You can see where I gave up, heh.

Also I forgot to fix the curve of her head shape. It was just a color practice exercise to speed up timing…

But yeah, I… don't know how to color hair. help ; - ;

Also, in game-form, she looks like

Ignore the fact that she has brown hair in the big art. I kinda just ripped the colors from a photo and the girl had brown hair there. It was just a practice run to speed up my coloring.

Meanwhile,

I joined this sprite contest at TSR/The Spriter's Resource. I have to do a game mockup. This was an earlier attempt of mine that I'm not using.

What I have now is nothing. But it's due on the 11th so I'm not that worried, bro. Or maybe I should be because the person I'm matched up against actually has decent progress while I have none.

This was my first submission entry.

We had to replace the colors in a grayscale sprite, then shade a outline, then make our own outline. The colors I chose for the first one really suck, but I approve of how well the second one came out. 3rd is well the 3rd one. Eh.

also i drew an alan head.

she is so many colors because she is a very colorful person in real life.

i dont know what else to do so let's compare this BOY BAND MEMBER who has a lotta girl LOVE from the land of KOREA, JONGHYUN from SHINEE, with the great wrestler who suffered ZERO defeats in his LONG VIRTUOUS CAREER, the GREAT GAMA.

JONGHYUN

GREAT GAMA

Battle Theme

Wow, I have almost the exactly same hair as that boy band guy O_O

Also, I like the first sprite. I recognize the style from FF12. Or maybe tactics advanced?

Dammit, I love that earlier attempt of yours that you're not using.

Everyone is doing "everything is better extremely huge extremely huge", so I think I'm gonna go different with smaller sprites. This is what it means to be indie.

Also, yeah, I think the first sprite is a moogle.

Here's the original sprite:

I think that hairstyle is pretty common too.

It's common as fuck, every girly cunt from Europe to Japan has it.

Girls like longer hair imo.

And this is why Juju has messy hair.

That too haha, mine ends up all messy about halfway through the day.

I have Beatles hair so I don't have to worry about it being messy.
