I don't know if they are in CVS Style, but..

           i used no base for this guys, hope u like it

[Jdplayer]

I'm actually somewhat impressed by this one (though the claws need work).

Guy, you may have jumped the gun a little. You jumped onto adding Asura's honestly convoluted detailing and lines before you had fully worked out his proportions. His left arm and leg are noticeably thinner than the right versions. Light source for this style comes from above in this style; Asura's lighting seems to be coming from in front. Not sure if it was the result of the program you are using or uploading issues, but this sprite also suffers from excessive colors; namely, he is clocking in at over 80 colors in this image.


I'll spot you a torso and the better part of a right arm as an example.

Yes thats right, by the way it tooks me along 3 days doing the sprite, and yeah watching your tutorial I was trying to do the shadows, and the programs that I use for these are Photoshop CS4 to trace the lines from his original design, then fill the colors, then I use mspaint to reduce the image to a CVS style using another to do his own scale, but yeah thanks for helping me with your tutorials Rolento, Asura looks great you're awesome XD!!!!

[Rolento]

Using the pencil tool inside of CS4 should suffice to the detail work. Just make sure that you turn off any anti-aliasing that might be active with either that or the fill tool, could explain extra colors.

<- 4 colors too many for the 16 color limit, but it starts to get messy at around that point.

[Guy Armando]

So you have a PS3, don't ya 

[Artchell]

CvS Zealot from RE4, goes with Diepods merchant

[Rolento]

So you have a PS3, don't ya 

While the answer is yes, I actually pulled up some footage from youtube for quick reference.

Diepod & Artchell: Not too shabby at all.

[Guy Armando]

Wow, yeah now I understand, my problem was to close the colors to the right so here this is Norton and Me!

[The Aboriginal One]

To me, the shading is still off. it looks like it has about 3 light sources on Rick.

[Guy Armando]

Sorry man, but he have 3 colors in his jacket and legs

[Diepod]

Sorry man, but he have 3 colors in his jacket and legs

Thats not what he said. He meant rick seems to have LIGHT coming from several different angles. That is not how a CvS sprite should look. He should look as if hes lit from above.

This may be of some use to people here.

One question, what is that guy doing?

[Karasai]

[Jmorphman]

That really doesn't look anything like an uppercut type attack.

Nor is it really CvS either.

[Markpachi]

Oh, carry on.

That really doesn't look anything like an uppercut type attack.

Maybe it lacks a few sprites, that's why it didn't look like an uppercut.

Nor is it really CvS either.

I see that the light source is somewhat, correct. Is it because of the scale?

[Karasai]

Iori's has around 8 or 9 frames while mine has 6.

I'll edit it soon.
