This is like almost my first ever attempt at a sprite sig so I don't wanna hear stuff like oh it's not a sprite tag. You done it all wrong. It was an attempt!

You didn't do it wrong. It's pretty good actually.

I've never done a sprite tag either! >.>

I need to sort out my mouse, I would've been bothered to take it further. Using the touchpad is annoying as hell. I might work on the tag a little after work to fix up parts on the right side.

Thanks for counting the rest of us out hokage.. i havent hardly missed an sotw yet and just cause i havent made a sprite sig before doesnt mean i cant make one. So dont count the rest of us out yet as a matter of fact i made two practice ones last night but its nice you seem to think only 3 are able to win this sprite contest.

@ BK i liked your sprite entry actually. I liked it cause it was different then most i seen. Nice job for a first attempt.

Hokage4354

I really wasn't counting you guys out. These are just the three people as
far as I know who were entering at that point. =/
Do have an entry yet or are you still practicing>? I was practicing for a few
days now and I think I have what I want to enter.


I really don't like it, but i've never made a sprite sig and this one seemed
like the best one I made so far. =/

I tried following this GIMP tutorial but I wasn't happy with the results. =/

I never knew sprite sigs could be so difficult! xD

Thanks and I was gonna comment on him leaving everyone else out lol. But I thought he meant what he said about me, him and Itza saying we'll be in this. I hope more than just a few of us join, it'll help me to get ideas for sprite tags in the future. BTW I bet you found that one type of sig more annoying then pop-outs now

Hokage never use tuts for sprite tags, I've been told by a sexpert unless you're planning on duplicating it exactly.

Hokage4354

I think this SOTW establishes that sprites shall never again be used for a theme. >.>

I think sprites should be used from time to time, it will make us that much more versatile at GFX. Sprites it's all about choosing the right part of your sprites body as the focus. My MJ his feet are the focus, so in the end sort of blur away from the focus. Make sure you have C4D's which flow away from the focus point and make sure to add a few snazzy brushes like my circles.

Holy whack-a-noodle, that's a flipping awesome sprite signature, BK. Kudos, especially since it's your first of that kind.

Also, I've a question - because it's a sprite tag, does the sprite have to be the main dealio of the tag, or does there just have to be a sprite in there for it to be a sprite sig? (Like, suppose I had an actual render of a character that was not a sprite, but there was a sprite somewhere else out there - would that count as a sprite signature?)

If I don't make sense I'm sorry.

grrrrrr! My second attempt along with this one...



I find this sprite theme difficult. Idk If I should give it another go or stick with one
of these two. Opinions?
