Tsarmina's Laboratory

Tsarmina · Mar 17, 2014

Good morning! Good night! Good anything-in-between!

Now that I've gotten smart enough to resolve issues with photo uploading, I've decided to start a resource showcase! Though, as you may see, it's a laboratory rather than a resource showcase...mostly because I'm experimenting and you have to understand that some of the mad scientist's experiments are going to go boom.

Just a heads-up.

Spoiler

I do a lot of art, though you probably wouldn't know it since I don't post a lot of art. (This is due to my inability to cope with the forum's picture sharing system, which gave me problems for a pretty long time. But no worries, I finally got it sorted out!) I've only been doing manga/anime/CG-style art for a few years. This is actually my fifth year doing this style of art, and I love it. However, though I have limited experience with manga, I'm a natural-born artist and do much more than just anime people. But I have to say manga is my most natural style, and works best with my ability.

Spoiler

This is just a little acronym catchphrase mabobber that I coined myself. I know a lot of artists (and non-artists) have TAC (terms and conditions) or TOU (terms of use), but since I'm an odd and definitely original person, I have my own way of telling you my rules: CATs! My Conditions And Terms!

I know, I'm too proud of myself. ^^"

~Don't claim as your own~

~Non-commercial only~

~No distribution~

~Request refusal is my right~

~Nothing sexual/explicit~

~Please don't edit~

~Credit me (Tsarmina)~

~I can use and share request material~

So, I'm guessing this is why you came here; to look at the ~~resources~~ experiments! Some of them go kaboom, and some of them turn out to cure cancer, but whichever way, the mad scientist is posting them for you.

[SIZE=14.4px]Lavender in full is finally here! [/SIZE]

She's probably one of my fullest sets so far. I have a thigh-high portrait, a regular 272x288 waist-up portrait, a face, and two sprites. Isn't that amazing??

From left to right: full portrait, regular portrait, face, walking 4d sprite, step animation gardening sprite <3

Spoiler

The sprite was heavily modified--I used a sprite from Hermit Crab as a reference.

Spoiler

[SIZE=13.6364px]Two portrait sizes, a face, and a sprite, because I know all too well how useless it is to have a portrait if you don't have a sprite to go along with it. =.=[/SIZE]

-Sarah

Spoiler

Sarah, aka Vivaldi, is a princess based on one of my friends. I created Sarah as the main character for a game for her birthday

A few upsetting things about Sarah is that she has some annoying white space, which can show up irritably on a dark background. For this reason, I'll let you edit any of Sarah's emosets to take the white spaces out only. Don't edit anything else, please!

I might make different skin variations for Sarah later, but for now it's just this ^^" Enjoy!

-Amberique

Spoiler

I'm going to make an emoset for her...eventually. She's a character in my Alice story (which may be a game sooner or later, depending on how my topic in Theory and Development turns out [Hm...This One...Or that One...?]). I know she looks a little...blank...but I may change her a little later.

Thanks to Penta for the (heavily edited) portrait base!

-Biddy

Spoiler

For anyone who's read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, I'm making a game based on the book! So here's my portrait for Biddy; I went ahead and made emosets for her...

Thanks to Penta again for the base :3

-Ariana

Spoiler

I designed her dress so you could use as a mermaid if you want~ ^-^ And I remembered to resize, so no worries!

-Cordelia

Spoiler

Enjoy!

-Rapunzel

Spoiler

It's hard to tell now that I resized, but the hair was really beautiful at 200% T-T Oh well. There's a full emoset for you guys, and tonight I'll check poll results. (Sorry, I know that was fast...)

Also added Rapunzel in the OP ^-^

-RESTAFF: Toadette

Spoiler

NOTE: Toadette is IN NOVEMBER RESTAFF!

