[Graphic Arts Contest][February 2008] XXXize your character

[Rikard]

No, it's not a porn contest.

Contest Theme
Take a character from a game and make him appear in a style from another game. As simple as that. Ex. SFA Andy Bogard, KOF Blanka.


Contest Rules
Each contestant can submit as many sprites as he/she wants. The winner is decided by the total votes a contestant scores, based on all of his sprites.

You can submit your works until February 29th, 2008. The voting will be done in the following 15 days of the next month.

Use this thread to post your works/comments/etc.

Extra Points
1 extra points if the sprite has a simple animation, something like bouncing, hair movement or facial expression changes.
2 extra points if the animation is complex.
1 extra point if the sprite is in double res.
1 extra point if the sprite is "doubled" meaning that we can see both the front and the back of the sprite.
2 extra points if the sprite is open source.
1 extra point from scratch.

eFeX won before this contest was made



anyway I'll try to struggle a bit to get some suitable circumstances to work on some...I hope

[Bastard Mami]

just one question; does 3d to 2d counts? lots of 3d games have one 2d version for cells or something anyway.

I don't see why not, but that's kind of...well, off-contest. With that excuse you could make a 3D Ryu and say LOLZ I MADE TEKKEN RYU.


So, No.

good thing i am interested in characters from old games made in current game styles.

[Sandshrew]

Do you mean taking an already existing sprite from a fighting game and convert to another style? If so we can't really get that extra point from scratch.

[Rikard]

Well, if your concept of, let's say, CVS Super Mario is to take the NES sprites and make them as big as CVS ones, yeah, you can't take extra points. Sorry man. 

[K.O.D]

So,is taking a 3D model and redrawing/converting it into a 2D cartoon/anime sprite allowed (since its a dramatic perspective change and not just a style/game change)?

I would like to redraw a 3D realistic model into a 2D cartoon/anime/cell-shaded sprite.

[Rikard]

Should make this clear.

THIS CONTEST IS LIMITED TO 2D.

I know this is going to cut some potential entries off, but THERE WERE GAMES BEFORE THE PLAYSTATION CAME OUT DAMMIT

Well, that would be my concept of converting a sprite and not a character. I was asking if, for example, I could do a CvS sprite out of this character from scratch instead of using that sprite as base:


EDIT:

done.
Bleach ds to ggx rangiku:

base was a sprite i made using this one as base so its the same thing, i guess:

i might do some more next, since i wasnt much happy with this one.

omfg that is absolutely beautiful

/agree

HOLY OROCHI, BATMAN!!!

time to go nuts with this:P

*p.s the character will be Holy Orochi(a.k.a KOF boss style) Batman, just for kicks:)*

and i'll source it now:

Adventures of Batman and Robin rom, the same sprites used for that new beta batman released a little while ago,
OR, alternatively, orochi sprites, if i find them:)

Bleach ds to ggx rangiku:

Damn, good job. Rangiku rocks!

[Rikard]

I want to see more sprites like that. Work hard, guys.
