I recently made a sprite for my OC, Ruby Jewels. Here it is:

Spoiler: Spirit Medium Mystic Ruby Jewels
Image

Name: Ruby Jewels
Age: 8
Info: Pearl's friend in Kurain. She became friends with Pearl when Pearl offered to train with her. Something kinda like this, but not exactly like it:

Ruby: *sniffle* I did so horrible in today's class...
Pearl: *notices Ruby* Are you alright?
Ruby: Yeah, I just...*sob* ....Did so horrible in class...Mom's gonna be angry at me.
Pearl: Don't worry, I'll help you! My name's Pearl. Wanna be training buddies?
Ruby: Sure! :D

Thoughts about the sprite (old): Something about the eyes bothers me, but I just can't put my finger on it. And the orange hair combined with the purple spirit medium costume might take a while to get used to...

Thoughts about the sprite (new): ....She almost looks like Miu Matsuoka from Ichigo Mashimaro. o.O


So, er, what do you guys think of my sprite? Comments and critiques please? :adrian:

EDIT: Replaced the old Ruby under the spoiler-cut with new Ruby!

EDIT: Replaced the new Ruby under the cut with a newer Ruby!

EDIT: Replaced the old Rubyunder the cut with the final Ruby.

Spoiler: Sprite Sheet (WIP)
Image

I plan on adding more poses than this, though.

Just Ruby in Kurain

Ruby and Pearly~

The hair is a good job I guess (I like the barrette), but she still looks a lot like Pearl. You may want to look for another head/pair of eyes/other features that make her look less like Pearl. Other than that she's very cute.

(I myself have an original character named Ruby Quartz...I'm totally not kidding.)

I think you should lower her fringe a bit, as her hairline is a bit too high up. Also the green in the eyes is a little too bright, try using more olive tones. Otherwise its very good!

Yeah, that was bothering me too. :yuusaku: I'm gonna try and find a different pair of eyes that might work. Also, that's such a coincidence. O.o

@Bomchu: I'll try that. So that's what was wrong with the eyes!

EDIT: I added the new Ruby!

She looks much less like Pearl now, good job with improvements. Something about the nose is bothering me, but I can't put my finger on it... :think:

I think I have an idea as to what it is. It's something to do with the shading, right? I don't really have a clue on how to fix that...

EDIT: Being the lazy-butt I am, I decided to just use Pearl's nose.

Anyways, I have another problem here. I was told by hubby that I should change the color of the robes and (possibly) the magatama since she isn't a Fey. I already know what color to change the jacket-thingy and what's underneath it, but as for what color the magatama should be, I don't have a clue. Halp? Also, the color's I'm using are dark red (jacket) and cream/white (clothes underneath).

I don't really think the color of the magamenta needs to change, as mia, pearly, and maya all have different colored magatama and they are feys, so it really doesn't matter what color a magatama is. Also I vote green magatama

Alright, I edited Ruby's costume. Here's the (possibly) final version:

The undergarment needs to be toned down a bit, as its too bright.
I like the coat though.

Should I just keep the cream colors or go with something else? I've tried to think of something, but I just can't...

Well cream is fine, I'm just thinking add a little more brown and a bit less yellow to tone it down a bit.

It's hard to tell she came from a Pearl sprite now, good job. I'd like to recommend an orange magatama (ORANGE PWNS!)

The freckles are very dark however. Did you do that intentionally? It may help to shade the skin tones around them, to make them look more natural. But it looks fine anyhow, so that's up to you.

Yeah, I did that intentionally, but I should shade...

Alright, I decided that the version I just posted is going to be the final one. The bow color is going to stay the same color as the jacket, the magatama is going to be purple...Etcetera etcetera.

I plan on making a sprite sheet of Ruby. However, I'm curious about what to use to put together the frames. What am I supposed to use? :yuusaku:

I really like this new sprite! Looks excellent. The colour scheme is really nice and I love her hair and freckles, she looks really adorable ^_^ All I can say is that the clip seems awkward in her hair, wouldn't it mbe more to the side? Minor niggle though.

As for animation I use Animation shop 1 which is kinda old but does the job and I got it for free (magazine), so maybe it's available somewhere? Other than that there's a trial for A.S3 somewhere...

I can't find Animation Shop 1. And I did find a trial, but I'm looking for something that's entirely free...

Also, I added the sprite sheet for Ruby. It's a WIP, though.

*raises hand.. OR DOES HE?*

If you want, I'll animate them for you.

Saves time, as far as I can see.

Please do! Or if you decided you're lazy, you can just send the program to me. Unless it's really advanced.

Not advanced, just a lot of stuff to download to make it.

*takes into GIMP*

I meant thr sprite.

If you want something easy, just use UNfreeze. Just drag and drop and create.
