Need help paperdolls

[Cocolharicot]

 

Hello,

after doing my first paperdolls, that's what gives in games ^ _ ^

 

How to avoid this?

You can use software like Photoshop or GImp to move the paperdolls to the correct format.

It seems rather normal to me. Those are quite neat paperdolls imo

 

More seriously though, paperdolls are not automatically adjusted to fit in your PC hand, you have to make them more like this (minus the character, i did this in 2 min to show you)

Thank you

You can use pretty much any image editing software for paperdolling. I make all my art in Microsoft Paint and only use Paint.net to make backgrounds transparent, for example. Some really cool guy made a pretty neat tutorial on paperdolling, it should help you realize what the problem is with yours (which is that paperdolling does not automatically do all the work for you)

What software do you use to do this?

I personally don't use GIMP. I use photoshop. However all you really need to know is how to move layers around and how to rescale images. Search for videos around YouTube and you should find a step by step guide for rescaling and Layers.

1. Take your full sprite sheet

2. Add a paperdoll frame for each sprite frame

3. Erase the sprite below

 

Your paperdoll sheets should be 4x4, just like your sprite sheets, so that each frame of the sprite has a corresponding paperdoll frame. Really, take a look at the guide I linked you.
