Topic: Castlevania Dungeon Award Sprite Contest

Hmm... how about designing an original monster for the next contest?

This was the idea that I had:

For my idea for November's contest, I say we should have a contest to design an Original Castlevania End Boss that Dracula could turn into.

Maybe something up to this size:



I think this gives everyone the opportunity to sprite much bigger this time around.

Mods, can we start a poll?

Also, if you want to volunteer to judge this time around, I suggest that you mentioned something now!

^ I was pertaining to any monster. You specified dracula end boss.

I'll make the poll.

Thanks dudes! To be honest, the competition here is arduous, and really made me think I had no chance 

Now, I might take up on Uzo's idea and make the silver trophy into another enemy. Maybe Axe Armor, as he proposed, or maybe another equally annoying enemy as Bat and Medusa Head (Fleaman comes to mind). I'll try to find a way to make Death work, but if it doesn't, I'll show something new!

Looking forward to your silver and bronze submissions, hopefully soon.

That looked awesome. I'm no spriter, but would love to do something for this. ^^

Mucho Thanks!

[Belmontoya]

I'd like to say congrats to the The Plot Twist!

Nice work!

I might have them ready by next weekend.

Tell me, dudes, I added stands of different heights for Death and Medusa to better signify the position in the contest at hand. I reworked Death's shading a little bit for it to look less bland. Do you dudes like it? Do you want me to replace Death? Speak yer minds!

[uzo]

Looks pretty cool. The stands improved them a lot. I think you should work on the tint for the death coloring. Also Medusa is 'bronze', so maybe cut back on the red and try for an actual bronze color?

I agree with Uzo said. I would also make Death's color a closer color that more of a silver finish you could add a gleam on it as well.

Are the other two animated as well?

[Inccubus]

The stands are great. I'm imagining the animations for them being a laugh for Grims and flailing snakes for the god-forsaken medusa head.

Is someone updating the thread for November's contest?

I would, but I don't think I have permissions to do so..

Mods?


By the way judges need to start stepping up!

Last month it seemed like everyone wanted to be a judge...lol

And I need one more judge for the 3-D Contest for November if anyone wants to volunteer for that contest as well...

I think that covers it...

[uzo]

I'll take a judges spot again.

Also we should probably make a new thread, otherwise this one will be horrendously cluttered and hard to slog through.

Agreed.

[Inccubus]

I presumed there would be a separate thread for each contest.

[theANdROId]

I don't think I'll begin with a task as daunting as making a Dracula End Boss...but I'd be happy to judge (if my "no-spriting-experience" experience isn't a problem.)