-Sughayyer's Isis

Spoiler

I originally colored her with brown hair so her hair wouldn't be a total pain for me to color (since it has lots of highlights, curves, and bends), but the black recolor didn't turn out as defined as I hoped. I actually like the brown version better. Anyway, you can copy/paste her expressions onto the black-haired one because I was way too lazy to re-express both the brown and black versions ^^"

Black-haired Isis, with original brown versions:

Enjoy! I think I may use her hairstyle again on someone else, I truly enjoyed coloring it ^-^

-Ariel

Spoiler

No, not the mermaid, but say hello to MY Ariel. She's very near and dear to my heart, however I think she looks a little more "farmgirl" than I would like =.=" You might've seen her disastrous concept sketch in

Slenderman's Family, however I assure you that she's much better now ^-^

Say hello~

A few emos with more to come; Ariel's emoset will be HUGE as she is an MC and a fave of mine. And just for fun, I did some wacko recolors XD

Xmas Version (though Christmas is over):

Blonde version:

Golden eyes (I was completely doing these at random...)

Evil version?

Enjoy! ^-^

-Jeff-Andonuts's Eunike

Spoiler

What would you do-o-o, for

~~a Klondike bar~~ metallic hair? ^-^ I created Eunike with a Egyptian-age alchemist in mind, therefore she is a little resemblant to that. And yes yes, metallic hair! (I was practicing gold...*shamefaced*)

A full portrait emoset, a face as you requested, and a whole lot of pretty kohl-eyed girl coming right atcha. Enjoy!

Something's off about her face (it bothers me) and I don't know what, if you happen to notice something PLEASE tell me. Anyway, enjoy!

-Coralie

Spoiler

Do you guys remember that time way long ago when you voted to see who the next portrait would be? Well...I finally finished Coralie. She is my largest masterpiece in terms of portrait art so far, and probably will be for a long time! I started her way back when. Now, a few months and 29 layers later, here is your beautiful yet kick-butt princess, Coralie! <3

She was even more gorgeous at full percentage, but I had to shrink her to fit the Ace portrait sizes. T^T I'm not going to make her emos for a long time because I'm tired of working on her (and I procrastinated on her anyway haha), but enjoy for now! Isn't she beautiful???? >< (Fruit of my labors...)

Sorry, I'm making a fuss. Also thanks to Tukiji Nao for the strawberry hair idea :3

-Elise

Spoiler

Meet Elise from Ariel.

Without bow:

Without hat:

She looks like Cecillia

Wait a moment....

Here:

It's Cecillia! Cecillia, you inspire me even unconsciously. ^-^"

-Jeff-Andonuts's Xander (10 and 18 years versions)

Spoiler

-Lorelle

Spoiler

Also part of the Ariel series ^-^ Lorelle has an older twin, she's the daughter of the late leader of a secret government-rebelling organization, and can't fight unless you count her umbrella clumsiness. She's sweet, warm, and gullible, but also sensitive. At least in my mind. You can make her evil if you want or something, though she honestly doesn't look the type to me.

Emos:

-Sughayyer's Lucy

Spoiler

Here's Lucy, a stern-faced, green-haired elf for a request.

Enjoy! No emoset, though.

-RESTAFF: Iris

FEBRUARY 2014 RESTAFF.

Spoiler

Iris, the rainbow goddess, is part of

-RESTAFF: Thetis (see matching Battler)

Spoiler

Thetis is a Greek naiad/water spirit, often described as silver-footed.

-Safire

Spoiler

I'm back! I have a new portrait for you ^^

Safire, from Ariel (as you can tell I'm working my way through the Ariel cast):

Looks comfy to sleep in~

Safire is one of my fave, FAVE characters from the story/game...plus the ringlets were just a lot of fun to do =^-^=

Here's a base, for you artists who'd like to give her a different set of clothes:

Since it's a base, technically you could call it NSFW =.=

Spoiler

...

I apologize. I didn't realize her chest was so big. I'm usually a conservative artist as you can tell...Now I feel weird. >.>

-Alexis

Spoiler

Another portrait base, this time a neko! ^^

-Louisa

Spoiler

Anyway, a resource for you guys today. Say hello to Louisa, also part of the Ariel series--I've only made the base so far, and I'll continue working on her later~

-Lisbet

Spoiler

Also from the Ariel cast. I'm really starting to get through them =^-^= Lisbet is neat, orderly, and peaceful. She is in line with life. ^-^

Base, per usual. Enjoy!

