Badniks & Bosses Art

I don't like the side facing 'face drill', the groves look warped and uneven.

 

A little update just to show the animation



Comments?

None, that's amazing.

 

Lol, I like following the tire tracks around!

That is utter perfection!

Hmmm, I had an idea. Maybe animate his drills? It would make it look a lot more threatening, like a badnik should.

 

That is beautiful Yvan.

Although, regarding rotating drills, I think that should be saved for a later revision.
There's still other badniks that need lovin'

Then again, seeing Vincent's Uber revisions makes me want to bet that Grounder will need more shades to match Sonic

 

Indeed. If anyone is wondering what to do next, just about all of the badniks from EHZ are in need of remastering. The ones contributed over this summer don't match up to the newer guidelines and would have to be redone regardless.

 

Ok I meant to do this last night, but I didn't finish and this past 4-6 hours my connection has been out.

eh... Anyways, this is my I guess "uberized" Buzzer



I'll be honest and say that I feel something is off about it, but I don't want to spend another hours oggling at it trying to figure out what it is so I'm posting it to see what you guys have to say.

 

Fat Yellow Stripe
- OK
Rotate 2° to the Left
- Does that mean clock wise or counter-clock wise?
The Metal Collar Has Color Steps
- *gonk*

Thanks Vince.

 

Coming along nicely indeed Drex. Vincent already hit the main points I believe.

The rocket flame seems really flat, and I'm not certain that will be solved just by adding extra color steps. Effects type art like this presents an opportunity to get creative with organic chaos styling, such as small curls of flame placed 'at random' inside of the flame jet. Of course, they're not really random at all, but taking that little bit of effort adds a great degree of character to the piece!

 

You must not have seen my last attempt at flames.



=P Effects aren't really my thing right now. I'd have to set myself in a completely different mode and practice at that type of style/feel. I was really hoping someone would lend a hand on that part.

 

Speaking of, has there been any recent work on Masher? I remember someone making a start months ago, but since then I've seen nothing

 

Hm as far as I could see, the grabber has not been remastered yet. I'm gonna be able to work on that from around the 25th or 26th of November on. I'd like to try that one.

 

Actually, plasmanuke has been working on grabber for some time now. His work hasn't been approved due to incompletion however, so if you want to take a crack at it, it is still open.

As for Masher, Drex did a take on that one over the summer, and I believe is still in the process of improving it.

 

Someone also started working on a Frasher, might be worth bugging* them to finish it.
*pun intended

 

Oh yeah, ok ... well his looks actually pretty good, so maybe there's something else I should do.
Hm. You know it's kinda hard to really find out what's still undone. The red dots in the DB are not always correct.

But there are explosion sprites and other badniks... maybe Spiny, or Aquis.
