vs

Bing

Though Bing’s general search produces some relevant results,  it’s other “features” are generally useless to me.  Casual user’s may like it, but it’s pretty much low on frills for me.

verdict: If you are a horse with blinders  or in the market for some pvc pipes  “Bing” is king.

from original tees and prints to…

…the mugen content you are  familiar with.

Decided I’d reup the  old beta  if  I couldn’t finish the next build in a timely fashion.  DOWNLOAD IT HERE

added a few new moves, swapped out a bunch of art, still not finalized yet but you can still try it out the betav2HERE
Princess peach UPDATED

:added a couple new moves throw/push vegetable toss expanded the punch and kick animations replaced a lot of placeholder art

:bomb now damages p1, one reason I didn’t place the bomb in the foreground was because Peachs dress clips the ground plane making it look awkward.

:addressed many of the super move issues still I know I probably missed a few ,still don’t understand much what triggers do for them.

:general cleanup of existing attacks

: consolidated the Daisy attacks into one attack, but still Daisy doesn’t have as large a role as I would like, hopefully I can focus on that next release.

:considering she’s not a martial arts expert I’m trying to reason with myself why some of the attacks still don’t feel organic, I’m going to take another look at this.

I simplified the control scheme for the sake of test

“firepower” DF, F, a / DF, F, b

“rampage” a+b

“maximenpointe” x+y

“maximspin” c+z

“DAISY DASH” DB, B, a / DB, B, b

“veggies” D,D,U

“BITE ME” x,x,x,x

“THWOMP” F,x

“Bobombdrop” F,a

“koopa kick” D,U

“Turnip_power” ~D, DF, F, y /~D, DF, F, x

Because I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. there plenty of problems with this

Daisy’s attacks are not very dynamic yet or work too well nor does the super bar usage for them. The palette gets wacky occasionally and some sprites and sounds are placeholder, the execution  of some attacks seem slow so I’ll have to look into that,   in any case . grab it here a new build will be available soon.

I don’t know what I can fix, but I’ll see what I can do.

Here’s some  Daniel Clowes work you may have missed ( if you followed  Daniel Clowes’  work then well, you haven’t) other assorted pictures on  this  Flickr page…. well, get going.

along with resin models here’s  a  few of the designs you can find in the “shop” (eventually) in the form of a poster or tee.  “have you critiqued a tee today?”

Basically anything can be used as a tool . For instance circuit testers or icepicks  can be  tooled  for sculpting or the reverse side of an x-acto.

I just threw in this  guitar I’m working on for a “Josie and the pusscats”  model I did just for sh!ts and giggles, and a rough cut of Agatha from “who? the Hex!”. any updates will go in toys and models per usual.

gave it a "scanned" comic look.

Just a layout for a comic I was considering awhile back. I started creating one shot illustrations in the hopes that a story  idea would develop out of  it. I got this Idea some time ago from a tv segment on how some  old cult movies came into being, basically for this particular movie studio they relied heavily on an illustrator to draw a movie poster and they would then develop a movie or plot  around it.

Another project planned,  thanks snowflake maker.
