:lol

A really cool interview on www.beefjack.com, for those who are interested !
 
Those cloth folds look a bit weird, it's like he either has some huge veins sticking around or one weirdly shaped weiner...

You might want to research a bit for realistic folds and all that.


Edit - Some of the muscles are a bit off as well, but I guess you don't wanna make it perfect either.

It's a little weird as a matter of fact, but you realize it's from the original snk sprite right :)??

Nope didn't know the original snk sprite had those weird folds, but you should change them to make your art just that bit better. As far as I know, you have improved/changed other designs before, I don't know why this should be any different.

Indeed you have a valid argument^^

But for fighter sprites it's a little too much for my skills ! Ideal would be to redraw some sprite from the original kof one, but ffff, so much work and i'm not sure the result will be better than that !

The crashing water is fucking lovely! Also, WORMS!!!

Edit: Are those a few worms underwater I see? :^o

No, but there is one dead worm floating on the surface of the water :)

Ahhh...my eyes, they have mislead me. Still, lovely piece, cant wait to get the full size version.

Just a question to fill my curiosity, but have any modern games moved you the same way some older ones have?

Anything post snes/genesis. What are some of the games that you not only enjoy, but actually get a real "feeling" from?

Ho we're talking about mood and feeling...

Hm, Shenmue i guess, Resident Evil (1 and 4), Worms actually has a great mood, Final Fantasy VII..., Legend of Mana, Parasite Eve (Shimomura lover), SD Gundam G Gen Neo (best game from the PS2 era for me, and i'm ot even into Gundam^^), Vagrant Story and FFT obviously... Real bout, KOF 95 and 96 for the fighters, Wave Race 64 (Dolphin Park, Drake Lake, fucking great mood, magical !!!), Magic Knight Ray Earth on saturn, but especially SAKURA TAISEN (2) !

I must forget a lot...

How come your not an artist for a video game developer yet?

Edit: which got me thinking, do you have any original art?

Well no developer contacted me so it must not be so obvious:lol I'm just doing facebook games. But i couldn't be graphic designer on big games. Only thin i could do is consulting for art direction i guess !!

I'm doing some original art for the game i'm working on at this time, but it's not so easy !

Doubt he could be a concept artist.

Although Orioto would do well in the texture side of things.

Matte painting as well, which is essentially what he's doing ;p

But.. that's not how it works :/
 
Mik2121 said:

I know ^^ That's how things work in MY world :D
I would look for a job if i was a graphic designer, but the "complexity of my skills" let say doesn't allow me to do that really. Those works are for real technicians ! I'm a bad technician, as simple as that. And i don't want to be one.

is someday i can find a way to bring something to a game, well that'll be cool. if the game i'm working on is a success, as i do all art direction of it, maybe i will have a way to bring some projects.
 
Your stuff looks amazing. I could gaze and daydream into that Megaman painting for hours, it looks so neat. I didn't know you had skills like this.

Now I'm almost sorry I made fun of your room in the picture thread.

Almost.

KOFWork03.jpg


from my twitter some hours ago.

Basically i did some pixel art (i'm hardcore now !!) to make a KOF XII version of Mai, then i'll do a high rez version from the sprite after that.

The left hand is horrendous, and the mouth is weird, but that's the best i can do ! I'll blur the hand in the hd version:lol

update : ho shi, direct linking from twipics doesn't work, here is the image
 
orioto said:
I would love to but i didn't find the right project for it yet !

ok ill be on the lookout for it when you decide to do it i know it will look amazing judging from your other work.
 
Pao Pao Cafe its a classic location on SNK history.

It's too much work i fear, i will choose a natural background from 95... :D Korean one or the waterfall i guess... Or maybe the industrial one with the smoke and all that but it would be hard.
 
Ffff the snk art are killing me, the metal slug one, the KOF one, it's just beyond my skills...

