Free Step Dodge

I see the Alpha, but I don't see the Rig/Mila, did you make those? We are also missing an eliot, kokoro, la mariposa, and Spartan-458.

My only concern is that it's not consistent with the style of our current smilies: http://www.freestepdodge.com/smilies/spritesheet.png

I did not make a Rig or Mila smiley, at least not for this site... I made them for DOA World, but their smileys are stylistically different from FSD. I actually adapted the Alpha Smiley from the Kasumi one in that list you linked, ironically enough, because I didn't want it to look different, style-wise.

I'm more used to creating smileys in the style of my avatar. I adapted it from the Ayane that DOA World has, but I changed her expression. I also make animated GIF smileys.

Some examples:

I made a comparison of the Kasumi smiley and the Alpha one. I think a lot of the stylitic differences you may see result in the character herself looking different from the rest of the cast of mostly human characters... It's not easy being green... and gelationous...

If you could make some suggestions as to how it can be improved, I'd be more than happy to work on it. I did clean up the edge of the circle a bit. I think that's part of the problem as well.

In short, she looks very pixelated and I think she has too much shading.

Ok I'll work on it.

Ok. I ligtened the more shadowy areas and gave her a darker outline so she'd Fit in with the style of the others better... http://i599.photobucket.com/albums/tt72/dutchsamurai/alphafsdv2_zpsec473a60.png Any better?

better, but her eye still looks too round/bug eyed.

Ok. I go at it again then...

Not so bug-eyed. Alpha is dang near a chibi Cover Girl at this point :P I put her with the others so, hopefully, you can see that she looks good enough to get in this club.

I changed the hair slighly by her shoulder.
