Do you need any constructive critique?
That'd be a definite no. ¦D

Like I said, this was only to test something. As long as I'm happy with it, that is all I need. <3

Pay no attention to the man posting the pictures. ¦(

I needed to test something aesthetically for if I had these on display somewhere and this forum has the perfect setup for it.

Pardon me, continue your conversations.
Whoever said bigger is better would be wrong in this instance.

So I learned that Sonic's Dash Attack in this game has some sort of massive windbox.
How do I know this?
Go on Multi-Mii's 10-Man Smash and use it.
And they fly away~

Am I the only one who likes Kaye's sprite art?
Huh. You're the main one I expected not to like it, actually. ¦D

But enough about me. I haven't been here in days. How've things been? Has the porn spammer finally been slain for good?

Never said it was bad! I make pixel art as well and love helping out people with it. The shading is the only part I was gonna really give critique about.

Okay, so I've searched a little bit more about Nichijou and the reason of the inexistance of a season 2 animated.
Well it's pretty simple : the anime costed to much and wasn't a hit in Japan. A season 2 was of course thought, but due to the popularity, they prefered to stop the anime. However, the manga is still going on to this very day and can be find translated on the internet. So yeah, I have to read all of the mangas to actually know the full story. And it goes pretty far.
Well then, let the adventure continue !

Did they ever translated the later volumes of the Nichijou manga? They seemed to have slowed down with that the last time I checked

The whole "teens react to _____" thing sounds depressing. Isn't this the series where a bunch of kids played the Gameboy and said they felt bad for us for growing up on them? :/

the gameboy had a very good library, how insulting

Was that the same video where a kid asked 'Where are all the apps?'

The whole react series is cringeworthy. The teens react just hurts more.

I honestly didn't watch it. I saw the reactions and quotes and decided it'll just make me angry by just watching it.

Did they actually say that? What the heck would you need an app for if you're going to just play games on the Gameboy?

If you're gonna tell me to pick a "light source", I'm not going to do it. Not for something this small. I just want them to look neat. XD

But like I said, I just needed to test something. The whole purpose of these is to just be sorta of an idea blackboard for when I actually draw on paper. That, and I've always loved spriting about 11 or 12 years ago. The original reason I made Kaye's a few years ago is because I used it as a custom sprite for Pokemon Online between me and a friend. That was a MUCH older version of the sprite and his design, though, so it looks significantly better than it used to. I checked that last night. I can't believe I thought that looked good about 4 or 5 years ago. XD

The smallest one I liked. The bigger ones not so much. Hence the previous comment I made.
That's exactly why there are various sizes. The smallest one is the original size. The bigger ones are for the people who often complain about them being too small to see when I try to show them off.

Oh okay. And yeah, I love spriting as well. I've been making them since I was 14, which was 10 and a half years ago.

I dunno, I think I'm just used to you disliking anything I like, if I had to be honest. XD

I'm sorry. Seriously. Twas a close-minded assumption. ¦D;

And thanks a lot. (:

It's ok. It's a joke among many forums that i've joined that I hate everything.

Well actually, the only thing you and I are at opposite ends on is Sonic. We seem to have pretty much the same taste in almost everything else.

Especially girl characters. ¦D

Either way, layout looks nice

@ Naoshi Naoshi

You know what? My curiosity has made me change my mind. I think I just wanna know what's on your mind. (:

What'd you have to say about the shading, Naoshi?

lol the end.
PFFFFFT.

I know it's silly to expect someone to know how to use all of the characters, but it's also dumb to make a "research video" such as this and not utilize them to their maximum potential. This guy doesn't seem to know what Luigi Cyclone is.

Now I'm just annoyed for practically nothing. But man, that's some false information on that vid.

What do you mean? It looks exactly like a Smartphone. Sure there's a whole in the back, has buttons, and looks nothing like a phone. But doll it up and add a few things here and there and you might be able to get away with it.

You mentioned the light source part, but I'd also mention the shading doesn't feel defined enough. By defined I mean, it looks a little too flat and doesn't add much to the details. The best way to know how shading works usually is by studying how shading is done on official sprites, especially bigger ones. It gives you an idea of how and why they're done. Shading is also used to add texture to the sprites too.

(Although I know you don't do this, but as a heads up, avoid overshading or adding too many colors of shades. Usually 2 or 3 colors of shade per color is good enough)

I hope that helps a lot! It's what I usually do, it helps me understand shading and whatnot! But since you've said that sprite is really old, I'm sure you've def improved a lot since then. :D

As far as I can see, the latest translation is from the end of October 2014. They are on volume 9. I want to have them in real life and translated, but I'm pretty sure I can't. Either that or I learn japanese and buy them in the original lauguage. But it would take too much time.

I don't know. The manga utilizes furigana, so you only need to learn hiragana, katakana and basic vocabulary to read the manga, which doesn't require too much effort.
