that's exactly what I hand in mind. about the rigth hand on smaller objects, hey! c'mon, you can't have it all!

all i could said, however, is that i would eliminate the movement of the hair. just for visual reasons. it looks a bit odd to see his hair moving arround while he is pushing. kinda distracts the viewer and looks unnatural*, In my opinion.

*that's the main reason.

now lets move the pushing back(north)
slaudos!

Hello All,

Sorry that I haven't updated this for a while.
New Job
New House
So that sums up about four months of little
leisure time.
But, I have done some changes and decisions.
And this weekend I might have some time to work
on critiques given to me to show you a faster update.
That was the main reason not to update the WIP. I
think it is better to have time to respond to comments
from the members!

Some decisions I made are based on regular comments
from the members on this board.

1. Usage of limited palette
2. Avoid saturation in games

My earlier objects had a lot of colors in them and many of
them were pretty close to eachother without having an
effect on the other colors.
I have found that you still could use colors that are relatively
close to eachother but have an immense different effect when
working with different other colors in your palette.

At this moment I have reduced my palette to about 44 colors.
(There were about 100+ different colors in all objects)
Keep in mind that I have to make about 150 different objects
so I think I still need a relatively large amount of colors.
Some may think that 32 is the maximum that you should use.
Maybe some of you can give me advices on the chosen ones.


Also I like to hear a verdict on the shirt color. The red color
is introduced the last in the palette as my girlfriend wanted
a red-shirt. It is one of the most saturated colors in my
list and I'm not convinced of keeping it in.
But if you like the red one, I will be reconsidering.

Personally, I like the blue one (no. 2)  the best.

Thanks in advance for all your comments and your patience with
my W.I.P.

SIR! finally you appeared!

on an completly irrelevant topic, if you gave  a face mask to the fifth guy from left to right, you got sub zero :3

I personally like N°2 too. for three main reasons: one, because he's blue. two, because that color gives him a lot of life, yet is saturated enought so it stands out very well agaisnt the surface. and three, because i would hate that my character used a pink kimono D:
