Re: CF's Small Skin Shop - Chaos Lord Roll?
« Reply #90 on: November 22, 2012, 06:50:05 AM »
Oops, I bumped my skin topic without a new skin.  Or bot.  Or skinbotcombo.

Well, for starters, I've had fun running around servers as Roll, Master of Chaos for the last few days.  It was originally a silly temporary name, but not only have I become attached to it--I'm thinking of creating a new skin for it.

Yes, it's Chaos Lord Roll, adding to Roll's already-immense wardrobe.  Her colors and outfit were heavily inspired by AQ World's 13 Lords of Chaos and their Leader, Drakath, so look at them to get an idea of what I'm kind of shooting for.
First and foremost, I lengthened the ponytail--which is nerve-wracking for me, because apparently, I suck at hair.  Her stance is based on the reoccurring pose many of the Chaos Lords share--one arm down, one hand outstretched.  The eye color was changed, reflecting the general theme of chaos...the most prominent thing is that there are two ideas I have going here--Roll armed and Roll unarmed.  In her armed sprites, Roll wields a twisted version of the Roll Sweep.  As you've noticed from the pictures, Chaos has a huge thing with spikes in AQWorlds...for Roll, the bristles of her broom are replaced with spikes.  As you can tell, I'm not good at making an attack animation for it...but I might be able to make it work.
First column is idle, second is how it'll look in MM8BDM, third is an idea of their attack frame.  Personally, I like the unarmed one better, but I'll collect opinions like I always do.


Also, might as well tell what the "mystery skins" are since they'll never get done.
> Gray/Purple:  Malware, Dr. Coda's finest creation and the Bass character to Roll, from my old dumb fangame idea, Mega Man Malversation (Yeah, it got a new, less moronic name).  Likely never happening, to be brutally honest.
> Yellow/Orange:  Honey-Woman, the forgotten Robot Mistress of Mega Man 9.  I wanted to challenge myself by spriting a Robot by myself, but plans fell through when I found someone else already had the same idea.
> Clump of four:  Remember the They Might be Giants song, Particle Man?  Yes, I went (Or thought about going) there.  I was going to try custom-spriting all four of those guys.  Still thinking about maybe Particle and Universe, but the ideas just aren't flowing for Triangle and Person.

...Well, the polls don't lie.  We have a dead tie.  I'm going to start with Unarmed, and then do an Armed version after that's released.  Thank all of you for coming out and voting; your opinions really help me.

Here's what I've got for now.  What I'm interested in is the Walk cycle; does it look good?
In addition, the colors still need a fix, but I'm not sure if I should use the NES palette or the DooM palette for such a fix, with V3A on the horizon...

Some of the front frames are inconsistent with the others. The walking frames are a pixel shorter and her hand is a lot lower in her firing frame.

Her left hand should be shortened a bit in the side frames. Her arm should also be shortened in the side firing frames.

The ponytail in the back/right frame looks a little odd. It looks like her head is obstructing the ponytail, when it should probably be the other way around. I think this might look a little bit better:



Otherwise, it seems pretty good.

...Well, leave it to Kapus to know exactly how to sprite Roll.

Fixed it up.  Does anyone have anything else to add?

Normally I'd both wait a day and take screenshots of the new skin, but A. You already know what it looks like, and B. I'm just really excited to actually get it out there.
Chaos Lord Roll has been completed!

EDIT:  Okay, I took screenshots:

I think that the TF2 bots should be updated, the MVM quotes would work wonderfully well for them.

I would, but honestly...not even Yellow Devil likes those skins anymore, and who uses bots (Let alone my bots)?  No one.

Re: CF's Small Skin Shop - Christmas Rhythm

> Okay, I spotted the official NES palette for reference (Matter of fact, let's drop it right here for reference), so I can fix up Chaos Lord Roll myself.  It's next on my list of things to do.  As for an Armed skin...I may test my metal mettle by doing one later, but for now, CLR is staying unarmed.

> 'Tis the season for giving.  Here's a gift I've given to a fellow member over at Sprites, Inc.--Rhythm Skin & Bot Pack.


?:  That typo in the bot chat makes my eyes bleed.
A:  I know.  I fixed it.
?:  Yeah, okay...who the devil is Rhythm?
A:  Rhythm is a fan character from Rhythm_BCA's Mega Man fan webcomic, Bass Comic Adventures.  Built by the clinically insane Dr. Oudin, his design was a refinement of Bass' to be even stronger than he was.
?:  Mega Man Edits 2:  Electric Boogaloo!
A:  Rhythm is, by design, supposed to resemble the other Super Robots (Mega, Proto, Bass).  Once again, this is a gift, I had no input in their design, and I find them sufficiently advanced to warrant their own skin.

> After fixing up Chaos Lord Roll, I'll probably update The Everything File I have going, unless some brilliant skin appears from nowhere that I have to do.

I find it interesting that that comic has a Ran edit.

Nice job, I suppose.

Yeah, I'm aware he's nothing impressive, but I wanted to do something nice.  Rhythm is really the icon of Bass Comic Adventures, though (Marked by Rhythm_BCA naming himself after them), and in all honesty, they're probably one of the more interesting characters I could have skinned.  Not only does Rhythm_BCA not care quite so much for his other Robot Masters, but they wouldn't have been so great-looking either.
But I suppose it can just be boiled down to "I wanted to do something nice."

In other news, Chaos Lord Roll was fixed for NES, so you can pick her up while I get dragged off on Christmas family-visiting shenanigans.  Fun times!

Re: CF's Small Skin Shop - GIFT: Beta Chan
« Reply #100 on: February 25, 2013, 10:46:58 PM »
Yep.  It's me again.
Bumping my topic again.
For a pretty simple gift skin again.
PRESENTING BETA CHAN SKIN AND BOT PACK


DOWNLOAD

A Rokko Chan-universe fan character designed by MissingNo2 (Known as Mister Gessert here), I helped a lot in her character design, and I'm clearly hopelessly attached to her.  A prototype of Sane's Robot design so he could make Rokko as perfect as possible, she felt unappreciated and ran away from him, eventually finding her way into Dr. Mad's forces.
The download contains a bot chat for Beta Chan and two skins--one for her original design (Beta Chan-Sane) and one for the modifications Dr. Mad made to her.
Blah blah blah whole edit spiel; do you want it or not?

Oh, my God...just, oh my God.
I never thought I'd be able to post this.
But here it is.
HERE IT ACTUALLY IS.
MALWARE SKIN/BOT PACK.

DOWNLOAD
Before you ask who she is, she's my pet creation from the Mega Man Malversation series...once sadly known as CorRollption when I still failed at names.  Built after the events of the first game (Yes, I have expanded the initial single game into a trilogy in my head, stop laughing at me), she serves as a Bass-like character to Roll—her sole purpose in existing is to murder Roll and reclaim the sword that she "stole from Coda" in the first game.
Or, at least, that's the short version of it.  But in any case, she's one of my favorite characters of mine in the history of ever and I did finally get sprites of her so of course I'm going to skin her.  I hope you enjoy her even a small fraction as much as I do.
Thanks to Rhythm_BCA for helping me craft Malware's sprites and get this skin started!
How many of you freaked out when you saw the thread title and thought my skins had given you a virus?  Be honest.