-Lilian

Spoiler

Lilian is Ariel's best friend. (I think I should really make a topic for my Ariel chars, but--nahhh. Too lazy ;p) I spent a good deal of time cleaning up the coloring around her curls, which I have to say I'm proud of. I think my hair coloring has gotten better since I did my last ringlets in that style (Coralie, since Safire's curls are slightly different.) That modest, slightly cloudy look on her face will be rarely used when I finally make a game with full emos--she is extremely expressive ^-^ Lilian likes shopping, beaches, and scones. ^-^

-Dawn

Spoiler

Hey look! Tsarmina FINALLY made a resource that isn't just a base so people can actually use the resources in their games! It's been a while. It's just that bases are so handy, especially for outfit swaps to match sprites.

You might remember her from an art tutorial on eyes that I did, like, a couple months ago. (Sorry I haven't updated the minilab. I'm just lazy with tutorials haha). Well, her hair is finally colored, and I think she looks awesome. (The shading on her lips was nicer at 200% though T_T) There's a reason why her hair is so long--but that's not really something I'll be talking about here~ Speculate all you want; I'd enjoy it.

Dawn likes fire, fantasy tales, and hates politics. (There's a reason for that, too.)

-Tina (aka Red Riding Hood)

Update!! ^-^

Spoiler

Introducing a new character, Tina. Who, in theory, could definitely be a Little Red Riding Hood...uh, minus the hood. But I'm not good at drawing hoods!...I can make her a cap later. XD

Tina is also from Ariel. She's a twelve-year old archery prodigy and is totally sweet, sweet little girl. <3 I've heard there are a lot of fanfics out there about Little Red falling in love with the Wolf or something crazily convoluted like that. Well, here she is.

Though at her age, I guess that would just be creepy. ^^"

-Esthetique (Esther)

Spoiler

This is Esthetique from Ariel~ She goes by Esther for short. I have her in two awesome versions--hair down and hair up.

Hair up:

(1. Full with eyeshadow, 2. Full without eyeshadow, 3. Base with e/s, 4. Base without eyeshadow)

And untied hair:

If you look through my laboratory, you'll notice maybe that there's something special about Esther. See if you can figure out what it is!

-Otaku's Misaka Mikoto

Spoiler

Resource done today...for Otaku, I present Misaka Mikoto ^-^

This is for a fangame that he's making. As always, she looked better at 200% percent...

-Susie

Spoiler

Introducing yet a new character (since I love portraits ofc), Susie.

And yes, she's actually BOTH a base and real portrait, so you guys can actually use her for your games and for your own art practice if you want! \o/ Double win. Enjoy. I had fun doing her eyes and skin ^^ And her hair too. Well, most of it. Well, almost all of it. I really didn't like doing the shirt because it was boring.

Well, it was kind of fun too.

Just accept the portrait. =.="

-Azalea

Spoiler

Well, here's a base for Azalea that I'll release today. I don't know if braids like this are physically possible, but it sure looks nice :3

-Nick

Spoiler

He's just a base so far, and I know I could use a lot of work drawing guys. I'll be hopefully doing more of these in the future :3 Mostly just for practice, but if it works for you, it works.

-Tsarie-version RTP Actor Mira

I'm back with the promised portrait.

It's a remake of the RTP Actor Mira!

Spoiler

VS

Tsarie remake of portrait VS RTP version (I don't know who made the full portrait, but it wasn't me)

-Li-Ying "Diana" Yang

Spoiler

Base. I hope you guys appreciate her, because I drew her all in one day--and then the Painter file got corrupted. So I had to start her all over, from scratch. And don't get me started on backups! Because guess what? The backups were corrupted too! *mind blown* So yeah, I redrew her in an hour or two. Hello, Asian hair

Diana is also part of my Ariel series, yes she's Asian. Her name is Li-YIng "Diana" Yang (洋丽滢) which means "pretty" and "clear." Her last name means "sea."

-Reyna

Spoiler

Anyway, back into the rhythm. The new portrait is Reyna, who sports an incredible side ponytail if I do say so myself :3 Side ponytail in question was inspired when I saw Serah Farron from Final Fantasy. Though I've never played the games myself, I happened to find a picture and decided long wavy side ponytails were officially cool. ^-^

A little background for Reyna; she has a (fraternal) twin named Eunice, she's part of the Ariel series, she has a smart mouth and a sassy attitude....basically our quintessential cool girl. ^^ I may update her ponytail...could use some extra strands....but for now she's staying as is.

