Thursday, August 30, 2018 - 10:08
Witam/Hello/Hallo/Bonjour
I am looking for a amator graphic designer who specjalise in 2D PixelArt graphic for my new project "Pan - The Warrior Princess".
Game is for Android devices and it's created by Unit.
The visual style of the game is directed to something like Conan Barbarian mixed with medieval Celts.
The game will be a 2D platform game. Maybe with some open world things.
If you want some more description just send my message or comment. :)
Yours sincerely CyberPunk.
Maybe I can help you ^^
can you provide any sort of examples or screenshots of the style you want?
I mean I have seen the Conan movie, so I have kind of an idea of what you're going for I think ^^
This is what I have on this moment.
For visualisation purpose many sprites in game is from other games or pictures from net.
I thinking maybe something Golden Axe series graphic style.
On this moment in game you can move character, talk with NPC, jump, double jump, fight with sword, die, collect coins. :)
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
Your game looks very good actually!
The english in it not so much, but that can be fixed with time.
What should this "Warrior Princess" look like? I can make a few sketches tonight.
Also keep in mind that I can't do all the art for an entire game for free, but hopefully enough to get you started on the basics ^^
Of course I know you can't do all the art for an entire game for free.
But a few sketches are always something to start with.
I think the Warrior Princess could look like this:
- Blond long hair white young women
- Age 16-20
- She is wearing a one-handed sword
- When she got some power up she get a wooden circular shield
- When she got some power up she can throw chakra
- She wears leather armor with studs
- She weras something like leather skirt
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
ok, let me try something like that to begin with!
What do you think about a style like this for the Warrior Princess?
I think it's good, but do you can do something more like this style?
This game is Volgar the viking.
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
Well, I can try....
this is probably neither the style you want :P
It's good :)
Can you make some sprites when she running and fighting sword?
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
yes. probably.
I know what you're gonna say when you see this :D
but now its nice and smooth
a vertical cross cut animation.
(I know nothing about medieval european swordplay, only Kendo :p)
Walking is fine.
But sword attack...
Maybe when she attac she can grab sword with two hands.
Like on this gif from Golden Axe.
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
And I think she should not sit down during the attack

why do people always specify what they need after I've already finished drawing? If you stated more clearly what you wanted in the beginning it wouldn't have been a problem at all, but constantly having to change everything is.
I think people specify what they need after you draw something because they see what they want or don't want.
It's like describing your dream home.
Example. You would say that you want to have a 2 storey house with a pool.
I will bulid you this house but pool is 5m deep.
You not specify deep of the pool and i don't know what you want.
For you 5m is to deep for me is ideal pool deep.
I work a lot with people who give me programing task's.
I learned during this time that I should ask a lot of questions before start creating a program.
Try this :)
Draw a concept on paper or a computer. So that it takes you as little time as possible. Then ask if the height is right, what colors should you use, etc.
Or just ask for concept art.
Everyone can draw somehow. Some people draw better, others draw worse. But on the basis of this conceptual drawing you can do something.
Yes, you're absolutely right that I should describe it in more detail. But I had the wrong impression that you perfectly know what I would like
And as you have noticed, English is not my native language. Because of this, I am not able to fully describe what I would like you to draw. Questions in this case would be very helpful :)
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
I really appreciate your work. Your work is great. But it is worth noting that the arrangements for creating something will always require changes and corrections. That's how the world was built. People can not communicate the perfect information. Always another person can understand something a little differently.
Yours sincerely CyberPunk
What you are saying is reasonable,but please also understand that since this is a free project, I didn't plan to spend several weeks on it. I also do commissions and they will always have to come first in the queue :P
So if
we could be much better on the way with this project.
I can give the sword animation another go tonight tho ^^
but if you also want that to be changed, you might have to wait a bit for it.
here is a different version, which was thankfully a lot more fun and manageable to draw! The reason why I got a little bit salty earlier was partly because that first sword animation had been very annoying to draw, so yeah.
In any case, a freelance graphic designer can try work and image editing for affordable childrens book illustrators professional services companies, like me. Thank you for sharing these tips.
