So much progress and so much passion! I love it!

Hey Bhatter I had that art work for a while and I've even tried to color it once before.  I didn't like the kind of work I did then and seeing you post the images here really motivated me to try new techniques in coloring to see if I can make something worth using in our CVS3.  It's not perfect but definitely better than any other attempts I've done at coloring an image.  What do you guys think?

Here was my design and here it is in the actual game!!!

Sorry I didn't reply earlier to your PM but yeah man its fine if you use them.  They were used for our 2nd ver of CVS3 and now the design is changing again lol.  Anyway your design looks really cohesive and the blue hexagons in the corners really draw your eyes toward the center so great job :D

I totally wish I could devote more time into the SP and its design but life gets in the way as always lol.  But we are all working hard and bringing new ideas to the table and combining whats working to make the best SP possible.  Technically this is going to be the 3rd version of the SP that we have made but I guess with the new main menu this is would be V4 lol.  We are getting there one step at a time :D

@Bhatter, loving that stage so far man looks fantastic!

So like I've said before I was going to show the concept ideas that I had been sharing internally within the team for the main menu.  They were the ones that REN2K used as a base for his current design.

Here they are below from oldest to newest and then at the end a slightly more modified ver of what Ren2K came up with.  Its not yet done but I think i'm heading in the right direction.  As always any and all comments are welcome.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

This is my WIP of Ren and my design
-I took off the bottom scrolling Text because I thought it took too much space although I did like the news report inspired design of the bottom bar
-Instead of using a traditional menu with all the items separated and visible I was thinking of making it a scrolling ver when only one menu item is visible at a single time.  Kind of like my original KOFXIII SP
-The menu also has some angled words although they are not the exact way I want them yet.  I'm still working on the placement of the words.
-I put face ports of some characters behind the yellow hexagons that will slowly change over time to other characters.
-On the large image to the right I added a circle that will be kind of transparent that has the words "welcome to capcom vs snk 3" and it will rotate
-On the top right corner is the word "LIVE" so it seems that the large image is what is currently on TV
-With every change in menu item the background image will change.
-Although I agree with Ren2k that we should aim for a simple and clean menu design I thought that his version was on the right track but was still missing something to make it stand out more.   
So far that's it

Glad you guys like the updates to the font.  It ended up looking much better in motion than even i thought it would even though i designed it and asked ian to implement it into the bars.

For right now I asked Ian to remove the grade system because right now it doesn't fit aesthetically to the rest of the SP.  I would rather not have the grade system between matches but we have to figure out if it will eventually be possible to have the grade system on the winner screen.  But that's a thing for the future.

Well I didn't know that everyone wanted everything aligned and separated.  The reason they are currently made as sheets its because it's a lot easier to make the conversions on a massive scale than one by one.  Ian has also found a program that will separate the sprites into individual images then we can zip them.  We just have to see if that program actually works.  Otherwise i have to separate them myself....... But i can't even do that until we finish editing the sprites correctly.

We are working on the main menu design and the select screen right now and i will show a few concepts so we can have you guys share your opinions with us since we are having some trouble deciding on a design.

Nameless CVS
Because of his original pallet and design he will need a lot of work to make him look right in the CVS style but he would be an awesome addition to the roster.

Here is Athena, suprisingly her style in KOF XI is already similar to CVS its just that she needed to be resized and the lightest color scale has to be more dominate in the sprite.  As an example the lightest purple in her hair should be much more dominant and then the next shade should be just a transition color between that and the darker shade.

B.Hatter

I think the problem you are running into is that you are trying too hard to match the sprites i converted into exactly CVS style terry. 
The sprites really don't need much work its just that i don't have the time to do them all myself.  Really all he needs is to have his outlines cleaned up and the shadows can easily made to look like CVS.  The sprite doesn't need to have the exact number of colors like in CVS.  That was a limitation of the the game but that isn't a problem in mugen.  plus having the colors separated makes it easier to make sweet unique pallets for the character.  thats why i kept the colors separated like the gloves and such.  I also want to keep the shadows on his shirt and arms because it give the sprite shape.  I'll give you an example below and i would like to ask everyone here if they think my style is better to see which style we should continue in. 

the first one is just the converted sprite without clean up, the next is my updated one and the last one is the one you made.



We could ask metal warrior but those post are more than 2 years old so i don't think he is making them now.

@Ren2k
Yes that method would work for any sprite style i just have to figure out the conversion scale which wouldn't be too hard.  what did you have in mind?

So here is a KOF style to CVS conversion
It has the right proportion and similar color style but through the process I had to eliminate one layer of color which has to be added to make this work perfectly.  Its a mid tone conversion color that is missing but hopefully someone can complete this sheet as well

Here is another converted sprite sheet this time TERRY BOGARD.  Still not perfect but at least the correct size just needs to be cleaned up. 
@B.Hatter
Great man I'll get on that kensou ASAP and post it here as well.
I totally understand what you mean by not converting everyone because of their strange body proportions when compared to the rest of the cast in CVS style.  So you are right, I was already planning on converting their KOF style to CVS style and I'll show you with another set I already did as a test :D
Oh and I saw your new stage concept and that should be SICK :D

I've said before that I want custom sprites made for this project and one of the ways I want new sprite sheets is by converting the KOFXIII styled sprites down to a CVS size and proportion.  It took 2hrs or so but I finally got one character converted and resized.  This time it was Nest Kyo.  There is a problem that arises from this technique though.  When you down scale the sprites you loose details that make the sprites look clean.  I've shown before that it can be done but I don't have the time to do the cleaning of each character so I'm hoping someone out there can clean up the converted sprites so we can use them to make new characters for this mugen.  It was nice doing sprites again though since that is where I started way back here on mugenguild.

Here is what it should look like when done


Here is the sprite sheet that I converted
Just click the image to get the full version and then save so you can work on it