-Noel who-you-could-also-use-as-a-Tsarmina-cameo

Spoiler

Portrait!!!

Whoa! Is it Tsarmina or what?

Well, when I first created Noel, who the portrait is, I didn't have Tsarmina/myself in mind. But hey, she's probably the closest we'll get to someone who actually looks somewhat like me. So yay! It's me! It's Noel!

I did all the coloring today in like....an hour and a half....cleaning up those pigtails was seriously annoying. I don't know what's with me and long, swirly tied-up red hair recently. (Also, don't mention the uneven pigtail length...)

^-^ Enjoy!

-Melanie

Spoiler

This is Melanie...she is NOT a character in Ariel (nice to have a break from that, huh?) but she is an edit, actually. An edit of one of my own portraits....Lucy, if you can recognise her.

-Soizelle Ravenscar

Spoiler

Soooo, I got asked to join Ace Academy to fill in the role of the Fire/Lightning teacher, since he went MIA. No problemo! Here's the teacher:

Soizelle~ I made her in a hurry. I'm a busy person, okie? Anyway, feel free to use her if you like.

Who is Soizelle though? Do you remember the 3 forms of Tsarmina? (Tsarmina, Minzy, and Ies) I discovered my fourth aspect recently, who is, yes, Soizelle. (pronounced swah-ZELL) She's the flirtatious side of me, the girly side who loves to dress up and wear cute clothes.

Obviously, she doesn't come out a lot. ^^

-RESTAFF: Miku Hatsune

Miku portrait and face:

Spoiler

Save the face as $face. Some anime stuff at last! I know you guys were waiting for it.

-Apple Portrait

Spoiler

AWWW ISN'T HE SO CUUUUTE AWWWW *squealing*

-Veronique LeMarjiette

Spoiler

My first TsarGen makes me so happy hehe ^-^ With a sprite too, based from the famitsu generator. Aren't you guys proud? I am! ^-^

-Nadeshiko (Diana Edit)

Spoiler

I had to remove Diana from Ariel, but I decided to combine her portrait with Nadeshiko's and we now have an interesting result. I don't really like it that much...I guess I'm not one for edits, hehe. ^^

-Nemesis

Spoiler

[SIZE=13.6364px]Also, had some fun making a base of Nemesis! She's a model, meant to be very small and petite with a large head and lots of hair. LOTS. You can't see, but it falls all the way to the floor (and beyond. She's like Rapunzel.

) I used slightly thicker lines for her portrait, and I hope that doesn't end up clashing with my own artwork. (lol)[/SIZE]

-RESTAFF: Neve

Spoiler

Sprite was generated by famitsu, edited by myself~

Save the face as $face.

-Elsa (Frozen)

Spoiler

In honor of one of my favorite animated movies of all time!

-Anna (Frozen)

[SIZE=13.6364px]Added up someone to match with Elsa [/SIZE]

Spoiler

I really should do more characters from movies and such. Also, I used to hate doing braids, and now I love them. XD I went a little cray-cray on the coloring but it's too much fun. Hehehe~

-Brie

[SIZE=13.6364px]A portrait, but a tall one this time. [/SIZE] [SIZE=13.6364px] I also cropped/resized to fit my usual size, and added a face for good measure. o3o Isn't she pretty? I think so ^-^[/SIZE]

And yes, her portrait and face have different expressions. XD

-Ralph (RTP Actor)

Spoiler

ooo yeah. I wonder who this is?

I definitely haven't seen him before in any RTP-based game ever....

The portrait sizing is a little awkward, mostly because I couldn't figure out what the bottom half of his armour was supposed to look like. ;_;

-Pyrrha Nikos (RWBY)

In honor of Monty Oum, who passed away

Creator of RWBY. Pyrrha is hands-down one of my fave characters <3

If you want her sprite, you'll have to grab it off the Tuttenkanbo website, because that's who this portrait is for :3 So, not my sprite. She is a faithful portrait, though!

The happy title screen for mrmilkman. All colors, no linearts involved ^-^ Below is the non-titled version.

