Cutstuff Message Board

because alliteration is fun and makes you look clever

this is a thread where I put my spritewerk and such
you know, since all the other cool guys have threads
llama and kapus motivated me to take pride in my work

I can make sprites somewhat quickly, it takes on average about 45 minutes to an hour for a "beta frame"
from the beta frames I can do "mods" like appendage movement or recolours in like 10 minutes

the biggest problem I have is inspiration, if I don't want to do it then good luck forcing me to
sometimes I get motivation from the weirdest stuff so you might find updates out of nowhere
also sometimes I might do things not related to me and done for my friends instead

I just want to say that the Propeller Met reminds me of a Super Mushroom.

... Oh. That he does.

I never noticed that before.

I know why spriting novices make simple little sprite edits.

It's because they're SO GOSH DARN FUN TO DO.

New enemy type added, the Comett!

I also made the Finder's Ghost bigger so you can see it better.

Ow the pun

Your animating skills (the propeller met and the comett) look rather clean as well.

I actually have a little practice in motion frames due to preparation for Smash and Nido

though since you guys like my sprites better than my doodles maybe I'll just make a sprite comic instead

the next enemy isn't another Met and technically he's finished, it's just that his animation is a pain in the ass

I can see that thing fall from the sky diagonally and then acting as a normal met
Good work!

Cometts fall faster than any other enemy, using this to their advantage by attempting to ram players. Unfortunately that's the ONLY thing they're good at, as they can't shoot and will only move downward. Still, you don't want to touch them due to the increased collision damage they can dish out.

New enemy type is up as well. Rotations are a bitch.

whoops DOUBLE POST

I had some time left after the Physics test so I did more spritewerk. This is getting too addicting for my own good. Anyway, I tried doing the Blue Ghost (the one with the tuft of hair on the head), but he just doesn't look right. I can't get that blasted hair done correctly. I'd like some suggestions as to what I can do to fix it and make it better, if you don't mind.

Geez, I'm churning sprites out almost as fast as kirbysonic does avatars.

I think the tuft on Blue Ghost should be slightly larger.

Don't think this will be the hard one if you plan on including the blood ghosts, Smash.

I really like the U. F. Whoa, though.
