I love this little guy. He's absolutely adorable, perfect for something lighthearted and fun. :)
If you're considering experimenting with him, I'm wondering if borders would add or take away from it. This is all pure speculation (I'm not saying it would necessarily make it better), but it might be worth a try. I find generally borders look better if you create them manually as a their own shape rather than just adding borders to every polygon, because then you can vary the width of them a bit.
Another nice start... but... [and I am starting to sound like a broken record... :) ]... You just don't take the time to define elements properly... All the nodes are smoothed, there is no edges and no contrast. You put on a little bit of highlight and shadow but left it utterly inconsistent... The main problem to me is the right foot and hand - try and get into the pose you created - unless you are double jointed or have a serious defect your foot will never point up... ;)
You should also consider your eyes... The jester looks like a 'Sesame Street' creation to me...
I did make another edit - thanks to a procrustinating day when I should have been working on other things ;)
and the svg file...
Stealing this for my profile picture.
Thank you! :P
Very nice! I am wondering if you would mind if i used this little guy as a tutorial teacher for a clicker/incremental project im working on? I cant see where the lisencing info is at? Maybe I am just blind lol. Either way, it looks great, let me know if you would mind if i used him and what credit you want me to cite in the project for it if it is okay with you. Thanks! Also if you would be interested in doing some more art and joining the project let me know :) It will be an incremental/clicker game for Android and pc/web as well as possibly on IOS apple store in the future. I just dont have the developer account paid for and set up wiht them yet or the devices for testing as I do for andoird. Thanks! looking forward to hearing form you shortly! Feel free to email me at jay.fretters@gmail.com if you would like to chat some more. Thanks!
Wow! I love that this is getting used! The blue looks awesome.
Also, since I haven't really gone on here in about 5 years, belated thanks for the really helpful advice and to all who've enjoyed it. :)
frogman210 - I emailed you! I also just changed the licensing, so it's CC0 now.
