Hello, I started a project yesterday and I'm already panicking... I can't figure out how to make a side view of the main character of the game! I keep scribbling trying to find one that suits it, but I don't know... So any criticism, or tips would be much appreciated, here's the monkey as of now: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/43/monkeyidlefront1.png/">

Something like this:

It's based purely off your monkey, in the same stance. If you wan't some help with design, let me know :) Note: I did not bother with highlight or shading, I'l leave that up to you :P You may also wan't to tweak it a little bit to your liking hehe |

No problem! If i were you, I'd move the ears down on that side view a bit, their too high compared to the front. Other than that, go nuts! shade it the same way you did the other one :)

Alright, do you think this would work? http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/211/monkeyleftidle.png/">
I'm afraid it seems 1) Too flat 2) Too different compared to the original sprite:

It looks good. The reason it looks flat is because it is anidle pose. If you were to animate him walking, you wouldnt see such things.