And some clouds for you if you wanna animate them:

-RESTAFF: Frosted Windows Set

Spoiler

My Frosted Windows CG Set is for January's ReStaff.

They were intended as a panorama but I decided to drop that, but a lot of them look similar. And yes, they are blurry on purpose. All my best CGs are blurry. ^-^

-Big Fat Mantis's Title Screen

Spoiler

65 layers later...

Mantis's Title Screen, at last!!!! *so relieved*

My first time ever drawing guns, to be honest. I tried my best. ^^ It took me so long to do this! About the equivalent of four portraits, most of which have way too many layers. I mean, I knew this would take a while, but 65 layers seems kind of excessive.

I was going to put the title but couldn't figure out where...so yeah. I know my background skills are pretty mediocre so here's a transparent background .png version:

-RESTAFF: Class Award Cuties ^^

Spoiler

Gatherer: Foraging and picking natural plants for food.

Herder: Shepherding animals like adorable sheep.

Horseriding: Wandering through the woods on horseback.

-RESTAFF: Autumn Trees~

Spoiler

Another CG. Autumn Trees~

-Wood Surface

Spoiler

To take a break from portrait work, I decided to let off some steam and just did a lazy background of a random wood surface today. I have no idea how this could be utilized, maybe as a notice board or something? Beats me. \o/ Feel free to use it as you see fit. ^^

-Metal Surface

Spoiler

A simple shiny metal screen with lilting grain and a hard light source. ^^

-Blue Sky with Clouds

Spoiler

A (rather bland) blue sky CG that probably isn't possible in real life.

-Wood Surface 2

Spoiler

Another wood CG, tried more for a birch-ish sort of look. Also went a little crazy with the knots ^^" The second knot reminds me of swirled pudding or something. XD

-Radial Grass (courtesy of Photoshop)

Spoiler

A really odd grass CG while I was messing around with blurs and soft shadows.

-Night Sky with Stars

Spoiler

A night sky practice while I was working on brickbuster's screenie today.

-Brickbusterx's Title Screen

Spoiler

TItled and nontitled vers. ^^

-RESTAFF: Garden CGs

Spoiler

My content for April 2014!

-ZoroarX's Mountain CG

Spoiler

Mostly it was because of the background and the metal texture. You have no idea how hard it is to meld that metal texture together as if it were real armor....my first time doing it, too. :3 But it's done, with a lot of help from EB's default battlebacks. Hats off to those who make them--they were lifesavers!

-RESTAFF: Sci-fi Cockpit

Spoiler

Watercolor Scifi cockpit for May

-RESTAFF: Gears-Theme Game Over

Spoiler

Cool color themes as usual, because I love me some cool color themes. For May's ReStaff.

-Citrus Orange Letters Title

Spoiler

Here's a title/screen that I did for a contest yesterday, just to whip something up. (I could use the practice!) I was obviously working more on the title than the actual screen, as you can tell. Dunno if anyone can actually use this but feel free

It's not for a game I'm making. I think I would love to do more fruit ones! This was too much fun <3

And of course they're blurry. What did you expect?

-Looping Leaf Overlay

Spoiler

-Tsarmina Close-Up <3

Spoiler

Backgroundless and backgrounded. :3 It's formatted for the VXA game screen--the width is 544 pixels--but the height is a little tall. I guess you could scroll it or something, in the strange case you want me holding an ILY heart in your game. :S Maybe for credits or something. I dunno.

-Abstract Design Swatches Set I

Spoiler

-Flower Title2

Spoiler

It's a Title2, on transparent background. Pretty flowers, whee!

I owe Pse for this one. These are their graphics.

-RESTAFF: Blue Water

Spoiler

-Wooden Board Background

Spoiler

I was working on a tutorial screen for Sugar Sweet today and decided to make a nice wooden board as the background. It's actually a blown-up version of part of the wooden sign in the RTP Outside_B that I retouched to make high-res again (and a little worn on the edges!)

-Lily

Spoiler

I had inspiration randomly for a battler, so here's a quick one for you

Literally, the personification of a lily.

I also did recolors; a lavender version and a ghost version.

Enjoy~

-RESTAFF: Thetis (see matching Portrait)

Spoiler

-Ruby Rose

Spoiler

-Meatbun/Peach/Upside-Down Heart/What-Have-You

Spoiler

Okay, so as you probably know, I've expressed on many occasions that I cannot do and never will do pixel art.