I don't really know why but this sonic announcement just depressed me totally.. I don't really know why i continue all that shit actually. It brings nothing to the industry who doesn't give a shit and this is clearly a passion that take too much time, and that will bring me nowhere.. I couldn't do all that if i had a real professional life i guess...

I will have to stop anyway...

Damn it, Sonic ruins everything. >:(
 
why was the announcement so depressing? if sega end up doing good 2d art, surely you could feel that you inspired them with your fantastic paintings of previous sonic games. :D

I don't know how it will look but i think i will feel my art is fucking invisible to them actually :lol If it did inspired them (but i don't think so), they could have, i don't know, send me a nice mail to say hi or something ??

But i guess i should have in first place.
All that is like in a relationship in the end, it's all about who calls first...

this is sega though. they'd never admit that someone else's art inspired them to make a good sonic game :lol they'd sooner say that "it was a response to their fanbase" (who probably saw your art and cried out to sega "MAKE THIS, with your green hill zone one as a particular example :D )

In this case a simple public connection to my art would do them some good for the hype of the game... It's simple logic i don't know. But anyway.

Not that simple actually. I'm enjoying it, but it's too heavy for a simple enjoyment.
I have mucho respecto for your artistic skills and could never do it myself, but I disagree. It really is that simple!

If it's too heavy, then take it slower. For a while there you were pumping them out like mad. (Or at least it seemed that way to me!)

I know I get worn out doing things I enjoy. There are times when I think I never want to see another video game in my life! Sit back, relax, take a chill pill, etc. Try doing one a month instead of one a week (or whatever!!!). Take a break, do something else. There are tons of options here that don't involve quitting.

If the problem, on the other hand, is not that it's too heavy, but actually is that a corporation is not acknowledging you... Then I guess all I have to say it try to be more realistic.

Corporations is run by da money men. We all know what that means. Very few companies acknowledge their community as anything more than consumers of the product they release.
 
Sorry, I think I'm missing something here because I haven't followed the thread for a long time but how does the Sonic announcement relates to the fanarts you did and why are you feeling so down? Did you send your work to Sega?

I'm not doing a drama here guys.. lol I can still post a depressed thing in my thread sometimes:D

The sonic announcement just made me sad, i don't know exactly why.. probably cause i would have like sega to make some little move in my direction. It would have made some sens, and even in term of cash TheOneGuy. To bring a sonic how i imagine it would actually make a lot of people interested again and my picture are being wanked all over the net. It couldn't be a bad thing for them to play the connection, even just for the nice picture...

Maybe i should have contacted them. I even had the idea of doing so, but people told me "nah Sega is a fortress, they will never ever want to let any foreign guy touch a Sonic game etc...". Then even if i wanted, that's not as if i had the good mail to contact the good people.

As for quiting, that's not what i want, but i feel discouraged from time to time... I already slowed the pace a lot if you want to know... I do the one for ign then maybe an other one, that's it every month. And i'm trying to do faster and simpler works that have same feels, cause i'm just tired to struggle on each piece.
 
It's ok ori, I didn't mean to imply you were making some drama, I was just genuinely confused for a moment. :)

I can relate to sometimes feeling discouraged. Hope you find a way to keep doing your work while enjoying it to the fullest, I appreaciate your non gaming related pieces too. I'm cheering for you to get a big professional chance in the near future.
 
Thx

Well i'm trying.. i actually made the graphics of a game played by more than 2,000,000 people on facebook lol.

I think what depress me in the sonic thing is that it's like the end of something. whether it's a beautiful and sumptuous game, and i'll be "hey cool, i will have showed some examples (or not), then now it's not really necessary anymore i guess.. and they did it by themselves, well well.. i can go back in my crappy life without any credit, thx", or it's crappy, then it'll be like "ok they won't give a shit about it anymore, let's forget it..."

I guess that's it.. I see that as a kind of final exam for my work. It's the first game done since i began my serie, i mean the first remake like that.
