    Her sprite head is tiny- like, really tiny- but I can't see anything else wrong. You've done a pretty good job with her bio.

    I think what TR means is that her head looks small because her hair does.
    Hair should always several pixels above the top of a sprite's head (use Sollux as a minimum).



    Also, her hair, horns, and symbol are anti-aliased (blurry).

    Her horns are also not the right color, and her symbol is antialiased... actually her horns appear to be antialiased too.

    Here's sort of a WIP I'm making for my second of four fankids

    >Be the repair girl

    [SPRITE COMING EVENTUALLY]

    got it!!!

    Your name is Anna Wallace and you are a 13 year old living near MAINE

    As a child you've always had a curious streak in terms of TINKERING WITH MECHANICAL DEVICES. You would disassemble a toaster to see how it worked, or stick a paperclip in an electrical outlet to see the outcome. Some may call that impulsive or perhaps unintelligent, but they just can't see the big picture! You desperately feel the need to "experiment and learn as much as you can, because there simply isn't enough TIME in the world to not take advantage of every opportunity that arises, are you getting this?!" It helps that your DAD owns a local REPAIR SHOP, you have access to a variety of different tools and plenty of devices to experiment on, which you can stick in your TOOLBOX modus, which cost a bundle but was totally worth it! However to economize on space in your modus you decide to keep your trusty WRENCH in your STRIFE SPECIBUS.

    That isn't to say experimenting on mechanical devices is your ONLY interest, you enjoy a good exciting ACTION MOVIE, or equally exciting ANIMATION involving GIANT ROBOTS. You also really enjoy a variety of different video games, mostly ones that are in an OPEN WIDE SANDBOX or encourage EXPLORATION. Of course you also talk to some friends on Pesterchum when you feel like unwinding a bit.

    If you were to play a GAME WITH CATACLYSMIC CONSEQUENCES you would be the THIEF OF TIME in the LAND OF TIDES AND TIME

    Your chumhandle is mechanicallyPassionate and you are easily excitable by topics that excite you!!! you know?!

    Your name is JOVIAN MAHMAT.

    You have a passion for ANYTHING ELECTRIC but you lack ANY BUILDING SKILLS AT ALL. But what you do have skills in is TERRIBLE VIDEO GAMES, most of which are FIGHTING SIMULATORS.

    You also often partake in ACTUAL FIGHTING, often using the axe you INHERITED from your ANCESTOR. You stay calm most of the time, but at certain points you fly into a RAGE. You FLARP, despite being NOT THAT GREAT AT ROLEPLAYING. You consider yourself KIND OF A BADASS, even if this is not necessarily true. You used to build up strength by CUTTING DOWN TREES with your axe, until you were STRUCK BY LIGHTNING. You were marked with many SCARS after this incident.

    You don't keep tons of posters on the wall showing what your INTERESTS are, because you know GOD DAMN WELL what stuff you like. You study ANCIENT HISTORY, especially when it relates to WAR. You also have an interest in FRACTALS. You gained this interest because the SCARS you acquired in the lightning incident form a FRACTAL of sorts.

    Your trolltag is fractalFulminator and you 5pEak with an air of calmnE55 mo5t of thE timE.

    Those lines should probably go through his eyebags as well. It looks kind of odd as it is.

    >Be the troll obssessed with fighting

    Hey! Fights are awesome man, don't be hating!

    >Be Horrin Keshka.

    You are now Horrin Keshka, and you're on a Saiyan ship! You are a total geek, and love watching or playing anything that involves fighting. Of course that is not the only thing you do. You've seen such things as Trolls Wars, Dragontroll Z, not to mentioned it's HILARIOUS abridged counterpart, and some other really geeky shit. You like a good fight every now and again, but lately you have found that you are becoming less interested in fighting due to a rising concern of what may or may not happen if you come across someone you either can't defeat, or simply aren't able to due to the rather LARGE handicap that you give everyone. You mean, hey, that's the downside of being the deathmatch champion extraordinaire. You end up becoming a much better fighter than most others.

    Deathmatches aren't the only reason why you have such good fighting skills. You see, you have a Kangaroo Lusus. It's name is Jack, it loves fighting even more than you did, if that's even possible, and you and your Lusus train practically every night. That said, there have been some times when the fights would drag on for hours, either because you both wanted to continue, or because your Lusus just didn't want to stop. As a result of all of this training, you have gained a heightened battle sense that helps you to be aware of when someone wants to do you harm. It can't be turned off though, so if one of your friends walk up to you all pissed and stuff and you don't see it's them, you could end up inadvertently hurting them, which kind of sucks. You are also faster than normal trolls due to your training, and have trained yourself to use a technique you call 'at one with the sword' where you close your eyes and attempt to heighten your other senses. You've only ever had to use this once thus far, and that is because a certain troll was a cheap ass that had to use something to disorient you in battle instead of fighting fairly, the prick.

    Speaking of fighting, death matches aren't the only thing you've done. You have time and again over the past sweep, donned a rather fancy suit without a symbol to hide who you really are and have gone flarping on occassion. In all your life, this was the only time that you did not give your opponents any form of handicaps, and as such have completely defeated many teams that you have come across, simply introducing yourself as 'Chaos' when they asked who you were. They eventually took to calling you Dark Demise, and even though you haven't flarped in a while, that name for you has apparently taken on a bit of a legend amongst flarping circles.

