Some of you may rememebr me from before, but I got caught up in a lot of stuff and the project went on hold for awhile. Anywho, here are couple of things I've been working on.

Any crits or suggestions are welcome.

 

First is our hero. On the left is his jumpsuit he will come out of the cave with. On the right is his actual in game outfit afterwards.

 

Here's a red and blue slime. The idea with the blue is an attack where he morphs into a hammer. For the red, we were thinking of an attack where it blows a poisonous bubble out. Both animations could probably use a few more frames for smoothness, but again, these are wips.

 

 

I see what you mean. I really have no idea what I'm doing to be honest. I've done a few other things, but nothing like this before.

Thanks Jalonso. I really respect your opinion and suggestions alot.

Pretty busy this weekend, but there is an update on the hero.

The hero looks real good.
The red blob just cracks me up.
The island looks nice. I notice you're working on a huge game project all alone. For this reason I would not suggest that you alter much. If later you have time then maybe reconsider making the rocky part more realistic by making the rocks point staright down to create the cone rather than these that slope inward. Might be ok if you hang a lot of moss from the grassy top too.

Here's our status bar, along with visible status effects so far. I am considering changing the frozen one a bit more, and th paralyzed one will likely have a small animation, as will the poisoned bubbles.

There actualy was only one jewel on the old hero as well. I took the design for the armor straight from the japanese box art for the game, which was known as God Slayer over there.

Thanks, I'll try that out. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with all of them. I had thought of just being really goofy and making the frozen one have a top hat and scarf.

ya, the scarf while appropriate seems a bit too much. The face says 'cold' without it.

Well, why don't you make the scarf frozen too? Or not.

Maby give the electrocuted guy yellow hair

Couple of tiny updates. If there are any huge glaring problems with these let me know.

Just a question, Is his tabard meant to have different designs, also im loving the floating island and the Purple haired dude

Dammit I missed that >.<

i'd go for black, or maybe an abstract motive. nothing really depicting something.  somehow it's weird to have a dragon in your crotch..

You are doing a great job on this project.

Well, I have to say the one thing I suck at most is drawing backgrounds and landscapes. It transfers over from never drawing those things in traditional mediums either.

the door is terrible, but it is a standard 3/4 view, like secret of mana and the like. I've never done anything like this and it's kiccking my ass.
