Army sprite sheets. [PW] [Pixel Armies/Units]

[Gregah]

I got really inspired to do something too when I saw all yours, so here is my contribution to this thread (all original)

Edit ; I put all the colors in those rows so that I could re-use them easier when I start paint again, curse you paint for removing all the custom colors when you reopen it *shakes fists*
(And I am going to add more types of legs, heads, shoulders and weapons)

Sup, CC please.
This is supposed to be a sort of a religious fanatic army, I'll add more of that type of stuff later. The top guys I've started on, they are like the recruits, sort of like the Imperial Guard. While the other guys are the genetically enhanced soldiers, like the Space Marines. Until I've finished them, the other guys will have to act as both.
And yes, I need to practice my explosions.

Quick deployment pods contain some crates and other thing necessary to start a small base.

Hey they look good for a first attempt, How about making them 3/4 (lightly to one side) and maybe a bit of shading?

I could try to make the shading a bit clearer if that is what you want, right now the shading is only in 4 "layers" on the red pieces, three on green, gray and yellow.
And yeah I'll definiatly try to make them more on to the side, thinking of joining up on these wars you fellas have here :)

Also, I updated it a bit more with some more bulkier soldiers (elite troops I suppose).

(The middle head is a poor attempt at making a human face)

[PhoenixRSA]

Those are really cool.

[Gregah]

[QUOTE=PhoenixRSA;18454489]Those are really cool.[/QUOTE]

Thanks :)

I can't really think of anything you need to do, perhaps those airships, they look kinda bulky and not what you would expect to see coming at you.
And perhaps shaping up those quick deployment pods, not sure what's wrong with them but they look kinda odd.

[PhoenixRSA]

It's probably because they are sorta 3D shaped.

New army, The Khennal. Heavy influenced by FEAR 2. Just started it like 30mins ago while waiting for my bud to arrive.

Looks nice, I think you should change the background color though! :)

I updated my sprite chart, tried to make a rocket launcher but damn that was hard.

needs bigger shoulderpads, needs to have at least the head facing left and right.

Working on making a side view(Since my guys are pretty limited on what the hands and feet can do right now anyway), along with making them taller, and a much more lean figure.
The first is my own try, the second is an edited template.

This is my first attempt at making Armies.
I was hoping on joining in on the next Wars of Pictures so, are these big enough or should i increase the legs more?

[Gregah]

[QUOTE=01271;18469309]needs bigger shoulderpads, needs to have at least the head facing left and right.

Will do, I tried to make them not too oversized but I suppose it looks kinda ridicilous now.
Also will make head facing left and right.

Thanks :)

I tried to make some soldiers sized for PW wars of pictures, but felt that they didnt look ok so I made some sort of alien creatures ;

[img]http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/2590/aliensx.png[/img]
First is some sort of dog-like creature, the second is more of a spider and the third is a worm.

Make an invasion thread in which two people work to fight off your alien horde, controlled by you.

And that's your second army!?
Wow your a born natural! (no sarcasm intended)

That sounds like a fun idea actually, just wondering ; Should I draw the soldiers for those who play, or should I let them do their own army to fight them off? :)

Thanks alot :)
I'm not a newbie with MS paint though, I used to draw alot with MS Paint when I was younger (5-6 years ago).

I added another type of alien now, it's kinda like the dog but the mouth is not visible now and got two "arms" that it can impale humans with now instead, and a thick head with three spikes so that it can ram and damage humans.

Not sure what it it is but I think it looks a tad odd with the front legs imo.

You should give people a female and male template to use and provide that base, almost like the base on the Colony Thread. That way each person only gets one character unless they make a certain agreement with another opposite sex character.... [sp]SEX[/sp]

PM me before you start a thread like this, because I would definitely join.

Lol it all started with Muffin's Rabbit, then my squirrels, and now look, ducks!
Nice job by the way.
Have you tried putting a black outline around them? Sometimes it helps make it look better.

Actually I've been working on these for a long while.

This is just a version 2(3 kinda), they only look like ducks now because brown makes the front arm easy to see.

I'll upload comparisons so you can see my progress.

original, I was going to make an army full of numerous aliens.
[IMG]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/Touchys_Army7.png[/IMG]
Pre-shading version of my updated army, I removed the black outlines because it felt like I was being limited, I needed to make it much more visable now though. I also decided on this magical theme, with some standard tech, no real period they belong in.
[IMG]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/Touchys_Army-_Shading2.png[/IMG]
Shading is now installed, and ms paint base colors aren't used as much.
[IMG]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/Birdmen_V2-WIP3.png[/IMG]
current version, the new view style gives me so much freedom.

[editline]02:41AM[/editline]

Also, fun fact: Birdmen hold their swords backwards, for whatever reason. I like it like that.

Update on my army. Added armored recruit and heavy soldier, aswell as the assault rifle.

I updated the sprite-sheet now, I started out with drawing some sort of base for the characters but uh, I drew some more and made the characters in action poses (one for regular soldiers, two for power-armor soldiers and two for exo-skeleton soldiers).

Edit ; I suppose that you got (well, sort of) the base for the characters on the upper row, but if people would much rather paint their own soldiers for an invasion-thread they are welcome to do so. :)
[img]http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/3854/aliens4.png[/img]

XD! ; I really like those duck-soldiers, but maybe you should put some black lines here and there to really make them stand out? The eyes are their weak spot imo when it comes to how they look, it kind of looks like the eyes of a white shark.

Sesshomaru- ; Those soldiers are nice and I like their weapons, but maybe you should think of adding some more space between those? They look kinda flat if you look at them too, although the visors look really sweet. :)

I'll outline my stuff, see how they look.

You got some great stuff by the way, those aliens look like classic game sprites.

[editline]09:18PM[/editline]

While outlining, I've notice they REALLY do look good.

As for the eyes there is not much I can do with them, without eyes makes the head boring, and they look weird with smaller eyes.

[Sesshomaru-]

My most updated version of my Khennal spritesheet:

Just showing how far I've gotten outlining them. Need some advice on this.

[LieCake]

I like the outlined version more than the other one.
it makes them look like plump ducks instead of anorexic ones.

[Sesshomaru-]

Added sniper soldier and sniper rifle to the Khennal.

Du'urgnan Shock Troopers

WIP

Meant to be a sort of assault force, the big guy is a robot that acts as armor, it will have various weapons that are modifiable and removable, it is used to walk in the normal troops.
On the building side, which I have not started, it will be a heavy industrial and gloomy sort, they will mainly be used for clearing planets and colonizing them.

The troops, jeep, helo, etc ARE mine, just recolored from one of my past sheets that i thought did well

my first army without black outlines :D

[LieCake]

It looks a bit sloppy personally.
The Heli especially.

[DragonSpawn777]

i dont like the heli

according to ty2d2 it looks fine

ima remove it in my next update

and there isn't much to judge by because i basically just started this
