I can't remember if that skeleton that you just made into something was made from scratch or not though. Was it?
In some cases I "traced" the skeletons from the screenshots, but it's still kinda from scratch.
If you're referring to the fourth one (the one with that "sword" thing), I used this to craft the "fifth" (not counting that drawing on paper) sprite.
I am curious not only as to what you will make based on a vector skeletons, but also as to what you will do with that shoe. o_O
As I still have the .psp files of these skeletons, I can make many more frames of animation just by manipulating the vectors themselves. Anyway, these might be obviously for the characters,even the Shoe sprite. Speaking of that shoe......
1.I took many pictures of one of Most_Mysterious's own left shoe, and retraced one of them. Also, the shoe itself isn't made from the vectors, only the robotic arm, a glove, and - to some extent - it's eye.
2.Did I just mentioned Most_Mysterious? Anyway, MM himself used to make one "Boot with boxing gloves" character that was never seen to light (i mean, no screenshots of the character got into the public). This boot apparently is in the roster of the still imaginary full game project idea of mine that is somewhat a tribute to few of MM's abandoned characters. More of them later,
for now you can take a look to the topic I've created on one of Polish forums If you're interested.
3.Also, If I ever get to make an original character using one of these vector skeletons, I'll probably leave the sprites unshaded, leaving a shading (and making other tweaks to the sprites as well) job(s) to somebody else. I just don't think I'll ever be a good spriter at all....
