here is a slowed down version

(http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/9373/hairdos.gif)


alright I know the old intro is in this wip section somewhere maybe on the first page.  Anyway here is a new one before the recoloring

(http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/8523/oldwinnercircle.gif)


and here is some of the images recolored, I couldn't animate them because fighter factory is screwing me sideways

also I made a polaris wearing her shiar uniform using tomwellings colors from marvel outsider, but I repainted mine myself and added a few things so I wouldn't be biting his style, the only thing I couldn't figure out was how to get the web behind her collar, I'm sure z will fix it if it's that much of an eye sore.

a few of the jumps

here's my polaris from xfactor guess appearance on xmen the animated series

(http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/4967/719853polarisc1superfcdf.jpg)

(http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/3771/polarisintrotheanimated.png)

one more intro



(http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/8471/magnetrix.png)








yeah I could use your help, I don't really have a lot of bases, it's really just rouge and bits and pieces of rose from sfa 3's face.  maybe storm on a few but just legs when jumping.  anyway I'm digressing zvitor has all my sprites so you would have to get with him to know more what's going on with her.  I think he's recoloring now or something.  I don't think he's using everything that I sent him God willing.  But there's some good stuff I sent him and it works well together the sprites that look odd to you are far and few between.  He might just need to resize some of them but that's it.  it's mainly rouge.  also I think zvitor's working or reworking some sprites to his advantage cuz he liked the way z666 altered and recolored my stance.  but any help is welcome just send it zvitor's way post what you got in this section.  Credit will be given I'm not a glory hog I just want to get her out the door.  I'm trying to give forge and strong guy a friend for x factor. will post something soon.  intro wise but won't be animated.  Also daraku use the colors that zvitor wants to make it easier on him.  He could also use a walk animation probably :-??


here is another intro polaris mockingly makes a magento helmet appear on her head and hand with x factor color scheme


 without helmet


(http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/3582/newwin12.png)

with helmet

(http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/202/newwin9u.png)


hello I'm going to post this up real quick, here is polaris before her color change (me and z are recoloring her and I guess fixing things up too at the same time.

so to explain this before anyone ask

back in the day before crime fighting polaris use to dye her hair brown to avoid looking freakish or embarashment or both I don't know, but after a while she said to hell with and let it all hang loose and let the ivory spring runneth over. I'm digressing anyway this intro is just her starting out with her brown hair and throw the power of magnetism and mugen she transforms her hair back to green or undyes maybe there were traces of metal in her hair dye I don't know.


here's the old one before revamp and recolor in gif form:

(http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/4250/hairdyeee.gif)

the new one sorry it's not in gif form but your get the idea escpecally since this one is like 10 more sprites maybe zvitor will put this gif form for you.  I would I just don't want to mess up the colors putting in fighter factory and it's late


here's the sprite sheet for the new one:


(http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/8581/hairdyerevamped.png)




haven't posted anything in a while so here is something

old jumping fierce kick

(http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/3552/fiercekick.gif)


new one but not animated yet

(http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/8590/jumpingfiercekick.png)



yep hair from scratch I feel like a damn hair stylist,

anyway here are my final sprites for a while, as I said before I'm leaving for Iraq sunday and I'll have to wait find wifi, hopefully they have it, zvitor take good care of polaris maybe I'll see a video once I finally log back on here

this was here standing fierce punch but I decided to turn it into a hyper, I made this before I read this comic and it was funny that I saw what I sprited in x factor, so it inspired me so I went full throttle and turned it into a hyper.  what happens is that issue #95 of xfactor polaris and random get into a scrap and she repeatly smash him with his own ride so that's what I sprited I even put random's name on the license plate.

