Awesome, Rolento!

thumbs up!

Thanks broski.

And for the suggestions I got earlier about adding extra textures and highlights, I would have, but the file size would have been completely out of control. This is about as far as I could take it while still making the KB limit.

This is actually my first work in Photoshop.
I was drawing only on paper, before it.

This drawing is awesome! I love the way you detail the gun. All it lacks is shades of colors, add some shades and you'll be have some serious competition here.

thanx alot man.. and at least you have given some "positive" imput not negative input

This took 40 + hours due to the incredibly stupid amount of detail and stuff I put into it. I think I wound up with 198 layers.
I'd hate to say it after 40+ hours but.. if you look at it closely.. based on his hands

Are his feet backwards? :O

Or maybe his arms are? :X

No, but it's a good observation because the proportions are exageratted(sp) quite a bit. The original sprite had him kind of lurching leaning forward so I had to make a decision as to how much I really wanted to change. I figured the best bet would be changing the post slightly making him twist a little more than normal versus making him look like he's lurching forward with his chest then going back up like some kind of snake. I chose to keep it looking like he's 1) striking something and 2) showing the whip in motion. I certainly could have gone the other way, but it was a rock and a hard place.

Thanks though, I love any comments or criticism I can get!

yeah I looked at the picture a bit more after posting that and figured out what you were doing.
What threw me off was the direction of the feet and/or the shading on the right leg.

Well... I don´t know if I really made it to the contest... I just finished making my account, and I´m afraid I´m late... Well, anyway, check my rendition of Athena and tell me what do you think of it, please...

I suck. I started an entry a while ago but I simply didn't get around to finishing it. I had a lot planned for it and the piece was getting really complex, but laziness kicked in and the rest is history. Enjoy the picture of what I DO have. Not much.

Probably, though they are at Comiccon right now, so whatever, plus I may try my hand at some non contest eligible entries. Aw well, no use thinking about it.

What gets me though is the style, Should the characters be clean and look more like a game sprite itself ? like Alien Homonid ? or can it just be a really detailed drawing of the sprite ? my entry would definatly be a bitch to animate so in that sense I would be making it hard on myself. Or is it more based on style ? becuase if we all tried to do the same type what would be the point ?

Also What do you think of my submission ?

The overall idea was to make it look like a more detailed crisper sprite. They definitely shunned the portrait entries this time around.

The Le Chuck you did isn't bad at all, but I prefer LiLg's version since he stuck more to the guidelines.

what guidlines ?

2. YOUR FINAL HD ART SHOULD CLOSELY RESEMBLE THE ORIGINAL SPRITE. This means pose, colors, and so forth. DO NOT DO THIS. You are allowed to take some minor liberties, though

So far Ive totally followed them as far as I can see just mine is more like a drawing than a computer sprite

I think you could have made the left foot a little longer so the heels line-up a little more. Right now the left foot looks a little bit further behind than the right foot, leaving to pose kinda aukward. Also you could have cleaned it up a little more like your Indiana Tom entry.

If you're reading this you've gone too far :3

Yeah, I didnt really know how to do his legs, mainly becuase he is seriously gimped up, in the game has walks like his leg is broken because well hes a zombie so hes kinda all nasty looking.

As for cleaning my Indiana Fulp pic I feel looking at it again was too empty and I tried to give it a more glossy effect using photoshop effects. But I dont really like using effects for somthing that should be drawn, so here I basically just drew it all in as much detail as I could without resorting to filters and such.
I dunno though, my stuff always looks messy, but to be honest I like it like that, I mean its art not graphic design, Im not making a Logo in Illustrator im just drawing and for me that means being messy, but I like it and really thats what matters. Im really just trying to improve on my art becuase ive been so lazy with it for so long, but I feel Ive made huge improvment over time, mainly in my patience, before Id draw for 15 mintues at a time before just giving up and watching a porno or making a sandwhich, or both. But now I can spend more time doing the detail work that I like to do.
Anyway...I dont know why im still speaking, this post is way longer than it needs to be !

TransForWhores´ Q-Bee is one of my personal favourites. Her picture also follows all the rules that Stamper listed for the contest (My picture doesn´t, exactly. But I think that Athena´s sprite should be like this, anyway). I´d be very surprised if she didn´t win a prize.
I´d also like to discuss about my other favourites and oher sort of things, but I´ll have to go now.


Happy

Hmm... I understand... I only wanted to remark that Q-Bee is not one of my Vampire Savior favourite characters and still, I love that submission. ( 6 times? Ooooh, that had to hurt a lot...)
