I've been saving all my sprites on paint in a PNG format ever since I came here, and they've come out alright. So far, I have the battle sprite and two of the overworlds done for my guy. I'll come back and edit/post them on here. And of course I wouldn't judge myself. X D

EDIT:

Okay, here it is.

Name: Westrmistr (You know what? I've come to the conclusion that people could be mispronouncing my name. It's pronounced Wester-m-eye-ster.)

OW:

Battle sprite:Edited! X]

Other: Pokemon Breeder.

And if there's any problems, just tell me. :cer_wink:

:O :D

Awesome, really like it!
Mabye try out rangers and bounty hunters next? xD
Really like them!

Thanks, but, can contestants enter more than one entry?

Oh, and why wasn't I in on this contest from the beginning? :cer_shifty:

I like it. :o -clapclap- 8.5/10 Nicely colored ad all, but the (our) right leg is a little messy. Legs are hard though. D; Oh, and if he's a breeder, I'd have him holding two pokeballs or have one sticking out of his bag or pocket. Looks great though. ^.^

Because I spontaneously made it up. o_o; I posted it just an hour or so after I told Mac I'd be doing it. x3 And yeah, the more entries the merrier~ (You should make more trainer sprites/OWs as a part of your team membership because they're pretty good. D

Okay, I'll edit him then. :cer_boogie: *Please watch the dancing emoticon while you wait.* ...

Battle sprite:

There, I've added more Pokeballs, and fixed up his legs slightly.

I'll get some more done too. :cer_wink:

EDIT: Okay, I'm starting on the OWs for my Bounty Hunter. I'll be back soon. *Please watch the dancing emoticon*

Again, great! :D

Although, I think bounty hunters look different, this is more like a cop.
Google bounty hunter and you'll see what I mean.
Bounty hunters don't wear fancy clothing, but more ragged clothing ...

West, I really like your trainer art, the overworlds are really nicely colored and the trainer sprites are very good and official looking.
Keep entering more :D !!!

[xDaisuke0]

I wish i could sprite...Those OW sprites look cool! i really like the rival's look.

I'm glad you like them. I really like 'em too. But, I should, because I made them. X]

I know what a bounty hunter looks like, it's just I remember Mac saying something about the Bounty Hunters being like "special police." But, I could be mistaken. So, the idea of making them look like a policemen fit pretty well. I mean, wouldn't people start getting suspicious if they had weird Bounty Hunters dressed in loin cloths trying to capture the old "police"? *Rangers* So I thought that was a good design. I think it would be great for the Bounty Hunters. Wouldn't the Enigmas want people to not think they're Bounty Hunters? Eh, let's see what Vannah says... :cer_wink:

And I plan to make a Ranger, next.

:o I like it. The legs could be a tad closer together (He looks like he's straining a bit though I know where you were going with it) As said, it looks a little much like a police man, but I looked for some bounty hunter pictures that wer already a bit similar to what you're doing now. I like this image a little.
http://cdn-write.demandstudios.com/u...90/4/30894.jpg So the essentials would be a different hat and a gun. The long coat and blouse isn't that important, but it'd be kinda cool. xD BUT, this is cool already. You could keep this and make it some cop guarding the outside of an enigma base or something.

xD Excuse my brainstorming, but I think it'd be cool if there were cop bases like there are in the actual series. (Or whichever building they usually find officer Jenny) Inside you'd find a bunch of cops with their coffee and donuts and when they talked to you they would battle you. =p I could make the building and stuff. I dunno, I think that'd be a unique little feature. :3

Hey I am the best sprite collecter there is. I am not known but I basically have every good sprites out there ( not much splices) and even some of your sprites but I am making a game (not having much luck) and a couple websites for my business (different topic) but I would like to help you if tell me what you need.

Yeah, use that sprite for a policemen. XD That's perfect.

Okay, so I'll try the Bounty Hunter again, then a ranger. Could I edit the policemen to make the Bounty Hunter? I just like the pose and how he looks. So, I'll try and get to 'em. I know they would look a little too similar, but what do you think?

Yeah, he's fine. You'll probably just edit his leg position slightly, his arm by a few pixels, and maybe even some pixels on his face. Just edit the current positioning slightly, basically.

I hope you have permission to have those sprites... you probably don't have Mac's permission for our sprites...
But we're trying to use as many of our own sprites as possible to keep the game original.

But for who would these people be working for? Enigma or the Rangers?

Okay, I have edited the Police man.

Battle Sprite:

Other: Crazy Cop Enigma Policeman.

And I've gone and made a new Bounty Hunter. I haven't made the OWs yet, but here's the battle sprite.

Name: Westrmistr.

OW: Loading... :cer_boogie:

Battle Sprite: Edited.

Other: Enigma Bounty Hunter.

Tell me how he looks. I think he needs more work, but what do you guys think?

First off, Get Well Soon Mac. Sorry, no Hallmark card....

Second, nice contest idea Vannah. I see that NOBODY has an entry besides West, though....
Anyway, on to the critiquing:

I like everything except the gun. It looks flat to me .
I would give it a little more shading. Also, reposition it some. I'd like to see how well it would look slung over his shoulder. That is more Poke Bounty Hunter to me, you know, having the gun there as a last resort.


P.S. I would enter, but I couldn't sprite if my life depended on it, but that's why I'm the Stat Guy.

Okay, I'll edit him some. How does his gun look now?



Now that I look at it, he seems to be shooting himself in the head. XD Sorry. I guess I better turn his gun upside down?

You could just angle it to where the barrel is pointing at his right shoulder at a 45 degree angle.
BTW, making a gun opinting directly down is a bad idea, too, because the rifle could discharge into his leg or foot while he is walking. While this would be a great way to get outta the military back in the 50s, it is not a good idea for someone who gets paid to chase someone.

Well, um, I already made it that way. XD But, I'll be right back. I have an idea.

Okay, I tried to change the guns position, but it would either look weird or I would have to make another gun, and it didn't look right, etc. So, here's this one...

First off, the shoulder guard area needs to be a bit less blocky.

I.e.:

*************************
*
*____________/ **\ \ /*****
*_______ /***____**
********


Something like that.


Then, you need the wood on the barrel extended some, so it isn't just a metal tube.

I.e.:

****************************/
****************\____________/
___________________/*********

Hopefully, however, it won't look this bad XDDD

Much better. It doesn't look as much like a reversed ax. (Wooden blade and metal handle, instead of vice-versa)
