Requesting 4 Charasets with Battlecharas for 2k3

[Darkfox]

Wow, very nice Valiere! Been a long time since I've seen such an active spriter on Charas.

And yeah, that sword does look like a pain to animate. O_o

[Terradont]

That is... godlike. I cannot thank you enough <3

[Valiere]

Glad you like it. It just occurred to me that you did ask for Sybel to carry the sword over her shoulder....did you mean when she was just standing in battle and not swinging? I thought you meant for her to carry it on her back in the walking charset. In the battle char, I just did what I felt looked most natural: her holding it with two hands kind of low to the ground.

I may wait a little to start the next one, but I wanted to ask about Vesper and his tattered beige cape. Do you want that to stay in the charset and battle charset? On one hand, it could be difficult to animate. On the other hand, it could look pretty awesome too. I could reduce the size of it so it doesn't drag on the floor, and I think that would be an improvement.

[Terradont]

For your first question, yes, i originally wanted her to hold the sword over her shoulder when she was standing, but i must admit that this looks much better.
I also noticed i didn't comment about her victory pose, and that was just awesome.

About Vesper, his cape and his spiky shoulderpad is his biggest charasteristics. If it's helpful to you, do reduce the size, but have in mind that it's supposed to go down on his sides, with the hole in the back.

Lastly, as i said before: Take your time, i have all the time in the world.

[Valiere]

All right, I think I can swing it.

[Valiere]

I lied about taking a break. Here is Vesper.






LOOK AT THAT HAIR. Turned out beautiful, damn it. He's got a better mane than Sybel. She gon' be all jealous.


Oh, and when looking over Sybel's charset, I noticed that some of hers had the wrong color in the corner of her eye...it should be a pale gray instead of a pale blue. I corrected it and replaced the file, so if you're an obsessive perfectionist too, you can re-save it. Yes, I know, I'm ridiculous.

[Terradont]

That's awesome, once again! His hair is beutiful

Just don't work yourself out xD

[Valiere]

I know, someone's already warned me not to get burnt out on requests.

I think I'll force myself to wait a day or more until I start working on the next battle char. Maybe I'll do another weapon set or something.

[Terradont]

That sounds good to me.

[Terradont]

I noticed one thing about the Vesper charset. Vesper's tattered cloak should have a rip from the bottom to just before the top, instead of just a hole.

[Valiere]

Oh damn, you're right. I'll tweak it.

[Valiere]

Okay, here it is. I knew I'd come to hate that cape.

[Terradont]

Ah, much better

[Terradont]

BTW, i've changed my mind about the design of Ariethiel. This is what she should look like instead, and also with the lantern as a weapon instead of a staff:

[Valiere]

Fine by me. How does she use the lantern as a weapon? Does she swing it? Blind enemies? Cast magic?
