Since this involves sprites and only sprites, I'll post it here.

I spent a very long time trying to find a way to make sprites as quick as possible.

Then, I found this. It was in front of me all along.

For a good while, I've been experimenting to find a way to make a frame outta Anime Studio (currently used the V5) and then trace it all over to make the sprite).



Before I use Anime Studio, I first make the frames - 360 views of the characters with SAI and save each piece and give them the transparency for the Studio.

I then put them all together, make the Bones, and make the poses. And lastt but not least... trace!

Here's the result for what I got here with two characters:

Cartoon Guy, in another redesign. Lookin' a lot meaner than  before.

And my character Mona-Lisa, an 1940-esque styled actress who suffers from a split personality: Poor defenseless Mona and slaughtering slaughterer Lisa.

I then use Anime Studio's render and the PC's PrintScreen function to save the sprite. And there! Sprite done!
And with Anime Studio's Bones function, I can do something like this:


Pardon how messy the lovely legs are.

I'm wondering who I shall start with, tho. Hm... which one...

[Toasted Brains]

I think Cartoon Guy should be first.

[MrPr1993]

I was thinking on doing BOTH. Also, because I already made more animations on Mona-Lisa. I might preview them if anyone wants to.

Here's an updated sprite of CG. With better hands.

[DeadAccount_DNI]

looking sweet man!
Also this is a really cool way to make sprites.

[MrPr1993]

Neato! Hm... I wonder what new animations I can make for these two...

Cartoon Guy is, well, cartoony. One of my ideas is that he can change his body parts ala Battletoads.

Mona-Lisa, besides being a rubberhose toon, she has the ability to manipulate ink and can enhance it with her brush. Said ink can be as shark as a blade. Hm...

[Toasted Brains]

How about CG's old techniques? Like his big mallet and ground smash.

[MrPr1993]

Oh yes! And I noticed in his moveset that one of his names is Rocket Punch... sooooo... his hand becomes a rocket robot fist.

[MrPr1993]

Watch as I demonstrate the falling!

[TMC55]

This looks cool, can't wait to see more progress on them

[Toasted Brains]

It should look more fluid on Cartoon Guy's part.

[MrPr1993]

Yeah. I was using KFM's fall as reference for the angle. Perhaps I'll look for more to remodify their falls.

But FIRST. I'm gonna start with the stand animation. Mona-Lisa's won't have one all animated, since she'll stand still while wobbling like a rubberhose cartoon.

From what I was suggested a while ago for CG, I think I'll have him do the thing where he does this: https://youtu.be/JzYMi5wSc7g?t=20 while bouncing.

Forgot to mention about Mona-Lisa's color trick thingy


I might also make some changes to her look too sooner or later.

[Toasted Brains]

BIG
MEATY
CLAWS

[MrPr1993]

Hm. Mighty as well move this thread to the Project one. Somehow.

[MrPr1993]

I have given Mona-Lisa a new look!



The cut long skirt was because Lisa slashed it open for better mobility, but I didn't like how she came out with it. So... I decided to change it. And ended up redesigning her look.

[TMC55]

Hey I was wondering will you be doing this with Danny Phantom as well?

[MrPr1993]

I'm afraid I'll have to put the phantom on hold.



Switched the colors to make it easier for the color switch thing.

[TMC55]

Ok, well these look great  anyway, can't wait to see more progress

[MrPr1993]

Well'p! Since Anime Studio works well for making dem sprites, I'll move this to Projects!

[MrPr1993]

Well! I'm gonna redesign these two slightly soon!

What suggestions anyone has for the two's looks?

Cartoon Guy's pants needs more details, and Mona-Lisa needs to look more of a flapper.

I need references for the flapper!
