ok the arm has been fixed in this one and the leg is bulked up
and i through them together to see what it looks like but the placement isn't final
as for shading maybe someone here is better at it and could help me with that so the white doesn't look 2d
feel free to pm me with tips or your own edits of this :)

again thanks for all the input

*edit*
ok did the transparency BladeCat4 suggested and i worked on making moving arms and legs like i find in other peoples mods... also i put the raptors pieces up for a comparison (thanks NaXx)

Now make the centre of the brain bubble helmet transparent, like glass.

ok noted um i think i will take a break and see if i can get it moving then come back to editing
i might just take the raptors .ini file and see if i can make my parts work

it would be cool if this could become a group project.

lol i have never coded any of this i just looked at the files and read up a bit on it so i think will see what i can do :) so i'm in the same boat as you The Mind

*edit* ok so here's a update i put my pics in the raptor and tried it out and here's what happened
the arms and legs were in funny places which i expected and it moved right however the problem i ran into was that my transparent color was off probably from switching back and forth from photo shop to bitmap file format

so its a bit of a set back but i learned a lot from that test and now i know more about what i need to do

Actually, I think someone did a Whitebot sprite sometime ago but no one used it.

I have drawn a quick sketch of my impression towards the Whitebot. I know nothing about spriting so this is all I can do to help. You did bulked it up, but not enough. We mean BULK. Also, some places need a bit 3D. Like the shoulders are facing you laterally, not right at us by 90 degrees (see picture). In 2D, shouldn't be a uniform circle, but a flattened one. Though that may be too much to ask for.

Also with some of my imagination towards its weapons. I think those are fingers, but what if they do transform into a weapon?

i would love to see yours if you still have it

and i think your right i need to change the circles i will fix that while im fixing the color problem i ran into

as for weapons i did think about that and i was thinking machine guns ... i don't think it should be over powered ... BladeCat4 mentioned missiles and if its done right that could be cool too

again if you find yours please show me and nice drawing btw

I think a good backpack-y thing would be good... although they could be an additional (non-canon) thing.

Missile backpack anyone? XD

That old whitebot sprite is gone during the destruction of the attachment files. Yours is the only whitebot sprite around now, I guess.
