Thanks. :)

So here's the animated part of the lava I was talking about yesterday, I managed to rip it:



And here are the skies, in beautiful Photoshop hi-res:



Once I finish the mountainous backdrop (which will be faithful to how the anime handled it), I'll put the entire thing as an animated mock up.

Thoughts? Anything I should add to it, remove, edit?

Maybe have the sky more blood red? And have the horizon dark green to black and then transition to the sky you have like this:

Also do the clouds move and will you do lightning?

It's looking awesome atm keep it up!

I'll make it bleed a bit more.  :P

This was meant to be the sky line, so I wasn't planning on making it move.  Would you like me to add the clouds from Earth plains and edit them to fit the atmosphere or do you want me to remove the one I made?

I'll see if I can make lighting.

That can work. Maybe we can have the sky lighten and darken. Like from the lightning

Actually, that sounds perfect. It gives the stage a really eerie and ominous vibe. I'll see to it soon.

As for adding clouds, I'll try to reference stages from either: Children of the Atom, Street Fighter Zero 2, SF3: New Generation or Darkstalkers 3. I think it'll work out, maybe 2 or 3 moving clouds sounds good.

Hopefully, it'll all be done by the end of this week. ^_^

Decided against foreground mountains, and reserved them to BG hills and mountains, in a similar way to Daeron's Namek stage.

First one was completely made from pixels by me, while referencing Shuma-Gorath's MSH stage. Tree was taken from X-Men CoTA.

I'll send you the lightning sky PSD, because the GIF looks terrible and plain lossy in quality. Sent

With you saying that, this means I've done something right, considering your art skill and eye for lots of things digital art related.

Let's see how the rest of my RL goes, and I'll consider doing either Forest or Budokai Tenkaichi when I have the free time and at least finish one of my on-going WIPs.

Either way:



Here's the lightning effect you proposed in GIF format. Note that this won't be pixelated like this, but for now this is only to showcase how it'll be like, I couldn't find any better way to export it.



If this gets a green light, I'll post them as individual PNG frames, since the quality doesn't seem so lossy when I save it in that format.

I'll take that as a greenlight.



So we are almost done here, for the first time in MUGEN history, the lazy duck here is actually going to complete something.

Only thing left to do are the destroyed Namekian houses, and then the final plain/hill that's outlined in dark purple. Once I complete those, I'll send you everything as indexed PNGs, and the lightning frames and sky will be sent as indexed PNGs separately. (and then nominate myself for a Contributor Star, since I need Inbox space. Plus it gives me MUGEN superiority!)

I hope to go back to one of my own WIPs after this, maybe when I finish it, I'll consider doing either Budokai Tenkaichi or Forest, depending on my RL time.  ^_^

Thanks. I hope to apply everything I learned/did here in Shibuya Crossing, I actually gained some new insight into stage-making from this (proper hand-made dithering, for example)

I'll look into that when I start spriting it. ^_^

LOL, since when was graphics making a logical thing? I literally swap back and forth between logical and illogical when doing sprites :laugh:

Thank you. I really enjoyed working on this, and more stages will come for this. :D :D
