Up to a day, depending on how hard your staring while your trying to get that pixle in just the right spot.

Varies. Some stuff is FRIGGIN' HARD (Nokis are like 45-90 minutes a pop, some custom jobs take two hours), but most stuff takes me like 30 min. to 45 min., with around 10-25 minutes before that planning the character design. The actual sprite creation for a great sprite might take a little longer for you, since I've pretty much mastered spriting in paint, or at least a lot of little shortcuts and tricks.

Pride and Prime are only a letter apart. As is Prime and Prim. And Prime and Grime. And 2 letters from Prime to Slime, Prune, and Primal.

My nick name actually started out as Primal. Someone randomly shortened it to Prime, and it sorta just stuck.

I don't think we know yet. Once the judges have been decided and assembled I'm sure we'll find out. *nudges Lee*

Cinders, who do you have willing to be a judge? That's my one big question before we start this. Also, will Pyro be participating/judging?

I know Katie'll be a judge, but the others I'm not sure about. ^^" I think it's safe to say they probably won't be doing anything.

Okay, so for entries, we've got: Kevin Cinders Me Loogs Damien Pope
Judges: Katie, DL, Prime. Once I get word from teh judges, I'll pick which one is the subject-chooser. Judges each give each sprite a critique and a score between 0 and 100, with 0 being a total abortive attempt that feels to meet the requirements, and 100 being a gorgeous work of art. Judges should assume that 75 is a grade for a passable, but bland and average sprite. The average will be taken of the judge's scores, and the highest score in that category wins the category. If anybody wins 3 or more categories, they will win an additional trophy, declaring them the "Master Spriter 2007".
Categories: *Human Character Sprite: (Based on a description from the subject choice judge) This must be a humanoid being, sprited using any materials available to you and any ethical techniques. *Pokemon Crossbreed (Freestyle): Here, you may design a Pokemon crossbreed at your own whimsy. You may use any Pokemon sprites and any ethical techniques here. You may begin on this one immediately. *Human Style Sprite (Freestyle): Like the above contest. Just submit a humanoid sprite, any technique. It must be ethical, however. You may begin on this one immediately. *Nonhuman Sprite (From the Subject Choice Judge): This can be almost anything, chosen by the judge. They may say "Horse", or "automobile". This one is really up in the air. *Sprite Banner (From the Subject Choice Judge): This is the biggest event. It could be a banner for an RP, with multiple characters featured on it, or a advertisment for the Exodus, or something else entirely. Any resources are valid for this, but the focus must be sprites of a Pokemon-game origin.

Just wondering, does the Human Style Sprite have to be pokemon trainer based?

Not the freestyle, though if not Pokemon resources, please link us to your sprite sheet so we can determine how much original work you did.

*Waves*
I'm here.
Someone give Rach a cookie for doing her job.
So... What do you want me to do? Has the subject chooser been picked yet? ^^

Post by Tout-Perd on Mar 19, 2007 14:37:13 GMT -5
Nope, the subject picker has not been chosen yet, but I have now got my idea. I'll make each of you a subject picker for one non-freestyle contest. You will choose the subject for the Nonhuman Sprite, Prime will for the Human Sprite, and DL will for the banner. Your score for a sprite counts double in the averages for the sprite in your category.