If you believed this, then you may consider me a liar T-T I decided to try my hand at some basic pixel art and came up with the entirely too-simple-yet-adorable...uh...thing. I started him out as a peach...but then he was too fat...and turned pink...I dunno. =.="

He comes in two colors so far: pink and gold. If you need any others just give me a holler because it's an easy Hue/Saturation adjustment.

He's from scratch. And he floats, as a bonus.

-Bread Slice

Spoiler

Another weird food sprite. In my opinion, not as great as the peachbun one, but still cute nonetheless.

He, too, bounces.

-Apple Sprite

Spoiler

Yet ANOTHER sprite...I'm just having a sprite wave. It's another foodie. I guess this could be used for a silly food-fight RPG or something.

It's an apple! YES--HE BOUNCES...

-Down sprites

Spoiler

Here I have a random (and not completely full) sheet of Down/Damage sprites. They're made from various sprites that I've gathered, so you have to properly credit...

The first girl is made with the generator, so just credit me. The first two on the second row, you must ALSO credit CarmenCMS, The girl with the red arrow is from usui.moo, the girl with the red pigtails credit GrandmaDeb, and the girl on the bottom left credit EB, w0lfie, and PentagonBuddy. (That's a lot of different credits...) And for all the others, you must also credit soramani kagome-kagome.

These aren't intended as rips or anything, and I believe that they can be edited.

Enjoy~

-Sprite Outfits/Generator Parts

Spoiler

Today I decided on outfit swapping and therefore came up with a whole bunch of sprite pieces for you. They're mo paste-it-yourself rather than generator parts, but they'll do.

Credit Tabino Yadokari in addition to me.

Uh...yeah. Sorry about the one that's missing the last row

<(...)

So there you are, lots of spur of the moment sprite outfits, some of them are obviously for one gender and some can be used for both...enjoy!

Continued:

Body-less head for a young lady. I believe the original is an edit by...uh...GrandmaDeb?

Flower accessories lifted off the RTP Isabelle. I put it in as a sheet.

Gems that go on one side of the head (that's why the second row is blank.) The bottom row may require a little fiddling, but nothing you guys can't handle, right?

Here are even more sprite generator/parts/pieces/what have yous for you all.

Thinking on it, these gen parts mixed with your own character heads would be great with MA's Composite Graphics or Victor's Visual Equip for outfit changes. XD

-Frontal Sprite NPC's

Spoiler

Across the top are Tsarie, Minzy (old ver.), and Ies

Second row are Minzy (new ver.), Sakura Kinomoto (Cardcaptor Sakura), and Nunally vi Britannia (Code Geass)

NOTE: Tsarie, Minzy, and Ies are my OCs. Use them with care!

Spoiler

A Tsarmina sprite ^-^ For those of you who want one! I'm working on the portrait. One of my friends requested a sexy Tsarmina soooo....I tried....but I'm not sure how it turned out. XD

-Extended Gate

Spoiler

A special gate that I had to edit for Celianna's castle--if you don't know what I'm talking about, it's in her parallax set. That way your castle's doors can actually open. This gate is an edit of the RTP one.

Lavender, in her straw hat, will take care of all of your gardening needs! <3

And I spent a while making edits and doing pixel art to make her actually garden for you:

For those of you who don't understand how this works, the animation in-game looks like this:

-Baskets of Stuff

Spoiler

[SIZE=13.6364px]Baskets of stuff.[/SIZE]

These are interesting two-tile-tall baskets of random junk. Most of the stuff is default RTP material, but credit Ying for a few small things -- and me, because, yes, I used some of my own art to make these.

You can use these as parallax tiles or as events. The latter is handy because you can make your character "pick up" the basket by making it disappear/interactable.

-Iconset

Spoiler

Most of theese are RTP recolors, but the row third from the bottom contains icons that I made. (Notably, the sucky-looking ones.) I also put my recolors/icons with the original RTP set so it's easier to transfer to your games.

The third row from the bottom is mostly mine. The little red shawl is an RTP edit (not a recolor), the orange dress is half edit and half hand-drawn, and the key lime pie, banana, lemon, lime, and strawberry are also completely mine.

