A Nivlacart of Art!
Aethers' Forge
author=Ratty524
You should totally participate in Battledome 5. Those robot designs are awesome!
I haven't really read the topic from the beginning to end (seems like a lot to catch up to) so i am not too sure how that works. Glad you like em though.
Also signing in the middle of an event, from past experience, doesn't do me good most of the time!

author=NeokMaybe because horror relies on immersion and it ain't easy to pull with sprites (not saying impossible though, we have shares of excellent horror games). Definitely need polish to pull it off . It'd be bad if it the jumpscare fall flat.
Why are so many people so anti-horror? Seems like that's consistently coming up as something NOT preferred to be worked on:
Btw, I forgot to Add you to the list of preferred crime partner.
So yeah,you fall into to be highlander-ed list.
author=Zeigfried_McBaconI feel bad for forgetting (mostly) everyone's name tagauthor=AethersWe live. we most certainly live sleeping wind. ;)
Old gang from the IRC chatroom ages ago. If they are still around.
D..did you use another name before too?

author=NeverSilentRm2k3 have a slightly worse position... I think.
Being an XP user, for some reason I get the feeling I would make myself very unpopular if I signed up for this event...
Aethers' Forge
author=AethersI am like, 90% sure now this kind of post is how you tempt life.
Long story short: Real life happens; been away for a few years; decided to got back three month(-ish) ago; life enjoy ironies - so stuff happened soon after and I got pretty occupied. So I was gone, again.
Hopefully things will be ok this time round tho'
No more.
ENTRY 4TH
quick dark souls thingies, cause I can't concentrate enough to do something proper
My old art teacher always said I have no clue how shadows work. Well, she's right.
Is it me or is this armor's mask just get 67% smugger than before?
Aethers' Forge
Entry : 3RD
Technically I failed short a few hours of my self-imposed daily work. Oh well, vidya games did it.
Testing a few basic techniques here and there. To be honest though, it turned out too fancy imo.
Makes a good card-ish thing though, so I guess... it's ok. lineart is too thick (note to self: reduce brush size). Colouring and Shading still a mess though, unfortunately.

Peri's assorted art
Those are neato, especially the tree colors.
Liking the eldrich stuff as well; more since I started reading lovecraft's works recently for the eldrich loresI mean, the more you kno... wait, shit.

Haven't seen you in eons Sleeping wind. Hopefully you'll be around more and you'll be posting more stuff. :D
author=Craze
welcome back. make more robots. make tft cry
Thanks for the warm reception guys.
Anyway, more mechs? sure why not. Can't have enough of 'em myself.
Turns a bit better than I thought. I am not too keen of the yellow color though.
Here's how it's supposed to be in-game
This was planned in Rm2k3 and I thought my idea was pretty neato (who doesn't think his/her ideas neat anyway).
Basically each mechs can only have 1 element installed in their system - which varies from : Fire;Ice;Wind;Elec;Earth - and no more. I'll refrain from explainig the whole paper beat rock equation because pretty much everyone have an idea of how it works anyway.
In addition, there are 3 different physical attribute as well (Slash, pierce, bash); And then There is the whole MLE VS RANGED attack. Which means there are basically 6 attributes (physical) in total, 3 for melee, 3 for ranged. It sounds complicated, but ain't too hard to emulate (in limited way) in Rm2k3.
Since I am fond of 3 playable Heros in battle (4 is a bit busy on the interface and view), I decided to allow the player to have "SUPPORT" units. This way, it allows the player to mix and match skills as they please. LAstly, the squad system also adds bonuses to stat depending on who you pair up with.
In short, the system was made to prevent slugfest because the player only focused on one element/attribute (you could, and that would mean huge bonuses to those stat/attribute).
In the end, I decided to go with CBS to make it much interesting and I admit, CBS does appeal more to me. Though using RM2k3 to make a CBS does sound painful... alas I am not sure I can handle complex programming language aside from the easy to access rm2k3 nor using pre made script (because well... things I made myself are easier for me to understand and fix. I think I get the basic, but to actually write 'em? too tough for the current me).
That's another story though.

