I'm a Duck "MOO"
Hi I am new to WAD making but here Is my First WIP WAD, Shade-DenMak!
I am using the same method as SSNTails (I think that's his name)
I am drawing each frame to make it perfect!
I don't care how long it takes to make this WAD
I just want to make it!
Here are a few Images of what's been made already:

I think I am going to enjoy the SRB2 Forums! ^^

Welcome to SRB2! I love your style! 1 question before the whole wad is done. Is it in SRB2 Palette? Nice shading though! Keep up the good work.
 
In the sprite, his shoes/legs look connected, you should make them a bit farther apart from each other, I think it'll fix that.
 
Um, am I the only one who noticed it is to large? When it should be 72x72 or lower?
 
I appreciate that although you are a new user, you are one of the few who actually have shading knowledge and things like that. You remind me a lot like Virt the Fox for some reason though...
Anyways, the sprites need some work though.
If you haven't noticed, every sprite is a rotation of 1 pose and should be like that. Your Standing Pose sprites are a bit iffy on straightness but that can be fixed.
I'd do something to your sprites but I'm too lazy SO... Good Luck! :P
 
Well, it's incredibly lopsided. For front-view frames, draw 1 half of it, then flip it. If your character is asymmetrical, draw the asymmetrical features seperately and then in Paint.NET, attatch them.
 
Thanks guys!
And I'll fix the the shoes and poses
And WEREHOG it is in the Palette
And do you really like my style?
Well anyway I am redrawing at home most of the sprites
I've got a couple new Jump and Running Sprites but they're not finished
I hope everyone will play this WAD when I am done! ^^
By the way Shade isn't overpowered in SRB2 he only has Spindash and Homing Attack.
 
Who's Nice, Me? or Shade?
(Probably a stupid question)

Sorry for the double post but I just realised that only Shade's Skin is in the Pallete!
I'll go fix it.....
 
Well, it's definetly good for a start, here's a list of things you could improve on:

- It's a tad big, try making the sprite fit in a 70x70 image.
- The shading could be improved on
- Try making it symmetrical

Otherwise, it's pretty decent. Keep it up.
 
I was playing around with the first sprite a bit and I got the full palette and fixed the symetrical prob (Don't know if I completley fixed it)

And I am not all to good a resizing so here:

It doesn't look to good does it? -.-
And thanks! I am glad you guys like this
From all the forums I have gone to
They all hated my sprites that I made on the computer
But I guess people like my drawings then
And that makes me so happy! ^^
 
The Spikes that covers most of his muzzle
Is correct on that last frame
It's because they are really pointy and they face forwards
But it's ok we make mistakes! ^^
 
He was talking about the user who posted this topic.

The proportions are way off, and the design of the character seems strange to me, but other than that, I guess it's okay.
 
Thank you ThunderNova I will try to fix that
And guys I am giving him spindash and homing attack
Is it too overpowered? /:P
 
Homing Attack is somewhat busted, you should just use another ability. Or if someone would like to help you, you could get a soc'd ability.