The dress with the silk wrap is a dress/scarf combo that I edited, the sunflower thingy and the bow are both minor edits, the pencil is a major edit (yes, it is an edit

) and the pink bow is a recolor of my edit. Phew! Pixels still aren't my thing, I think. My icons are pretty bad right now, but I'm working! ^-^

-AlliedG's Gunshell Icons

Pretty self-explanatory

-Looping A5 Tiles

Spoiler

Hey guyyysss. I started to creep into tile-making today, which, I discovered, is NOT my forte. Oh well. At least I tried.

Two tiles which loop (almost) seamlessly:

And screenies to show both of them:

-Autodesk Bedroom Set

Spoiler

They're already in tileset format, but no, they're not pixel art, so bahhh. I hope you like soft-style art tiles as well. ^^" Special thanks to Autodesk Homestyle for the design ideas.~

-Autodesk Gothic-and-Black Full Interior Set

Spoiler

A dashing set of Gothic and black tiles--a full interior house including 2 couches, 2 beds, 4 tables, 2 cabinets, 1 mirror, and 2 looping A5 tiles. WHEW! Is that enough for you guys?

Thanks to Autodesk for furniture ideas and reference once again!

-Exterior Plants Set

Spoiler

Exterior Plants tiles, including 2 trees, 3 bushes, and 1 sprouting seedling. Perfect for more realism-styled games--they aren't exactly RTP, I know ;_;

Additionally credit Autodesk!

-Open Seashell Tiles

Spoiler

They don't really blend with....anything. :\ Oh well!

They're meant for parallaxing, but they're set up in grid format if you want them for that too. ^-^

-Exterior Edits

Spoiler

Houses, trees, signs, random window?

It was a good investment of time

I can't take all the credit, I borrowed a few tiles from Mack. ^-^ Those houses though...I'm happy with myself ^^

-Heart Throne

Spoiler

An edit of the Inside_B throne

-Grape Trellis

Spoiler

I used tiles and icons and a bit of handiwork to create a grape trellis. :3

I have 3 versions: full, without grapes, and bare.

Here's what it looks like in-game: and yes this is a sneak peek at a screenie in Sugar Sweet

-Orchards Set

Spoiler

[SIZE=13.6364px]Orchards set edited from Mack tiles. Also give credit to Ying--I used the icons for some of the fruit trees.[/SIZE]

...And yes. I know blueberries don't grow on trees like this....

-Road Tiles (usable in-editor!)

Spoiler

Road tiles! I made them as practice for Sugar Sweet, since there are cityesque and metropolitan areas in-game

I know it looks very scary and confusing, but I promise you, look at it for a little while, place a 32x32 grid over it (or import it into the editor) and it'll make a LOT more sense.

Here's a demo screenie just to prove that I didn't throw a bunch of lines onto a grey background:

I threw together this (very quickly done) map using resources from others as well. Only the road tiles are 100% mine

-House (Kitchen and Bedroom)

Credit Ying for the little flan and the hamburger if used. c:

-Angel Battler

Spoiler

I took her wings off and added in the hair, which did take a while as she's pretty detailed. Also removed her halo :3 The differences are easier to tell on a black background:

-Soldier Battler

Spoiler

This edit was so easy that it's not even funny...literally took me thirty seconds including opening, resizing, editing, and closing XD

-Succubus Battler

Spoiler

First I took off her wings...then her horns...then her tail...

-RESTAFF: RTP Angel Army

Spoiler

-RTP Ulrika Edit

Spoiler

Additional credit to Archeia for these as well. ^^

Made Ulrika a touch bit more feminine. It always bothered me for some reason

-Fire Spirit Edit

Spoiler

The fire spirit with a slightly less scandalous dress, and with normal eyebrow variation...

-Witch Cult?

Spoiler

Witch's hat

Witch cult club? Haha. I have the orange Halloween grandma and the purple-blue mystic....

-Mrrn Edit

Spoiler

A slightly edited picture of Mrrn, because (no offense) I didn't really like her facial expression/eyes.

Clord · Mar 17, 2014

Wow, quite a selection.

Pyro · Mar 17, 2014

I think I'll use the angel army as bosses.

