Here was my previous fake:

I'd like to thank those who critiqued it, particularly illusion, and definitely bs for helping with this new one.



I created a new arena and totally ditched the whole "centaur lair" idea. I guess u can only regurgitate goro's lair and the balcony stages so many times before they just suck.



For those of you who didn't read about it the first time: My character Kiron is named after the Greek centaur Chiron. He was modeled after the armored centuar below from MK3's story image. I made a custom sprite pose for him. I tried making his horns look the same. Although initially I had no idea how to go about making his face and ridding him of motaro's face, BS helped a lot with that!

This is a fucking amazing make-over. I am just fucking amazed how little time it took you to take my advice and apply it so quickly on that armor!!! wow

This sprite is a much, MUCH better representation of that goat-headed Centaur. Thank you for changing his stripes to freckles/spots as they should have been. You even saw the spots on his forearm which I didn't even catch til now. Nice!

The horns, though still a bit rounded off to he side, are much better than those silly ones you originally had that were curled out to the side perpendicularly with his forward-facing head. His face looks nothing like Motaro. I am not happy with are the blurry-looking abs on his armor. Other than that, wow... just wow. Great job.

I like Kintaro's upper body position much more in this one, and the wound's size makes a lot more sense this time. What doesn't make sense is how his body hasn't slid down the pole's staff considering the size of the wound. That axe should have even punched-out some of his organs and what-not.

The blood splatters look great. Nothing fancy, just like it was in MK so no complaints. The blood on the ground near his legs is too blurry. There should be a blood trail starting from his neck leading up to where his head is currently positioned. wink

I am seriously in love with Kiron. I hope I see more of him, if not, more of this kind of editing!!!

Touché... the arena is fucking b-e-a-uuutiful!

Dislikes:
- The cracks on the statues could use some work.
- The shadows' angles/size needed tweeking
- The clouds in front of the moon look out of place
Likes:
- Color scheme
- The overall design and creativity
- How you used two different (customized) poses for the statues



EDIT: I want to see you do a Shinnok sprite next. I want it to take a week to do, though.

Great fake saiZero, though I quite liked the older one as well despite its flaws.

Centaurs simply don't get enough love in MK fakes so it's good to see something like this.

I'm glad my advice didn't go from one ear and out the other. As said, this is one sexy ass fake pic. You outdone yourself again redoing fakes. Amazing job. You should feel proud how fast you're progressing.

Reminds me of the time I was at a car show and people were crowded around some riced-out four-banger cereal box car (I believe it goes by the name of "Evo" or "WRX" - same shit, different pile) rather than admiring the beauty of the Ferrari F430 Scuderia.
I love the sunset!

Your spotted edit has a better face than mine, it was just resized from the MK3 pic. The horns are a lil weird just mirrored. I like how you aded spikes to the armor, and spots on his arms.

It's a cool idea with the axe, but others have said it's unlikely for the torso to not slide down the handle.


You have promising skills.

HUH? What did I miss during my ban? confused
PIX PIX PIX!
Ancient history you were part of

So few people attempt different ideas. Everyone has their own style. Creative critisism is well appreciated. Bickering & attacking people is asenine.(in other threads)

Acouple other users had Motaro edits. The spotted ones are neat. Like how Kintaro's stripes make him cool. I wonder if there are Turtle & Phoenix type Shokan, aswell... confused

9 YEARS, BABY! I <3 you all, be creative.
