Nicely done. I've only seen adds n' stuff for that game but AFAIK you got the style down perfect.

BTW, this "idle" animation would be perfect as a charge-up stance when activating a Distortion Drive/Mystic Arte/etc.

Nice pixels! The animation flows really nicely.
The Scott Pilgrim game looks pretty cool on a side note.

Looks a lot like Paul Robertson indeed. That guy is probably my favorite pixel animator in the UNIVERSE!

Ditto! That movie he made, the Kings of Power 4 Billion% really cemented my respect for the guy

Kings of Power 4 Billion Percent was unbelievably awesome!! It even inspired me to name one of my really old fictional bands "Kings of Awesome 8 Trillion Percent"

You are already a pretty damn awesome pixel artist. >_> You wanna help me make a fighting game?

Hero-in-Pixels In reply to Nironan12 [2010-08-22 17:50:18 +0000 UTC]

Sure! What kind though? (like street fighter or a beat em' up, ect)

Nironan12 In reply to Hero-in-Pixels [2010-08-22 20:01:32 +0000 UTC]

I think it would be most like street fighter. With super combos, ultra combos, health bars, all that jazz.

I hate Paul's pixel style.

That being said, this isn't bad, but it suffers all of the problems that Paul's work does.

Hero-in-Pixels In reply to TyvonnosaurusRex [2010-08-21 09:19:58 +0000 UTC]

Dawwww I love his work! But then again, personal preference lol
May I ask though, what don't you like about his style?

TyvonnosaurusRex In reply to Hero-in-Pixels [2010-08-21 10:50:37 +0000 UTC]

Paul uses a lot of amateur techniques and bad shading in a lot of his works, which is hidden behind above-average animation.

You know, the guy who did the Scott Pilgrim Game graphics has a dA account. I'm sure you already knew this though, haha. Great animation, but he moves a little quick.

Hero-in-Pixels In reply to UberLoser [2010-08-21 06:19:09 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah ^^ I don't think he goes on anymore, he's on Mechafetus though. Oh I made him move quick because on slower playback its looks a little choppy
