Seymour FFX

[OZ]

I was thinking about making Seymour from FFX,
and I was pondering who I could use as a base model.

Everything I could think of would take some heavy editing, but that's half the fun.

My first ideas were Igniz, or perhaps Setsuna.
I'm not sure if they'll work.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Here is an image of Seymour.

Duo Lon would be a good base

[OZ]

I didn't think of that.
The clothes(and the fingers) would be quite appropriate.
I'll go check it out.

Thank you.

Amakusa?

[c00p]

Duo Lon would be a good base

I'm wondering how I didn't think of these.


Anyways, that is another great suggestion.

I'm not sure if Seymour's outfit was quite as bulky,
but it certainly is the same style of robe.

Duo Lon would be a good base

Amakusa?

I'd say frankensprite with the two. They're both good bases going by the image provided.

[OZ]

I'll probably do some experimenting.

Duo Lon's face and sleeves.
Amakusa's robe bottom.

Thanks again for the suggestions.

What about Zankuro for the chest part? You can make him thiner . . .

mmm . . . maybe zankuro is a bit rude for this guy style

[OZ]

He looks a little...brutal.


Anyway, I piddled around with the sprites a little, and I made a rough model.

The search for legs was fruitless.
Amakusa was a little to bulky, and his stance was to awkward to really use.

So for the moment, I just made some custom legs, which I know will complicate things.

His skin is too white, also shading is bad.

[OZ]

I'll develop on shading once I've decided on a final outline.
It does need work as it is.

His skin is too white

Seymour is pretty pale...

WTH? And The Man?

Anyway, I'm curious. Is your goal to make your own art (wanna draw him, sprite him, code him, etc.)? Or just fulfilling your ideas? you know, make it happen?

*Sorry if I wasn't understandable, the translations of my thoughts always lack accuracy (too many senses per term in the English language). Traduttore, traditore.

[OZ]

I understood you fine.

The Man?
He's going fine.
I'm having a little trouble coding some of his specials, but there is still progress.

I've shown a couple updates on Marquis' forum relating to The Man.


And the current project with Seymour was kind of just on a whim.
I was thinking about Seymour for some reason, and I decided I'd try to make a Seymour sprite, if nothing else, to just take him one step closer to Mugen.

Perhaps when I come to a resting place with The Man, I'll work on a Seymour character.
Or if someone wanted to make a Seymour character, I could just sprite it.

Nothing's set in stone.

What have you done so far?

[OZ]

What have you done so far?

On what?

[Spoonman]

1) On Topic: On Seymour.
2) Obviously no coding done, so: On spriting.

On Seymour's sprites, dude.

In case you decide to hand-draw all the sprites, I could give you very helpful tools. Want an example of how this tools help?

[OZ]

I wasn't sure if you were talking about the man or Seymour. 

On topic:

I definantly haven't done any coding.
All I have done regarding this project is on this page.

(Of course I've brainstormed some attack possibilities, but that really isn't important at the moment.)

Of course I am always open to any suggestions.


(On the topic of drawing: I do enjoy drawing and I'm pretty good at it, but I have very little skill or talent when it comes to shading and coloring. As a result, most of my pictures remain black and white.)

[Rote Zaungast]

only thing you did well on the sprite was the signs on the robe...not to mention that doesn't need improving

his head should be more standing than duolon's, hair should be longer...look where it's reaching near the arm


work on the upper body more first (clothes, chest, face...)

[OZ]

I'm trying to give him a neck.
