Goblin Spritesheet for Ironbane (pre-alpha MMORPG) WiP

2012-08-25T01:50:00.000-07:00

A spritesheet is a collection of the various frames (still images), which together result in an animation. I have been asked to make a spritesheet of a goblin that can move in 8 directions. After today's update two directions remain before I can begin to refine each frame with shadows and details. Here is the draft for the first six directions:
