Spriting

[netrider6]

Trying my hand at sprite comics. Go easy on me, it's my first, and rushed through in like ten minutes...



Edit-PS, All the choices Jack goes through(except the one he decides on) are actual full size wallpapers I made.

It's not too bad, actually. Just a couple of suggestions...

1) Don't make a new speech bubble in the middle of a sentence. Adjust the size of the speech bubbles accordingly and finish the sentence...

2) Regardless of the background used, make sure there's a floor for the folks to stand on... unless they're all floating or falling or something. I'm just pointing that out since the first few backgrounds lacked a floor.

3) In the last panel, I noticed that Jack was blurry when resized. You have to turn the Antialias option off when enlargening sprites. Or, failing that, resize it using the Stretch/Skew menu in MSPaint (Ctrl + W). Trust me, they'll look better that way... And don't forget to use whole-number increments (As in, 200%, 300%, etc.)!

4) Whassamatta with green? <_<

[EDIT]: and 5) This should've been posted in the Books & Comics section...

K, was working with a limited pallette of bubbles.

I'm using GIMP, does it have antialias?

Nothing, it's my favorite color actually, just needed a reason to advance from that to the last one.
