Nial Idle Strip

Generated from: A single wide horizontal sprite strip image for a 2D arcade fighting game. ONE ROW of exactly 5 separate full-body figures of the SAME character in animation order from LEFT to RIGHT, each figure a clean SIDE VIEW facing RIGHT, each figure the same size and standing on the same invisible floor line, separated by wide empty background gaps. NO grid, NO panels, NO dividing lines, NO borders, NO frame numbers, NO text, NO watermark. CHARACTER (must be identical in every frame): NIAL, adult man, muscular, spiky crimson-red hair with long strands whipping back, thick red beard, black eye-patch over his left eye with the right eye visible, tan skin, orange-and-black tiger-stripe blouson jacket with a huge white fur collar worn open over a bare chest showing a black tiger-head tattoo, black leather belt, dark red trousers, heavy black boots, and a proportionate katana with a red-and-black wrapped hilt and a glowing hot blade. ANIMATION - IDLE BREATHING LOOP: subtle weight shift; chest expands and shoulders lift on the inhale and settle on the exhale; hair and coat sway; the katana is held low at his side with the tip toward the ground. Frame 1 neutral, frame 2 inhaling chest out, frame 3 peak inhale shoulders high, frame 4 exhaling, frame 5 back to neutral. STYLE: high quality 2D arcade fighting game sprite art, SNK Neo-Geo and Guilty Gear inspired quality bar, large ultra-detailed illustration with bold ink outlines, strong readable silhouette, dramatic rim light, hands properly attached to the arms and feet properly attached to the legs, one coherent single body, no floating body parts. BACKGROUND: flat uniform neutral mid gray, absolutely plain, no floor, no ground shadow, no cast shadow.
