Wow. That above screenshot looks like I just finished posing my action figures. This is way cool.One thing to nitpick on: That stance you made of the Shredder, which is featured on your avatar: his head seems a little too high, giving the illusion of an elongated neck while being compared to the rest of his sprites.

You made a comparison to his other sprites, its important to note that he's either hunched over or bent in some way in almost every other frame so that's probably where you're getting that impression. Trust me, the neck is far from elongated,its merely more clearly defined and distinguishable due to the negative space more than anything else. I based the pose off of one from the comics:
Ah, I see where that comes from. Sweet deal. Come to think of it, I never read the comics. Also, a palette based off of that stance would be pretty sweet.This project already looks amazing. I can't wait to see more!!Completely random question: are you throwing in a dragon punch style move?? I'm thinking something along the lines of Hayato's MvC2 variant or Cyclops XMvSF variant. Tapping the attack button would warrant further strikes.
It's pretty funny how the Turtles began as fear inducing nightmare fuel... DO YOU FEAR US? to become...PIZZA TIME!!and eventually a badass cool team of heroes in the 2003 series. The original comic, they were nightmare fuel a ton. XD
U're right rukifellth, quite some way TMNT series have passed. 2003's was a badass incarnation, and 2007's was ok. But what's gonna happen with the series soon is gonna destroy the earth. TMNT-aliens by Michael bay. Everyone is frightenedSpoiler, click to toggle visibiltyhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onHtoKkGaoEOntopic: awesome progress Dcat, as always, liked TF winpose and new shredder scaling - it's good he's not that tall now, after all as I remember he was one head taller than turtles. And if I remember correctly Krang was one head or even more taller than Shredder.
Yeah yeah, the Transformers movies was a major disaster for some fans as well. It won't ruin th franchise. It'll be just one incarnation among many.I try to not take things to seriously.
So that is where that stance came from...I knew, I seen him standing like that before. Since someone brought up that stance before and was complaining, about the only thing moving was the middle park of his body...if you look at his right foot..you can see a little flicker there also..so ...just having fun...keep up the great work!
I coded a new attack based on one of those Steel and Bone techniques from Ninja Gaiden.Shredder lunges towards the opponent, if he hits, he plunges his sword into their middle then rips it out.If the opponent blocks the attack Shreder is put into a special penalty state where he's stunned for a bit and the opponent can counter.Currently this attack is QCB + any punch. I'll do 2 other variations with different animations & moveproperties so that each button strength has variety.
In the right context....that could be used to describe what Bay is doing to the franchise....Anyway, good stuff Dcat. This really does look to be promising.

Any suggestions?:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBq4gLt_pUo
Aw that NES winpose just got even more oldschool, even the chorus is in! XDHmmm, name for that move... how about Crotch Chop?... er I mean Trapezoidal Cut?If you know what trapezoidal meens, then you'll find it very punny. Oh btw, here's my current progress on my spriting work:So far, only most of the basics are done, she still needs Hurt poses, Back Dash and a Taunt before all her basics are done...But does anyone recognise her?

I love the orange sword to go with the old school Playmates Toys palette!As far as a name for it goes, I can't offer many intelligent options.But how about "Death before Dishonor," as a bit of an homage to Splinter's final taunt from the first movie?
I think "Death before Dishonor" would fit better for a Hyper Combo... it's to cool a name to use for a special move.

The thought came to me in part because that sword special was sorta a two-phase move: (1) the thrust and (2) the gratuity damage. Hence, (1) Death, then (2) Dishonor. But I'm glad you think it's cool enough to warrant A-List status!
