Remake: Giant Squid
Remake: Giant Squid
So I remembered a quick design I made for a Qiant Squid 3 years ago, I remember I was really proud of how it turned out ( the sketch ), but I knew the coloring wasn't good since I didn't know how to texture nor anything : P
Original:
Here's a new version I made today, it's still WIP.. you can tell that left 2 tentacles are far better than the rest of them since I had some problem in my house so I had to finish the rest really quick, and I was under stress.. Also the fins might need color changing, this was just a test : P
Anyway, what do you think about the improvements ?.. Is it worth sheeting this time ?
New:
Outline -
Shaded/Textured (WIP) -

Sick!
Are you going to animate this or is this going to be a NPC?

Re: Remake: Giant Squid
Well I have no idea really..
Giant Squid isn't my monster idea, it's Balthazaars from this topic
Animating it would be a challenge since I'm not a really good animator, and I usually animate only small things like this
But my main issue is that I don't really know much about TMW.. I wonder if I animated the npc, would it actually be used in original The Mana World game, or just in private servers and such ?
And how many frames is a npc supposed to have ?

Re: Remake: Giant Squid
It depends of the animation that you want to introduce, it can be from 3 frames for an eye blinking to 20 frames to something as big as this squid.stava wrote:And how many frames is a npc supposed to have ?

Re: Remake: Giant Squid
it could be used in the main server, if someone had a use for it. I'm sure someone could find somewhere to put it.stava wrote:Well I have no idea really..

Made some fixes on the tentacles
Could I get some critique on the octopus ?

The art itself is good, but you didn't put any light direction.stava wrote:Made some fixes on the tentacles

I can think of a few uses for an NPC or immobile monster like this.
Re: Remake: Giant Squid
I made some water bg so I can post this on PJ
and I usually make the light source coming from infront, but you reminded me that on TMW graphics light source doesn't come from front, but is slightly angled ?

Doesn't look too out of place in the desert, but it could use some color adjustments to fit in a little better. (What map is this intended to be in?)

Re: Remake: Giant Squid
I think those tiles are now officially beach. New desert tiles are being worked on.
Having this as a beach miniboss is one of the ideas I had. It can be used in several places like that.

Re: Remake: Giant Squid
For a mob i wouldn't mind using it in some ponds or by the water for this : http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopi ... 8&start=45 after all part of it will be a leveling area for higher level players and It needs new monsters.
great job so far by the way!

If I see this ingame I might run away crying like a little girl. Just saying.
Re: Remake: Giant Squid
Here's some concept on how it could work
the tentacles would be different npcs that would walk around the giant squid, they'll be protecting the squid
thoughts ?
