Haemophages and other cutscenes..., (Need a feedback!!!) Options

[Jens of Zanicuud]

Hi everyone,

I'll treat this topic as a sort of "garbage collector" in which I'll post some of my game's cutscenes / pictures in order to get some feedback.
At the moment I need some feedback about this.

You are free to give feedback about the old pictures, but I'd like to know something about the newer one

Thanks in advance

I'm working at Tryadine Effect Project by November 2011, but never really designed how Haemophages (i.e. monsters which appears in the game) could look like.
A couple of days ago, I was hitten by an idea and drawn this creature.
1.

[Show/Hide] Haemophage

Then, I wasn't satisfied and slightly edited it.
2.

[Show/Hide] Haemophage (reissue)

What do you think of the picture? What was the best one between the two?
I'd really appreciate to receive some comment...

I had some problem too with Day 3 ending cutscene.
In your opinion, what's the best picture between those three:

1.

[Show/Hide] Drawn with Paint.NET, coloured with Paint.NET

2.

[Show/Hide] Drawn by hand, coloured with Paint.NET

3.

[Show/Hide] Edited Cutscene

Thanks in advance,

Jens

The "Haemophage" image looks neat, but I like the black around the eyes better than not having it (it adds a lot to the picture, despite only being a small edit). =]
The second set of images is hard to compare... not because the differences are subtle, but because they are almost too different, lol.
The first one has a more feminine appearance (smoother, more curves) whilst the second one is more detailed and has less of a feminine appearance (especially in the face). Also, the second one seems to be more muscular with a lean body; so the breasts are completely unrealistic in size, lol. (She would fall forward, and the total body fat percentage is generally larger if you have breasts at that size - just saying from a girl's perspective, because it looks like a tomboy that wanted plastic surgery for some unknown reason.)
Hope that helps. ^^

Same, i like the slightly edited Haemophage picture; the second one w/ the little bit of black around the eyes.
It makes it look less innocent/friendly. : ))
i think i like the 1st cutscene image though. The mood of the scene seems meek and dark, and the character looks weak/ vulnerable.
Having a small mouth, rounded face, lighter build, and shorter nose adds to this vulnerability; it gives her child-like qualities/ physicality.
Edit: ...and the angle of the face is more accurate. >< Remember that the nose is in the centre of the face.

Okay, I'm for the second Haemophage too - thanks a lot for the feedback:)

As regards the second cutscene...
Well, I'm not a drawing artist, I'm still learning and so have some problem with body proportions.
I used the first one as a cutscene, but I never get satisfied by that, so I tried drawing it by hand.
The breast wasn't supposed to be such unproportioned. It was my fault, but never wanted to draw it oversized, I swear
Have you any advice/hint on how to modify the second one to make it better?
NOTE: the girl in the cutscene is 25-26 years old. I forgot to mention it before...

I'll do the following things for sure:

1. smoothen the contours;
2. reduce the breast size;
3. reduce muscular size.

I've not understood Magical_RuNE_Knight2001's comment on the nose, I'm sorry...
In my opinion it's still set in the centre of the face, as that reply suggested.

If someone can tell me something more, or add any advice, I'll be really glad:)

And also... can I have feedback on this image too? I actually don't know how to improve the design for the Noctiphage:

[Show/Hide] Noctiphage

I think that's only a color issue, but every hint/advice will be well received.

Thanks again,

Jens


EDIT: I've try modifying the cutscene picture and this is the result. Tell me if it's better in your opinion...
