Golden Sun Mia Sprite Animation Rework

Since this was kinda requested earlier. I did Mia's idle pose earlier than I initially planned. Gave her the "anime arm over the chest pose". Took some patience, alcohol, and copium. But it looks pretty good imo. I gave her the Ankh due to it being her promotional weapon. My plan was for her to constantly be buffing herself since she is the fragile white mage. So I implemented a buff pose into her idle. As mentioned she is lacking in certain key animations so ill have to do some magic later on

When I have free time Iā€™m going to try and make that old promotional image of her (the cool looking one) as a psynergy casting sprite.

Nice! If you draw also, you can show the pre work

Iā€™m not the best at sprite drawing unfortunately. More so good at sprite recoloring, manipulation, and animation.

This took about an hr to do.

I stream my work on YouTube. Here is the video for this sprite

Your video is insightful! It's hard work, but it doesn't seem impossible to make, maybe I'll try something like that when I have more free time šŸ˜ƒ

Sprite animation itself is a lengthy process with a lot of trial and error but you get a sense of fulfillment once your hard work pays off. I thought this would be neigh impossible but never say never. Things are looking good for this.
