Mike SF1 -Enhanced-

#1 July 15, 2014, 06:31:23 pm

Sooo here is the new character I'm working on this summer.
Mike from Street Fighter One based on David Bazbar sprites
(http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/joe-mike-lee-retsu-geki-139549.0.html)

First attempt on the stance and walk anims (lots of imperfections...) :

Punches :

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

Crouchs :

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

I'm thinking of using Heavy D's voice...
Moves will be inspired by Balrog, Dudley and Heavy D.
I will post progress here.
Any advices?

Update 14.08.07 :
Sorry guys, I have completely lost my motivation on this one. I have reached my limits with thoses sprites. It's like drawing something knowing that the result will be bad.
All I've done is right there :

I hope someone would take over this Mike.
(This topic should go in the sprites project cat.)

this looks nice, but i got a question: have you got permission from david_bazbar to use his sprites?(i'm worried about this since chuchoryu said he doesn't had permission).
PS: The Stance is too solid.

You don't need it. It wasn't that Chuchoryu didn't have permission, it's that he didn't even credit him at all.

The animations look nice for a first attempt. What style of gameplay will Mike have? CVS?

I think it will be his mvc gameplay style, which is very nice.

David left all his sprites as open source, anyone can use them (about Chuchoryu, what JNP said). Wow, those fixes on Mike look awesome, Duracelleur

keep it up!!

Thank you, we will finally be able to forget about Chuchoryu's WEIRD version.

Are these the final animations? They do not have any force or realistic movement.
There are numerous errors in these.
Read this and you should see many of the issues I'm talking about.

Of course not... I'm spriting with my "poor" skills today, and I'm still learning.
Right now I'm doing a first sprites batch. I will try to improve them after that.

Thanks for the tips JNP.

It's fine. We all have to learn somewhere. Most of these will need to be almost completely remade later. Since you are just practicing right now I'd try to add movement in the entire body in your upcoming frames. You also need to practice making frames by using other characters as a base.
Then after that move to trying to make some from scratch.

Practice Practice Practice!

Kiss me, I'm famous!!

I would like to help, but I'm currently booked with Juri, ouchhh!!!

Also, these animations are well done, but there are some things that you could improve, if you don't mind:

- Sleeves: You make it straiht in the arm. try making them a bit curvy, for a more natural look.
- There are some punches that you just move the arm. As this is done for saving time, I'd suggest you a small trick: edit the area next the arm, following the muscle, so it would look like a natural movement

- Abds and back muscles: Of course, these are difficult to do. I'd say look at CvS Joe, Sagat and those from SF/CvS who has their torso and back without a shirt. In this case, I'd suggest you to sprite the shirt as if it were flesh(it would allow you to see things clearer), and once finished, just put a layer over the sheet AND add a colour for making the shirt. Voilà!!

Thanks Felo...
I thought I would move fast with this one but these days my free time has been eaten by RL and work finally.
So I will take my time (like 6 months or a year lol)
