Wow, didn't realize this project was still alive.  Looks great, keep up the good work! 

Here is another version of the FINN sprite from above.  Let me know which one you like better.

Version 1:


Version 2:

I found this link on the shining force central forums, I don't know if anyone here has seen or is involved with this game, but it looks very promising.  Its called Shining Force Online, check it out.

Thanks for the positive feedback!  I should be posting some new sprites very soon.

After looking over some of the engines out there, I've recently decided to take a stab at my own SF game.  I have no title for it yet, and only a vague idea of where the story will start.  Anyway, I went ahead and created the sprites for the starting team of my game.  These are not from scratch, i made them by combining existing sprites.  My plan is to use the SFII/SFCD graphics, so thats mostly what these are based on.  Here they are...

SEIFER - SDMN


FINN - MAGE


LUKE - KNTE - PLDN


ROSH - SHNB(Shinobi, promotes to NNJA)


BARTZ - WARR


THOMAS - PRST


Unnamed


I think most of them look good.  I know Bartz needs a little work, he ended up looking like the dwarf miner from SFII.  Any comments/suggestions that you could give would be appreciated. 

Thats too bad, I was really lookin forward to adding to that project.  Thanks for the heads up on the RPG kit, I just downloaded it.  If I make any progress on anything Shining I'll be sure to let you know. 

Is there anyway I could get my hands on the source code for the SF2 Remake that Aura4 is working on?  I have a lot of experience programming in Java and C++, and I would love to learn C#.  I've been playing with XNA Game Studio for a couple days now and I'm startin to get the hang of it.  I'd love to help progress this project any way I can. 

Does anyone know where I can get a sprite sheet of the characters from both stories of SFCD?  I have found plenty of single sprites, but no sheets.

Heres 2 sprites I just made cause I was bored.  I used Oddeye's face from his enemy sprite, and combined it with Bowie's SDMN body.  I can't tell which one I like better right now, tell me what you think.   BTW, I dont plan on using these for any project, so feel free to use the sprites if you so choose.