    Speaking of Flarping and Flarpers, your Matesprit Pirana Flarps. You think it's pretty amusing that she wear a Piranha Plant suit from Troll Mario when flarping, which is why when you join her you are wearing your Troll Mario outfit. You are both a little slow in some areas, you not always being adept at socializing and her giving hugs to everyone when that is not a normal thing, but you like to think that the two of you are Good Matesprits. You also have a Moirail, a hacker named Skehth. You haven't seen him for a while though, due to his Matesprit doing everything he can to keep him away from you.

    Your view on the Hemospectrum isn't really much of a view at all. Your opinion is that it is there, and that that is all that there is to it. You really don't care who lands where on the Spectrum, as long as they are good guys that are nerdy, good at fighting, or both. You have yet to talk to one that is not one of those two things at any length, so your view on things is a bit narrow because of that. Your Strife Specibus is Bladekind, and your primary weapon is this HUGE FUCKING SWORD that your ancestor left you, which can apparently be used for Shadow Smoke shenanigans. You are tired of the shadow smoke and tired of being tied to your ancestor though, so you decided to seal that away, if you can.

    Your Trolltag is mysteriousHellian, and you )))Tend to leave your statements rather open ended.(((

    New and updated app on Horrin Keshka after who knows how long worth of development. Any questions, comments, requests, plain stupid statements?

    I'd say the issue with your hair is that it looks... misshapen? I'm not sure what's going on with the top or sides of it, especially the strand.

    I was basing it from this deviation, and for it I wanted Skepkitty's looks to be somewhat like Calmasis's but not quite identical, and I apparently see no boundary between "different" and "strange".

    He's suffering from 'big head syndrome', which is usually a symptom of using one of the older bases that for some reason was shaped weirdly. I'd reccomend checking out trollslum for the current bases, slapping the hair on top and editing that.

    May I have some critique on what I posted earlier? I have the feeling I am quite bad at creating characters.

    Crazy-8; Seems pretty solid to me! I might suggest a little bit of expansion--what kinds of friends she likes to hang out with/talk to, how she feels about her dad, stuff like that.

    Re: FANTROLL/HUMAN/ALIEN/BLOODSWAP CRITIQUE THREAD 2: being trollguca is suffering

    Interesting human you have there. I am not the expert on fanstuff creation, so I can't really offer to much advice, although maybe expand in an area or two? I personally am wondering what kind of tool shop her dad has. I'd wait for someone who'e been doing this for a while to give a proper crit before making changes though.

    And I would like to echo the sentiment of critiquing with my repost of a much older fantroll app that I have completely redone based on events that he has been through thus far, if possible.

    And then I was ninja'd, except I wasn't Should have reloaded. lol

    I have this troll, but I'm thinking it's more of a clusterfuck than a troll.



    You are Pyrrah Drisda and you love to be HELPFUL!



    tl;dr

    Is it confusing? Too much? Also, I don't know if her "lifelong dream to fly" fits real well. :/

    Oops! After a long long time of forgetting to check this thread for recent updates, I have come back with kawaii sprites and maybe some other things. Maybe.
    But uh, first this! Self inserts are cool, right?



    Does this look alright? :S I just wanna make sure, spriting is hard.

    Silvy, that sprite looks awesome. I love the hair in particular.
    My only thing with it is that the hair shows through the glasses at one point but the face does not on the other lens. So it looks odd to my eyes. I did see the sprite where it showed the face and I agree that this one looks better, but that's the only thing I see. Just a little nitpicky thing haha.

    Re: FANTROLL/HUMAN/ALIEN/BLOODSWAP CRITIQUE THREAD 2: being trollguca is suffering

    I'll see what edits I can make. Two paragraphs does seem like a bit much, and exposition on his geekiness is something that I should have thought of.
    At one with sword is actually something that he trained himself to do with a little help from his Lusus. The logic for this is based off the fact that heightening your sensory perceptions in other areas by depriving one of your senses completely is something that anyone can do with enough practice, whether troll or human. It has real life applications too. Why do you think blind people who have been blind all their life are able to move around the house without constantly running into things?
    I do agree that the battle sense thing could be a power that he has, but the only problem with this is that, as I forgot to mention before, he has a latent version of his ancestors power, the ability to create out of any other matter, and control shadow smoke. He only has the control aspect though, he doesn't know that it is a power and thinks it is something that is just attributable to his ancestors weapon, and doesn't even know that he has any powers at all.
    I could maybe cut down a bit on the Quadrants exposition too. I'll see what I can do on that.

    Thats two powers, not one.

    And do you think that would have been something to mention in the bio? Or at least in an obscure kind of way.

    The 'At one with the sword' thing in all is kind of silly! In a battle, closing your eyes and increasing your hearing whatever isnt going to let you win, its just going to make you look like an idiot when the person sneaks up (quietly, i may add) and stabs you.

    Toothy orangeblood:
    1. Whoa nellie, them are some bigass teeth! It looks like she would have trouble getting food in her mouth.
    2. Blood's a bit bright. I suggest darkening it until it looks more brown than orange.
    3. One eye looks a bit lower than the other.
    4. Servile and accepting of the hemospectrum! Good, good. I like that in a lowblood.
    5. Does she acknowledge that her 'friends' don't give a shit about her and only consider her a pack mule?
    6. What if one of her friends told her to kill another friend? Or two friends wanted her to kill each other?
    7. The dream of flying doesn't really fit in. You could easily take it out and change her trolltag, but if you want to keep it, elaborate on it. Why does she want to fly? What inspired her dream in the first place? What has she done to accomplish it? Would she consider calling in a favor from one of her friends to help with that?
    8. Trolls wear almost entirely black and gray, and even Aradia's dirt-digging lowblood ghost didn't look that shabby. Plus, her highblood friends would want anyone associated with them to look semi-decent.
