Cant believe I finally found Skarlett. Man...

Alright after practically mastering her in two days here's the lowdown:

Special moves:

Flame lift: Same effects and concept as Kitana's force lift except it's on fire and also deals damage to your opponent. (3x dmg of Scorpion's spear, plus paralyze). Here's a pic that I captured of it: >

Flame fan throw: Same look as Kitana's except it's on fire and deals a little more damage. Here's a concept pic that looks very similar to it:

Flame Kick: Roundhouse kick dealing twice the damage of a standard

Inferno: Performs a flame based uppercut, summoning hellfire beneath your opponent from any range

Fireball: A literal fireball, same animation as Mileena's sai throw

I'll let you guys know if I find any fatalities for her.

It's pretty neat and well done, and simple.

I love the background, but I'm not sure about the sprite. It doesn't seem fitting with the background. Maybe if the sprite and as well as the lighting was a little darker

Nice color scheme man, but as a manipulator myself, I can see things don't blend well enough to fit.

1. The living tree on the right has a pretty obvious separation from the background itself. Erase a little bit of the outline, and it's good.

2. Same for the little bushes in the front, just less. Cuz those look okay already.

3. Skarlett is far enough back in the picture, but her shadow isn't transparent enough to reflect how the grass and so on, would realistically effect a shadow. Skarlett herself could have also been blended in to the image better, by either making her just a tad transparent, or zooming in and erasing the very minimum of her edges. Especially about her left thigh, cuz it's ridged and makes it look like she's sitting on top of the background,and is not actually there in that environment.

4. Then, just a preference here, but I think it was a bad choice of font, font color, and font size. Maybe it's just the black outline. Try a shadow on the text instead.

Since these things are so, it makes it look like all you did was pasted, positioned things, and saved it. Overall, I just like the color scheme, the background, and the fire.

I like Skarlet myself... enough that I am putting her in my MUGEN game... I like the first picture alot. I think everything fits together well unless I take a am picky enough like everyone else to look at every damn detail (as if the MK team was perfect in making their BGs).

The new picture is alright, I just think it's stupid how far back the flames are pushing Liu Kang away... and the edits on his body make you look like a rookie, but obvoiusly you're not. Work on cuts/blood and it'd be great.

Maybe I'm just playing a hacked MKII Mame rom, but this is the real deal. I'll try and capture a movie of her in action later

i agree with your new characters execpt for hydro (i dunno why the hell so many people like him skarlett rules though), robo reptile, and sheeva. replace hydro with like kitana or something, reptile is best as a reptile, replace sheeva with goro and you're all set.
oh yea and the fake is nice

Woa woa woa. ROBO REPTILE? No... that is NOT reptile. Why would reptile be a robot if the LK clan automated THEIR ninjas. Reptile is NOT from the LK. That'd make no sense.
Let me break this down for you.
NightCrawler (green robot) is basically Cyrax with new moves, has his green net, but not his bombs.

Smoke replaces Sektor, he doesn't have that stupid harpoon but he has sektor's moves and cyrax's bombs. YOu can basically say this Smoke is the same Smoke from MK Annihaltion. He's actually gray like human smoke. (I thought purple was pretty lame - at least they got it right for MK Deception).

Hydro replaces the unmasked Sub-Zero's in a sense.

Classic Sub-Zero is just the same sub-zero from N64 MKT.

As soon as I get back to college and have access to my desktop computer I will be working on my M.U.G.E.N. shit and revealing some of my concept "artwork" (basically fake pictures to present my ideas).


I was actually originally going to have Goro, then I had Kintaro... then I said, why not resize Sheeva so she's big as a boss and leave her in there... because Goro and Kintaro already had their chance to shine in MK1 and MK2, respectively, and Motaro was stupid. I'll probably think about it more though because Sheeva wasn't all that special but I like the fact she's a flexible shokan unlike Goro and Kintaro.

oh cool nice explanations and reasons id like to see them in action sometime then....and well i guess just cuz mk3 had like 15 or so characters in the roster doesnt mean you have to limit yourself to that many to make a "true mk3" but thats up to you...itd be cool to see other characters too like the ones that had sprites in mythologies if its possible to rip....fujin, quan chi, sareena, shaolin monk, water god, etc.

I was originally going to do that... I was planning a Mortal Kombat Trilogy Nitro (see my old pic below). I know I'm not restricted to just the character number of MK3... but as my first project I don't want to overdo and underestimate all the work it takes like I did when I planned to create MKT Nitro.


The problem with that is, not all the sprite animations from MKMSZ compensate for every possible move. For example, there is no sprite for a Shaolin Monk that gets killed by Kung Lao's MK2 fatality where he gets sliced in half. Etc. Etc. It'd be too much damn work. But the more practice I get, the more possible it wil become.

Plus the sprite quality for MKMSZ on N64 is piss poor. I can't find a PSX rom/emulator that WORKS... and if I did, I'm sure it'd have spyware and adware all over it.

You should make that long tree branch come in front of Skarlet. It looks pretty weird right now. And the tree and bushes don't go too well with the background, you should do everything reccomended in the above posts and maybe make the Living Forest stuff a lil' bit greyer.

The color hue of Scarlet is much brighter than her lower body on the third fake. Aside from that, I'm not really that impress with the fakes. I mean gee, the effects are nice but those effects seem to be the only thing you have in your arsenal and use it as a distraction to hide the way you don't bother editing the rest of your fake. You might've included shadows, decent blood effects, but how about a new concept for Scarlet, lifebars, and background? =/

I'm not all that thrilled with this character as you post new pics because it's just Kitana's shit with fire on it. Why don't you TRY to give her some unique qualities? New weapons perhaps?

You can't claim something when it's a proven fact. Since I found Skarlett, I'm hoping Hornbuckle is in there as well. I'll make sure to post here if I find anything more

Saying ''you fail'' is really really hip and cool isn't it?

Get a sense of humor.
