Definitive has a better looking sword otherwise both of them look quite bad
But that doesn’t mean you can’t improve them
I would suggest adding gradients first of all, they literally make everything look better ( unless you know what you’re going for and want a stylized look )
Then how about not making all the nodes on the entire stickfigure have the same thickness ? Or the same length ? For example you can make the torso wider to emphasize strength, or make the legs quite long to emphasize speed, or make the stickfigure freaking tall so that it screams ” I AM OVERPOWERED !1!1!!! ” ( Like Sagat from Street Fighter )
Doing these 2 things will dramatically improve your stickfigure, and I bet it’ll only take no more than 5 minutes.
Replying to:🎄🏳️⚧️René (F)🏳️⚧️🎄Those are horrible tips
You have no say on whether my tips are bad or not, in fact, people actually like them ( source : the replies )
And either way, my advice is just general knowledge, I mean, emphasizing a body part to highlight powers or personality is a concept as old as time ( see : Priapus, because ” gey ” )
Replying to:🎄🏳️⚧️René (F)🏳️⚧️🎄No they legitimately are horrible
Adding gradients especial
Yes, adding gradients ” on this level ” is a good idea, even if it’s just a little bit ( see : Ralph’s updated stickfigure )
And I wasn’t telling him to make nodes thicker, I was telling to not make them have the same thickness and to emphasize some body parts ( basic character design 101 )
But choice of style, fair enough, at the end of the day, it’s up to him whether he takes my advice or not.

That just looked like an oi
Just because you say ” it’s an oiled mess ” doesn’t at all mean that it doesn’t look better to other people ( why would ralph call it updated if it looks bad then ? )
And basic character design 101 is what it says on the box, general rule of thumbs to design characters that anyone can understand ( except you apparently )

@ me when you’ve refined your stickfigure
Those are horrible tips

No they legitimately are horrible
Adding gradients especially on this level really isn’t a solid idea
And making nodes thicker isn’t a good idea either , style choices and all

How is that Basic character design 101-

Also, OP took my advice so rip bozo
You’re giving this advice for a stick figure sir
I’ll take some of your advice. Mostly on the sword xD
Isn’t this Gaby the anim? Like, the only thing different from Gaby’s is the white cross being diagonal and white
It’s a yellow figure…
*s p o n g e b o b*
I wanna address this. No I was not trying to copy off Gaby. I got the concept from Gaby. But I wasn’t trying to make it like Gaby.
ohhhhhhh thank you for explaining
I’m getting toasted for making an executioner sword. I’m gonna remake it and fuck the round tip
