so are the wings going to be usable? having Pegasus that can fly would be an interesting addition

They won't be a first priority,

 but I want to have them working for NPC pegasi at least and player controlled characters would come after that.

Right, I am growing more fond of the pegasus as I've been working with them. 

who knows, maybe I'll build some fun flying mechanics for them. ^v^

have you considered character customization or is that too difficult?

Raynaron In reply to ThunderShine524 [2013-09-08 00:25:50 +0000 UTC]

I'm planning on it. Textures and color patterns wouldn't be too hard. 

even getting things prepared for custom cutie marks. 


One thing that could be interesting would be changes in the shape of the character. 

But I have yet to look into how difficult that would be to do.

looking forward to seeing how it works out have you looked into getting permission from hasbro for the whole thing?

Raynaron In reply to ThunderShine524 [2013-09-09 00:09:09 +0000 UTC]

I'll probably do that after

1) all the various asset styles and what not that could be impinging on legal stuff are done or concepted out.

2) I have the game copyrighted so they can't turn around and copy me or take away my ownership X3

I think the next one will be a while off some time early next year.

I come perhaps as the only person who can find something wrong with this, that being that the wing feathers individually feel to "geometric" as in "perfect" and lack the realism of wear, (or of proper shape). Though keep in mind that this is quite good, and it may be preferable to my suggestion. (maybe there is some benefit in simplicity)

I would like to ask, why did you decide to go with jointed (princess) wings instead of conventional (standard) wings? I assume that you intend to give this pair to higher ranking ponies? with the lower ranking ponies having conventional wings?
I personally associate the jointed wings as being false (a magical conjuration) and the conventional wings as being "natural", you can get more information to my beliefs from a post I made in your game forum.

Raynaron In reply to anonymous14z [2013-08-30 05:31:19 +0000 UTC]

Well, simplicity is a benefit in itself.
I may either tweak the final shape or have a masked texture that looks like feathers, or just go with what I have.
Just depends on which I like better.

These are my stylized version of standard Pegasus wings, high ranking would be even more impressive in size and style.
Of course I have yet to design those if implemented.
The look of small wings seemed too silly and unrealistic to me (also a pain to rig properly as they lack normal wing anatomy).
I decided on this style since I'm looking for a realistic style that's more my own. ^v^

I would like to ask, what is your backup plan if your project is aggressed? (the kind that requires a lot of money to properly fight, which corporations tend to have lots of)

Raynaron In reply to anonymous14z [2013-08-30 19:58:21 +0000 UTC]

Well, if I couldn't have my ponies for some strange reason.
I have other ideas for non-pony titles I could do.
Or I could apply for a position at an existing studio.

Of course that would happen after I tried my best to reason with those against my current game.
I may even start at a studio while I work on my existing title. All depends on how things pan out. 
But I highly doubt any copyright or trademark infringement exits with my project.

You just made an alicorn XD

Though, I seriously can't wait to see your finished product. It looks like it's going to be amazing!

These actually came out very nice, needless to say, I'm a fan. I think what I enjoy most about them is that they're fitting to your own style. They're not a copy or a cover of MLP wings, but rather, you modeled them yourself from scratch. Very impressive, sir! Gotta admire that spirit!

Raynaron In reply to classicEIGHT [2013-08-29 04:38:53 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, ^v^

I'm quite happy with how they turned out.
They're also all rigged up and ready for animation.
and they transition nicely from open to closed as well.

Its certainly influencing me to add more Pegasus mechanics in there.
