I no longer do art things but might eventually post not-crusade sprites [Det's Art Topic]

probably done with quote for a while now

Fits the Cave Story Style, but the sprites still look really weird.

Especially Curly.

how do i anat omy



did this one backwards, edited stuff into a base sprite then drew it myself

the sprite looks better than the lineart

that's because i'm garbage at lineart

Yeah I decided since I haven't been able to find a style I like after drawing for like 5 years that I'm mostly going to give up on it.
I never particularly thought stuff that I drew came out very well. Whenever I look back at stuff I drew years ago, I think it looks really meh and figure I can do better and realize after messing around for two hours that I really can't.
I still do spriting stuff though, which for some reason I am significantly better at despite being a hundred times more limited in precision.
Maybe one day I'll figure out a style I like that I think looks good but for now I'm gonna stick to sprites and junk like that. Iunno.

Completely unrelated, turtles may or may not be my favorite animal now.

-end of totally not a tumblr repost-

I probably won't post entire spritesheets around here because I know how easy it is to grab them right off dA and not bother to give credit (I have seen a lot of spriters working with me do this and since I mostly do everything custom it really ticks me off), but every once in a while I might post an animation or something just to show I'm still alive and making things.

Giving up on art will probably end up being a challenge for me though because I keep thinking of things I could make that I would have to draw but then I remember that I probably couldn't draw it anyways and then I try and fail and yeah it's a dumb cycle.

I really dunno.

someone help me tweak this

calling giga some spriters


left (and bigger version) are my sprite, center is ashley for size reference, far right is a sprite of lip from some sheet somewhere which i used for colors and general body reference sort of

need help with
-palette
-face
-bangs of hair
-body in general i guess

tl;dr i can't custom worth crap

Here is a more detailed reference if it helps

lol calling giga

after school ill see if I can tweak this a bit for you (unless someone else does it first)

but Nights isn't getting a free DLC, so don't even try it.

Two quick observations:

Shading on the hair makes it seem like it’s plastic or something, definitely try to tweak it a bit.

Body is pretty square, possibly make it more curvy or something?

2 am makes me want to draw sometimes

I am a hairless otter and I must eat CHICKEN

I feel like the motion blur is a bit off.

well that was a fun little break

some stuff i've been doing while at school the last couple days



totoro and no-face
far left is rikka takanashi from Chu2Koi; she's just there for a size comparison since i want to use that general size and style once i get to the human characters like princess mononoke. i made her at some point last week.

nvm giga

100% custom woohoo

aw man i really was gonna do it ;~;

i just wanted to get it done last night lol

and now i have a higher chance of being able to say the entire thing was entirely my work (save for critique)

yeahhhhhh porco rosso and calcifer

may or may not do one more before getting down to business with the minister

shouldn't the umbrella rabbit and sprited away thing have mugshots that are different from their sprites since the rest do
