I'm curious with all of the spriters on this forum, what do you consider to be your best/favorite pixel art or sprites you've made?
Post an image of your work and describe why you like it so much!
I did a lot of cool pixel art in my Advent Calendar thread. Even though I did not have a chance to apply some AA to most of them, I did end up with some really cool sprites.
Personally, I like how the candy cane at the bottom looks like it could be used in one of Rare's Donkey Kong Country games.
Favourite? I think I was on the right track a few topics back when I made more varied sprites. Also, now I rarely sprite, so my work is sub-par. But, anyway, I like this one.
It's not especially good, and it's really just a Blastoise edit, but my friends and I had a "sprite your own pokémon" contest with a half an hour time limit, and this is what I made. Good times.
I made these two sprites for last year's Halloween, and I really felt proud back then, and I still do now.
Out of all the pixel art I've ever posted on TSR, I feel these 3 were the best:
A little something I made for the Easter event last year:
My TUGS round 1 entry (except for all the banding...):
Lastly, my TUGS preliminary round entries, specifically the silhouette and Heavy:
There are a couple other sprites I've made/am working on that I feel are much better, but I don't want to reveal them yet.
My favorite pixel works that I made are a few sprites I made 8 months ago for my failed attempt at making a Wario and Waluigi Rpg.
After a getting a good look at them now I can see that there are a lot of issues with them, but these were the first few sprites I made that I thought were actually successful. I was having a lot of difficulty with pixel art at the time and it was these sprites that made me think I was finally beginning to improve as a pixel artist.
Well, this is one that I do like. Not sure if my favorite, but it's a good one. That and there's my SRB2 Knuckles (which was added in the newest version).
