My first attempt to make a human (ever..) right now I'm just trying to get the proportions right.



I used this picture as a reference(don't know if it's spelled like that).

Note: I made the head wider then the reference head.

Any critique?

your sprites shoulders are too close look at the reference the shoulders are further apart.

Give 'em hips and shoulders, man! D: Once you add hips, mess around with the arms.

Also, what body type are you hoping for? Are you going for stylized or realistic?

Good luck, though! XD

Uh what is stylized?

Edit: I added 'meat' to his body

Stylized is...like anime, chibi, stuff like that. Realistic is straight from life, while stylized... Well, maybe the head is bigger than it is normally, or the waist is really thin on a girl, or the legs and arms are short, or even the same size.

*Isn't sure that's the best explanation*

Instead of giving him a waist, give him more of an upper body. 'Cause it is a guy, right?

Hey there Ameiki,

I am not sure whether what the other posters are saying is making any sense to you.  I think what they are trying to tell you is that your guy is not proportioned correctly.  This is an edit I did of your guy.  Its probably not perfect but hopefully it helps you out.  Keep it up!

Jack
