Weekly Results 8 - 5/7/23
🕑 Added 2023-05-07 23:17:55 +0000 UTCOk! I'm back and have some more results with me! I'll post the examples here one after each other above this, then you can read my thoughts down here.
1. Ohm!
I already showed off Ohm already, but I have to admit that I'm very happy with how he came out. He's much shorter now, but he's a lot better posed and shaped. His tattoo also has a million% more thought put into it, but I'll save the explanation behind it when his arc has concluded.
Note to self: I need to color a few lines to match up with a different character's outfit.
2. Nova!
Not much to say here. I will say that it honestly feels a lot more natural the way clothes are put on people in this style. Beforehand it didn't look right unless i added some extra shadows.
3. Isaac!
There's a bit around his body that's usually erased when I made the actual sprite, so ignore the fluffies sticking out from behind his suit. That aside, I made sure to show Isaac's owner the sprite as I was making it, and he approves! I also find his swimsuit sprite to be.. quite nice.. but I'll hold that for now :3c
4. Ramses!
His swimsuit is ALSO exceptionally nice, as is his underwear. I'll hold onto that for now too, though :3c Did you know Ramses was initially going to have a ton of relevance? Nowadays he's still important, but the role he was going to play was a lot more prevalent...
Note to self: I need to adjust his arm and flatten out the top a bit.
5. Sarah!
I really like how the coloring on her shirt came out, it looks all artsy n stuff! I dunno if I mentioned this earlier either, but Sarah was the third character I ever made, even before Sihai was a dating sim. Originally she was just a receptionist, but her role quickly changed even back then.
6. Biyu!
I'm especially glad of Biyu's glowup, both now and when I made her resprite in the first place. As I may have said, a lot of the context around Biyu and what she's done has changed within my plans, so I'll be adjusting some dialogue accordingly. She is (and will be) a very interesting character, so please look forward to seeing what's going on behind the scenes!

You're definitely right about how the clothes feel for Nova and Sarah now 💖 (also neat to hear that Sarah's been around for so long conceptually) Everyone else also looks great! I'm looking forward to seeing them in future builds once you've gotten far enough for that in your rework plans
