looks pretty good vincent. nice use of gradients and that flash graphic style.

personally i think using 8-bit sprites to translate to hi-def is a stupid idea, because 8-bit sprites are so lacking in character detail. but in this case, pinky is a very simple sprite. so it works.

Thanks rtil
That's actually one of the reasons why I chose pinky.

it was about time i joined this forums.
about your comment, well, that's the point of the art contest. just redrawing a 16-bit sprite isn't fun, isn't original, is stupid. You CAN redraw it with high res, OR, you could 'redraw' an 8-bit sprite, in your own interpretation (adding on details, expressions etc...).

anyway, here's mine, a hippo enemy from megaman

in this case, the sprite has enough infromation about the character to develop it into a hi-def rendition. in other words, it's a well-designed sprite. what i'm talking about is your typical 8-bit sprite with very minimal information to work off of, such as this popular example:
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.techepics.com%2Ffiles%2Fsuper_paper_mario_02.jpg&hash=2cb0f17caea72092d753283b325fd110ba40f93b)
now, while we all know what mario looks like, if you gave that to someone who didn't, i doubt they could give you an accurate portrayal of his character.
