Description Promised a couple of people a guide long ago, finally got around to it thanks to heat coupled with insomnia. :'D

=] Good luck. Also, I'm trying to respond to your comment on the group page, but DA won't let me. I'm explaining about animation and it's telling me I can't send it because it's spam. Yay.

I was planning to start a thread in the Paid Services section in RMS, but I just remembered that I haven't got any sprites to showcase yet... =_=

Just want to ask, how long is your working time for a sprite? o.o

gaypuff In reply to ishi-kudo [2011-08-15 17:12:04 +0000 UTC]

It really depends on the sprite. But overall I can take a month or more for a mob. Mostly because I can never just work on one thing so I tend to be all over the place.

Anyway... can you suggest a color table and/or palette that would be nice for RO sprites?

gaypuff In reply to ishi-kudo [2011-08-18 18:39:53 +0000 UTC]

I usually just pick the colours off existing RO sprites. =x I can send you some of the official palettes if you like. Note me your e-mail address and I'll send it to you.

Sorry to embarrass you by then, I just wanted to develop my pixel art with your tutorial, more like I'm Brazilian and still do not speak English understand it is difficult to translate?

gaypuff In reply to casspriter [2011-07-17 21:15:59 +0000 UTC]

No problem. I'd have to find someone who speaks Portugese--I don't, so I couldn't translate it, or it wouldn't make any sense. However, you can try and use [link] it's the most precise translator to date.
