    Re: FANTROLL CRITIQUE THREAD 3: no spritin' in the club, gimme 20 'trollers

    @Gazimu: Why is he wearing all white? Even if you were so lazy to use a generator (actual bases that look good aren't hard to find on this forum), why couldn't you at least crop the image so there's not so much dead space? The symbol color and typing color don't match, and the typing color is way too bright. You're also overselling the assassin thing: He's a paid assassin (which I don't think is really a great profession for a troll), he has an assassin symbol, his title is also assassin (even though Sburb titles should have only one syllable). Is there any reason he types using that quirk? This guy seems completely one dimensional.

    I suggest that you make an entirely new sprite, and that you make significant adjustments to the character.

    Though I see you've already posted him in the trollslum, so are you still planning to make changes?

    @PoeSagit: Okay. Sounds like you're just giving up, but whatever.

    Generally, with troll sprites, color almost always signifies blood. Dressing like this makes him look like more of a blueblood than a yellowblood. I would change those pants to a grey of some variety.

    Re: FANTROLL CRITIQUE THREAD 3: Never ever ever ever use a fantroll sprite generator

    The reason your troll gets mistaken as a male is because you've drawn her as a male. Look at how the characters in Homestuck are represented. There are a couple of key features that are used to differentiate male from female: Lips and eyes. Females tend to be represented with full lips and males tend to be represented with flat-line lips (like your troll). Females are also given eyelashes, while males lack those. These are important indicators because the sprite representations of the characters are a bit abstract. There's more detail available in the talk sprites, but not enough to keep a character from looking androgynous or male.

    So if you want your character to look female you need to change those things at the very least!

    Additionally, "Tempus" sounds rather male, too.

    Is there any point in there that you tell us what color blood your troll has?

    Re: FANTROLL CRITIQUE THREAD 3: Never ever ever ever use a fantroll sprite generator

    User: Be that formally dressed man.

    (the image is behind the big scary spoiler :P)



    You happen to become this dashingly prepared young man here. You are known fondly as TALMON BAROTT. Or as you are known online ascendingCaliber. Your title is SPY OF OATH and you pursue THE TRUTH. Even though your tendincies dont always seem to be the most truthful. such as MERCENARY WORK, and POLITICS. You enjoy the company of your OWL LUSUS, because he is a great letter carrier.

    Your personality might be classified as CALM, COLLECTED, and CRAZY AS FUCK WHEN YOUR ANGRY. Your horns are curved in a downwards fashion. Although this is occasionally annoying, it sometimes assists you in carrying your JAVELKIND STRIFE SPECIBUS. Of course the javel you are talking about is the kind judges use to dismiss the people. People don't always particularly enjoy your company but you put it of to the side. You believe the main particular reason is because your particular title gives you a sort of built in lie detector.

    You often COMPULSIVLEY CORRECT PEOPLE and feel unlawful when you don't. Your style is usually FORMAL and you can usually be seen wearing a SUIT or TUXEDO. You Flarp occasionally with your do- I mean action figures. And you are always the lawful judge. You like to think outside of the box and have the most interesting court sessions.

    You have a medium shade of GREEN for your blood putting you in a respectable MIDDLE CLASS position. You 7end 7o 5peak in. A \/ery 5harp manner. For now you believe this is all and you think you should be moving along. What will you do next?


    I changed it a lot, clean slate and all. I'm working on the sprite now.

    > Be the Secluded Artist

    Your name is JAXSON NESTRA and you are 6 1/2 SWEEPS.

    You pride yourself in being ONE OF THE BEST ARTISTS ON ALTERNIA and as such receive many commissions from trolls of all bloods, though most of the commissions from highbloods end up being anonymous,which of course comes as no surprise to you considering you are a MUDBLOOD and all. You DESPISE THE LOGIC BEHIND THE HIERARCHY ASSOCIATED TO THE HEMOSPECTRUM, the thought of discriminating against someone just because of the color of their blood doesn't sit right with you. You love to fulfill ART REQUESTS, except the occasional request for NUDE MUSCLEBEAST PORTRAITS, too many bad memories. You enjoy studying other artist's DRAWINGS AND ANIMATIONS so you can learn new ways to IMPROVE YOUR OWN ARTISTIC STYLE even further.

    You enjoy playing all kinds of MASSIVE MULTIPLAYER ONLINE GAMES, which is surprising since you rarely enjoy FACE TO FACE INTERACTIONS. You'd partake in MORE EXTREME ROLEPLAYING every once in a while but ever since THE INCIDENT you prefer to STAY INSIDE to avoid pissing off the wrong person, though you've no idea who that wrong person is.

