The Venom Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) The Acer Kit [beta]Three-Shade VersionMy new BIONICLE sprite kit.The goal of this kit is to provide decent customization to the user,without having to change too much on the main sprite.To be a kit like no other.The kit is 5-shades.Not 3. Not 6. BUT 5.Thoughts and criticism encouraged.(I'm considering a 4-shade version of the kit)(for those who hate recoloring 5-shade)(Thoughts on that would be nice as well)-Updates--New Piraka Skull-Shading has been slightly modified-Color Palette has been slightly modified-A few masks have been modified-Pohatu Feet-Using the Kit-If there are any accessories or extras you have in mind to make your use of the kit more easilyto handle for whatever it may be, comics, games, etc, I'll be glad to add them.If this kit is used, be sure to give credit to me, The Venom.It's been a great year working on this and hearing thoughts from my friends along the way.Thank you, and great thanks to my younger brother, who goes by 'Acer',whome I dedicate this kit to.-V- Edited December 21, 2011 by The Venom Quote Here are some actually great comics that I feel deserve a bit more attention as well.One Nation Under The Great Spirit - The Lazy Life of a Comic Maker 3.0 - 009 Makes Comics - Tilted - The Awesomepacolypse - Tavkorp: Since 2008 - Akano's Comics Well, see you never again, BZP.

Lavama Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 This is really incredible so far! And I'm a little surprised someone's using a 5 bit kit. Congrats on that work, it's impressive!

Kazi the Matoran Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Quite impressive indeed! I really like the detail on this kit. My only issue is with the Hau; looks a bit odd, like a carp opening its mouth. Other than that, everything's great!

Darcsyde Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Looks terrific. I like how it uses the poseablility of Rayg and the customizability of Chimoru/Xanis. http://www.bzpower.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/cool.png EDIT: Hey, there are five shades. That just makes it look awesomer. Edited October 18, 2011 by Darcsyde Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Evo Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 The kit is 5-shades.Not 3. Not 6. BUT 5.Why is that important? I mean, is that why the kit's so unique? Because it has five shades? I don't see what makes that any more important than an original kit with four or six shades or whatever. Seriously, though, it looks great. Though I can't help but feel some of the masks are weird shrunken versions of their counterparts in the old MNOLG kit, I'm pretty sure that isn't the case. I don't see myself using it anytime in the forseeable future, but excellent work nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I wasn't trying to make that implication.It was just a play on the fact the kit's 5 shades, and it's usually a rare feature in other kits. XPThe MNOLG Kit actually played a role when it came to mask references, now that you mention it.But I'm glad you think it's great.Thanks to everybody else for the compliments! -V- Quote Here are some actually great comics that I feel deserve a bit more attention as well.One Nation Under The Great Spirit - The Lazy Life of a Comic Maker 3.0 - 009 Makes Comics - Tilted - The Awesomepacolypse - Tavkorp: Since 2008 - Akano's Comics Well, see you never again, BZP.

GCKrastin Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 That's quite a sizable amount of epic win you have there, good sir. No seriously, it's been a long time since I've seen something THIS good on the forums. Game makers and animators will love you forever.Not only does it look great for animations, but I can actually see this kind of stuff used in a comic series or something....Why won't the screen accept it when I throw money at it?

Mesonak Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Lovin' what you've got here, Ven. One of my favorite new kits I've seen on the forums in some time; the detail is great, and i love the body and mask designs. And the Piraka skull is epic win. I'm also quite partial to the designs of the Bohrok, not exactly sure why but they really speak to me. To end my post; that pumpkin is amazing. Good work. -Mesonak Quote The Three Virtues YouTube Channel ----- ----- Check it out for laughs, discussion, and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P~M Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Wow, that is incredible. The Matoran look a bit weird, but that's okay, considering the Toa are AMAZING. Really good.

The Venom Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 Thanks for the positive feedback, guys. I'm glad the kit's being very well received so far.Apologies for my brief inactivity and lack of updates.I've had a lot to do recently, but I will make time to update again.Definitely expect more pre-made poses coming along the way.I'm also very open to requests and suggestions.If you have any, don't hesitate to tell me. -V- Quote Here are some actually great comics that I feel deserve a bit more attention as well.One Nation Under The Great Spirit - The Lazy Life of a Comic Maker 3.0 - 009 Makes Comics - Tilted - The Awesomepacolypse - Tavkorp: Since 2008 - Akano's Comics Well, see you never again, BZP.

The Great Spirit DM Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 (edited) Well, I must say, I like this kit. I do wish, though, that you would make more action poses. like punching, kicking, etc. Edited December 2, 2011 by kanohi_master Quote Conflux: BIONICLE Tabletop Combat System Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find those easier to look at and recolor. If you can't, then that's fine. I can see how hard it would be.My request is this: Do you think you could sprite a VNOG version of the Ignika? That's my favorite mask shape ^_^Thanks for your time.

The Venom Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Ah, I've been waiting for a shade-downgrade request. Just seems natural. XPThanks for your suggestions!

I had more ideas, and I'll share since you seem to like them. :)Do you think you could make more angles of the bodies, including the Bohrok? (and Rahkshi I guess, but I'm a bigger fan of the Bohrok). This would obviously take much more time, so do take your time. I'm guessing you were planning on doing this eventually, anyway.

The Venom Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 Alright, finally got around to finishing the update.-Kit's been laid out differently.-Some Toa Metru pre-made poses.-Default colors for Toa are now Red and Orange rather than Red and Gold.-I tried a VNOG version of the Ignika. (In the Extras portion) I might just redo it later though.-New Hau. Again. Probably the final Hau.-A Three-Shade version of the entire kit including the above updates.The three-shade version is open to any edits or corrections.-V- Quote Here are some actually great comics that I feel deserve a bit more attention as well.One Nation Under The Great Spirit - The Lazy Life of a Comic Maker 3.0 - 009 Makes Comics - Tilted - The Awesomepacolypse - Tavkorp: Since 2008 - Akano's Comics Well, see you never again, BZP.