I'll try to explain the order
first she pulls the car from off screen
throws it at player 2 forcing them towards the wall
leivtates once again and brings it down on the foe repeatly

here's the old one

(http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/1866/standingfiercepunch.gif)

here's the new one not animated

(http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/4280/carwreck.png)

next is what zvitor wanted, he wanted me to recolor the wolverine slice, I took out the first part because it seemed unecessary, z you can add it back if you want to, but this way in the fight it's quicker on the draw


heres the old one:

(http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/4643/lightpunch.gif)


here's the new one not animated:

Oh right. when you make a character. exactly what not to do. We need fairness not cheapness. From the looks of it you got those down warecus. whats your next move for polaris?
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on April 07, 2009, 08:02:33 PM
I don't know what you mean if you mean that she will be cheap, I wish it was the case I usually get my butt handed to me playing with her, but the more I p,lay around with her I can woop up on some fools

in watch mode she can only beat herself

she's getting there

there's method to my maddness

I think if I had magnetic powers I wouldn't waste them blasting people with magnetic energy I would create doc ocks arms or colussus leg to supplement my own fighting skills, she does have few magnetic blast but she's differnt than magneto, but I tried to implement how she controls metal in flashy ways
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: Spidermew on April 07, 2009, 08:09:58 PM
Magic choppyness hurts....  ???

Her hair in most animations shifts in unatual ways, as does the parts of her body in the animations.

All these unatural movements make it look unappealing. Try making some more frames for the anamations and look at some characters who move in simular ways to see how to do that.

I thought she had magnetic powers like magneto, why is she making metal appear out of noplace like she's the green lantern?
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on April 07, 2009, 10:10:29 PM
gif makes it look choppier, first char, i don't know, it plays better.
as far as her powers the inspiration comes from a jim lee comic where magneto forms his costume out of the enviroment (mainly from the ground) and his costume is an armor.  So with that said she does the same thing except in the form of an attack.  No different than CotA magneto pulling metal from out of nowhere to attack, only she does it with more pazzaaz.  Plus my goal was not to make a female mageto with his same energy blast attack style. 
I like the hair (think static)
some of the animations are a little fat so they will be trimmed accordingly.

peace

In a mugen world where Ronald McDonald can beat Superman, anything you can imagine is possible.

Plus he gives basis for his choices. I think she looks pretty good and looks as if some of the things she can do are highly unique which is always a plus.

I wouldn't say broken, but now that you bring it up, the shoulder positioning could be a little better. right now it gives a slight dislocated look if you look hard enough...which knowing zvitor, he would cause he's awesome like that with details :)

other than that the arm is all good.

I LIKE VERY MUCH YOUR SPRITE, but you can make her better just changing a bit her palette, and using much contrast. Here a little change of palette. I hope you like, you should even clean up a bit your sprites... take a look

I'm really glad you guys like it.  To tell the truth I don't know how to do palletes but if someone wants to make em I wouldn't mind and here's hoping that zvitor still will code her [-O<


here is intro:

inspired by the fact she use to dye her hair brown, so by magic and magentism she turns it green before the match ;D

There is some weird things going on with her upper body . Make the yellow part of the costume wider in the first sprites . So it will look alot smoother in the animation . Actually I kind of think maybe her upper body shouldn't " shift " so much . Now that I look at it again

I too like the original palette. And I like some of the things going on as well...looks good warecus. As for palettes in the end, there might be some palette specialists that will help you out when you get to that stage. They are in the graphic arts section and they rock!

As for Hulk with the gun, that gave me a good chuckle, also looks great :)

Post by: warecus on April 08, 2009, 02:53:39 PM
no prob bob I think someone of your calibur can trim the extra fat off her that is sorely needed and you can go crazy

also I spoke with acey and also volzilla has dug up all the info and said that Omega Red (Gm Spectre) gave me permission to use his sprites and code or whatever needed.  even though I think there is one sprite of his that is actually left in the whole char folder and the code had to change accordingly to accomadate the sprites.  But anyway she all the permission stuff is out of the way and when I finish the get hits which I did 15 last night I will send her over and take your time I just hope she gets to make in your avatar where all the chars your coding are after you with the babies in hand.

thanks again buddy-and no rush

I see what your guys are saying it moves quicker in realtime so I didn't notice as much, as far as her chest the upper body is from psylocke and her boobs wiggle a bit so they get smaller and bigger and her upper body shifts also, but again I'll look at it

thanks again guys, yeah updates I guess I wanna make this a char were everybody can pitch in nothings taboo, since gm gave me the go ahead I'm going to spread the wealth, just don't make her do silly things like, i don't know play with poop, also if someone would like to make a throw animation that would be cool, if not I'll do it but I was thinking of like ice man's freeze throw except have those little metal rocks instead of ice chunks.  the walk, I'm lazy i started one but it never came out right so I made her float, magneto floats too so I don't feel too bad.

