Title: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 13, 2016, 09:03:33 AM
I noticed I actually like drawing sprites and they dont look too bad so I'm gonna share them with you :)
If you want to, feel free to use any of my sprites for whatever purpose ^^
If you guys need any sprites just ask me :) I'd be happy to help out ^^


(http://img.ourl.ca/trees6.png)Little demonstration:
(http://img.ourl.ca/demo.png)
[spoiler=MORE](http://img.ourl.ca/all-4.png)[/spoiler]
I dont know much about licencing so Im just telling you: It would be nice if you put my name (just 'p2') in the credits (dont have to, its optional) and if you make any money using them, you got to buy me cookies (no way around that!)

*I'm drawing new ones almost every day so I'm also going to edit this post every time and include the new sprits so you won't have to scroll through a thousand posts to find what you're looking for ^^

Edit: 15.09.2016 Added Industrial Complex 1+2 and walrus statue
Edit: 19.09.2016 Added various streets and stuff (for my PocketWalrus game)
Edit: 22.09.2016 Added some more stuff (houses & streets & trees) for PocketWalrus

p2. how did you get the tiles to slot into the 17x17 holes? is it a custom editor or did you draw the black lines by hand??


*Edit*
btw the grass and sand base tiles were made by me.

I did everything by hand xD
I'm not using a special tool, doing it all by hand:

[spoiler=Detailed]
At first I draw the little picture using multiple layers:
(http://img.ourl.ca/how1.png)

Then I use the "chess" layer to see the single 16x16 parts and copy each of them:
(http://img.ourl.ca/how2.png)

Then I take a background picture just like this one:
(http://img.ourl.ca/how3.png)

And copy/paste the stuff on different layers:
(http://img.ourl.ca/how4.png)

Then I already have the pic I upload later.
But to create a demo I then take another background with a chess field on it and copy/paste the parts again:
(http://img.ourl.ca/how5.png)

Hiding the chess layer then I get the demo picture:
(http://img.ourl.ca/how6.png)

Take a look at my first post, it's just so I could have every tree and stuff with different backgrounds :)

It's an industrial complex!!!

Does oh
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 13, 2016, 06:09:58 PM
not all buildings are industrial complexes but all industrial complexes are buildings...
and since buildings and houses are somehow the same... ^^

But I admit: It was ment as a industrial complex for kotu's game (which reminds me I forgot about the weapons factory...) ^^

Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on September 15, 2016, 06:38:40 PM
Wow that looks cool actually. :O I wonder if I could use it in my game if I ever have enough space left? :P I would need to reduce the color depth of course, though. :3=

Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 16, 2016, 09:14:55 AM
@DJ Omnimaga : What color depth (or other special settings) would you need and may I help out with drawing stuff? :)
(I dont really care if only 1 out of 20 pics will be used it's just that I'm bored and dont know what to draw) xD
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on September 16, 2016, 11:18:59 PM
Don't worry, I should be fine regardless of the palette. :) I can use 35 colors at once per sprite but I usually use much less, to avoid having to specify one palette per sprite.

Weapons factory looks good p2. Sorry I ain't been around in a while

no problem ^^ Drew like 40 pics today >.> gonna post them all later xD
you made some progress with the game? :)

By the way @kotu is it me or you have restricted Internet access? When I was in hi school and college several years ago I was never online during weekends nor vacations and I noticed you are never online on Fridays and Saturdays. ???

Anyway I made a 4-color statue that fits in two 24x24 tiles:

Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 19, 2016, 11:07:25 PM
nice ;D looks really great  :thumbsup:
maybe put a few of them at both sides of a path leading to a big walrus temple... with the bigger statue in it and some super rare Walriis to catch like the refrigerator walrii ^.^
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on September 19, 2016, 11:09:42 PM
Yeah that's what I thought. Also for ice temples I could make the statues blue or something. Also the refrigerator Walrii isn't in this game because it's from the 2nd generation. :P

Another idea could be to use the statues for temples where you get badges or something after beating a super boss.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 20, 2016, 07:46:26 AM
Or maybe making it golden as a little trophy for beating a strong walrus trainer? ^^
totally looking forward to finally addign all of the cool stuff  :thumbsup:
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on September 20, 2016, 06:43:02 PM
That could work, or maybe in a city of gold. :P In any case, the statues will be on a separate sprite sheet since I no longer have any color left. :P

Love these new tiles p2 :)  ...... *edit* what's the new project?
And I haven't made much progress with the game lol.... progress might indeed be slow as quite a lot needs to be done and I not always in the mood for programming and stuff... gonna work on the game tutorial section first I think

p2, why do the 3 sprites in the bottom right have lines on them? is it to create some kind of flicker effect??  :ninja:
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2

It's supposed to be a holo-tutorial-walrus ;)
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 22, 2016, 06:43:22 PM
Yess, it's a hologram walrii telling you about the story of the game ;)
these "lines" are semi-transparent white lines so it looks like it's glowing and the rest of it got a little transparency, too (different for each frame) :)
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: kotu on September 22, 2016, 06:50:41 PM
like this?

Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 22, 2016, 06:51:43 PM
yess xD But put it in front of a bright colorful background ;) Then it looks a little bit like gowing xD

Edit: It's GLOWING now growing xD
thx @p4nix xD
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on September 23, 2016, 02:05:17 AM
There is already an hologram Walrii but I like the effect in yours. In the game it will look more like an hologram than a ghost :)
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 23, 2016, 08:21:18 AM
yess I had troubles with the original hologram walrii since it didn't really look like a hologram in bright daylight ^^
(But got to admit mine uses the colorset of the original hologram xD
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on September 23, 2016, 10:24:24 PM
Yeah mine was more noticeable when it appeared in front of other objects. Then you could see the objects through it.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on September 24, 2016, 05:55:03 PM
yess mine would look just stupid on black background while yous looks great in a dark room (starwars imperator style) ^^

*hologram walrus comes by and gives Dudeman313 a cookie*

Actually I'm currently redrawing most of my tiles for PocketWalrus (lets just stick to this name for now until I find a better one) as everything was too small xD
That means you could probably use my house tiles, too, DJ, as I'll redraw them twice the size :)

Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on October 17, 2016, 09:59:45 PM
That happens to me sometimes x.x

Also for the houses @p2 I could use them, although it depends if they fit my style well for the game. I might go with caverns too.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: c4ooo on October 17, 2016, 10:06:04 PM
From what i gather, your talking about pokewalrus? From what i have seen, your using art from many sources, so you might want to make sure the different pixel art drawings fit together style-wise :)
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on November 25, 2016, 07:34:10 AM
Yeah, I meant Pokéwalrus. I think the new houses would fit, but I would probably change some things if used in my game.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on November 25, 2016, 08:10:58 AM
yess, lots of stuff to do, but I'll update this topic as soon as I have all the houses redrawn in higher quality :)
also I plan on adding more different kinds of houses (decicion was made when watching the city in @Sorunome  Reuben3 ^^
here's the low quality ones:
(http://img.codewalr.us/newhouses%20LOW.png)
Also I plan on using the different colored houses in different areas of the map :)
and here a little example of which tiles I need to include and which ones I can simpl copy. I have to go through that process for every new house, so yess, it takes some time xD

Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on November 30, 2016, 12:51:22 PM
little update on my drawings:
I now have the high quality houses (only the red roofed ones are HQ yet) as well as a number of other random stuff needed in my game as well as a small demo pic.

(http://img.codewalr.us/sprites.png) (http://img.codewalr.us/demo2.png)
*the grass is not in use yet and will most likely be redrawn later.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: aetios on November 30, 2016, 01:11:46 PM
That looks great! You might want to make the houses a bit more front view instead of top view.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on November 30, 2016, 01:22:13 PM
O_o
do you know how many hours I already spent on drawing these stupid houses?  :ninja:
Must have been about 20 or 30 hours as I redrew all over and over again... <_<

can you maybe provide an example of how you imagine it?
I did my houses pretty much similar to the ones in Pokemon and Reuben3...

btw I'm no way near done yet in drawing houses... I still have to create the differently colored versions of all house tiles
and draw tiles for the new houses:

The Walrii doesn't seem to fit with the game  :-\
I would suggest  putting more detail into the walrii or simplifying the background.

Post by: p2 on December 04, 2016, 06:49:54 PM
I know... ._.
I thought a lot about making the edges in darker grey instead of black so it fits better into the rest of the game, but I also didnt want to do it because it would mean not useing the original *one and only* walrii :'(

I'm honestly not sure if @DJ Omnimaga as well as all the others listening to the words of the Walrii could ever forgive me, if I did that... :'(
Afterall this entire game is a tribute to the one and only walrus <_<
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p4nix on December 04, 2016, 07:12:47 PM
It would probably already look better if you replace the black outline by some greyish outline...
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: p2 on December 04, 2016, 07:36:03 PM
actually that's exactly what I ment, maybe chose a stupid way to put it into words ^^
I guess I'll give it a try... ._.
Title: Re: Some sprites by p2
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on December 04, 2016, 09:46:25 PM
I personally think the :walrii: fits well. In most SNES games, the characters have more visible outlines and also slightly different art. That way, they stand out from the rest and sprites are easier to distinguish from static map elements.

Ayy, this is awesome!
The HD ones look really good, I definitely prefer them over the older ones (no offense).
It feels very aesthetically pleasing to the eyes.

wow thx this is like the most beautiful compliment I got in a while xD
Glad u like them, took a lot of time drawing them all :ninja:

Is this 'Ayy' a secret reference to MrPoopyButthole from Rick and Morty season 2? ^^
