 :edit:
Vargas' sprite needs a little work. Mainly since he's missing the 2nd sprite to his 'wave'.

They're not very original, but I have seen some pretty poorly made attempts at other characters (Like the SP Forces 'red' guy) and I wanna know if I just think they're good because I made them or if they're as lame as any other sprite sheet attempt other people fail at making?
I also have a Vargas sheet which I never put together properly. I might do that a little later.
I also found a half-way decent Cid which I decided to polish up (and replace the sprites I didn't like). It was going pretty good too and for some reason stopped and forgot about it.
(Sigfried's colors don't show though perfectly on a Rom too. The 'last 4 colors' deal. They need to be fixed to adjust for that (and that'll compromise the original sprites appearance a little bit).  I think I had one somewhere but deleted it.)



Also, a little unrelated to my own thread, I'm making a Flash movie that uses FF6 sprites. It'll probably be fun to watch. It's currently what's stopping me from focusing on my own rom hack. Could be a lot of fun. I made a whole bunch of new sprites for Cyan and Sabin so they can fight each other. Here's a preview;

These are all really good, better than some of the custom sprites I made for Pandora's Box (I always thought my base sprites showed through a bit too much).

The only 'real' sprites that need making from scratch are the emotions (angry/scared/laugh) and the battle (ready/dead/fallen/wounded/casting). The rest almost draw themselves. (In fact, they DO draw themselves with FF3se.)

I'll try and finish Cid and post his and Dadaluma/Vargas' sheet I had made. (Dada/Vargas modeled after Sabin since Vargas was kind of training with each other and stuff.)

My Cid looks kind of good. I think I had made much more original sprites for him than any other. His 'battle' sprite I think looks particularly good and that it doesn't match any existing sprite's battle pose. I also have a "Daryl's hair blowing in the wind" .gif I would have used for morphed/Terra if I were able to edit that sprite. I'll put that into my profile picture later to replace my punching-cyan.

You'll have to excuse Vargas' lack of a riding sprite.

My Cid's finished but I won't be able tp upload them for a while.
Editing my sprites into my rom helps me find minor mistakes (which I feel are pretty critical).

Anyone want to suggest my next sprite sheet? It'll be a while before I finish it...
I was thinking Clyde because the one I have, someone else made (Ripped by Ryan### on this sprite website, original art work credit not mentioned), but could use definite touch ups to look more like Shadow.
I was also thinking Maria (Celes' Opera sprite) would look cool or Gau in his suit when he meets his father.
I also have an atrocious Vector Elite sheet that makes me want to do it better.
Other candidates; Zozo-thief, Interceptor (not sure if it's even possible, effectively) or maybe a completely unique piece.
