I know the Guile edit is just a placeholder for something more, but I just did this quick sketch of The Norwegian to provide Lando some inspiration. :-??

Rage looks beautiful doesn't Rage.....
I have no legs in this photo. This is my fire form. fire spews from my abs like a rocket booster.
no problem bro ralph. i know you gonna come up with something pretty dang cool too. lol.
well i did some editing work for life bars. this is just a mockup for now but coming along solid. V-nix did some custom lifebars awhile back for the ABR project and then remade them even better. so i am using the original ones he dished off to me before he ever released his open ones to all. so far this is what i got with the editing on them:
(http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/3451/cromthegamelifebars.png)
the left side will feature player characters with their main Booster character with fillup gauge and small port. Right side is reserved for all enemy characters . i wanna see if i can get with my bros shadaloo and lead bor coder on the project Malik on the Rage thought with the icons Booster for powerups . maybe can have 3 smaller slots to hold those icon boosters and maybe can use it when you want to. so at one time you will always have your main Booster and then have access to only hold 3 Booster Powerups. When Malik gets to see this and or i get to chat with him we can see how much more doable this idea can be to become a mainstay for the game. :thumbsup:
Interesting.......very interesting......
yes indeed......very interesting... ok why do i seem like i would be stroking my long white chin beard if i had one when i said that? lol. wait...same to you too DCL! lemme find out you got a Fu Man Choo beard ! (http://images.askmen.com/fashion/fashiontip_300/365c_fashion_advice.jpg)
:D yes now it all makes sense with that master level genius you have in making Gambit! :o lol
ok i went off topic....anyway hope you guys like the idea for the Main Boosters character selection way it will be hooked up in the fonts. :thumbsup:
and to add here is one of the new peeps added with a playable character Veronika, a CROM Vixen. thinkin she will be a follow round character with manolostyle and can be used in one of his melee attacks i am tinkering with in idea. she gonna get a few more fixes that manolo pointed out for me to do as well. >:D ::salute::

yes we have our very own CROM Vixens! :thumbsup: =P~
Actually...I look more...like this guy.......
My dude Nemesis...I go right through anything that gets in my way and smash my way to victory...

Hey Lando hope you don't you don't mind, but I "modified" your original sprite version, with Jayden and Kyo for refernce.
Changes:
*I rounded out the head a bit, because the pose on the others is a bit egg-headed.
*Moved the white stripe to the sleeves because it was easier than erasing them.
*Changed the gloves to bleack so the wouldn't blend with the jacket.
*Also I just used the same colors on both the boots and belt.
All colors used are labeled K(yo), L(ando), and J(ayden), with Lando's colors on the left and mine next to them. I might not add the holster or shades because they were a bit tricky for me. If you'd like, maybe I do some clean-up on the other characters, like the Norwegian Boss too? :-?? %%-
(http://plus4chan.org/b/draw/src/132797331411.png)
Perhaps a new stance might help make him not kyoish, want me to cook one up?
Nahhh m it cool tho man for the offer of help, i been already tinkering around with just a small changeup in the hand ,arm postions. I like the Kyo stance but yeah imma rework it just a tad. plus, i wont be in that stance pose long anyway. lol. But there actually is something you and Axel can help me with if possible. 2 characters, one a Booster and one a stage boss. let me know if your interested in the task guys. :thumbsup:
off topic:
I just wanted to share something...If i get my @$$ into Boeing this summer or this other job i got lined up that is paying more than my Exxlon Job i had...( or i hit the powerball lol) this is Lando's Dream machine on 2 wheels!

oh yesss baby, come to daddy Lando! =P~ =P~ ^:)^. by the way, yeah i like nice Bikes! should see the inside of my Max! :thumbsup:
But there actually is something you and Axel can help me with if possible. 2 characters, one a Booster and one a stage boss. let me know if your interested in the task guys. :thumbsup:
Sure I'm in, maybe both Dan and I could do our own versions of both characters. :-??
Also my theory for why everyone keeps editing your self-sprite Lando, is because you are our leader, and it is our duty as artists to best represent our leader in our own interpretations.
:o wow man , thats good dang news bro! :thumbsup: . well as far as i know its part of the characters concept he done. The only way i think it would be vital is if he uses it in attacks somehow. So you having issues spriting the hook/claw thingy? hmmmm, i would either do one of 2 things:
1. find a sprite character that has a sorta claw like that and edit it a bit. ( try some samurai showdown sprite from here in the packs if possible)
2. scratch sprite that sucker best as could be . ;D
i can ask the guy who made the microart formof himto see if that hook is vital to the character or if we can just work around it. i would take a shot at making it once i see the sprite so i can see how he is positioned to edit it in.
(http://plus4chan.org/b/draw/src/132876130512.png)
Maybe it's because of the pose, but I couldn't get the claw right, so I just recolored the glove for now. :-??
Next up is Dfalcon right?
gawd i cant sprite on this cpu ! it freakin sucks! well i looked at both sprites you and axel done and did a very rough draft fusion. if my old pc was working or i had my new one i could have hooked this up far better. but this is the concept i came up with using both sprites as the base. simple and just needs proper editing and shadingh more. i guess you will get the idea on which part to which.

