Waddle Dee Wad, in teh progress

[Jellybones]

Ok, this is my first character wad, but that won't get in the way of it being good. I hope.

. . .

His frames, that are done so far:
Walking sprites, front

More noticeable walking

Walking sprites back and standing stance, from behind

(Normal Pose)

More noticeable walking

He just needs some shading, a more spherical body, arms to the side rather than above him, and a more symmetrical sprite.

Speaking of which, seeing this made me think of something hilarious. Remember Scarfy, that cute thing that if you attempt to swallow it, it becomes a single-eyed hellspawn? It would be quite humorous if someone made a SOC to change every Deton into one of those. I've seen a WAD that did that, except using the Miles Doll (AKA Tails; his creator wanted his name to be Miles, so I call him that. Sue me.).

NOTE: I am NOT requesting it. It was just a thought I had. Again, I am NOT requesting it.

Ok. I recall the arms on his head though.......hmm. Just me. I'll edit the first post in a bit.

Here's a picture I have that you can use as a reference:

I, personally, would save it just in case something happens to this site or your internet access, but I'm the kind of guy that plans ahead, so feel free to disregard that.

 

[Jellybones]

Fatter then I remember. I just edited the first post to be symmetrical. I'll make him fatter now though.

EDIT: You sure you dont like the symmetrical one? =P

 

[Uber Shell]

Well, this is from the animated series, so that might explain that.

When did I say I disliked it? I suggested that you make him symmetrical.

 

[Jellybones]

I guess, he wasn't so fat in the games.

You never said you disliked it, it's just that soon after I posted symmetrical waddle-dee you posted the picture. Maybe bad timing, I guess.

So is symmetrical fine? I figure it needs more shading but I wouldn't know.

 

[Uber Shell]

Sorry, I didn't expect you to make an edit so quickly. I did not mean anything by it.

But I digress. He still needs to be more spherical. Other than that and the shading, he looks fine. You're off to a great start in such a short time!

 

[Jellybones]

Thank you. I'm doing the shading now but I suppose I should make him rounder first. I shall get to that.

EDIT: Just re-did him. He was easier.

 

[Uber Shell]

Wow! Quite an improvement! Just adjust the arms, and it'll be great! Keep it up!

 

[Fawfulfan]

I have a friend who will go GA-GA over this. He LOVES Waddle Dees! Maybe NOW I can convince him to play SRB2...

 

[Jellybones]

Awesome. I'll just lower the arms a bit, then fatten them up.

 

[Chengi]

aww... :3
oh, try to make the outline thinner.

 

[zck2020]

Give him more of a noticeable walking animation. Reshape him to look more like the picture Uber Shell posted. And of course, moar shading. Nice job so far though.

 

[Uber Shell]

Waddle Dee walks the same way as Kirby does, if that helps.

 

[zck2020]

He waddles. *killed*

 

[Uber Shell]

I KNEW someone was going to make a pun like that! I even thought of doing that!

 

[Jellybones]

His walking sprites are more noticeable. I'm working on side ones, as for the picture, I'll try making him fatter without screwing him up.

EDIT: Shading, too. I'll get a lighter color

 

[Jellybones]

Ack, this topic is deing. I'm just letting you all know I'm still doing this...

please tell me it's smexy. More shading, fatter.....

 

[clairebun]

Better, but the black outlining is too thick.