Once I get all the resources I could, I am pretty much going through and fixing everything up, meaning that I take out stuff I don't think I want, test each thing out, ect.

Tsarmina · Mar 17, 2014

Hey look, replies...^-^

@Clord: Haha ^-^ I love creating art, but with my lack of time it's taken quite a while to get so much.

@Pyro: Ooh, the angel army? I did that for February ReStaff on rpgmakervxace.net, it was lots of fun. ^-^

I have a question, but I probably should put it as a request in the VX/Ace Request thing. Could you make overworld sprites for them? I kind of find it difficult to put them in as bosses for my game if there are no sprites, and I don't trust myself with spriting.

Tsarmina · Mar 17, 2014

Ah yeah, I don't take requests here. This Lab is pretty much the only thing I'll be using on this entire site. (Except maybe looking at the Restaffs.)

But even if you did put in a request at the other site, sorry.

I can't sprite. At least not well, the only thing I can do is do tiny little frankens and the occasionally simple color change. (And even those take like 5 hours...) Pixel art really isn't my forte. :\

Tsarmina · Mar 18, 2014

Update!! ^-^

Introducing a new character, Tina. Who, in theory, could definitely be a Little Red Riding Hood...uh, minus the hood. But I'm not good at drawing hoods!...I can make her a cap later. XD

Tina is also from Ariel. She's a twelve-year old archery prodigy and is totally sweet, sweet little girl. <3 I've heard there are a lot of fanfics out there about Little Red falling in love with the Wolf or something crazily convoluted like that. Well, here she is.

Though at her age, I guess that would just be creepy. ^^"

ilfeel · Mar 20, 2014

hey , im newbie here..
i like your laboratory very much!

thank you ^_^

Tsarmina · Mar 20, 2014

@ilfeel: Aww, thanks ^-^ I'm new to this community, but not to the maker or the forums themselves--just didn't join the main site before now

Nice to meet you~

Tigersong · Mar 21, 2014

Wow. Your work in the frosted window set reminds me more of oil pastels than computer graphics. I like.

Tsarmina · Mar 21, 2014

Ah, much thanks ^-^ It took me a large chunk of time to get them all done, and I was using an oil brush in Corel for most of it.

It was a lot of fun to do.

Tigersong · Mar 21, 2014

Neat! Where does one find Corel?

Tsarmina · Mar 21, 2014

I got a deal when i got my Wacom tablet--Photoshop Elements 8 and Corel Painter Essentials 4 with the tablet.

I'm sure it's other places online too.

ShadowLurk · Mar 23, 2014

Your art is so good! Though I don't think that I can use most of them in my project.

And your sprites are quite good in my opinion. Better than my attempts at least....

Tsarmina · Mar 23, 2014

I know my art doesn't blend well with RTP ;_;

Or with anything, in fact.

For some reason, I have a hard time with human sprites. ^^" I tried making some 8D ones for my game, and each one took 5 hours. The non-human ones somehow come much more easily.

Well, we humans tend to add more details when drawing humans. For pixel work, it means a lot more time invested. 8D sprites even moreso, as it involves weird angles...

The best thing I can sprite is simple icons, and even then, it is not that good. So for now I'll just stick to scripting

Tsarmina · Mar 24, 2014

Personally, I think scripting is even more admirable. XD It's like learning new languages, and I've never been a languages person...

Tsarmina · Mar 29, 2014

This is Esthetique from Ariel~ She goes by Esther for short. I have her in two awesome versions--hair down and hair up.

Hair up:

(1. Full with eyeshadow, 2. Full without eyeshadow, 3. Base with e/s, 4. Base without eyeshadow)

And untied hair:

If you look through my laboratory, you'll notice maybe that there's something special about Esther.

See if you can figure out what it is!

Euphoria · Mar 30, 2014

I've never seen you before!

Nice stuff!

Tsarmina · Apr 9, 2014

Whoops. Sorry for the late reply, Euphie. Yeah sure, I've never seen you before either! XD (Heehee, nice to see you.)

Updateee. It's been a while and I forgot to upload all the stuff I have on the Ace lab, whoops. Also here's a nice WIP of a CG-style portrait I'm working on ^^
