I actually used to be a good spriter

So, lately I have been telling whoever would listen that, while I have kinda lost my touch now, there was actually a time, back when I was a member of PO's community, when I was recognized as a decent graphics expert, specializing in themes for the simulator and in sprites (I went by the name "Tears in Heaven", and later "Tears of tomorrow", back then).

Of course, one cannot make such claims without backing them up: with the help of Google, I found that old topic on PO where I, with some help from other users, made a full custom trainer sprites folder for the simulator... Only to find out that I had uploaded said folder to Megaupload, and the preview pics to Mirrorimg, and both sites have been shut down since then. But just when I was about to give up all hopes to find my old works, I remembered that my old computer had been infected by a virus at some point, so I had to back its memory up on an external hardware... The same external hardware I still use for backup. And there, in a long forgotten directory, I finally found them: the sprites I had created back then!

I am gonna share some of them with you guys, just to show you that yes, I might be a lazy geek whose life is dominated by university, but there was actually a time when I had some skills...

SSBB-themed

Mario - Peach - Wario - Daisy - Captain Falcon - Samus

Naruto-themed

Naruto - Sakura - Sasuke - Gaara

DBZ villains

Frieza - Cell - Majin Buu

Batman villains

The Joker - The Riddler - Bane

Pokemon anime

Professor Oak - Team Rocket

Miscellaneous

Master Yoda - Santa Claus - Green Ranger - Barney Stinson - The Kiss

Program used: Graphics Gale. I wonder if I would even be capable of creating stuff like this after all these years... It's been over 4 years already!

Just checking if people actually read tags :>

bruh this is good sprite work :o

I always use the same tags to keep track of everything I post :P

Damn ninja'd by Jelly. I don't know if I like Yoda, but the rest are nice.

Poor Yoda ;-; I do admit I kinda rushed that one back then, for various reasons...

Anyway thanks for the positive feedback: as I said, all these sprites are over 4 years old, and I haven't been spriting at all since then, so chances are I have lost my touch... But I do plan on resuming my attempts at spriting sooner or later.

I've been spriting some too lately because me and some friends were making a pokemon game using our own fakemon. Sadly our concept drawer has left us...anybody want the Job XD I'm not that good but can do passable work. If you could do better and feel you're interested you could help out. As a reference to the quality this is the fire starter I made a while ago. http://gyazo.com/5b86fae5fbc3c02438e9fcb93b59d144

Don't use my topic to advertise your stuff, start your own <.<
