THIO Sprite Work

[Red_Raven]

It's about time there was some recent sprite work for this section, espeacially since it's been void of any art in this part of the board by anybody for a long time now. Anywho I'll be posting my sprite work for THIO here and you all can share your opinions, espeacially for those who missed an occaisional link to some work I did. o to start things off here what I have so far on the labs lounge room. Not much yet but right now I'm making the props and fitting them in place as I go.

Well I decided to pick up my sprites a do a bit of work on them this morning. Here are some improvements to the characters.

Past few days I made more improvements, remade Spree, Metbot and sprited Arvis.

Note: Bluejay's Silverwing I just put that on him in there to show what It looks like.

God damn I'm so pissed and worked up right now. I did an awesome job on the first half of the labs main room which is shaped like a circle. So I went on the second half and was flipping things around and such and editing and I tryed to deselect off of something and I hit the S key instead of D which saved over the 1st half background, and now it's lost. I had a chance to get it back because of Armature birthday animation but unfortunately I closed that out, and when you ave a file optimized, it fuses all the layers, so theres no going back. I would have gone back in my history but Photoshop's history only goes back so far, so that was useless. So I'm pretty pissed right now and need to go cool off.

I'm always paranoid about screwing up originals of a file without thinking, particularly since I have a habit of pressing control-s a lot to make sure I don't actually lose any work (whether it's an image, text file, whatever).  So I tend to use the Duplicate feature in the window menu of Paint Shop Pro.  It copies the current file into a new window, and naturally asks me for a filename when I try to save it.  I would assume Photoshop has a similar feature.


EDIT:  Scratch that, I skimmed through the menus of CS2, and I don't see anything that does it, unless it's buried away.  The only thing similar is an option to create basically a clone of the current window, and changes in one affect the other.  I guess that's useful in its own way, but not for what I was referring to.