This is a common error by man sprite editors, and still happens on and on.

Looks at her animation: half of body remains at the same place when she does the move. Is IMPOSSIBLE to someone to perform such move.
people love to re-use the same base to make new edits, and you can see this mistake in many chars (try to use crouched attacks and you will see how their torso rotating without move the base.)

You're getting closer , or you took things too far . You made her head turn which is cool . But the only part turning is her face . Her hair doesn't really move . So either make her face not turn , or make her hair move the way her face does

In case you don't know, Polaris' hair is naturally green. She was blond(if i'm not wrong), but when she's got the powers her hair grown green....
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on April 12, 2009, 05:02:54 PM
I know she use to dye it brown because she didn't like it, so an intro with this hair change mean she's gettin ready to throw down mutant style, like she just showed up on the scene

"She has bright green hair, the first indication of her mutation. At first, she dyed her hair brown to hide this. In recent comics, she appears with her characteristic green hair."

so basically she undyes her hair before the fight is what I'm try to convey, meaning it's on like donkey kong-the gloves are off, etc...


as far as the jump kick, I might look at it but for now it looks good in action and her toro turns too which is pretty quick and it is a jump light kick after all, I think I'm done with that chapter

I would say get rid of the out line around the kick . I don't know what it is actually supposed to be but it's just too straight lined & doesn't really phase in . if it's some kind of energy deal it should slowly appear & form around her . & it shouldn't be that straight . Animation , bro . If you are going to add something like that , it has to have frames . Or you should just to without it .

BTW your hyper ports are being worked on . I asked someone to help you out . :thumbsup:

Man...that is weird. She have a lot of frames...but her hair doesn't moves? The same could be applied to all edits.

I think you should work more in one sprite, them you apply that base to the others. It will be easy to fix errors on this way

It really don't make sense, once she's the Queen of Magnetism.
You really think she would create a bionic leg and grap a pistol from that... Lorna would only grap a piece of metal and drop it in the enemy like a bullet. Weird.

IMO, you're only in a lack of good ideas, try to search some comics or visit www.uncannyxmen.net (http://www.uncannyxmen.net)... You can take really great ideas from here and aply on the char.
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: BlizzardTora on April 17, 2009, 09:07:49 PM
I figure Polaris can just make a bullet shape object and flick it at the same speed a gun could fire it. but that Robocop leg animation would work great as a taunt.
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on April 18, 2009, 02:30:24 PM
hair doesn't move hair spray

she makes the robocop thing because it's only the intimidation factor, the gun will shoot a magnetic blast  :-??

Look below her right arm and you will see. And this move doesn't have speed enough to project her hair so backward.

The same here. She moves just her arms, while all her body is "frozen", even her hair.

Post by: Z999 on April 19, 2009, 04:57:35 PM
Just wanted to react on the sprite part :

- Too many linked colors (gloves, skin and legs share the same colors on some sprites, that kind of thing, would make palettes hard to do)
- inconsistant shading : you can tell the legs from rogue, as you can tell those from storm, it would be best to put them in a similar style.
- the blue around the hairs : why does she have that ?
- Her hips tend to be fat on some sprites, so the legs don't seem to connect well with the torso, would need a bit of resize.
- Weird contrast for the blue and skin.
- Missing some color depht (one more color for the skin and for the blue would not be bad)
- Can't tell if she's wearing a jacket or not, on some sprites it would seem like it, on some only the arms look like coming from a jacket.

In case my feedback is hard to understand (same old langage barrier) i made a quick sprite out of her stance to show you :

I just hope warecus will find some interesting lead in this sprite, and in a more general idea that my feedback can be of some help ^^

I'm almost finish zvitor with what I made last night I'll send em to ya when I'm done and I'll do the get the rest of the get his in this color also.

thanks z666, now that I have done over what I've done last night pixel by thinking pixel I'm starting to appreciate your pallete a lot more, it's more rich and capcomy. truth be told i liked my hair color, but I hated that blue.  You don't how long I looked for that blue.

