Chimpo is still working on the sheet. Also he's on enforced afk for a while, so if you're posting things in the hope that he'll see and comment on them, don't bother for a while.

Although I would suggest people don't just stop working on things whilst they wait for him to come back, still plenty of other stuff to get done.

Well, yes, obviously. Not like this project's had a history of that, though. =P

Prove me wrong, people. Get spriting!

But if Chimpo's the art director of this project, wouldn't he expected us to make sprites from SCRATCH. Some of us may not be that experienced when it comes to pixel art. In other words, I think it best that Chimpo either make the sprites himself (the characters sprites that is) or that he make us to the animations of those characters sprites like those Deebs' Moderization projects back at MFZ (you must be a member of the MFS forum to get the point).

You can't really expect one person to do all the sprites then just edit them later once they're done.
If you don't have the skill to start character sprites from scratch have a go at something easier, thats what I do. Making a start on something is better than nothing.

Is it me or are people wanting a more Adventure style Super Sonic? Why, I thought yous were sticking with the old school Sonic as apposed to new age Sonic.

[Aquaslash]

Modern Super Sonic has red eyes and all the quills turned upward. It's not that different from Classic Super Sonic at all, depending on the game you get him from.

Actually there's a few old artworks as well. Though before I dig those up, I'll say the only thing I got against Marc's is that it's a blatant S2 copy paste (or at least looks like it)

Now lesse here



Not the best quality, but it's a ref for a classic Super Sonic

[nineko]

Please use a classic style (Sonic 2/3) for Super Sonic.

Maybe we could use Cinossu's and give him green eyes. (He is supposed to look kinda like a super saiyan.)

[Aquaslash]

Marc's won't fly for the sole reason that it looks straight out of S2, and Chimpo's aiming for something "different".

You'll need to recreate the look, but not that well XD

[Yusuke]

Another thing to note, that seemingly no one noticed about Sonic 2 Super Sonic, is that his arms are beefier than normal Sonic. Just thought I'd point it out

The problem is that I don't know how.

Worth giving it a go, I never tried it before till this project started, what I come up with may not be amazing but it gives people something to work from.
Start with some simple stuff and see how it goes, rings, moniter icons, springs, thats sort of thing

Well, I have plenty of free time the next 4 days so I can try. Can you tell me what programs should I use?

On the Super Sonic discussion someone should post the sprite with the Super Sonic design from S3, just to know how it looks.

[Kamon62]

Seeing as we are so undecided on what we want Super Sonic to look like, I drew some sketches to show everyone exactly what each of the styles actually looks like in full, not just a sprite. I have drawn 3.

-Sonic 2/3 Super Sonic Spikes: The original Hairstyle for Sonic, which I personally thinks is perfect and we shouldn't fiddle with the formula.

-New School Super Sonic Spikes: The spikes used for the Sonic Adventure Super Sonic, also very similar to the style of Shadow's spikes. This is not the Super Sonic Spikes they are using today, but I might draw the latest later.

-Kamon62's Alternative Super Sonic Spikes: My Attempt at something new. I think it looks pretty awesome. I tried to create a happy-medium in which oldschool and new school fans could sit and say 'That is what the Super Sonic I know looks like.'

So what is your opinion on the style we should use?

I just use MSPaint most of the time, nice and simple. Just edit the colour pallet from the start and you can't really go wrong, you'll only be using a few colours so its not like you need all the bells and whistles of a fancy art program.
Just make sure you don't save as a .jpeg
