Description

Hi guys lol, this is probably really unexpected from me, but been motivated to work on this little thing after spending a bit of time on the DDLC subreddit community recently.

I'm more or less posting here for posterity's sake, so sorry to my usual fans who are confused or aren't into the game!

"Here's the official release of the MC base sprite. No credit is required or anything, so it's completely public domain. Just don't go reuploading it and claiming as your own or anything, haha- Also not keen on the idea of simply recolouring or only slightly editing full assets and claiming it as your own character either. You're welcome to edit it at your own leisure as long as it pertains to the MC, though if you're looking to add to the sheet, be sure to read ahead for info, as I would like to make a community project of sorts out of it and would love some ideas of what kinds of poses and expressions that could be added for future updates.

So a little information on what's going on here: The top row is the set I default to, which is the MC with red eyes according to the DDLC logo theory (that the colours of the letters align with the members of the Literature Club, with the exception of red, which would apply to the MC). Very basic right now, I've got two sets of expressions: A smile and a frown with more relaxed eyebrows, then a secondary smile and frown with more arrogant/confident eyebrows. In the row below is the same thing as above, except this time with the Classic MC's golden eyes.

Now below that which looks like some freaky Monika voodoo stuff are asset work sprites. So you'll see that they're facially featureless (no mouth, no eyebrows), which means that any expression can be added on if you have any level of editing/drawing skill (will be very helpful if I could get some volunteers to help me out, let me know in the comments if you're able to help), and you'll see they're applied to the armless base sprite and combinations of the arms, which will make for easy editing/drawing on new arms for future posing work."

Woow I like it so much *-* I made my own MC too, cuz I find it to "typical protagonist" his design, it is not very my taste. XD 
But your looks very cool.

I think that they should actually show how MC looks in DDLC. But yet again it helps us imagine.
After checking your sprites out, I literally though you were the one creating the other characters. Well done!

Ah yes I know but I was referring to the "Blue eyes white dragon" © Konami Because if you say I said WAIT ITS NOT POSSIBLE GOLDEN EYES WHITE HUMAN ! As a reference To one of Kaibas quotes But I can also see that his eyes are indeed golden

If you zoom in you'll see there's different facial expressions, eye colors, and eyebrow position.

Finally, another take of MC sprite. Good work! Definitely better quality than original sprites.
The alternate golden eyes version is a nice touch to keep in-line with Chibi MC sprite.

Idea for other poses would be either resting hands-out-of-pocket or this pose (though the latter might tricky to separate with rest of sprite)

Anyhow this good work tempted me to make another MC sprite as well.

Thank you very much! Means a lot coming from the first sprite's creator! I've noticed a few creating a bit of conflict probably because those used to yours feel a bit threatened by mine, but my intention was for people to be a bit more open about having attempts as well so people have more options. Would definitely love to see you having another go!

I'll have a go at trying to do those poses, thank you! By the way, not sure if you saw this as well, but I doodled our MC designs on good terms haha: www.reddit.com/r/DDLC/comments…

Don't let the conflict get in straight to your head. It's understandable that some aren't ready for sudden change, especially since your MC design is rather unique.

Just, keep doing the good work.

love is more often completely dependent on your personality and who you are as a person, not your body type

Nice work on the visual novel style from DDLC! Why has nobody done the MC with red eyes as a visual novel-style sprite?
