Thank you for the references ZX2.Daeron said, October 28, 2016, 07:26:24 pmGreat looking Neko Majin!Althou the head its a bit small for my tasteRef:Spoiler, click to toggle visibiltyYou can quote me on this, "I should have just listened to Daeron."I decided to go with a reference that was consistent. So I took the Super Sonic Warrior Sprites and enlarged them 200%. Side by side with the the new head it is a close match.It took 5 months, but I now agree with Daeron. I will enlarge the head on what I have done so far by 10%.
Neko Majin looking good! I figure I'll post this in this thread as well.My attempt at drawing a more character accurate big portrait for Farmer Z2
Ethan The Human said, April 09, 2017, 08:10:45 amNekomajin looks great to me!I just posted this in the Hyper DBZ discord:The sprite is great and really captures the style, but I personally think it needs a few minor adjustments; 1. The Sprite is too tall, Future Trunks with the long hair is supposed to be the same height as goku, whereas in this sprite is looks to be maybe 5 or 6 pixels taller than goku. 2. The viewer's right arm (the arm closest to the right :p) needs some minor fixes in terms of anatomy, right now it just looks kinda flat to me. Also this last one is just a sort of "pet peeve" but i think the knees should be more bent; it makes the stance look more natural. Other than that it's a great sprite, much respect. (If you want I can sketch out something that might help.)
All great observations Pixelqted.I wouldn't say future Trunks is the same height as Goku.He is taller than Vegeta, but shorter than Goku.GOD984, That farmer looks really good, but I am not sure it looks like a Z2 portrait.My 100th post yeah!
Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind when in the future.I was suggested to attempt the same sprite but with Trunks' EB stance, does this look alright before I start animating it?
Two things,1. GOD (lol.... sorry) I'd prefer going into the Fighter Factory, taking a look at the FarmerZ2's Character portrait should be easy to find. 2. Ethan Idk about using that stance for the sprite. but I can tell you that probably wouldn't be the best stance to start with, Maybe if it was adjusted a bit more just to save you the trouble of having to redo it later if it turns out that it's not looking right when being animated. :/ Though I'm no expert so.
Here are two Trunks sprites . The first is from UB22, and the other Super Butouden 2.If I was going to animate Trunks I would use one of these stances.It would be easier to transition between animations with one of those stances.Also if you needed help animating a move you could use a sprite sheet as a cheat sheet.The Extreme Butouden Trunks has a sword to grab from his back. That may be why his stance is different.
It seems like some problems with some of the Z2 characters when it comes to transitions in animation has to do with the character's arm or hand being in front of their chest, or belly -_' pretty weird. I mean granted it looks pretty good with characters like Freeza, Gohan, and Now Hercule. But it is the Spriter's choice to do so (Hopefully succeeding in the process). Also here's my OC's character portraitNo fingers because it's so hard to do atm. =_='
Excuse the rushed mockup, but if I were to give Trunks a sword, would this be a good stance to put him in? Cammy was the first thing that came to mind when I thought of another stance for Trunks.
Huh. Wasn't Force working on that version of SSJ Trunks? I mean I hadn't really seen anymore updates in a long time. not saying you can't work on the same character. Hmm or maybe this version could be the form he has wearing saiyan armor in SSJ form, and gets large buff.
Force's last posted on his Future Trunks in this topic was 4 years ago.He has not logged on in 3 months.Ethan The Human, that stance would work great for a sword.Trunks could jab with the free arm to hit confirm. Then follow up with the big slash.A sword would also allow him to do the finishing attack he used on Mecha-Freeza.Being a character with a weapon would really make him stand out in a good way.Samurai show down, and Last Blade characters would also help broaden his move set, and reff.http://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters/hanzo.html
Yeah but he made a thread for the character ssjtrunksZ2 not future trunks so if you search you'll see his most recent stuff.Also Uuuupdaaaaaaaaaaaaaate~ <Finally fixed the freakin fingers! lol <And here's the process of it of courseNow what I like about it is before I was just using colors from the character's sprite, but then decided to use like 1 color of SSJ Goku's portrait for the skin shading, and I think I did rather well except just like Neko Majin I suck at doing the outlines and such =_=;Also this will be going up on my OC's Thread which is KairiaZ2. but I'd still like some feedback even outside of my thread.

Thanks, and for the trunks height I was refering to this picture, because I'm pretty sure he made trunks after he came out of the hyperbolic time chamber with vegeta (the one that had a ponytail).Edit: If you don't mind I have started reconstructing the sprite and this is what i have so far: (You can finish it if you want but I'm probably gonna keep working on it and finish it myself whenever i have the time)
That is the best Dragon Ball Z height chart I have ever seen!Much better than screen shots.Are there more model sheets like this around the internet?

Frieza Saga, Cell Saga, Buu Saga, etc. All you have to do is look up "DBZ height chart".
Idk I'm still looking at Force's SSJ TrunksZ2 project, and thinking maybe it can be continued by someone else :/ there's a lot of progress already. I'm alright with Pixel doing it just Idk. But if you are doing Trunks in his Saiyan Armor, What Form do you wanna use? your choice sort of decides the type of fighter he is, and who he'll can possibly play like (Or I mean opens up that discussion).SSJ Trunks & Super Trunks are personally my favorite looking (mainly Super trunks even if he's not SSJ2 he looks like a Super Alex Third Strike Grappler)
Hey man, I never even thought about continuing force's project. I was only trying to show my interpretation of the others guys sprite. I would love to finish forces project but I don't have any of the sprites and I'm not an official member of team z2 so I would most likely have to get it approved.
