MK, challenging.

12 frames = 12 poses?

OK, that confirms it.

Although making 12 sprites of a racing car shouldn't be too hard.

[DOUBLE POSToops]

This is my first time spriting MK, and I remembered another PTer called Flame who made a back-view kart of Mario from MKDS for a compo. So I found Mario's kart from Mario Kart Arcade GP:

What with making the driving animations, jumping, maybe spinning too, I should reach the 12 pose limit easy.

EDIT: Animation added (4 poses used)

=D I like them all but specially SC's, I think it's got a better shading and of course animation does count for better appealing.

You'll notice I said Mario Kart DS and not Mario Kart Arcade GP. And if I interpreted what you said right, then that's an edit of someone else's work, which I said was not allowed. It doesn't matter if the original sprite was custom. If you don't start with a blank white canvas, then it's an edit.

It's a wonderful sprite, but it's not going to win you this contest.

Excuse me, but what the **** are you smoking? Did you even read what I wrote? You probably didn't, but if you look closely you'll see that I didn't say I edited the sprite. I got the inspiration from it.

I REMEMBERED seeing a sprite done in rear view, then went to find MKAGP screenshots and made the series of sprites. I can't believe I'm being accused of editing, man.

Anyway, I didn't notice the strict MKDS only rule. If you feel I must oblige to it, that I shall. So, shall I pointlessly edit the kart in order to meet the standards or is it ok as is?

EDIT: nevermind, I'll do it anyway -_-

I'm sorry. I must have said something that I had no business saying, because you had no reason to explode and scream at me like so if I didn't.

I said If I interpreted correctly, and obviously I didn't. Instead of acting like a three-year-old and throwing a fit, you should've simply corrected me, and I'd have apologized and made sure not to make the same mistake again.


And yes. Since you made those, it's fine for you to change them.

Hm.

Sorry about that, I get pretty mad when it comes to questioning my work.

(BTW double posted, I'll fix that).

I still wonder how you got that I edited from what I wrote. Anyway, I'll try and edit this, but it's gonna be hard.

I don't know about PT, but on MFGG, if you yell at everyone who criticizes your work, you're not going to make a lot of friends. Just saying.

Anyways, I've got 20 of the Karts done... Of course, 13 of them are the Standards, which are all the same sprite with different palettes, and then there's the Light Tripper and Light Dancer... So it's really only 7. Unless you count the wheel rotations.

x_X I never want to see the Hurricane again.

20 poses, sure, but they all look extremely similar. Not a lot of changes between them.

I don't think the animations would go so well if the poses were completely different. =P

And on the first animation I only have 7 poses, really. The last one uses 15 different poses (if you exclude boost and smoke anims).

I don't see how that can interfere in having better sprites...I still think SC's ones are better, I still think they have better shading and the car is perfect, I like the mushroom gif too ^_^. YM7's also good, Wario's car is also perfect, good shading =), I trhink you could change Mario a bit, he looks too tall and skinny.

Well this should be over by now, for me at least.

EDIT: Now, for a small rant...

- First off, this duel was clearly in your favour, seeing as how you got to pick the subject and everything. I could have complained right at the start, seeing as a duel should probably have a subject that both spriters agree to sprite on (at least that's what I usually see in other duels), but whatever: I managed to sprite MKDS anyway (after editing the earlier MK sprite).

- Secondly, your views on spriting are rather different, I believe. When I made the animations (which total up to 17 different sprites, recycled between them), you said, and I quote:

YoshiMonarch7
 
20 poses, sure, but they all look extremely similar. Not a lot of changes between them.


I was wondering, have you ever ripped sprites before? Well, if you ever decide to, notice that each frame in an animation cannot differ from the previous one, or the animation will not be fluid.

I can only assume that you think your work is better because you're doing different karts with a few frames each, whereas I made only one kart.

- Finally, I was wondering this one last issue. You're obviously a very mature and grown up person, seeing as you can say that I acted "like a three-year old", which must make you clearly older than three years of age. I'd say around 6.

Anyway, I can only assume that you and I wouldn't accept defeat if either one of use were to lose here in WoN. So, if you want, we can take this duel to MFGG or PT, whichever, and the results won't vary. I doubt that aesthetic taste when it comes to sprites differ that much, especially when comparing two sprites. Of course, this is probably your call, since mostly all aspects of this duel have been your call anyway.

I don't care.

Well, little under twenty minutes left... don't think I'm'a get any more done on this in time, so h3r3:

As you can see, it's extreme WIP.

I am not pleased with the way Peach came out... I think it's her hair. Maybe I'll redo her sometime. I'll finish this later and submit it to MFGG or something.


Uh, yeah. SC, we need an actual sheet of the sprites. The animations are all well and good but we can't really see them well because each fram only shows up for like half a second.

Once SC posts his sheet, everybody get voting. Whoever gets the most votes, YOU'RE WINNER.
