

Also, let me see if my friend had a cropped version without the white background. That would certainly help.

EDIT: Derp. Double post.

 

[BKupa666]

If that thing had a scalier skin texture, I'd wager that's pretty close to what K. Rool would look like in the actual game.

Huh, didn't know that made a difference. Here it is in png then.

Well that does look a lot better now, whadaya know. Are the colours good enough then?

Pretty good. I'll make an icon and see what it looks like.

I'd take that bet too.

 

[JamesDNaux]

Cleaned it up some more and tweaked the colours a bit, looks better I think.

 

[Pacack]

Well I just finished the K. Rool Icon and I-

Cleaned it up some more and tweaked the colours a bit, looks better I think.

...okay, fine, I'll do another one.

Okay, here it is:

 

[Moon Monkey]

I saw you guys were trying to cut out the picture, so wanted to help out.
I made it the cleanest I could I had to touch up some areas though.

 

[Sehnsucht]

Damn, son. Now that looks nice.

 

[Pacack]

Wow. I'll do it in a bit. Do you think you could lower the green levels? The gold doesn't look red enough to me. It's almost perfect, though.

EDIT: Also, very slight imperfection on the eyes. I think you'll see it if you look.

 

[JamesDNaux]

Mother of god, that's amazing.
I hope you don't mind, I edited the gold a bit because it looked a tad too green, like Pacack said.

Definitely using this on my own roster. You wouldn't happen to be free to do a couple others would you?

 

[Sehnsucht]

By the way, has it been stated where that K Rool picture comes from?

 

[JamesDNaux]

By the way, has it been stated where that K Rool picture comes from?

DeviantArt. Yeah, there are actually a few good artists there.
Now if only I could find some better icons for Palutena, Chrom, Ike, and Lip...

Better, but there's still that annoying little eye imperfection. If it wasn't for that, it'd be flawless.

 

[Sehnsucht]

Better, but there's still that annoying little eye imperfection. If it wasn't for that, it'd be flawless.

Do you perhaps mean the shading on the larger eye? I suppose the texture could be made to be a little more homogenous, if so.

 

[Pacack]

Ask and you shall partially receive:

Have these too:

(New, made by me)

Also mine.

Okay I made some changes if the saturation is off PM I don't want to flood the thread with color tweaks lol.

Spoiler

Also, Boom. Couldn't help myself.

Now if only this was real... I'm almost tempted to post this on Sakurai's twitter page.

 

[JamesDNaux]

You wouldn't happen to have the original images would you? I don't use roster maker, I custom make my own roster. I'd need the large transparent picture of the character. Palutena and Ike don't really have any good render images that I can find.

Also, this is getting off topic, could you reply to me in the character thread?

 

[Pacack]

Never mind, it was my eyes playing tricks on me.

And here are the K. Rool Ikons:

And from @ Moon Monkey 's edit:

Have fun my fellow Kutthroats.

I'd go right ahead and send it to him. There's nothing to lose; if he's in the game, he'll have a good chuckle to himself, and if he's not, he'll realize he f***ed up big time and will start thinking about correcting said f***-up for next game.

 

[Moon Monkey]

Okay, one last one. I gave him a slight scaly texture.

 

[JamesDNaux]

You are a master at this, I would have thought that was legit.

Can you give me the transparent version of the scaly one?

 

[Moon Monkey]

I actually mustered up the balls to do it:

Not the type to pester devs for what I want, but it's still worth a shot to put it out there.
Worth a shot for real.

 

[Pacack]

Could I have the transparent one as well? I'd love to make an icon of that.

 

[Radical Bones]

I hope everyone is hanging in there in this thread. It was a tough week with DKC:TF coming out, and the Direct. It could very well have happened for us all, but no sign of the Kroc yet! Keep your hopes up, I'm sure he's yet to come!

 

[BKupa666]

I've actually been considering writing a brief letter to Retro Studios talking about why we'd like to see the Kremlings in a new game, why they mean more to us than "crocodiles [that don't] need to [come back]." Definitely couldn't hurt to plant the seed early, especially considering a new DKC will be in the cards in a few years from the sound of interviews.

I have a few rough ideas I've mulled around with, but does anyone have any suggestions about what ought to be included in such a letter?

 

[Moon Monkey]

Here you go bro.

@ BKupa666 Just be sure to mention that King K. Rool is the DKC series' Bowser and Ganondorf.

 

[TaichiYaegashi]

Here you go bro.

@ BKupa666 Just be sure to mention that King K. Rool is the DKC series' Bowser and Ganondorf.

You are amazing! I agree with JamesDNaux, that looks legit!

 

[Sehnsucht]

Sweet work, MM.

There we go. That looks great.

@ BKupa666 , do you think we could update the banner at the beginning of the page with this image? I think it'd make everything look more professional.

 

[BKupa666]

@N3ON made the old banner, so perhaps, if we ask nicely, he'll make an updated copy with this new model?

I'll update the DOJO image at the bottom of the page for sure. Tomorrow, I'll also go back and add all of the people who asked to be put on the Kutthroat list as well over the past few pages. Sorry for not doing so earlier, but Kong Kollege is no joke.

 

[Thirdkoopa]

I really like the new image! Great job!

Also honestly, the kremlings were great. Maybe not always the most memorable but

Spoiler

please tell me someoe in here saw the final boss f DKC:TF. Please.

 

[Pacack]

Oky, last time, I promise.

I slightly edited the colors of James' scaly edit and I think this is the best (and final) that I'm going to do:

Voila. I am done.

 

[Radical Bones]

Everyone involved in editing this K. Rool... you guys seriously rock. He looks awesome.

Thank @ Moon Monkey . He's the one that did the majority of it.

 

[JamesDNaux]

Thank @ Moon Monkey . He's the one that did the majority of it.

We should "collaborate" on a few more.

A certain purple space pirate maybe.

Or just Ridley.
I'm actually really wanting a good image of Lip now.

 

[Shorts]

Can someone tell me how heavy handed Miyamoto's opinions were for TF? Like, what's this I hear about him and Cranky? I'm getting catty with local gradeschoolers in the park and I really wanna burn em good.

 

[Manny Toons]

Holy ****, nice job on making that K. Rool render convincing. Almost makes me want him in the game. ...Almost.

Especially with these tuition prices. 2 DK coins just to save? Just the life of a broke kollege student.
