Lt.Smirks Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 THEME/TOPIC: Legends of Literature - Sprite a character from a book/movie/anime/television series. (It's a huge category!) [spoiler=Rules]RULES:1) Only 1 entry per contestant.2) No voting for your own entry!3) Entries should be limited to 16 colors.(15 colors+ 1 background color) This is more of a guideline, but good to follow for style and challenge reasons. Colors may be custom or using GBA sprite palletes.5) No posting previous/old works! This means no edits/recolors of something previously made as well.-allowing previous/old works would give an unfair advantage to certain entries, two weeks is a good amount of time to work on an entry... how fair would it be to have to go up against something someone spent months or even a year on?-creating brand new works, encourages creativity and artistic growth and development, kinda what the whole art forums are about... isn't it? [spoiler=Voting and Winners]VOTING:Voting will be split into two categories.-Best in Theme-Best Overall Battle Sprite>Voting will run for 3 daysIf there are a large amount of entries, Best in Theme will be divided into smaller categories based on whether an entry is custom, splice, or animation.WINNERS:(Open to new ideas for this)Winning placement will be decided by total number of votes across categories.>The winner gets to choose two potential themes either from a list or of their own imagination.>The winner and runner ups will vote upon the themes to select one.>The winner gets two votes in addition to theme selection.>Second place gets two votes.>Third place gets one vote.>Whatever theme wins the winner's votes will be used for the next competition.Note, votes can be split, if you have two votes they do NOT need to go to the same theme. --- Any further questions or concerns can be PMed to the current host! (Smirks) or posted either in the feedback thread or within this thread itself.DEADLINE: Tuesday, June 14th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErrantDShepherd Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) We could always limit it to books/manga/comics/graphic novels if we wanted a slightly smaller range? ...also fits more with Literature designation? :0 Edited May 31, 2016 by ErrantShepherd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.Smirks Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Ultimately I'd say that's up to Tao. But if he wants to that would be a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaBombz Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Should we create static sprites or are animations allowed (looking at previous Showdowns I'm assuming static?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.Smirks Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 Mainly static, but animations are definitely allowed (and will probably earn you more votes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaBombz Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Thanks for answering, but I don't think I'm going to attempt to make an animation for this guy: Might be a bit hard for me to pull that off nicely. EDIT: Fixed some palette stuff Edited June 1, 2016 by KaBombz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazeKing Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Welp, this is what I've got, for obvious reasons, I'd like to point out that this is Starforce Megaman, which had an anime covering the first 2 games, granted, this one's from the third game but *technically* it's the same guy, just different form...I guess... Actually, I just googled it, and the third game had a short 2-chapter manga, so there. Edited June 1, 2016 by BlazeKing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Druid Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) If it's not Blonde Ike the it has to be Blonde Leif. Edited June 9, 2016 by Blue Druid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Druid Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 The closest I can think of is Isaac from Golden Sun, but that's probably not him. Just spill the beans already, girlfriend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaceo Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Alright, it's Fat Frumos. (no, not fat, it's a romanian name, aka something like "attractive man") He's basically a children's book character in Moldova. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