    You specialize in the POLEARMKIND STRIFE SPECIBUS using any melee weapon that has distance. You prefer using a HALBERD most of the time, but the SCYTHE has always been a close second for you. For as long as you can remember you have made use of the POINT-OF-EMPHASIS FETCH MODUS which allows you to store objects by TAKING A PHOTO OF THE INTENDED OBJECT AS THE MAIN POINT OF FOCUS, being an artist it isn't too hard to find a good angle but more often then you like to admit you've happened to store a tree or two because of the contrast between the colors.

    Your hive is an EXTREMELY TALL BUILDING consisting of five floors in total. You often GAZE OFF OF THE BALCONY to look for interesting landmarks and AREAS THAT MIGHT BE INTERESTING TO PAINT. Your lusus is possibly ONE OF THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE ONES THAT YOU HAVE EVER SEEN, when it is awake it usually BARKS ALL THE TIME WHEN YOU'RE AROUND but whenever you leave it alone in a room for more than a minute then you return to A PIGSTY FILLED WITH TORN ART PIECES AND RUINED FURNITURE.

    Your trolltag is artisticWanderer and you ===> write all your thoughts down on small sheets of paper for future reference.[]

    Re: FANTROLL CRITIQUE THREAD 3: Never ever ever ever use a fantroll sprite generator

    Your name is VESNIA LUELYN and you are 7 SWEEPS OLD.

    You call yourself V however, seeing as you HATE THE NAME YOU WERE GIVEN. You don't feel terribly like a girl and infact refer to yourself as a BOY. You mostly don't associate much with the outside world and wear various devices to HIDE YOUR BADASS PSIONIC POWERS. Actually, they are kind of mid level but they are high enough to get DRAFTED INTO BEING A HELMSMAN. You're SOMEWHAT PARANOID but you come across as considerate to your online chumps, if dry. You sometimes MESS UP on your social interactions but you mean well enough. You are known for eloquent, fact-based written riposte and would totally write for the upper echelons of society if you could-if some jokes didn't go COMPLETELY OVER YOUR HEAD.

    You enjoy roleplaying of the pen and paper kind, though you're not averse to FLARPING, due to its no-powers rule. Your FLARP identity tends to shift every few months in accord with your current interests in the animation front, though some are more fondly remembered by you than others. You avoided TEAM SCOURGE as if they were the plague, which was very fortunate for you. After hearing some nasty rumors, you quit. You have your life and your heath. In recent years, you have loved the pen and paper adventures of RAINBOW DRINKERS, which you prefer to the PRETENTIOUS BOOKS, though you thought they were... okay. You guess.

    You use TDDYBEARKIND, which sooths your frazzled nerves due to your PARANOIA. However, in a grief, it becomes much more useful as KNIFEKIND. When you fight, you get close and personal which has earned you some measure of respect. You avoid using your psionics out of that same paranoia. You bear your preferred FAVORITE URSUS PLUSH and you would love to have your lusus beside you but you don't. You don't talk about your lusus since she died on the front step of your hive, a small, humble affair for one of your caste. You spent a lot of time cleaning up your lawnyard and didn't come online or outside for a week. You really miss her.

    Your trolltag is matriculatedApropos and you speak in an intelligent but mostly soothing manner, capitalizing only references to Yourself.

    Looks solid. I guess maybe the black lines on her shoes might look nicer as a dark brown since it'd be less of a stark contrast but I mean that's pretty much all I can think of so good job.

    Re: FANTROLL CRITIQUE THREAD 3: Never ever ever ever use a fantroll sprite generator

    AHH YES ITS FINALLY DONE
    rip at will
    edit: talksprite up






    Your name is DRAVIL AGFAHY and it is your seventh WIGGLING DAY. Congratulations, you have made it through seven sweeps without exploding in some POORLY PLANNED EXPERIMENT.

    You have also made it through seven sweeps without exploding of SHEER FRUSTRATION, as you routinely note. The source of this anger is your lack of any PSYCHIC ABILITIES whatsoever, especially in COMMUNING WITH THE DEAD, where you are absolutely hopeless. Your psionic uselessness is confounding; after all, you are a LIMEBLOOD. One of your acquaintances is a grade lower, an ochre, and is also incredibly powerful TELEKINETICALLY.

    You are SO FUCKING ENVIOUS. You are LIME with envy.

    Regardless, you stubbornly refuse to give up and abandon PSIONICS, as you did with expressions of ABNORMAL STRENGTH. It's genetic, as you realized, and you simply do not have the HIGHBLOOD GENE. To make up for your lack of any outstanding inborn trait whatsoever, you devote a good chunk of your life to books of RITE and RITUAL, as well as RITES and RITUALS themselves; in the spirit of ceremony, you've torn off every Y and G key on every keyboard you've ever owned, modelling after your very first.