Thanks olu for your help on animations, I'm brandnew to this creating thing so I need all the help I can get.  that jump kick you had me do over and over about killed me cuz I couldn't figure what was wrong, but now it's my favorite basic move :D

it's funny I thought you guys would reguard this char as another cheap fastly made character but with all the attention and flack I guess we need a polaris more than I thought.  I think with time this char will turn out better than I imagined.

guys all the sprites I'm posting and giving to zvitor is to get him brainstorming ie. robocop leg.  to tell the truth I think the idea would work better with forge since he has cybernetic leg to start with just sans the robo sprite It also gives me good practice.  My friend bet me I couldn't make her do it.


this character is going through more changes than post op micheal jackson

well back to work, I'll post something soon

also I made a polaris wearing her shiar uniform using tomwellings colors from marvel outsider, but I repainted mine myself and added a few things so I wouldn't be biting his style, the only thing I couldn't figure out was how to get the web behind her collar, I'm sure z will fix it if it's that much of an eye sore.

I'm almost finish zvitor with what I made last night I'll send em to ya when I'm done and I'll do the get the rest of the get his in this color also.

thanks z666, now that I have done over what I've done last night pixel by thinking pixel I'm starting to appreciate your pallete a lot more, it's more rich and capcomy. truth be told i liked my hair color, but I hated that blue.  You don't how long I looked for that blue.

Thanks olu for your help on animations, I'm brandnew to this creating thing so I need all the help I can get.  that jump kick you had me do over and over about killed me cuz I couldn't figure what was wrong, but now it's my favorite basic move :D

it's funny I thought you guys would reguard this char as another cheap fastly made character but with all the attention and flack I guess we need a polaris more than I thought.  I think with time this char will turn out better than I imagined.

guys all the sprites I'm posting and giving to zvitor is to get him brainstorming ie. robocop leg.  to tell the truth I think the idea would work better with forge since he has cybernetic leg to start with just sans the robo sprite It also gives me good practice.  My friend bet me I couldn't make her do it.


this character is going through more changes than post op micheal jackson

well back to work, I'll post something soon

Wow now it look a lot better... but the problems now are other ones: THE ANIMATIONS.

I appreciate your big effort to use several bases, but when you try to put these toghter the result is not so good. You need my help ;D
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on April 22, 2009, 06:35:23 PM
yeah I could use your help, I don't really have a lot of bases, it's really just rouge and bits and pieces of rose from sfa 3's face.  maybe storm on a few but just legs when jumping.  anyway I'm digressing zvitor has all my sprites so you would have to get with him to know more what's going on with her.  I think he's recoloring now or something.  I don't think he's using everything that I sent him God willing.  But there's some good stuff I sent him and it works well together the sprites that look odd to you are far and few between.  He might just need to resize some of them but that's it.  it's mainly rouge.  also I think zvitor's working or reworking some sprites to his advantage cuz he liked the way z666 altered and recolored my stance.  but any help is welcome just send it zvitor's way post what you got in this section.  Credit will be given I'm not a glory hog I just want to get her out the door.  I'm trying to give forge and strong guy a friend for x factor. will post something soon.  intro wise but won't be animated.  Also daraku use the colors that zvitor wants to make it easier on him.  He could also use a walk animation probably :-??


here is another intro polaris mockingly makes a magento helmet appear on her head and hand with x factor color scheme

Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on April 25, 2009, 04:44:49 AM
hello I'm going to post this up real quick, here is polaris before her color change (me and z are recoloring her and I guess fixing things up too at the same time.

so to explain this before anyone ask

back in the day before crime fighting polaris use to dye her hair brown to avoid looking freakish or embarashment or both I don't know, but after a while she said to hell with and let it all hang loose and let the ivory spring runneth over. I'm digressing anyway this intro is just her starting out with her brown hair and throw the power of magnetism and mugen she transforms her hair back to green or undyes maybe there were traces of metal in her hair dye I don't know.


here's the old one before revamp and recolor in gif form:

(http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/4250/hairdyeee.gif)

the new one sorry it's not in gif form but your get the idea escpecally since this one is like 10 more sprites maybe zvitor will put this gif form for you.  I would I just don't want to mess up the colors putting in fighter factory and it's late


here's the sprite sheet for the new one:

I love the progression that you have made in your spriting, and I'm glad that you are her attacks look very original and that you are staying away from overused bases.

