Here are the fairy Tail wiminz more or less complete. Got Erza, Lucy, Juvia and Mirajane.
Let me know if you want more from the series or something else or if i should change something in the current girls. Did what I could with battlesprites.

Super, I'll take a looksie bit later

[Lurker]

Cool. I'll keep polishing these and maybe make a few more Fairy Tails. Not a whole lot of good images around for the less popular girls though.

[Lurker]

Uploaded the wrong file. This is the proper up to date Fairy Tale pack.

I took a look at gelbooru, it's possible to make a solid pack for Wendy Marvell, and maybe for Lisanna Strauss (not sure about her without proper search).

For some reason the game incorrectly works with Erza battle sprite, position is entirely wrong. I bet it's related to unusual picture proportions.

Lisanna will be tricky but ill give it a go.


I've already started Wendy and might try to do Levy McGarden too.


And yeah ive noticed the sprite too. Gonna see if i can sort it out somehow.

[DarkTl]

Hm, some portraits have a lot of white pixels around. Not just a few, but really a lot.

In such cases it's better to either skip portrait for this emotion altogether, don't delete background if it's monotonous or edit it in some editor to reduce the amount of pixels. Because it looks very bad in the game, any dark background makes it all very visible.

[Xela]

Best sprites are without weird poses or huge weapons that warp it's proportions. We may introduce corrections for that at some point but definitely not before beta. Even the pic I offered as an example can be used.

Gonna figure out wtf is dummies problem soon

[DarkTl]

For Erza I would used this one for example.

[Lurker]

Was a height thing.
Just thought that normal standing one wasnt battely enough. But i'll switch out if you prefer.

[DarkTl]

Oh, btw we don't have to make portraits for all emotions, unless character has very suitable pictures without backgrounds, thus making portraits very simple.

Sad, indifferent, happy are the main ones, without them any pack is incomplete. Angry, uncertain and shy are very useful too. Others are highly optional.

Cool been meaning to ask about that. Been trying to make as many portrait images as possible, well for as many emotions as possible. Don't think any of the important ones are missing. If so let me know.

[DarkTl]

I actually learned a lot about graphic editors making portraits and sprites for pytfall packs 
I knew close to nothing about it 3 years ago, now I can remove almost any background flawlessly.

But the game is built to not force people to do the same thing.

[Lurker]

The image you used as an example should have been removed. But yeah some of em prolly has some white around em. Why i remade a few of them to get away from that.
Some were made in abit of a rush though so thats why xD Will sort them out.
Is there a point to them having no background though? If it doesnt matter it seems like you can just skit doing it?
