Tried to find the earlier works before settling in with this ugly one made waay back in 2007. I settled with the PM style after that (sslliggghhtly easier to work with, but yeah).
..
Let's say '06 and '07 weren't exactly my best years at spriting.
Scratch that..

I was one of those "Sonic sires" back in the day. :/

And this, was my first attempt at sprite effects. At least I knew not to upload .BMP files back then. I got more old-as-fuck sprites but they are horrible.

I can't find my 2001 work (which is when I started spriting) It was an edit of Rex from SMW and a Koopa riding a horse. But here are my 2002 sprites which were accepted into Ninsprites!

You may notice the "Koopal" they're that old...
EDIT: Mattdog you're BACK!

Kind of going backwards from late 2006:
This Sidescroller idea's what evolved into my current Pokemon Project:
![[Image: pkmnsidescrollermockup.png]](http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/586/pkmnsidescrollermockup.png)
Hey look, this is about when I started to shade rather than just throw dithering on:
http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/7686/pk...challe.png
I can't believe I ever thought this looked good:
![[Image: pkmntwcharacters23.png]](http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/4281/pkmntwcharacters23.png)
The Idea was that instead of Gyms, you would fight a bunch of teams, ala Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, more Emerald, since you face both teams...Also, 'Shaide' inspired a newer character of mine seen Here
More Pokemon
![[Image: pkmnjoshversions2.png]](http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/4971/pkmnjoshversions2.png)
This is most likely my first Pokemon Project...Why did I used to completely outline with the Darkest shade? Actually, I think I thought it looked better...
Closer to when I started doing customs, rather than Recolors and edits, I thought everyone had their own 'style' they were good at...apparently, I thought KH: CoM was the one style I was good at, but obviously, I was wrong...:
![[Image: khcomlink.png]](http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/6277/khcomlink.png)
Ugh...Need I say more?
![[Image: linka.png]](http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/8450/linka.png)
I later named this 'Crap Style' because that's what it is
Ah Samus, my earliest Custom sheet on this computer...made back in '04:
![[Image: samusaran.png]](http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/6951/samusaran.png)
All I have to say is who thought it was a good idea to teach me about motion Blurs back then? Ugh, I didn't know what I was doing...
...Yeah, I don't know why I thought this was going down memory lane, it clearly says 'first sprites'

This is from late 2002 to early 2003.

So yeah... words like "shading" and "light source" weren't on my book back then.

Digging through my old CD backups I found my very first serious edit ever, from early 2002.
It's a MM7 Freeze Man edit and the least said about it, the better.

I fucking hate myself
oh and back then I assumed that everyone just edited sprites for their webcomics
customs were an abstract idea to me at the time