Also, I love the updated hair. Is it from scratch?

dwe23: Love the portrait, you always manage to make really nice ones!
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: warecus on May 09, 2009, 05:47:24 AM
yep hair from scratch I feel like a damn hair stylist,

anyway here are my final sprites for a while, as I said before I'm leaving for Iraq sunday and I'll have to wait find wifi, hopefully they have it, zvitor take good care of polaris maybe I'll see a video once I finally log back on here

this was here standing fierce punch but I decided to turn it into a hyper, I made this before I read this comic and it was funny that I saw what I sprited in x factor, so it inspired me so I went full throttle and turned it into a hyper.  what happens is that issue #95 of xfactor polaris and random get into a scrap and she repeatly smash him with his own ride so that's what I sprited I even put random's name on the license plate.

I'll try to explain the order
first she pulls the car from off screen
throws it at player 2 forcing them towards the wall
leivtates once again and brings it down on the foe repeatly

here's the old one

(http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/1866/standingfiercepunch.gif)

here's the new one not animated

(http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/4280/carwreck.png)

next is what zvitor wanted, he wanted me to recolor the wolverine slice, I took out the first part because it seemed unecessary, z you can add it back if you want to, but this way in the fight it's quicker on the draw


heres the old one:

Looking good, but don't forget sound. thats what almost everyone forgets. Animations take up so much time, they end up releasing betas and such that have no sound, and that makes the character rather...dull.
Anyways, this is looking amazing, and I can't wait to see how she plays!

Well, in the "Super Marvel vs. Capcom - Eternity of Heroes" section of the IMT creations sub-forum, there are a couple of topics where Acey and laspacho asked for voice actors to provide their characters with.

You could do the same for Polaris, if you want. That would help, right?

Title: Re: polaris
Post by: esn23 on January 19, 2010, 02:40:27 PM
I know it's nothing exciting... Her stance will be slightly altered to where she is levitating but the rest will stay the same...  Anywho.. I need ideas for her hypers and specials.... all I see that she has so far is two beam attacks and and ariel beam.. her hypers are very basic as well..  I will particle illuison them... But here is what I was thinking.. Polaris's secondary mutation is to grow taller and she has super strengh.. She does this by feeding on negative emotions.. So Im thinking she can use this when someone is attacking the hell out of her she can use this mutation to make a counter attack where she punches them so hard they fly off the screen... Also when she was with apocolypse she could ingest different dieases and spread it at a massive level so I was thinking about having he make a green cloud that consumes the entire screen that graudually takes the health off of the opponet... Also I will have an attack where she throws a car at the opponet if i can find a car sprite...  Some magnetic bubble throws and specails.. Anything else you guys can think of would be great..  here is the first sprite(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i143/esn23/polarissss.gif)

Thanks everyone i made slight color changes to her hair and added a yellow band to her leg and finished her stance i will modify more 2 morrow should have her stance and her final look on thurs oh what do you guys think of a hyper where she throws a car at the opponet and it explodes on them
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: yosifun on January 20, 2010, 03:32:57 AM
As for the sprite, I think the shading could be better (her green suit looks way better IMO).
Also, I think you need to better define the outlines of certain parts like the boots and gloves.
Just take some of the female Marvel characters as example, because right now she lacks a bit of "depth" if you know what I mean..

