Pikmin

[Sengir]

Prompted by PA's thread (I wouldn't say "inspired")



I'd say I'm getting better, but then again that's just my point of view.

i'd use a bit less saturated colors, and put more space between the bulborb's legs

[Vic]

I actually like the saturated colors, gives the whole thing a slight NES feeling
I do, however, agree on what Metaru said about the bulborb's legs

[Jovian-12]

aww, these are adorable. I like the limited colors, it gives them a bright cartoony look.

[Baegal]

my only complaint is that it looks like the pikmin are shrinking rather than walking

[Sengir]

Thanks everyone, I think I've fixed them:


and a wip for Olimar (i really need some help withe the head):

For the hair, getting the three spikes might not be possible at this size, so try making it a clump. Don't forget his ear either. Olimar's legs could be shorter, I think.

[Iceman404]

His Chest/Body is way too large, Olimars a midget. =P
Also, he looks like he's leaning way too far back (Air hump. JK, JK)
But I really like the overall style, and 8-bit simplicity this has, its looking awesome.

[Cobalt Blue]

regarding teh size, you should keep it around the pikmin's one. is not like this was made following any scale.

[Sengir]

Any better?

Man, I love the Pikmin. The walking may look more natural if you have their antennae bob up and down, and maybe have their arms sway (or do... something. I don't recall how Pikmin walk).

That Bulborb is also totally awesome.

I think Olimar would look better with a flatter head+helmet, they should be far from perfectly round. Maybe try a much lighter blue or just transparency for his helmet, it looks odd. Also, go for shorter legs and arms.

[Sengir]

I shortened his left arm, flattened his head and helmet, and gave him a walking animation

[Hoeloe]

His body is still too big in proportion to his head. In the actual game, his head is about the size of his body (including the helmet).

[Jovian-12]

yeah, start with what you have with the Pikmin's bodies for Olimar, then edit it.

Bottom is new:


e: i don't want him too similar to the Pikmin though
