First 2 frames of jump forward/up done. 2 more to go.

And 3 hours later I've finished the jump. Good on me, I'm done spriting for today.

Wait. Wat?   

Happy fuckin birthday to me.
Anyway, do you guys think Kyo (KoF) would work as good base?
I was just looking at some really nice gameplay and thought some moves fit Apex.

Maybe only certain moves like his ground punch?

I might use the effects in this thread. I think it has a nice comic book style feel too it. Maybe. Not sure. Still taking a look at other hitsparks.

Jeez, I'm just being a double-posting douchebag.

I tried fixing the back leg, I think it may be less noticeable in-game though so I won't spend a lot of time on it.
And this is me working on the dash. I'm really looking forward to how this is gonna turn out.

I've triple posted here before and none of the shitty forum staff members could do shit

There was also cartoon lightning in there too IMO. Are you sure that cartoon style would fit with your sprites?

I guess we'll find out  :Shieet:

The back leg isnt too noticeable and the jump will be fast enough so its fine

We're all a bunch of semi-elitist douchebags. Welcome to the club Panda  :ILU: 

If anyone wants to see how I work on spriting, here. If only I had smart palleted from the beginning. Next time.

It always trips me out when people use Paint for these things

What why? I think Paint is the only tool to use for spriting. Photoshop, etc., is really unecessary.

Photoshop when you know what you're doing can work fine for spriting. Though, i wouldnt recommend using the most recent version of photoshop since it tends to do a bunch of rasterizing and resizing which gets tedious to work around.

I've heard good things about using Graphics Gale for spriting/pixel art, you might wanna look into it. I have it, I just dunno how to use it yet  :dealwithit: 

Same here, I have Graphics Gale, but I only opened it like once. I use both Paint and PS because I have a Wacom Tablet, and I draw my "characters" first using it. Then I clean it, then re-size it for sprite conversion. Then I import it back to PS for coloring and final touches.

I wouldn't recommend it when you're going to make a full sprite sheet since it'll take like forever.

Meh, I'll stick with paint.

On another note,
Okay, I realize what I ask is a really tall order, but me being the noob to mugen that I am did not realize how fucking palletes worked. I made a mistake in coloring that, while although will not severely hurt the making of palletes, will make it a bit more tedious.
What I am asking though, is that would someone be the greatest mother fucker ever and make a smart pallete for Apex and the sprites he has now. The person would only have to re-color the sprites I've made so far, and in the future I will do the rest.

I am really sorry if I come off as rude asking this, it's sincerely not my intention. No one has to do it either, palletes won't become impossible to make and there will probably still be some very nice ones if the colors stay as is.

So which of these look better as a base for when the dash ends (after the blur part)?
