Alex looks sweet, but I've the feeling his head is a TAD too big for his body, or it's just his stance that makes him look puny Krauser well, proportions seem alright but the muscle definition is awkward and the colors are just too bright, also just not enought contrast i'd say
Sean Altly said, July 31, 2011, 02:51:09 amI was basically directly copying the proportions of the Sonic Battle sprite, which I thought looked like somewhere between Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic. Quack edited the face and made it look much better, too.That's why he looks odd. His limbs are too thick. If you look at any official artwork of Sonic (Classic or Modern), his limbs and body are very slim. Those proportions look fine in the lower res sprite because there's less to work with. But at this scale, you can see more details and the flaws become more apparent. It's not your fault, really. Sonic Battle will serve as a great reference for moves and animations, but a direct resize of the sprites won't work. At those proportions, he looks more like Mickey Mouse in a Sonic costume.

I got a bit lazy with the palette, took the colours from a few sprites.

I got a bit lazy with the palette, took the colours from a few sprites.Krauser's proportions look more like they fit in SFA rather than CvS (KOF 96 Krauser would be a better place to start in terms of proportions and all of that), as does the shading on his arms and upper body - SFA M. Bison would be a good comparison here.
Sean Altly said, July 30, 2011, 07:29:17 amI don't see why it doesn't fit. It looks good to me. I addressed everything Cazaki noted, used CVS colors, it fits. I don't see how it doesn't.his mouth is to big, seems like a dog or something, sonic creates the visual effect of a Circle even with his mouth all the time, so make it smaller and it would be better, I'm sure of it (he looks good so far)

I like the pose, but as it is it's a little obvious her top half is missing frames compared to the bottom. Her arms should sway a little further to the left as well.
Could someone who is better with faces take a look at my Axel sprite and try to fix his? I'm just not great at getting faces right in pixel form and people are complaining about it even though it's not final. Any help would be appreciated. It's posted above, but I can post it again if necessary.
Sean Altly said, July 31, 2011, 11:21:40 amUpdated Axel, he's thinner now. He's got kind of a Muppet face, but I'm working on it.Here's an idea maybe you can contact the guys doing the Sega vs Capcom game. http://sinhra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=440&start=140Unless you going for the retro feel
That's pretty nice, I guess I just always imagined Axel to be bulkier, which is why I didn't attempt to sprite him like that. I was also trying to give him his stance from SoR, that stance looks like a reworked version of Terry's. Also, he seems to be missing his headband. I may see if I can get permission to use that and go from there.
Here another reference:The author is Cap_Rock, same of Blaze (http://forum.mgbr.net/index.php?showtopic=54810)We still seeing Kim for his face Spoiler, click to toggle visibiltyI would put this sprite reference in your topic but... then I didn't do it, but, now, you're asking...
From what I see people are only looking at his nose and mouth then saying his face looks bad but I don't really see it.
