you sprite for your job ?

LOL I was just gonna ask that.

Yeah. I work at a cell phone game/application company.

The stuff I sprite is meh there though, they have weird style and size preferences. :I
But you can totally see how I get sick of spriting every once in a while.

you probably one of da best there though huh?

It's a small company.


So at the moment I'm the only one there.

So, how do you pronounce that?

Break by 05? Break 5 Degrees?

THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME

Depends.
Originally it was "Break - Degree Fifth", but you could also say Break Fifth Degree, or Break Fifth.
Recently because I'm too lazy to verbally say it out loud, I just say "Break 05 (Break Oh Five)".
So as of now it'd more commonly be the latter.

I'm assuming, due to laziness and other people adapting the style, it'll become pronounced as Break Five, BREAK, or even B05.

Who knows.

I'm actually saying BREAK by itself alot recently, too. Awesome.

Next one.

Somthing about the torso's that bug me.
I don't know what though.

The girls are Amazoness warriors who cut off their one of their own breasts to better fire a bow?

Yeah, that's pretty awkward.

On right? That'd be only the outline.

Not only is there barely any solid anatomical features (noodle arms, sizes in comparison to others and such), no one can stand in such awkward poses (excluding the first one's pose).

For example, Karasu's torso is too long and his legs are too short in comparison, which makes his pose elongated and awkward, along with him leaning a bit too forward for that standing position.


The colours are dull and have too many colours.
Things that small should not exceed 20.
They should be like,
16-.

The sprites all have pillowshading and banding, which is ugly and is a side effect from you have 20+ colours on each one.

And headshots shouldn't just be resized digital art :1

I agree with Proton. They suffer from bad proportions and posture. Not only that, they are hard to read because of the large number of shades compressed.

How'd we say that you have too many shades? The eyes of all your characters so far have gradients. You have a 6-shade color ramp for one of your sprites. Reduce them too 4 if not less.

Alright. I tend to do that with customing, really, too many color choices and most of them being dull. Next weekend I'll go through all of them and redo all the palettes to have fewer colors with better choices.


As for the poses, iunno. Most of them seemed like they're doable but I can see how they're awkward. Again, I can just go through next weekend and redo whatever.
Karasu's anatomy did kinda screw me up a bit, yeah. Imo they got progressively worse from the first one, instead of the other way around.




And with the headshots, okay, I was totally just too damn lazy. I happened to have the large art on my copy-paste and I didn't really feel like doing much more than that.

But you know me, Proton, and my fatass laziness.
