+ Chaosian 617 Posted January 11, 2015 The Inn, I take it is for use with a door event? If not, that's pretty confusing... otherwise it's pretty great, good use of RTP. I'm a fan of Alex and Yuji, good quality overall. Alex doesn't have much range for her eyes (if you have them on different layers try experimenting with scaling them, indenting the bottoms of them, or flattening their brows to create variants of your currently existing faces. Diversity is rarely ever a problem. I lean closer to Yuji A than B, because of the posture, hair length, and more classic RTP style of lighting the face.

TheoAllen 830 Posted January 11, 2015 Just let you know that if you want critic, you could use this forum instead of put them in resource showcase. http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/forum/41-the-gallery-critique/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre 829 Posted January 11, 2015 Anywhere goes, really. I'll be glad to do a critique here. In this case, I'll be focusing on the faces since I'm no expert on the tilesets and houses. As Chaosian very accurately pointed out, your main flaw lies in the lack of expressive range on the faces. Given your proportions, the eyes tend to become the central focus of the face, and the lack of variability gives your characters a very one-dimensional, bland feel. The only exception to this is Yuji Set 1, since you've made an effort to constrict the pupils. I've included two references for drawing expressions which you'll find rather useful: This one is based off that dude from Tangled (I forgot his name, forgive me on that). This one is a separate piece that works with a more hybridized style, something more suitable for your pieces with Yuji. You'll notice that in both works, the main emphases, even when there is little mouth variation, lies in the curvature of both eyelids. This lends itself towards more complex emotions like regret and annoyance. Also consider making your eyebrow movements more pronounced. In the case of Alex, work not only with the curvature of the eyes, but the mouth (since the top half of the head is largely obscured by her bangs). Instead of gritting teeth, try full out yelling. On a secondary note, if you're less comfortable with facial variations, I suggest you work with Yuji style 1 instead of 2. As a general rule, start by drawing expressions with a straight-on view of the face before working with side angles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I was going to originally put in a but decided on using events instead. I wanted to have the ability to use a variety of doors instead of one, plus I use the animations so it seemed pointless otherwise. However, if anyone wishes for me to put a door in, I can easily to that~ The facesets are fairly old, but I wanted critic for when I do future ones. Yes, I messed up the Alex one when it came to layers so I agree with what you say. Thanks for the input on Yuji, I prefer the faces for A, but the hair for B so feedback's appreciated Just let you know that if you want critic, you could use this forum instead of put them in resource showcase. http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/forum/41-the-gallery-critique/ Not everything I upload will be fully criticised, as well as some stuff I have/intend to upload will be for free use as well, so I assumed this was the correct place. I don't want to move it, unless it is the wrong place. Thanks for letting me know though, I'll remember that for when I have more "serious" stuff that needs critic Anywhere goes, really.

I understand what you mean The facesets are fairly old (maybe 2 years?) but I still wanted feedback for future ones. I'm not good with facial expressions, but I do see what you mean. Those are great examples (I dont know the guys name either...) Yuji 1 did have better expressions, but I hated the hair - thats why i tried redrawing using references, but the expressions lacked. Thanks for the feedback, I'll be sure to be more expression careful in future facesets, I appreciate your response Edited January 11, 2015 by Takeo212 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre 829 Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) Yuji 1 did have better expressions, but I hated the hair - thats why i tried redrawing using references, but the expressions lacked. I actually preferred Yuji 1's hair. Yuji 2 has hair that looks overly blocky. The former, however, at least has some variation in how the hair naturally curls downwards. If you do want to redo Yuji 1's hair though, start with an origin point, and work your way down using fixed blocks. However, make sure to define it so that there is a natural waviness to each "block" of hair. Edited January 11, 2015 by Spectre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted January 11, 2015 The blocky was to try making it sort of blend with the default Ace facesets so I could use them all together, but I do see the lack of details in there. The new batch I make up should be more detailed, better expressions and tidier overall. Again, thanks for the critic, It's appreciated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted January 17, 2015 Update: Added in template sheets I made incase anyone finds them helpful. Will update more stuff later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Update: Added in some new tiles into the "Templates > Sci-Fi" category that I made for practice. I'll be making more later in the week so I hope to start this topic off soon! Edited May 11, 2015 by Takeo212 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted June 16, 2015 Update: Added 4 windowskins and 4 new battlers. I hope to start making battlers and such in batches that I hope I can start doing monthly. I hope to get this place filled with new content once I get internet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Update: Made a new windowskin: Elegant Lace Border. Was supposed to be an elven style window, but didn't work out to well. Find it under Windows>Elegant Lace Border. Created 2 new sprites to match a couple battlers. Slimes and Mushroom charactersheets can be found under Characters>Monsters with matching battler. Created a Valkyrie Template in XP sized sprites, inspired by Xenoblade. Find it under Characters>People. Currently making sprites for all my current battlers as practice. Feedback is appreciated~ Edited July 2, 2015 by Takeo212 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Update: Sort of. Here's a WIP I drew up as practice since I havent touched my tablet in forever. It's weird after using pixels for so long xD Critic welcome, though this was more for fun. will update later in week with new stuff~ EDIT: Made a chibi too for fun Edited July 6, 2015 by Takeo212 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted August 10, 2015 Made a F2U portrait. It's nothing good, was used as practice. I also found out my contrast is different from alot of computers, so his skin is apparently very red/sunburned. Oops :< Found under Characters>Facesets and Busts This was also originally meant to be a fan art of the Youtuber "Markpilier", but I failed so now he's a F2U OC~ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rikifive 3,411 Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) It's not bad! ~ I liked it! He'd need much bigger muscles to match Mark. xD Nice stuff you have there! Edited August 10, 2015 by Rikifive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was the manly face that made me flop xD And that warfstache. Dang that warfstache. I'll try again during the week, but for now, he can be non-muscle-y and sun burned! Thanks :3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+ Takeo212 1,079 Posted May 1, 2016 Hey guys~ I'm going to be updating this thread quite a bit later tonight with stuff I've been making for practice and such. In the meantime, I was wanting some feedback on some stuff~ What do you want to see in here? I've been practicing tiles and such, and I've been trying to make various content for my game itself that I was going to update later for others to use, but I get kinda clueless when I make random sets for practice so yep. Do you want to maybe see some fantasy sets? Sci-fi sets? Horroresque sets? I'm not amazing at tiles, and so far everything I make it pixel-y, but I want to try make my own "style" of tiles, so I was wanting some ideas before I sit cluelessly infront of my PC thinking of random items xD I'll update the OP later tonight (after work) so all critique/feedback would be appreciated also 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
