The Tekken sprites from this week’s ScrollBoss update get a gallery page and I updated the Growl sprite page with the re-sized Doll sprites and the extra Genesis/Mega Drive palettes.

The female enemies from Taito’s Growl (known as “Runark” in Japan) finally got a gallery page. These were late additions to last week’s ScrollBoss update. This update doesn’t have much in it because I worked on a lot of things I can’t show you right away. Here are some annoying teasers for them:
You’ll see those sprites in the next Illmosis and ScrollBoss updates. Those next two things, well, you’ll see that right before The War Begins Again in a few months. The last thing is a new teaser of something I posted a teaser of in the middle of last year. It’s one of those off-and-on projects I work on a bit at a time and I’m pretty close to having a version of it done. So, yeah, just because I posted a teaser for something nearly a year ago doesn’t mean that I’ve forgotten about it.

Today’s update is a new scratch-made sprite of Tanya, a playable character from Atari Games’ heavily-mocked arcade beat-em-up, “Guardians of the ‘Hood.” Click the small picture to see the sprite’s gallery page and check out the reference pic to see how she looks compared to her original, digitized counterpart. She’ll be in this week’s ScrollBoss update that has Tanya and Link (from last week’s update here) joining the Screenshot Generators along with a new background feature.

Beatdown is finally in full color and I really like how she turned out. I’ve been tweaking her backstory for a while and working on stories where she appears (including one in which you won’t recognize her at first), so it’s good to finally have a full-color picture of her. The other new thing in this update is a sprite of Link from the Legend of Zelda. That’s right, the original. The 26th anniversary of the game was a few days ago and I felt the need to celebrate that. An early version of this was posted on the ScrollBoss site on Wednesday, but this picture has a later version of it. Click on the small pictures in this post to see the gallery pages for them. The regular version of this sprite and the mini-logo will be in next week’s ScrollBoss update along with some Graphic Generator upgrades and new backgrounds.

The title almost says it all, but not quite. I still wasn’t happy with how she looked, so I digitally retraced the lines instead of my usually smudge/contrast line cleaning method. It’s a method that I’m still trying to get a handle on, but I like how it turned out here.

I just updated ScrollBoss with some Pac-related sprites, but I’m a bit worn out and only have a page ready for Ghost Monsters here. There’s a brand new sprite of Sue and a standard Ghost Monster sprite that has been palette swapped for all the original monsters. I’ll have pages for the other sprites ready next week.

The next in the series of sprites for Aaron Pinsky’s “Sheol” is here! The new sprite is Fredrick Steinwald, a man who gets into the tournament to do more than just kick in some heads. Click the preview pic over there to see the full Sheol sprite page and learn about the character. This was my favorite design so far because, hey, it’s a ninja. You know how I am.
I’m splitting work between the next website (currently putting the finishing touches on the layouts and WP theme), this site and ScrollBoss, so updates for both existing sites will be a bit slow and low sometimes. My first fan-art sprite of 2012 at about 97% right now and will be ready in time for both the next Illmosis and ScrollBoss updates next week.
(edit 2012 Jan 24) – The Ms. Pac-Man gallery page was fixed by adding the link to the wallpapers. Yes, I feel stupid about messing that up. Click the picture below to download the pack with 1024 x 768, 1280 x 1024 & 1440 x 900 wallpapers.
Why did I just happen to notice this? Tune in next week to find out.

New Twofold crossover pic! Click the small picture to see and learn more! I also added some of the old filecards I drew for my characters back in the 1990’s. The new cards include Beatdown (in her original outfit) along with two villains who haven’t been posted here before: Chill and Fisticuffs. I also threw in another “Bug-Out” character named Monty Carlo.

“This is serious, P. Those things you saw up there? Those G–tst—ers? Them herbs ain’t even the worst. You stepped into some ish you can’t step out of because, one way or another, they’ll get all of us if we don’t fight back. Not now, but right now. If you wanna crawl back into bed, go back to dreamin’ and die in your sleep, well, that’s on you. But if you want to learn how to fight ’em… you came to the right dude.”
