Illmosis / ScrollBoss prints sale!

November 25th to November 28th:
8×10 and 8×11 prints are $5.00 each!
11 x 17 and 11 x14 prints $8.00 each!

The prints are on the Shop page here and more non-game art on the Illmosis prints page in this link!

edit: I’m adding a small incentive to this, starting now. I just realized I have a few secret sprites for next year’s projects that just happen to have Black as part of the character name. So I made one more sprite and came up with an idea.

There are five sprites in that screenshot up there. For every print that sells before Monday, I’ll unlock one of those sprites in the custom sprite galleries and main GFX Generator. If anyone buys, I’ll make a fake hi-score screen with with the buyer’s 3-letter initials and display name of their choice and scores based on the number of prints bought. I know it’s not much, but it’d be my way of thanking you for buying something. If nothing is bought, those sprites will stay in the vault until their projects are done (next year or later).

Whether you buy or don’t buy, I hope you’re having a good weekend!

Custom Sprites
– Nintendo – Samus Aran, Donkey Kong Jr. and the Ice Climbers
– Data East – Karnov (new pose in his original look)
– Illmosis – Nutroll (new fight stance sprite)

Mini-logos
– Data East: Trio the Punch
– Nintendo: Ice Climbers

The new sprites and logos have been added to the new fighter scale GFX Generator. That generator also got the gold 16×16 font from Fighter’s History Dynamite/Karnov’s Revenge and the “Mego WGSH 176×192” got a new set of Data East portrait bubbles!

As a celebrator of Karnovember, it’s my duty to send you a link to the Karnovember Tumblr tag, because that’s where I first heard about it. I’ll be doing my part to add content to that tag soon.

recent stuff elsewhere:
Gaming Hell just added a page about Namco’s Numan Athletics and Mach Breakers, their super-powered sports games. There’s some really cool info in there, including a few things to prove that the games are linked!

Shadi dipped into the legendary Taito vault by adding shrines for Bubble Bobble, Puzzle Bobble and Kuri Kinton to Arcade Quartermaster

There’s a reason why I managed to build an update so random that I couldn’t come up with a cohesive, goofy news post title. The plan was to drop a mini-update last Friday with Samus, the Ice Climbers and DK Jr. and build up to a full Karnovember update and an update with Illmosis characters (with Nutroll). That was until I was worn out by extra work at my day job, something that was going on for a while but really kicked into high gear last week. Combined with some sinus-related fun, I feel like I’ve been dropkicked down an elevator shaft and that includes pains in my drawing and spriting hand. Honestly, I probably need to rest for a little bit anyway, but this makes it obvious. I’ll be back in effect mode by early December, if not sooner. As Guru once said, “Peace out, we’ll be back, stay tuned.”

I was going to do an update last week, but extra work at my day job has been wearing me out. I did a bit of work in Anime Studio 10 using one of the new spites (along with an older sprite modified to work with it):

There will be new scratch-made Samus sprites in the next update, possibly this week or weekend.

Comments Off on Some Samus for you

Hey, look, it’s a sprite of Doctor Strange! Why, his movie just came out this week! That sprite is based on his Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 fight stance and everything! Even converted two of his classics logos into mini-logos! They’ve been added to the new GFX Generator, which is still one surfer short of an old-school Defenders line-up! That’s all I’ve got this time!

Sorry, I’m still dry as **** after the DangerTerrorHorrorThon, which wasn’t even a week ago. Don’t worry, I’m going to re-hydrate with two bottles of Arizona Iced Tea this weekend before getting back into the game.

edit 2016-11-05: Already drank one bottle of Arizona, so I’ve got enough power to make some fixes to the Doctor Strange sprite, along with making a more comic-accurate version.

The original Castlevania turned 30 years old earlier this year, when I promised that you’d see more new tributes to that series during the DangerTerrorHorrorThon. Yesterday’s update featured a new sprite of Richter Belmont, but it’s time to pay homage to the original game.

Custom Sprites
– CastleVania: Darkwing Bat Phantom Bat, Frankenstein (the Creature), Fish Man, Flea Man & Hunchback (redone) and Medusa Heads (redone)

The new sprites and a new background based on CastleVania Stage 5 have been added to the new GFX Generator, which you can use to make pics like the one near the top of this post.

If you think the DangerTerrorHorrorThon is done with you today, you better think again. There will be yet another installment tonight to satisfy your ghoulish appetites.

previous parts: part 1

edit: mislabeled the Phantom Bat as Darkwing Bat (I was using the SotN sprites as extra reference), now fixed.

Here’s today’s batch of newness:

Custom Sprites

– Castlevania: Richter Belmont (original outfit)
– Vanillaware: Sorceress (resprited and MUCH better)
– Other Games: Julie (Zombies Ate My Neighbors) in her select screen pose
– Marvel: Ghost Rider in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 stance

Mini-logos

– Television: Stranger Things
– Vanillaware (new!): Vanillaware and Dragon’s Crown logo

All of the new sprites and mini-logos were added to the new GFX Generator, which you can use to make pics like the one near the top of this post. I also added a “horror” character list so you can easily find horror characters to build your own nightmares.

The madness continues tomorrow with even more sprites!

“We’ll be right back.”