    Your LUSUS is one of the RARE BEASTS descended from the legendary HYDRA. She retains the appearance and abilities of her bloodline. While she is no help in your relentless pursuit of MENTAL POWER, she has taught you the fun in LIES and FABRICATION. HYDRAMOM is the one directly responsible for your flippant attitude towards the truth. That being said, you are ardent about maintaining the INTEGRITY of KNOWLEDGE. It is only in regards to your own state that you stray from COMPLETE HONESTY. Your MOIRAIL takes this in stride, which you are secretly grateful for.

    You share an interest in CHEMISTRY with him. Other things you enjoy include SYMBOLOGY, STUDY OF ANCIENT TEXTS, and RAISING THE DEAD, though you can only be sure that you'd enjoy necromancy, as you have yet to accomplish it. You are also an amateur ARBORICULTURIST. The tall trunks that surround your HIVE were all planted and cared for by you; they arise from a singular STOCK, the material of a TOWERING TREE you visited in your EARLY GRUBHOOD. Growing a specimen that SURPASSES IT has been a CONSUMING AMBITION of yours, although you are prone to saying otherwise.

    You GRIEF THINGS with your trusty BAR STOOL; it occupies the CHAIRKIND Specibus. You STORE THINGS with your trusty BAR TRICKS; they occupy the SLEIGHT Sylladex. In order to remove a desired item, you perform FIXED TRICKS with a PROVIDED GLASS BOTTLE. Missing a move results in a START OVER; dropping the bottle results in the RELEASE OF EVERYTHING YOU'VE CAPTCHALOGUED, which is PRETTY DAMN ANNOYING. Using the chair is much easier; you just hit things and they RECEIVE BLUNT TRAUMA, which is PRETTY DAMN OBVIOUS.

    You usually LIE for little reason. This trait of offhandChicanery [OC] makes itself known as ieour trollTaq, accompanied bie a quirk that likewise manifests with irreqular frequencie. Some trolls have complained about this. You onlie pretend to care.

    Er, I've been working on a Homestuck AU, and wanted to know if I could get some critique on the sprites and profiles. (I won't be making an adventure of them, I just want some advice...)

    The AU is where Jick Egbert (Dad as a 14-year old), Jaxy Lalish, Roke Englonde (The memetic children of Jake and Roxy), and Dina Crocker (A theoretical sibling of Dad), all play SBURB. Er, yeah. So, would it be OK to put their profiles here?

    Of course, we accept pretty much anything that isn't a joke character or cherub.

    name:Malaya Hlayuu age: 6 sweeps
    bio: you live in a lawnring, though originally, your lusus had lived and had taken you to live in the mountains. After you pupal stage, you met a group of trolls somewhat older than you and you even considered them you friends, though slowly, their constant bickering caused you to hate them with deep passion and move somewhere else.
    lusus: gigantic three-eyes tiger
    personality and stuff: you dabble in fine literature, occasionally, some complex biology, architectural design, mythology, and vast number of other things which lead to your being very well read. Your one true passion however is to make extremely detailed silk paintings and spend days obsessing over it. this leads you to be usually tired and hungry however. you have telekinesis and use it to open and close doors and windows and other useless things. the subjects of your paintings are usually images you see in your dreams- foreign deities, strange, almost disturbing worlds and a lot of other things that you somehow gain real-life information from through some indiscernible method. You are a little out of it most of the time because of this. You replace all s's with 5's and your trollian handle is corruptedTale. you are blunt, aggressive, sure of yourself and without any shits for the drama that you hate so much as well as a little horny all the time. You tend not to hold grudges as you usually don't care for how someone wrongs you. deep down, you hate yourself. you hate yourself because you'll waste your life away going with the status flow. you will reach of age and you will join the army, then after years of mindless slaughter and work, you will die by the hands of some insane highblood or some rebellious alien. you want so to go on an adventure and leave everything and everyone behind, and feed you insatiable need for mental stimulation and adventure.

    Re: FANTROLL CRITIQUE THREAD 3: Never ever ever ever use a fantroll sprite generator

    I don't think "graviscirator" (you actually spelled that two different ways in the same paragraph) would be a thing. Based on Kanaya's intro we know two things: The preferred weapon of those who hunt the undead is a chainsaw, and that people who go after the undead with chainsaws are suicidal morons. You don't want to tangle with them, basically.
    I am often on Pesterchum with one of my trolls. Don't be afraid to troll them. (Tags are in spoiler.)
