Yeah, it'd look pretty nice if done right on the coat-Simon you made.

lol, that'll get the glory soon enough, that Simon is my own creation, I'm gonna take extra care into that one.
here is an improved version of the animation, now all that there is left is touch ups in the frames.

His right arm looks multi-segmented. You might wanna fix the shading at the elbow.

looks cool.
in my opinion,there´s no need for you to improve it.
how´s the first mansion going?

[Inccubus]

The right arm definitely looks disjointed and unnatural. Also, his feet are shifting forward one pixel instead of his legs flexing which is also very unnatural. It's a good start but there is quite a bit of room for improvement. Study how Richter and Fake Trevor are animated and you should be fine.

@ julianbelmontxx1 - I've gotten pretty far in mapping Berkeley Mansion, expect a bit of a overhaul in it since the Original Berkeley Mansion is quite boring in design, I'll post it as soon as I'm ready.

@Inccudus oh yeah, i fixed the arm and legs with some cleanup, this is near final with the animation

[Kale]

Looks awesome, imo. Only thing I can think of is to make this upper half shift forward and down as he goes down, and back up as he goes up.

[Inccubus]

Nice job! Only thing I'd change is that square noggin. Looks like you have one too many pixels. ^___^

Nope, the arm still looks odd. It's those grey pixels on his arm. And his elbow sticks out a pixel or two too far. And on his head, I'd suggest getting rid of the top left pixel of his hair (the corner). It'd make it look more natural. Also, try adding a little more shading to the hair.

I should also point out that his hair isn't moving with accordance to the rest of the sprite itself. I'll try to explain it so you can get idea. As is, when Simon moves up, his hair also moves up too. In reality when a person with medium or long hair gets up the hair will not follow suit. It will only be effected when said person moves down that the hair will have a delayed reaction and lag in the air for a second before following the person in the direction he moved. So as the sprite moves up in his stance, the hair shouldn't move at all. After he peaks and starts to move down again then the hair should delay falling then fall down and meet the rest of the sprite.

meh, I'll come back to it in time, I'm gonna work on more of Berkeley Mansion, but not today, today is Dev-free day as I noticed All I was thinking was in dev mode and it really bothered me how your own yet to be born creation haunts you. I went to the beach today and freed the project from my mind, then came up with a great Idea.
There will be no unlockable characters, instead of doing the hair thing I had a new Idea.
Castlevania gets a Classic cV2 simon redone, that's if the creator will agree for me to use his stuff in my game
Super Castlevania gets the Simon I'm Featuring at the moment, If this is done, He gets new colors for his armor.
Castlevania Chronicles get the coated simon from my Da page.

All 3 Simons are gonna play Differently and will resemble thier counterparts well.

[Claimh Solais]

You can bet your ass Ill always play Chronicles mode. :3

[KaZudra]

Permission Granted, here are the 3 Simons, sporting a new recolor of Super Simon with a smaller sword.

[Claimh Solais]

I love that coat Simon.

[uzo]

Oh hey look, it's Simon, Trevor, and Jonathan Morris.
