Are you guys looking more towards sprite style (because if that's the case we really don't have a template for that and it depends on which CV game that you choose), adding accessories (i.e whip,), or both?
I interpret the criteria as, for example, taking Zero from the Mega Man series, altering his armor and design to fit the overall medieval and gothic look of Castlevania, replacing his Z Saber with, say the Crissaegrim, and then spriting that in an appropriate style.Yeah, do it if that's what you want. ¿Are you interested in having Chun Li seated on the Dracula's throne? Go for it!
Maybe we should narrow it down, because it sounds to me that we are going to have entries that are all over the place....This was the most important goal to me: Variety of entries. "Oh, but this is going to be difficult to Judge". Yeah, But it could be fun. Well, that was my intention behind the "Castlevanize" thing. I know it is not the most compatible idea with the sort of contests that had taken place recently in the forum. We'll see how this idea takes form.

Stuff like that.
I know it's incorrect, but for whatever reason I'm getting an Osmund Saddler vibe from him (only a lot brighter). But it definitely looks familiar.I think the staff help to think that, I edit the other post so you can see who is.

I based the sprite with this image:(click to show/hide)
for the contest its only the 2nd and the 3rd, the 1st its the same as the image, later I changed to make looks like more like an armor instead of space suit (Just a Little), the 2nd and the 3rd are the same, the only changes are the weapons, one have a laser Axe and the other have a Laser whip.

That is badd@$$...
I never even realized we had sprite contests.
I'm still a bit unsure of the acceptance criteria, but I think I've whipped up something that fits in with the Castlevania asthetic:

I almost exclusively stick to Fire Emblem-esqe palettes and styling, so this is a bit of a venture for me.
EDIT: This can be open-sourced. I have no aspirations of ever making this hobby monetary, lol.

Well, fuck.
*scraps Raziel he was working on*
Darkman, why are the pixels all fucked up on the sprite? They're certainly not in the right resolution to be SotN styled. They're all different sizes, offset, and overlapping their surrounding pixels.
I didn't get the impression he was upset or insulted. It's hard to tell in text but his post didn't come off that way to me.
Guess I misinterpreted, then. The "dude, seriously?" comment is what made me think you'd gotten bothered.
My bad.
As for my style yes, I indeed drew the sprite in photoshop with squares because I like that pixelated look.
