KOF sprite edits redux

[Some Random Guy]

Got bored so I decided to touch up some sprites I did before. I like how Mai and Yuri are turning out, Kyo (as usual) is causing me problems.




[EDIT] - slight update of Mitsurugi. Not looking forward to drawing his gear or feet for some reason.

I don't like how Mai and Yuri are turning out. Kyo looks fucking great.

[Bastard Mami]

that's interesting, real bout-ish.

Man, I can't win with you.

[Bastard Mami]

try angel

[Some Random Guy]

^Sure.

[Spoonman]

Why do you say that? I love most of your work, but I don't like those sprites. Specially not Yuri. Maybe it's those two frames in particular. Try the same characters, but edit different frames this time.

Edit:

I also said Kyo looks fucking great, in case you didn't notice...

Yuri looks great but maybe a bit too shiny.
Mai could have one more pixel of neck, fixed forearm lengths (her right is too short, left is too long) and her left thigh a bit more outward or something. Also those white skin highlights give it a bit too much of a 1992 feel which I'm not digging (except on the boobs), and her boobs are too large but whatever floats your boat hehe.
Kyo looks great as well, could use a palette tuning.

True.
I was joking around, though. That never seems to translate well in typed form...
Yeah, I'll try some other frames.

Oho! I'll be sure to address these discrepancies. What, not a fan of old school spriting?

[PotS]

Just a bit weird when combined with the cel-shading on the bow and outfit.

[MDI]

I really like how Yuri and Mai look. It seems like Real Bout with a hint of CVS and KoF proportions.

[Real Bastard]

With Yuri, try her CvS Sprite or a different frame from her KOF 11 sprites.

As for Mai, all I got to say is.......

Spoiler (click to show)

If I were you, use her Real Bout Fatal Fury Special Sprites to get a better Mai. It worked for me in the past.

Kyo looks unstiffed. I like how Kusanagi looks there. Try to mess with his KOF 99-2002, his KOF 2003-XII look, and his KOF MI2 as well. Three more outfits for Kyo wouldn't hurt.

[Spoonman]

You changed Kyo, didn't you Street?

[Some Random Guy]

I did. And I changed one more time again.

[Spoonman]

Why? The first one was perfect. Mind posting the three of 'em for comparison?

[c00p]

those are really nice, ii see also that you've changed the "bright" in yuri's legs . . .
But please don't use -white- in the skin, any light brown would work

And i'd like to know the bases . . . kyo cvs, may rb?

[PotS]

I think they're all from KOF, and that Kyo might be based on Shingo's stance.

No dice. I checked my files - no such luck. I tend to delete my stuff as I go along. All I have is a really old version of the sprite. I dunno, I think the new version looks best.



I considered the Mai thing and decided to forego the white all around replace it with a really light (off-white) skin colour.

Yeah, they're based off KOF sprites, with some Real Bout influence and slight Shingo influence on the Kyo sprite.

[inktrebuchet]

i think they are pretty sweet!
