New way to edit characters?

[Larz T]

I have a question, is it possible to make a character out of real life pictures like if I take pictures of myself and edit it convert it and all that stuff?

You could take pictures of yourselve in Srb2's 275 frames and edit them. It probally wouldn't end out good.

 

[Mr. Awsome]

It would look ugly, but yeah, But please don't release any characters like that.

Yeah, Mortal Kombat perfected this technology years ago. And frankly, I don't think anyone wants to see that in SRB2.

 

[Larz T]

Could be worth a shot

 

[Yoshi]

No it couldn´t. Trust me.

 

[Eggmanfan]

Using real people as sprites won't work well. It wouldn't be in Srb2's style, The palette probally wouldn't get along with the colors of the clothes,skin,hair,etc. and it would more then likely just look plain ugly

 

[Larz T]

Hmmm... Isn't there an app for the computer (or something) that cartoons the picture?

 

[Dails]

Maybe. But I think it would look very ugly.

 

[Eggmanfan]

This isn't a good idea you should just sprite your own wad.

Only reason I asked because I was curious.

Yes, it is possible.

Should you do it? No. They did a similar thing with a 3D model of Knuckles in 1.09.4 and it was hideous.

When I first saw these WADs, I thought they were just cleverly drawn sprites... I had no idea those were 3D models. o_o
