I present trash compactor MagicPillow!

This looks so much better than the slow one! Especially the hair...even though that's not related at all to the original problem, but now I can't look at the slow one without thinking the hair is wrong. :P
But yeah, I would definitely stick with this one.

It was probably more awkward for her, though.
Why is this the first thing I thought of when I read that?

A few things I made sometime ago:

Bigger versions: Also Jorichi, Becky looks really awesome! I wish I could do such amazing stuff like you always do.

Hey isn't that apple in my mappack...yes, it is...

What's up with the grey/red backgrounds?

jwright159 wrote:What's up with the grey/red backgrounds?

I use a plugin for my editor which allows me to quickly select a frame, insert how many frames, set the size, speed and background color to preview my animation and then save it as a gif. I use puush.me to upload it quickly. It saves me a ton of hassle of going through photoshop to make a gif just for a simple preview like this.
The red border comes from frame outlines I draw to keep the animation centered and easy to select for this feature. It would probably also be easy for the programmer if the sprites are already properly aligned if they were to be used.
So in short; It's the mark of my laziness.

Use RealWorld Paint. It goes fairly quickly without the border/background.

This program is overly complex for spriting and its animation options are extremely limited (I can only select rows and colomns as far as I know). My plugin is quicker, easier and has way more options. I simply do not care about the background because it's just a preview.
If I want a clean gif (like my becky avatar), I can go through the extra time of setting it up in photoshop.

speaking of your avatar: it's still really slow, you should put the fast one there

You're right. Fixed it and also changed it to the one with the moving jacket.

still excited

This one took longer than it should.
Any suggestions for the next one?

Jumping/falling sprite, perhaps? Your animations look really fluid too, nice job. :)

It is great but the hair looks off

true.
The hair should probably be in a constant wave instead of trying to settle. heres a very rough interperataion of the wave

It looks like the hair's going up and down the head in that reference,
you have to remember one end is attached to a point that can't move.

I think the hair looks fine in Jorichi's pixel art.

what 102s trying to say is that as long as she's running the hair should not be going back down to the shoulders like it is
the ref is a little off but its also a stick person

the point is the motion of the hair

i mean i wouldnt know how long hair works my hair is short
im just trying to clarify
am i helping

I know Ren I literally did it in like 15 minutes here's a slightly more corrected one

also nice stick person
reminds me of something by jmtb02

It looks to me like there isn't enough hair, and the curl thing is mysteriously absent.

Seems like I did indeed overlook some things.
I don't really know about this one though. The hair's end don't look that subtle to me.

I changed the frame where the hair goes all the way down, added length and two locks of hair to the end and added the little wick on top, or whatever it's called.
I tried to animate the little thing, but it looks horribly off.
So how's this compared to the last one?

It looks better, but it seems like the hair should be wider to me. Like it should spread out more.

I agree it should appear a little wider. I originally wanted to give it a bit of a "sideview", but that didn't work out as great.

Just added a few pixels to the base of the hair's end though. Is it an improvement?
Anyways, I'm gonna try a jumping sprite now but I can't really think of a nice jumping animation atm...

Are you making a game with her ? Because i'd play it !

I usually sprite with an idea for a game in mind and Becky is no different in that. I'm making these sprites with the idea for a smooth and fast paced platformer.
But I'm no programmer so don't expect it to ever happen. Though like with almost all of my sprites, ideas and projects I'd always be up to team up with a dedicated programmer to make it a reality.

The only problem I've had with all versions of that sprite is that it looks like the lower back part of her head doesn't have any hair attached to it.
As in, the hair is only attached to the top, and flows down normally.
After that, it's really well made!

As soon as I read this I saw what you meant and went to fix it, I just forgot to reply.

Hope that fixed it.

Anyways, I won't be posting all the Becky fixes and new sprites that much anymore, since I don't want to spam this thread with basically the same stuff over and over.
But I will keep you guys informed about Becky stuff.
