What's that Aqizzar? I can't hear you over the sound of all this awesome pixel art happening over here.
Ruby's ears were pretty tricky: I used an optical illusion with the over/underlayers to make it look like her ears were folded over, but you could see the pink if you looked at a shallow enough angle. Quite pleased with these ones.
The overlayer only works for the head so far, and, and you have to make sure you've got the area you want transparent set to be 100% transparent on the Alpha Layer, or it'll be borked.
If you showed me what you were working with, I might be able to figure it out.
If it can't be done in MSPaint, it's probably not going to happen then. I don't have any idea what an "Alpha Layer" is.
Yeah, all I can think to do is make the chin stick out away from the head. Maybe I'll spruce up the hair, but I'll try that later if I ever figure out how to do this.
I added an alpha layer using Graphics Gale (my weapon of choice when it comes to pixel art) and tweaked it a bit, since it was showing double mouths if you looked at it from a steep angle. You can set background transparency like this if you upload it to Photobucket, and use the Editing tools too, and I'd venture to guess there's other ways out there too.
And now, on to try the new mechanical bits! Woot!