Double Posting cause I am on a roll and this is MY thread (mods, take note). YEAAAHH
don't hurt me, I was foolish!
Let's start with something simple.
Meet MCMain O'Character (not real name). This guy is suppose to be the main character of a game I am working on (HAhaha, I can't even write this without laughing. Imagine it, WORKING!).
Anyway, he's pretty rad I'd say. Made a nice sprite too but I wasn't sure why I chose purple as the scarf color. Also I don't want to ruin TFT's magnum opus by competing with his purple scarf thing on everyone (I know I am going to winif when I released my game).
Truth: It gets strange when you are suppose to be a non "chosen one" - you are a mere knight, not even a particularly high ranking one - and you have custom armor/scarf (there must be a rule against that in most uniformed organization). THEN it gets weirder when you are suppose to be relaxing/sleeping/bathing with the helmet on.
I dunno, sometimes it irked me, but I am willing to use suspension of disbelief argument though. It's a game.
Sadly I don't think I can make that hueg eyes goofy look for everyone. Just... not good enough to make em' look too different ok.
As for the project this is a view of it :
(sorry, I kinda thought it would be cool to use black BG. Expect more inane stuff like this)
In short, it is a mecha game a'la Vanguard Bandits Vanguard Bandits or Masou Kishin. You have a bunch of pilots, and as you progress, you obtain more Mechs or Steel Frames as I called them (wait, I am not even sure that's their name. Might need my old design document).
I had idea about having 20 ish frames for 8 ish party member so you can swap 'em as you pleased. But that itself it overly ambitious methink. Not to mention specialization and how it detract character or special mechs uniqueness. I mean, come on, when you get ultima weapon; even if you are going to use that broken stick you got at the beginning of the game (because you know, low level challenge is a thing); you sure ain't gonna use that third or fourth sword you picked up along in the middle (that is... probably iron sword and steel sword respectively).
As for customization per parts, yeah, showpictures count probably shoot to the roof. Still thinking of it sometimes though.
Anyway, that idea was messed up because of the amount of time needed to sprite them (but I did make a standardized "base" though!) like this
Except that big = terrible in Rm2k3. So it's smaller and less quality. A good thing actually! but still painful to make (also less detailed. Not sure I liked this).

There you go, a slow start, but good enough I guess.
Stay tuned to nextmonth oh wait shit, I mean time!

Aethers' Forge
Greetings and welcome to Aethers' Forge - pretty much where I am going to post my art drawing... stuff.
My name is Aethers (was s_w in case of confusion) and I am yer host. Anyway, I was never good with intro, so here's a short faqs:
Yer a stranger to me! Tell me bout yerself, sonny!
I am an old lurker/member in here but has been inactive for ages. Long story short: Real life happens; been away for a few years; decided to got back three month(-ish) ago; life enjoy ironies - so stuff happened soon after and I got pretty occupied. So I was gone, again.
Hopefully things will be ok this time round tho'
Hot dang! I didn't ask fer' yer life story. So what is this thread about?
Recently I start to think about improving my drawing skill again after being absent for so many years - the usual, colouring (which I am terrible at) and pixel (feels awkward after didn't do it proper for a long while). While I was wondering about the best way to doing it, I remembered the old daily art thread and how it helpedreally? me in the past so I want to try something similar again.
Ahoy! That doesn't explain anything ya know!
Basically, this thread is going to be updated daily..ish -'cause I am realistic- but hopefully pretty frequent. As for the content, I decided to share some designs from my list of it-will-be-done-when-it-is-done games, some games I fancy and whatever else crossed my mind I guess.
I figured while I would feel much easier to talk about, get my stuff organized, get me inspired periodically, maybe share some ideas with the others, get feedbacks (maybe)no, really, please don't hold back and comment! It's lonely here, wait shit, that's creepy. You know, fun stuff and magic.
Mah Boi, you are threading on thin ice here!
Yeah, I know, artist and commitment right? Good thing I ain't one. HAHAHAHA
Yer pretty full of yerself kiddo, why I oughta...
I know I ain't that great of anartist doodler, but hopefully I'll get better as this thread goes on and can leave some good impression on ya' all. As for the rest of us the more cynical sort, you know, even if this thread is gonna be a friggin trainwreck, let's watch the fireworks together.
That ain't the way to handle the sword, boy. Here's how you do it
Yep, if anyone wanted to help me with my sub par works, feel free to point out your observations. I do apologize in advance because I might get lazy about doing re-touches (most of these are going to be sketches/scraps!) but I will keep it in mind for future stuff tho'. I short, if you wanna show me how it's done, feel free to hurt my feelings. You meanie.
Min maxing shouldn't be allowed. In fact, I think the player should be deprived of any luxuries. Keep 'em weak and on their toes, and when they least expect it, you give 'em the ol' good guillotine. And they'll love it! cause it's CHALLENGING their reflexes!
Feel free to talk about gaming stuff here too when it is relevant (ex, I posted some designwords words words or talk about games). Just... if it's too derailing, try using PM or spoiler tag (is it working now?)
Anyway, enjoy.
