What's the best character size for Graal among these?
 

Assuming of course the tiles were made to match

hm i guess that skeleton kind of fits with the size

dude...the sanstrata ones :)

That all depends on the server, and I think Zero gave proof of that with Atexia, the models are like, tiny but still look quite cool.

Ugh the doods on B and D look so nice man...

But B seems to fit in Graal more. Then again it depends on the tileset too.

C could be really nice for a diablo-like server!

Wow, I love the animations. Very fluent.
I would go for either b or c for Graal. To me, A seems a little too small and would look like a Gameboy game xD and D looks too large, although, could work well if a server was made to fit..

B personally.

C makes me laugh because it looks like the guys strutting his stuff around.

Any of the will work good if you proportion them right with the tileset. But either way, I usually work with the same size as B, so I say that's probably your best bet. The bigger you make them, the more room you have to fill, and with animation involved, you're just setting yourself up.

I think everything except D works. Since Graal doesnt have a set screen size, and D is a bit big for Graal's standard one ;)

on the other hand...A would be nice too...!

If you're playing on a high resolution, full screen, then I don't see how D could be a problem. :pluffy:

Well, some people cant, thats the problem.

It all depends on how you proportion you're tileset really. If you make small tiles, than obviously a small body will go with it and vice-versa. But I personally think that the skeletal frame in D would be a nice sized body to work with.

I know, just putting it out there...

holy jizz.....your a god! That stuff ROCKS

i would think the zone graphics, or the ones that are like diablo.

lol

Wait....you MADE THOSE?! I thought you were just showing some FF sprites or something

A, C and D are his, B body armor and design is his.

B and C fit most for graal but i love D, gj

........

Omg!

LET ME MARRY YOU!!!
Godly graphics!

some of them are really sketchy and no AA or some other shading :) i dont think its godly...the concept is nice yes

This Dude Is The Best Graphic Artist Ive Seen Since A Noob With A Image Generator Program!!!

because youre only in graal :)

Ay Im A 12 Year Old Hockey Player

yeah pretty much :)


anyways yeah ive made all those... c was actually the first custom body walk cycle ive ever made...hrm...how many years ago was that? i dont know, everything there is pretty old.

i guess if i really wanted the best comparison i guess i could have made something from scratch in each of the different sizes lol but that just seems rediculous

anyways i was looking at it and D is a little misleading...
the top and bottom are actually different sizes, i didnt bother to check before i posted....

and i think i like the bottom row of that one best

With the right tileset and stuff D would be insane. :D

Any of them, with the correct tileset :p

They're all really good ^^

Ah, now that you mention it I like that one better now. :]

I beg to differ. I don't just frequent Graal when it comes to pixelart and I think he's damn good. Perhaps Godly is an overstatement, but he has a lot of skill. I've seen a lot of his work that isn't posted here, and he has the skill that isn't shown here(loved his floating island...).
The whole point that he only looks good because this is Graal is a moot point, because he doesn't need Graal to make him look good. Not like it matters telling you, because we all know everyone isn't Godly at art when you're around to be compared to!

Lol Dusty...don't be funny :)

God your an ass...

It always seems to boil down to this...one individual being an over-egotistical and eccentric bell end to be put frank.
Why can't we stick to the topic, not put down peoples comments towards the first poster. If someone thinks he's Godly, it's their opinion, it could be many others' opinions but it does not need to be justified by another who does not think the same.

Just stick to the God damn topic and keep your thoughts to yourself unless productive.

That's my two pence...or cents if you're American. :)

pence ftw

And on that note, the original poster, Alarid, did'nt actually say he was godly, it was a few other people including myself lol. But he is godly x-x In general pixel art case.

I love those super sprites!

No, hes an ass for mentioning my past

You should redo C so that it's walking animation is like the one on D. Then C would be f***ing hot. Either way, I still vote C.

B.

in fact i was one of them arguing against taking it so far..ha..
check out a good dedicated pixel art community sometime and you people will be blown away :o

not to say i dont have any confidence in my skill, i think ive got a healthy realistic level of modesty
but thank you :)



hmm i guess i'm kind of going against the vote here...but maybe i will go d...
d sized using the arms and upper body from A resized and throwing the legs on from D since..well..i love em.
graphical surgury in progress

edit: crap..hmm... i already took note that the hips could use some work and the legs get glitchy somewhere along the way but i never noticed how short and stubby the arms look....they should go down a bit further than that.. rats..

edit 2: and..once again i fail to stick with the birds eye perspective..

*shrug* i might as well keep you updated
(lol once again right after posting i notice a lot of little things that bug me)
