2015 is turning green!

I've made some time to work on Z2 stuff the last few days and luckily I was able to jump the hurdle I was facing regarding Piccolo's progress. I started over. And he looks 2x better now. Antennas, wristbands (or they're actually part of his body?) and shoes are color-seperated. He's got the 4-fingers design. Now, here's the new stance I'm going with and some palette suggestions. Oh and some animations. Thanks to @Daeron: for the base frames of his walking animation. Yo @Diepod: I can draw relatively pretty pants now! It only took me like 5 years.




A movelist is made and being tweaked by Iced and me, as usual. He'll receive the essentials like Sonic Kick, Diving Kick Flurry, Mystic Attack, Mental Shock and Special Beam Cannon. We're planning to make him very versitile and tech-heavy. A coder is not decided yet, but we have a handful of picks in mind.

First post will likely be updated once more stuff (more animations, videos, movelist...) is ready to be shown
I can't say when I'll be pre-occupied with other projects again, but for now I'll continue working on Piccolo sprites.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome as always!

I've been hoping for this one, but I thought it would be too good to be true. Looks amazing.

Q: Will you use Piccolo's coolest outfit ever for a winpose/intro? (It'd extra cool if he lifted a schoolbus too)

Piccolo looks dope!!!

The only thing I would see that could be improved is his height and maybe twist his left leg (spriters view) more inside, so transistion will be easier :)

In all games height is abstracted to be closer to something that fits the sprite size.  I think his height is pretty good.
Its kinda like how krilin is under waist size on the show but reaches goku collarbone on sprited games.

He could probably stand to lose a few pixels.

While I agree about the game height, I truely think that it would improve his overall posture  decreasing his leg size (the legs were just decreased to 95% in this example) - compared to the other Z2 chars it matches better I think.

Yeah I'll probably shave 3/4 pixels of height off his legs , seeing these comparisons.

I dont think the difference gains anything in the other poses, just in the walking where he gets fully erect ( eheheh erect ) does it make a noticeable difference.

Am I the only one seeing his pectoral muscles stretch or shift in like a single frame of this animation? Is that intended or am I just seeing things? O.o

If you see a Diverien, it's almost definitely me. So say hi :D
