akt_m Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) sorry i only had time to resize it to 1024x768 or close to it (it is hard to handle a 360 mb file and my computer doesnt help). and it is not finished yet, i decided to release it now because i wont have enough time to do it. maybe next year... -edit- changed the gamma, i forgot almost everybody uses a higher brightness.

Knight26 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Very Nice, can't wait to see more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macross_Fanboy Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Okay...to be honest, I don't like the faces of the characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wabbit Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 The faces now have more a generic anime style. Myun has a nice 'warm' face, which is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wesker99 Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 True, the faces don't look exactly like their actual Macross Plus counterparts, but I still think is a great piece of work Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akt_m Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) thank you for your compliments. i know i know, all those sharon apples are not even close to the original ones from the ovas and movie. i did it because i wanted to give it a mikimoto´s style look. take a good look at them, they are not so bad. note: this was resized to 25% or 50% (i dont know) of the original size.

Beware of Blast Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Not bad! but, ya should consider coloring that with CorelDraw. Remember the Drop-shadow trick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akt_m Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 yeah i do remember thanks to you i learned how to use it, but i would only use coreldraw if i didnt have bought my (low end) digitalizer table(the cheapest one i found with levels of pression). corel draw just doesnt work well with it. besides it is at 600 dpi so it should be as precise as a vectorial graphic, i dont know why i did it at a such high resolution, most of the small details (all the stars in special) are not visible when resized to 100 dpi or less.

akt_m Posted December 21, 2004 Author Share Posted December 21, 2004 (edited) sorry for reviving an old post, it is almost finished. the sdf-1 and the yf-19 are still far from being good but i might not change them at all.

yellowlightman Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 To be honest, I liked the original version better. All the extra shading and coloring (Myung's hair for example) doesn't work as well, IMO. Any chance you could post a larger version of the two pics for wallpaper use?

akt_m Posted December 22, 2004 Author Share Posted December 22, 2004 i´m afraid that i dont have any files that were resized and transformed to jpg of the old version anymore, but i can just hide all the colored layers that you didnt like. it may take some time for me to do it since the original .psd file is 400 mb large and it occupies 3 gb of temporaly files, so it takes a large ammount of time to open here. It would be better to send the file to your email or i could just upload it to your website. you can tell me everything you did not like so i can change it to your preference.

Neova Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Looking good. How about a 1600x1200 version? Yeh, my desktop is pretty big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