(http://plus4chan.org/b/draw/src/132967770664.png)
Does this work? It's basically Rugal's entire body and Yamazaki's head.
I left the gloves on because I'm not sure which hand should have the hook. Though it does look like it'll be easier with the left. :-??
I fear/respect sensei Rage-Sama now cuz that sprite aparence... @^@
(http://i676.photobucket.com/albums/vv130/_Rage_/images.jpg)
yeah thats me
Cheers Lando
thanx Spidermew and me too man. lol i am always looking forward to stuff getting done in the communities. lol
as for your sheet , you think you could do an example for me of the actual animation? i have all the sheet and have to cut them out for the sequence but i would like to make sure which ones to use.
As for Boosters so far:
Rage will be complete for a booster, Alan joestar already gave me his sheet awhile back, G- Lux should be done as well, Magma dragoons i worked on way back just gonna need the extra stuff i want to add on to him for firing a missle in the air with it coming out the side and the ground explosions fx when it lands, Dooms Power rush is done in sheet, DCL should be done by demo time too, Acey should be done for the Random icon drops in animation ( still need a huge helicopter for him and add in the sprite he gave me to use for ABR HXH stage and tweak it a bit) Nx men will hopefully be done , still editing his car with more detail a bit.
Nx Men car I have to still make fixes to and shade:(http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m527/lando36/NXcar_zps5e5d3cf2.png)
especially that windshield! \-/o ~X(
of course Spidermew sheet is done and some more guys will do some stuff of they own for boosters within the Crom crew and cool community folks. ( i still want to see if Nestor, Manic, Batzarro , Arch, hypnotize and some others from here would like to join in being a booster area effect character. Not much sprite work needed anyway for those so i got to ask lol)
also an idea is to have someone or random folks be invincibility icons. no actual sprite but maybe just a head sprite and we could add those as temporary invincibility power up icons. This way give some people who may not have the time to sprite themselves as a full booster can be still part of the project. Anyone has an idea of what we could use for those icons types post them up. appreciate that big time. :thumbsup:
Wellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll... lol yeah the bor project itself is in a mixture fusion style per say. CVS-ish. I use any base that can work but just use mostly either mvc and cvs bases fused up together and edit. Supa character is not a problem at all even tho it started off as a KOF full on edit. to keep some of the details he wanted i didnt change much but the head shading , the jacket shade spots. but since i will help him out on his character it will be even better since supa is a very good spriter. Most if not all the characters thus far arent one type strict other than the bosses . Blackswag ( jodafro ) is both an sf3 and mvc base. i have to work on the legs more i see. lol Stages tho i dont want to be like KOF style so i will be looking more for the others like mvc, cvs and so forth that blend well .
Now on to what enso and you discussed Skorp.
rule number one of anything in mugen or bor spriting...pixel spriting and certain type of images for that matter like these...DO NOT EVER SAVE AS A JPG! :D
i saw your edit and was like aww it aint bad at all...but then i copy it and went to try and clean it up...i saw you saved it as a JPG when i went to save it from the site. Never ever save any pixel work as a jpg bro. ruins the entire thing and have to either do it all over again or you will have to sit there and edit that stuff for tons of time to clean it. :'( i think you did that bhy mistake tho cause i have seen you post stuff i think before as a png. So no worries. if you have the same base and want to redo it or do a total do over then cool. just make sure to save as either png, gif, or bmp format. :thumbsup:
yeah as Enso said there are many tuts around on kof to cvs sprite conversioning and other ways too. depends on what you trying to go for. My adivice is try cvs bases, rotd bases, and mvc bases. if you gonna use a Kof base then just you will have to edit it more on the light souce and shading style. ( side note...I hate snk bases but love the characters. they have way too many colors to make details...i hate it lol) personal lando rant right there. lol
here is a punk lil tut i made over at the crom . it was for a cool homie to use for something for the idea of skin shading mvc style, plus some.

well hopefully it helps out with us beginners. :thumbsup:
but just let me know if you need some hook up on it bruh and i will see what i can do to lend a hand to get it where you want it if you run into a tuff spot yourself. Let me know too if its a full on booster character that comes on screen to do the area effect damage, or its a booster icon only for health and powerup or Invincibility type deal. cause those i only really need a top half sprite and not bottom legs and all that. Rage is a full ob booster character that comes on screen but i showed on other page how the icons look for all. ::salute::
i am not an expert but i am a master noob style. :D ;)
(http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m527/lando36/IMThelicopter2_zps15315742.gif)
yeah thats Zvitor as the pilot . for both as booster drop ship and pilot for the sky battle stage . :thumbsup: thanx Z dude!
for some strange reason on here and now in my host spot i uploaded the image the doors move slower, but this one plays just right except the doors are open longer for Acey full view as i have it on my desktop ( above version) before loading the new image i edited 4 times! (http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m527/lando36/IMThelicopter2_zpsd00c3878.gif) never the less should play right once ingame as it should . :thumbsup:
