Title: Plane sprites
Post by: _player1537 on September 02, 2010, 06:31:57 pm

Hey, could any of the amazing omnimaga spriters create a plane sprite that is facing several degrees, however many frames you want to do.  The sprite will probably be around 24x24, and 16 level greyscale.  I need it for a game that will look quite similar to this: http://www.teagames.com/games/topdog2/play.php

Thanks in advance :)

I'm not sure if this is 16 level, I was drawing it and I lost count, one of the disadvantages of MSPaint.  :P  but check if it is, I'm pretty sure it is...

Nice. However, due to the poor Nspire contrast, wouldn't it be better to add some sort of outline so on a real screen, the sprites will be easier to distinguish from the background? Grayscale stuff tends to blur for a long while on the Nspire compared to other calcs, so much that in gbc4nspire, Calc84 purposely reduced the framerate to make the games playable.

sure!  I also adjusted the wing a bit.

Nice, it looks like the outline is a bit incomplete so far, though. Is it because it's still in the works?

EDIT: I lost x.x

The plane looks squished left to right to me, although that might be the issue of putting it in a 16x16 sprite :(

The reflection line kinda makes it seem divided. Maybe you could close it up near the back, or use a light shade of gray?

Well, I'm not even sure if it's a reflection :P It's that white slanted (about 30°) thing in the middle of the sprite.