As for hypers and specials:
* Polaris Tempest (hyper)- she pulls and wears the Magneto helmet and does the "Magnetic Tempest" Magneto does but with other green effect.
* Magnetic Dagger (special) - got the idea from the picture below, you can get the sprites from Psylock:
(http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/7298/162390-20824-polaris.jpg)
* Magnetic Push (special) - just throws the opponent to the edge of the screen (like Hulk's HP):
(http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/2/29567/877360-polr.jpg)
* Polar Wave (special) - just a normal projectile, get it from either Magneto or Cyclops:
(http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/8134/184461-46434-polaris.jpg)
* (hyper) No name for this but this picture could get you inspired, maybe throwing the opponent multiple times across the screen:
(http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/1/14487/708568-polaris.jpg)
* Magnetic Rage (hyper) - she flies in the air like in the picture with the glow and starts throwing all kind of things at the opponent:
(http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/3133/108363-28094-polaris_super.jpg)

I would suggest not bringing in other powers she had at one time and now she don't and focus mainly on her Magnetic power, but it's up to you.

You need to make sure that you are not pillowshading Polaris. Her arms, legs and hair make her look very flat.

I did a very quick edit of her legs to show you one way that you could approach shading her

I have to agree with Dead-X. her hair looks like it has no texture anymore. Look at the sprite on the first page of this thread. It looks more realistic. Stick with the original look & just sprite more moves for her.

I would but i changed it up because that design is being used for scarlet witch and warecus wanted me to change her as much as possible so she d6esnt  look like a clone of scartlet witch but as far as the hair i changed it again but no one can tell with just one animation what she will look like but i will release warecus old polaris with the complete polaris im doing for cvg sound good?   
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: TomBewley on January 23, 2010, 09:45:35 AM
I would recommend completely changing the hair to prevent it being too similar.
At the moment it is the same as Scarlet Witch, just green and flat.
Try using someone else's hair such as Storm

They are still too similar! Removing detail is not the way to go. You need to change the shape

A very quick edit again to show how a simple hair change can make her look completely different! I used Gill's hair simply due to how it gives her a sense of power and it was the first long hair that popped into my mind

(http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/2967/polarishair.png) (http://img715.imageshack.us/i/polarishair.png/)

Using hair from one base makes it so much easier in the long run in terms of consistency and making animating so much less painful!

I like the new uniform better but I think that if you want this character to look different than Scarlet Witch, you MUST change the stance (change the position of arms and legs..)

As for the shadowing, Dead-X got it right, before she looked really flat and now her legs look excellent.

Her hair looked better before IMO, but if you want a different hair again because of Scarlet Witch, just use Storm's or Rogue's - should be pretty to "Green" it up (but PLEASE not Gill's hair it's horrible).

Looking forward for the next update :)

Changing her face/shading does nothing esn, you need to put the effort into changing her stance entirely since they are using it for Scarlett Witch. Also her basics will probabky need to be redone, I am assuming

like the new uniform.  kinda hate that they both can't have the same hair. I think it's really noticeable cuz the hair is from scratch with a little shading help from z999.  I would use storm or rougue's hair and make it longer and curl it at the ends (I sound like a hair dresseer)  anyway that is what I used for my new version of polaris that appears in one of the intros of scarlet witch

here is something I did, I don't know if I'm suppose to show this but anywhoo zvitor forgive me

AMAZING hair on that pretty head and I LOVE what you have done with her boobs :cool

This Polaris looks just great! I can only hope dwe23 will use this (with permission of course) for his character. This way, when in the same roster, the Polaris intro and the Polaris character won't look so different.

I just hope dwe23 will consider using this (at least the head), I assume he is very attached to his current sprites..

BTW, how is the progress for Scarlet Witch?

I can see the improvement in the stance, the hair looks better than before too.

Did you consider using warecus's sprites as a base for yours?

I would recommend at least incorporating his head+hair and boobs to your stance, it would be such a shame to pass on such high-quality work which will make your character better and your work easier. :)

Just take a shot at my suggestion, maybe after you'll see some of the feedback you'll think like me. ;)

I was just trying to say something in a nice way, because you mentioned that it took some time to edit the hair. Change the basics & she already has different attacks, so she will look nothing like Scarlett Witch after that. But.....

Word of advice, just use this head

(http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/5117/stanv.gif)

If something is not broken why try to fix it. You just end up breaking it more.

If you use warecus's existing head/hair, all you have to do is change the outline of the hair to make it look different. This hair already has " texture. "  It looks like hair.

Now this sprite of yours....

