Re: Painting like, undefined backgrounds?

The sprite still blends a bit because of the gray color palette, but when I look at the two images side by side I can definitely see that the new sprite stands out better than the first one does. You may want to tweak it a little bit more to improve it, but I would get some others' opinions on how ...

Re: Painting like, undefined backgrounds?

Since I was messing in photoshop to try different workflows for creating character sprites faster and came up with this relatively fast, I will post it here for feedback as well as show it on the background to know if it pops more. this is the new character sprite I made: http://oi67.tinypic.com/24l...

Re: Adaptations

My tip is that you do the project yourself, then present it to see if they want it. If they do, great, if they dont, you can use it as portfolio of your own work for the future. In most cases it will probably be better if you approach them with something already done rather than nothing. They will t...

Re: tips on plotting story for adult visual novel

Well, I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but if you want ideas on your story or how to structure it, I would suggest using the 3 act story structure. If you don't have problems listening to english, I would recommend watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcmiqQ9NpPE Its...

Re: Painting like, undefined backgrounds?

I'm surprised that this was a concern to you - not saying that you're wrong to be thinking about these things, but a fair amount of the VNs that I've played have "messier" background art instead of highly defined art. There are a lot of games I've played that just use filtered photos as b...

Re: Painting like, undefined backgrounds?

On the contrary, I quite like that background, and I don't think it would be distracting. It sets a really nice tone and mood. The only issue I can see arising is that the character sprite blends in too much with the background, but that's more of a lighting/colouring thing rather than a style choi...

Re: Guestbook

I believe I'm supposed to introduce myself here. Im from Spain, and for a long time now I wanted to share my stories in some way. From cinema to comic and even writing, I tried most of these stuff. Since im a jack of all trades more than a master at anything, I find it hard to choose one medium over...

Painting like, undefined backgrounds?

Hi, I'm making a kinetic novel by myself, so making the art really is hard on me since I'm no artist. Hence why I come here to get some of you guys feedback. I'm not very good at making clean, defined art like in most novels out there, instead I tend to go for a painted, messy and more expressive to...

Feedback on first chapter of visual novel

Hi there, I've been wanting to share my stories for a while now. I've been trying different mediums, I even studied cinema and all, and recently got into drawing. Problem is, I'm not really an expert on any of those subjects, so I would like to get some feedback before making more chapters of my sto...
