JP & Cosmo II - some characters

[Damien]

Nice work Darth, I'm glad to see you're using 'planometric' perspective again.

Just one suggestion: skew shrink the floor texture more in the 2nd pic, where Cosmo and Admiral Hoenes are standing.

I'm looking forward to the game.

[Indie Boy]

Very nice! (is there a echo here?)
I really like the planet earth and the rivets but the octogon on the doors look a bit funny at the right side

[Penguinx]

Excellent as always. Don't let adding highlights kill your style. They look fine either way.

[Darth Mandarb]

It's the penguin!!!

Good to see you post again and thanks for the kind words.

PS
I'll be posting more soon ...

[Blackthorne]

Mandarb,

Ã,  Your sprites suck.Ã,  Your game sucks.Ã,  I'm not looking forward to this at all.Ã,  In fact, when it comes out, I'm going to burn it to a CD just so I can flush it down a toilet.Ã,  I'm going to print out screenshots just so I can burn them.Ã,  It's all so horrible..........ah....... the horror!Ã,  AH.Ã,  The horror.

Bt

PS - I'm completely kidding around here.Ã,  Top Notch work, as always, and I can't wait for the finished product.Ã,  You're just so damn talented!!Ã,  You should make a game and sell it, because people should give you money for what you do.Ã,  Okay.Ã,  Now maybe I'm overly kissing ass.Ã,  This is a post of extremes, eh?Ã,  Nice job.Ã,  NOW, I'm interested to see what your 'secret' project is.... heh heh heh!

This is getting better and better. Characters look fab on those backgrounds! Loominous's suggestion for higlights really nailed it too, so no critics from me. Keep it up.

[InCreator]

Dark.
It's all soo-oo darth dark.

Yes, pretty.
Yes, attractive.
Yes, near-perfect.

But too dark.

[Haddas]

I can't help but Hear the MGS music in my head watching those

Hey Darth, that's excellent character art, as usual.

I loved the Adventures of JP and Cosmo and I'm looking forward to another game of yours.

I have one small comment to make, it's with regard to the last guy on the right (the bossy-looking blue one in green): To me, his body looks a tiny bit "square". I would take the centre part of his waist down, and push the sides of his body a little bit in (or out). His facial expression is also a bit... sad?

It looks great anyway. Just a thought.Ã,  Ã, 

[Iwan]

Cool backgrounds! Couldnt find much to coment on. Just one thing I want to be a pain in the arse about. The bed looks a bit too square, it might be the style but I had a shot making it les 'boxed'.

I just adjusted a few pixels here and there...



Cant wait for the game!

I'm glad to see a more natural skin colour this time. The characters from your first game were good, but it looked they were all very ill due to their yellow-ish faces

[Snarky]

The only thing I won't change is their slightly over-sized heads.Ã,  I like the style and want to stick with it.Ã,  It's kind of my thing

Does that mean that the ginormous eyebrows (which is the thing I always assumed was "your thing") are negotiable?

[George]

Wow, I just had a look at these, professional quality!
I can see much work and thought has gone into them, and I can't wait to see them in the full game!

No Crit… just paying homage. 

-George

[Darth Mandarb]

Wow - tons of replies!Ã,  Thanks for all the kind words!

InCreator - this was something I was definately worried about.Ã,  The over-all darkness of the images.Ã,  I will be correcting this.

Aussie - thanks for the tip.Ã,  That guy is the newest and least refined of the characters so I'm sure he'll be altered before making his appearance 'in-game'.

Gamma - It's funny you should mention that because I felt the same way and went in and made them less square.Ã,  They were even worse before!Ã,  I kind of want to give the impression that this is a very sterile and clean environment.Ã,  So I don't know if I'll change it more ... but thanks for the advice!

Erwin_Br - you can thank Mr. Farlander for the more natural skin tone.Ã,  He finally showed me the error of my skin color ways!Ã,  But you're definately right ... side by side with my old characters these definitely look better.

Snarky - Interesting ... I'll play around with shrinking the eye-brows a bit!

[Nacho]

Mr. Farlander just pointed that the LucasArts palletes for the skins are more pink. The credit for the improving is for Mr. Mandarb. 

[Nine Toes]

Lookin' good, Darth.  I like the new sprites, especially.

[Ubel]

Darth, why are you doing this? WHY ARE YOU DRAWING BETTER SPRITES THAN ME!!? I HATE YOU!!!

Nah... not really. I like these! Keep it up!Ã,
