Hey-o everyone! I've recently bought some assets and wanted to share my experience with them, outlining pros + cons.
First up, a character pack from BUBU-K.
https://www.dlsite.com/eng/work/=/product_id/RE203415.html
This pack was first released in 2017 and costs $7.24 (estimation)
I personally was attracted by the style as well as the fact there are 3 character sprites, compared to just one.
Little known fact: This circle has MORE options if you go to the "GIRLS" version of DLSite.
It will ask you if you are 18+, despite the art by the circle itself has no NSFW. But the site will have other ads that can be explicit.
BUBU-K Profile (Girls)
It includes young boys, an 'uncle', side characters, female sprite, and other male character packs.
More images from this pack:
As you can see, they have modern clothing options + Japanese themed ones.
The Japanese clothing has sword + 'ninja' hood options. The second character has a separate sprite file just for a new pose + blood.
The third character has the least amount of options, having one set of eyes + eyebrows and the clothing you see in the image. If you're looking for an 'uncle'/older character, the file comes with wrinkles to give an older appearance.
Pros:
- 3 Characters
- Multiple Sets of Eyes, Brows, + Hair to Choose From
- HQ Art Style
- Can remove layers to change the shine on hair + clothing
Cons:
- You will have to edit some of the layers. For example, the highlight on some clothing + eyes will overlap onto other layers. I personally spent about an hour cleaning up one of the characters until I was satisfied.
- Third Character is almost more of a side-character, so not as many options
- File names all in Japanese
Overall, I'd give this pack a...4 out of 5.
