Ok, so i fixed Eddy. I made her clothes look more realistic and did a few other things. Thanks ^
It's better than the first one! But the legs are still a little weird. Legs don't bend outward like that, and it looks like she's floating.

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

I went kayaking and canoeing for work today and I've absolutely wrecked my arm muscles ;____; I was planning on starting sprites for my VN today but even typing is hard right now. I managed to meet my daily writing goal, but I really want to draw hrgrhgrghrgrh. I hope it gets better soon.

Re: Technical question about writing a script for the game

I don't use Google Docs because my understanding is that Google claims copyright over the things you store in Google Docs. And while I can't imagine that the courts would uphold that claim...the question would be, do you have enough money to beat Google in court if they decide to take your stuff? O...

Re: Technical question about writing a script for the game

I'm also using Twine! For me the biggest concern is that it gets tiring to make new notes all the time. It was mentioned earlier that using Twine can be hard with long stories, and I agree. At the same time, the need to organize a story becomes greater with bigger projects, and Twine's method is exc...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

I quit my job. I've been trying to get in touch with my boss for over a month, but she won't reply to my emails or phone calls. I'm exhausted with this job before I even managed to start it. I hope they process it quickly, let me quit effective immediately, and we can just forget the whole thing hap...

Re: Shout For Joy, Share Your Happiness

Narrowly avoided getting kicked out of school. And on another note, I'm now only 2 classes away from my certificate in Crime Scene Investigation! Oh my! That's really impressive, congratulations! Hmmm... My life's been a bundle of stress, sadness and anxiety the last two months, but I'm starting to...

Re: Alternative to First Person visual novels

I think this is an interesting question. Like you, my writing style is in third person, and I usually prefer that in everything I read. I've never been fond of first person novels, or games. I understand the appeal when it comes to dating sims, that you sort of "are" the character, but I u...

What bugs me just for her face features, probably her eyes...? or mouth I guess it looks belonged to human, maybe you can try experimenting (when you have time) and try change them into something that more.. animal-like? but that's just my preference and opinion!! >< ignore these if it become scary...

Re: Aki's Art ☆ (Noctos)

I'm a bit........ reluctant to post this. I decided to finish the sprite practice from yesterday, and it's tough to realize you're nowhere near where you want to be. There are aspects of it that I like, but I really don't understand how to shade clothes! http://i.imgur.com/fsIOfCv.png I think I'm on...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

Can you do the degree by distance education? Or online? I'm afraid I can't, the lectures are on campus, and they don't offer any online alternatives. (I feel your pain with that crush. I fell in love with this new friend I made last summer. We were really close, and it made me super sad that every ...

Re: Aki's Art ☆ (Noctos)

And let me just start by saying that your art looks gorgeous, your sense of lineart is amazing, that bun looks so clean and smooth, I love it. I actually didnt notice the ears thingy until you have pointed it out. My plan was to make an individual poster for each of the main characters in my VN, bu...

Re: Aki's Art ☆ (Noctos)

Yes hello I am here once more Today I've been practicing sprite making. It's hARD?! Working with really thin lines has me both frustrated and tired. For some reason I seem to exert more energy when the lines are thin. I can't post the sprite here yet, since I need to shade him first (and I need a br...

Re: Confused on description for visual novels...

I agree with trooper6, there's no "right" or "wrong"! In addition to researching other visual novels, I suggest you try out different styles of description for a selection of scenes in your game. You can see how the same scene works with different levels of description, and then ...

Re: Aki's Art ☆ (Noctos)

Today I went to the botanical garden and did some sketching! The last week has been really rainy, and as much as I love that, it's no good for outdoors drawing. Today it was finally sunny, so I took advantage of it and went on a lil trip. Unfortunately it got super windy when I got there. I couldn't...

Re: Last game you played?

I picked up the HD remaster of ffx & ffx-2 and started playing ffx-2. I'm gonna attempt 100 % completion again (since I somehow messed up on the ps2 version ;^; ) Oh, and the last game I played before that was Kingdom Hearts! I cried when I completed it sUE mE