(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i143/esn23/polarisstance-1.gif)

Her Face reminds me of that girl character on the muppet show that didn't have a nose, but had big eyes. Hard to explain, they weren't real popular characters. Her hair could basically be a towel, a big bandana, some kind of scarf type thing, a crazy hat, or maybe hair. It is not shaded right, there is no " hair " texture to it, & the way it sits on the top of her head looks more like a hat.

This may sound mean to you, but I am just trying to help you out because it just doesn't look right.

I said that about pleasing people to you long time ago when one person didn't like something you were doing & you were going to change it. So yes, do not try to please everyone. But it seems to me that the majority of people will possibly think this head/hair just doesn't look right.

Do what I did in my Wolvenom thread so many times....

Turn it into a poll. This way people can vote anonymously. If the majority like this design, stick with it. If not then go back to the old style. People will vote honestly, where as they may be afraid to type something looks bad.

I guess it is true, some people just can't take constructive criticism.

An insult would be .....

Your sprites suck, I can't believe anyone would try to release a character this bad ( That's an EXAMPLE of an insult ) 

That's an attack, & I didn't say anything of the sort.

I commented very similar as yours in Sic's thread this morning about his Joker move & I don't think he took it as an insult.

I just tried to give you a little C C to help you along the way. But since you are taking my comments as " insulting, " I will not comment in your thread.

Post by: yosifun on January 27, 2010, 02:23:59 AM
I think DARKTALBAIN's intention was good, maybe he went a bit off-topic with the Muppet example, but all he was trying to say that it's his opinion that the old Polaris head+hair is better than your latest version.

People will always make comments, but IMO if a majority of people are saying similar things, you should take it into consideration. Of course the WIP is yours, but a little help from other experienced members like DARKTALBAIN, warecus and Dead-X won't hurt ;)

As I said before, the best base for you IMO is the Scarlet Witch's Polaris intro warecus posted, if you can get permission to use it I say go for it! even if it's just for the head+hair and boobs because you stance have potential too.

Oh.. just so there's no confusion, I'm not talking about the old Polaris sprites but about these sprites:

Post by: TomBewley on January 27, 2010, 06:07:50 PM
I'm just curious as to how the stance will transition to the attacks? She's flying then she's suddenly on the ground. I think you might need to add a few more transition frames.

Also be careful with the palette. It seems to change on her light punch, and make sure that the colours go from darkest to lightest. The lighter blue surrounds the dark blue which looks odd.

I do like the new face and the stance is a nice one, just needs the shading change to make her look less flat!
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: esn23 on January 27, 2010, 06:11:17 PM
So you mean by transitation frame like have her land before she hits right?  I think I can muster something up..  What do you think about the new hair does it look any better?
Title: Re: polaris
Post by: TomBewley on January 27, 2010, 06:34:35 PM

Exactly what I meant! It will make the attacks flow much better

What do you think about the new hair does it look any better?
It looks much more original and less flat than before. Just remember that her hair should not stick together when she attacks so give her hair some stray ends to make it seem more real

This is what I was talking about when you PMed me. Look at how her entire backside looks like it is blowing up like a balloon. It's moving with the hair. You just tried to put in way to much movement, & it's not necessary.

Edit: What makes it look really odd is that the leg band & ankle band do not move at all.

it's  funny you mentioned that, because when I was still working on her I was going to make a intro with that in mine.  blade (don't know if that's his real name) from warzard/red earth.  the first boss before the wizard would be the perfect base.  kong has the sprites or character as open source I think but if you look around this forum or search this forum for kong you find his sprites or char for warzard and the char's name is blade.  Hope that helps

um... actually both are moving only on polaris's right is moving alot more, right does go up and down.

To fix I suggest less chess movement. Just focus on shoulder-arms and face. If it becomes too much of a problem use Rogue's jacket to cover.

Can't wait to see some nice hyper, supers, and flash combos.

This stance looks more natural & more fluent. besides the exploding leg.


(http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i143/esn23/polarisstance-5.gif)

This stance looks much more choppy & she totally moves unaturally. The shoulders move way to much, for no other part of the body around them to move. That one knee moving without the other leg moving at all, makes no sense.

Take the two stances & combine them, but use the Z palette
