Storytellers MV Facesets [Updated 01/01/17 - SF_People1_7]

TheStoryteller01 · 2015-10-25T10:19:43+0900

LATEST UPDATE: 1st January 2017 I am still quite busy with RL and projects outside of RPG Maker so I will update this thread with new facesets in irregular intervals only. These facesets are no edits of the stock portraits and also not made with the MV generator but recreations which I made in 12-20-layer paint shop files using the generator parts (mixing male and female and tinkering a lot of elements together myself). The coloring (including hue, saturation and brightness) is also done completely in paint shop to give me more control over the colors and allow me to customize every single element. TERMS OF USE: Everything is made from RPG Maker MV stock media and is free for non-commercial use with RPG Maker projects. Please credit Kadokawa/Enterbrain and TheStoryeller01 if you use it. If you want to use anything for a commercial project get in touch with me, I'm willing to further customize the sets. No redistribution of the originals or of any edits allowed - if you want to share these ressources, please link to this thread. I try to stay close to the appearance of the stock portraits but I also take the sprites into account - and I'm afraid I won't be able to recreate everything in the generator style. I will also try to capture the "character" of the actors, which means if an actor shows a friendly face, I will use more smiles and if an actor has a stone face, the emotions will be more subtle. That way I hope to make the facesets more unique and inspiring for developers. However, the basic emotions for all facesets are the same, with the exception of the last one, which will be custom depending on the character: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad, custom* (from left to right, top row first) . *I've been told, that the last (8th) standard emotion, "ashamed" doesn't really work because it's too close to sad and often not convincing. So I decided to make the last (8th) emotion a custom one depending on the inspiration from the character. I'll always put the newest one here on top and keep the rest in the spoilers. Added another faceset for SF_People1_7. The sprite 7 from the sheet SF_People1 has no stock portrait, so I created one in a 16-layer paint shop file using the MV generator parts. To support the appearance of an old man, I set the head lower onto the neck and also tilted it slightly for most expressions. The hair and clothing are tinkered together from various generator parts. The following emotes are displayed neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad, and for the extra one: doubtful (from left to right, top row first) [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2017/01/sf_people1_7a-mv.png[/IMG] Actor1_1 to Actor1_8 facesets (COMPLETE): Spoiler This is Actor1_1. The colors are not exactly the same as in the stock portrait but they still fit the sprites. [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/actor1_1-mv.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_2. It differs a lot from the stock portrait but I think the new hair color and the custom clothing fit the sprites much better. I also decided to let her keep black pupils. [IMG]http://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/actor1_2-mv1.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_3. The hair color is not the same as in the stock portrait and it fits the sprites only ok. While the stock portrait was too red imo, mine lacks the yellow highlights. I decided to keep the standard skin color and gave him darker eyes because it think that matches the sprite better. [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/actor1_3-mv.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_4. It took some time to get the hair color right but the end result matches the sprites quite well imo. I kept the standard skin color and gave her eyes more brown and less yellow and I also tinkered my own version of the bandana and (slightly) recolored it as well as the clothing to match the sprites better. [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/actor1_4-mv.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_5. I chose a different hair color as in the stock portrait to match the sprites better and tweaked the clothing a bit to make the scarf fit right. [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/actor1_5-mv.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_6. The hair color is different from the stock portrait to match the sprites better and I used an edited version of the male scarf, because I found the female one didn’t look like it matched the sprites well. [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/actor1_6-mv1.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_7. Compared to the stock portrait the hair is a bit darker and more saturated but that matches the sprites better imo. Because I couldn't find a single spot of brown on the sprites, I also recolored the brown clothing parts to blue and darkeded the cloak a bit to match the sprites better. [IMG]https://thestoryteller01.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/actor1_7-mv.png[/IMG] This is Actor1_8. I couldn't replicate the perspective of the stock portrait…

Added another faceset for SF_Actor2_6. The mouth style differs from the one in the stock portrait but I wanted to make at least one female faceset with fuller lips. I also kept the ear visible because it can be seen in the sprites as well. The hair includes a lot of small edits.

The emotions are: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: hostile (from left to right, top row first)

The emotions are: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: doubting (from left to right, top row first)

Added another faceset for SF_Actor2_8. I found the clothing from the stock portrait didn't match the sprites, so I tailored her a new set from generator parts. The hair tone is also different from the stock portrait to match the sprites better and I did not replicate the dirt brushes in the face, because the're not seen on the sprites either.

The emotions are: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: suspicious (from left to right, top row first)

I really like the SF emosets you've done so far! Thank you so much. I was looking for some rugged faces for a futuristic setting and some of these would fit right in. Thanks :)

Added another faceset for Evil_2. I took a lot of inspiration from the stock portrait but I used different clothes and eyebrows to match the sprites better.

The emotions are: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: annoyed (from left to right, top row first)

I was wondering when you would come back to this! XD

Your facesets are still pretty good! Hopefully, you'll be able to finish the Actor 3 facesets soon. :)

Per request, I added another faceset for SF_People3_8. The character is a nurse from a sprite sheet with no existing stock faceset so everything is based on the sprite. In addition to the color pattern from the sprite I also added 2 versions with traditional white and blue clothing (without bowtie) and different hair/eye colors.

The following emotes are displayed: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: embarrased (from left to right, top row first)

Added another faceset for SF_Actor3_2. The stock portrait is showing a masculine women (or an androgynous character), so I used a lot of male generator parts to retain the appearance of the stock portrait. The hair tone is in between the darker game sprite and lighter battle sprite.

The following emotes are displayed: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: hostile (from left to right, top row first)

While the stock portrait is very similar to the above faceset, the sprite’s appearance is that of a regular female character, so I made an alternative version that fits the sprite actually better. I used only female generator parts for this one but made sure to keep the ‘badass’ character from the stock portrait.

Added another faceset for SF_People2_5.The round glasses are tinkered together from stock parts. The faceset differs a bit from the stock portrait but matches the sprites very well.

The following emotes are displayed: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: contrite (from left to right, top row first)

Dang, these are great!

Whenever you have time, could you possibly try to get around to doing SF_Actor3_5 or SF_Actor3_6?

Thanksy!

The following emotes are displayed: neutral, friendly, roguish, happy, surprised, angry, sad and for the extra one: frowning (from left to right, top row first)

@TheStoryteller01 Hi I really like your work, I've made a faceset for sci-fi actor 3-4 that was missing and thought I could share it here.

@TheStoryteller01 Is there a specific reason you choose to work on Generator made faces rather than the stock faces?

@Levolpehh I don't mean to be rude but who are you referring to? You can use an @ symbol and name the person your talking to. Otherwise If your referring to me, I used a stock face not a generator face.

I was referring to Storyteller. My post has been edited for clarification.
