Please See Metroidvania help--again For a explanation of the thumbnail I want.
It would probably be better if you filled out this thumbnail format:
So the thumbnailists don’t have to go read through posts to try and figure out what it is you want. After all, they are trying to help you. It would make it a lot easier for them if you provided the details here.
If you don’t know how to edit your post, there is a pencil next to the like button that you can tap to edit the post.
i would be happy to do this, but i don’t think there’s enough info for thumbnailists like me (as suspiciousman said)
here’s some tips for art requests! (some might be rules but i forgot)
- (possibly rule) make your art request when the game is close to being finished! it can be disappointing for people when they make a thumbnail only for the game to be canceled
- (tip) be patient with artists! please
- (tip) be specific and dont be really vauge, the whole point of the format is so artists have a good idea on what you want
- (rule (i think)) don’t make multiple topics for one thumbnail
- (maybe rule) try and avoid pinging artists (pinging is putting an @ and a username after it; like this @cheezesRcool (it tells people in notifications that [poster] pinged them))
found the rules!
BRO GIVE US FORMAT I WANT THUMBNAILS REQUEST (like real thumbnails request)
@Swordking I can see you included that link which was very helpful of you, but some of are thumbnailists need more details to what is happening in the story, the specific setting, or what are they doing not just a simple “This Style” and expect to have a good thumbnail.Please use the format it helps a lot of us.
I apologize:
Name of game: Shell- (demo)
The setting varies, but currently is a plant based area, and an underground one.
I believe that the gim should either be solaria or ozi.
I don’t care about the character actions, standing still works fine.
I, @Swordking , am the author.
please work off of the underground one.
could you be more specific with the underground setting?
Ah… Here’s a setting idea to work off:
The character standing at the top of an altar-like stone formation while a rift of darkness appears behind them.
I shall be working on this on Monday,I have a lot going on this weekend. Have A Happy Halloween!
heres a draft
do you approve of it? (if you do i’ll keep on using it as the basis/ if no then i’ll try something else)
i wont actually use realistic eyes i promise
Uh… Yeah that works. please avoid realistic eyes ![]()
what expression do you want for the eyes?
happy neutral scared angry or something else?
theres also this if you want it
i call this one
“i can see the light its beckoning me to come closer”
and sometimes
“i know all that there is to know”
for the eyes, I think… how about… scared.
nope, that works great!
Alr I’ma start working. Expect today or the afternoon tomorrow.
