Starship Troopers sprite stuff

Post by HalfdeadKiller » 17 Apr 2015, 19:22

Hi hi. I was wanting to sprite some Starship Trooper armor so that maybe I could donate and wear it, but figured i'd post here and see if anyone would like to help in improving what i've made, or for their own use! Sharing is caring!

Also, the .xcf file in there is a gimp file. It saves all the layers and stuff. Not sure if it is openable by other programs. The zip also contains the individual armor sprites facing their respective directions on a 32x32 pixel canvas. They are aligned, so feel free to import those into whatever you edit images with!

Pictured below is Version 2, Version 1 was more.. greenish.

I see a marine with SST armor and a helmet.... I would suggest adding a Jumpsuit and possibly some type of gloves for it? Maybe grey, Maybe make it the power armor from the new animated movie even.
Why am I still here again?
Just your Former Head Staff stalking around from time to time I suppose.

Updated the picture with a grey jumpsuit. Forgot that I had the marine jumpsuit on in the first pic i took. The armor sprite needs work, I'm just unsure of how to make it more Starship Trooper-ey.

its definitely distinct from the regular marine armor look thats for sure but i genuinely cant tell if i like it or not, it doesn't feel much like the stuff from the films but the CM armor doesn't feel much like aliens to me either, and really at the end of the day its to be expected because theres only so much you can cram into 32x32 pixels.

the work itself is good ill give it that much, just not sure how starship troopery it is.

Meh .. Better, but still needs to be a bit darker, like the main armor pieces probably
