What is GIMP?

[luke83]

OK so it looks like we have a winner

Any objections?

[luke83]

Zharik1999 - Its a graphics tool that allows me to pretend i have some talent because of all its features I cant even draw a desent circle in real life but GIMP makes art fun

Yes, maybe right one is better in terms of posture, though arms still look too short, and  muscles are overworked (too big and too much of contrast contours)

[luke83]

OK i will continue working him.


Deepone  comments?
 I have a big Black space around his abdomen , what should be here?

[Zharik1999]

Oh, is it really so necessary to put him in inventory screen without a weapon? I mean that original pic is so nice.

[luke83]

I know but it kinda rubs me the wrong way to have some with guns, i will make both version available so everybody wins

Thoughts on Picture?

[luke83]

Hopefully the final gilman is on the right , longer arms , smaller muscles , slightly less contrast...

[Zharik1999]

Looks rather good, I would love to see it in the inventory screen while mind controling Gillman.

Yes i know that Yanks, is that why the images don't match the battelsprites?, i pulled these images from the UFOPEDIA site so i assumed they where correct. Can someone confirm IF these Images are what you see in the UFOPEDIA in game?

All my images have been shown on here in a UFO defence file so i guess i will need to transfer some into TFTD ones later.

My thinking was i should keep these looking like the UFOpedia entry and not the actual battle sprites , what does everyone else think?

Yes your images are correct. I think his worry was how can you port TFTD images to UFO, given the different palettes?

Also UFOpaedia and Battlescape use different palettes which probably explains the different colors (or just really creative artists). I would stick with the UFOpaedia pictures as they look cooler.

I know but it kinda rubs me the wrong way to have some with guns, i will make both version available so everybody wins

Thoughts on Picture?

It is kinda weird that Ufopaedia gave him a gun because in the actual game a Deep One can't carry weapons, he's a terrorist unit.

[Volutar]

Yeah, and as terrorist unit it doesn't have inventory at all.

Much better!

gillman looks great but... you will be arrested by pixel police :>

1) try dont use black as part of graphic, this color should be only used for background (because in 99% cases is used as transparent color)
2) remove every outstanding pixel that dont represent any feature in picture.

I have made some fix to your work, compare it to yours originals.

[luke83]

I see your point on the gillman , there where a some strange pixels floating around the legs from the resizing process.

On the civilian , you gave him liposuction , He is not as fat in your version     

[Yankes]

simply use less dark colors around his chest -> less contrast less fat
