by navsmed41

by Gate

by Spooky77

by spidey

Rules
-Can either submit directly into the thread or with a pm to me
-Can use whatever sources, but if using non-open source sprite edits, please be sure to get permission first
-You can submit previous work that you have made in the past
-You can submit as many entries as you'd like
-Each communities mods/admins can adjust these rules that fit their forum better

The last week of the month, each submission will be voted on by the community and winners will then be posted on Favorite Fiction Blog as part of a best of the best sort of thing. And yes, you can submit the same sprite edits for the contest at multiple communities (in fact, this is encouraged)

Thank you

There are some amazing spriters out there so this'll be one to watch

Might even have to throw some in myself

volzzilla · « **Reply #2 on:** July 03, 2009, 05:14:13 PM »

Altering things a bit. Submissions accept through the entire month of July, then voting will commence in early August. Selections from that voting will then be taken to Favorite Fiction Blog and voted on against other similar entries from other forums.

Spidermew · « **Reply #3 on:** July 03, 2009, 06:41:21 PM »

I cant actualy view those webpages, internet explorer cannot open them.

Ive made one of the sprites you mentioned there.

I did also make this bruce wane as the green lantern

volzzilla · « **Reply #4 on:** July 03, 2009, 11:28:00 PM »

woohoo, our first 2 submissions

volzzilla · « **Reply #5 on:** July 14, 2009, 04:36:57 PM »

Just to clear up a couple questions that have been asked that other may have had.

- You can use any outfit you want, all that matters is the character in general
- No section contest, as in, all entries will be judged against one another regardless if its from the Batman/Superman entry, or the Outside Marvel and DC one.
- Does not matter if someone else is doing the same character
- You can submit whatever to FF_Blog@yahoo.com if you'd prefer

And remember:
- You can submit previous work you did, no need to sprite something new that fits the list from before
- Can submit to as many forums as you'd like
- Entries due 11:59pm July 31st and will be voted on the week preceding it.
- Selections from each forum (winners and other notables) will then be voted on here afterwards

Finally, when you take the next link, there will be a comment about one forum having a cash prize for this contest.

you misunderstood me, previous work that fits the overall list as previously provided, i was just reiterating that comment and left out whatever because it was implied in the initial comments.

deanjo2000 · « **Reply #9 on:** July 16, 2009, 07:02:09 AM »

Here are a few old edits of mine.

volzzilla · « **Reply #10 on:** July 16, 2009, 11:17:12 AM »

hey, great looking stuff deanjo

Alexziq · « **Reply #11 on:** July 16, 2009, 11:47:27 AM »

Thats the best Jamie Reyes Ive seen to date

deanjo2000 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 16, 2009, 01:12:25 PM »

Thanks but looking back i should of made him a bit thinner

Jay_High19 · « **Reply #13 on:** July 19, 2009, 02:05:35 PM »

I'm slightly unclear here. The characters MUST be one from the lists in the first post correct?

volzzilla · « **Reply #14 on:** July 19, 2009, 02:07:48 PM »

Jay_High, yes, from that list due to the theme being characters discussed in the What If articles at Favorite Fiction Blog.

The reason why SpiderMew's other sprites are there is because he initially misunderstood something that I had implied instead of my stating directly.

And in an effort to help create more participation, the winner here at IMT will be able to choose a future WIP Focus article that was done similarly to this article on Scorpion: http://mmcelhaney-fiction.blogspot.com/2009/07/wip-focus-scorpion-by-hobgoblin.html

...but obviously you choose a different WIP to be featured.

Jay_High19 · « **Reply #15 on:** July 19, 2009, 09:48:00 PM »

Here's what I got for you today:

I revisited the Penguin sprite I made a few years back

and I tried my hand at the Batman Green Lantern

volzzilla · « **Reply #16 on:** July 21, 2009, 11:11:49 AM »

volzzilla · « **Reply #18 on:** July 24, 2009, 01:12:24 AM »

The Composite Superman

volzzilla · « **Reply #30 on:** July 28, 2009, 10:56:11 PM »

Been away for a little while...

Z999, all of those look amazing and i loved how you added some background effects to them.

Sic, Great looking Big Question and Dare...and I really liked your GL Batman from before too.

ZVitor, thats definitely the funniest entry here,

Jay, While Composite Superman looks good, please ask Kal-Elvis' permission so it could be included officially.

And change in the competition, the only active sprite contests now are here and at CVG United. Saying this due to the comment about the ability to enter in multiple locations before (MI, Scruffy, SGM, Unlimited, MFG)

You have until July 31, at 11:59pm to submit an entry here too.

volzzilla · « **Reply #31 on:** July 30, 2009, 10:59:56 PM »

So everyone knows, just a little more than 1 more day to enter as the deadline is July 31st at 11:59pm.

kekaulikejose · « **Reply #32 on:** July 31, 2009, 02:56:04 AM »

Zealot and Grifter...

Zealot...

Grifter...

-Whiplash- · « **Reply #33 on:** July 31, 2009, 02:59:27 AM »

Hey, it's General Zod:

kekaulikejose · « **Reply #34 on:** July 31, 2009, 03:12:18 AM »

Samurai Wolverine...

Space Ghost...

Pyramid Head...

Symbiote Scorpion...

Symbiote Electro...

Mr. Sinister...

Gho-Strider...

volzzilla · « **Reply #35 on:** July 31, 2009, 05:54:56 PM »

Thanks Whiplash, great looking Zod.

kekaulikejose, while all those look great, the only one that qualifies for this contest is Zealot as she was covered in a What If article at FF Blog. However, hold onto that Grifter as he'll probably get covered in a future article and thus be eligible for a future sprite contest, but with different characters that were then featured for part 2.

And so everyone knows, deadlines for entry are tonight at 11:59pm.

DARKTALBAIN · « **Reply #36 on:** July 31, 2009, 06:52:16 PM »

Pyramid Head...

I don't know who this guy is but ......... Oh snap , he just cut off Ken's head

Gho-Strider...

That was amusing

Vitamin · « **Reply #37 on:** July 31, 2009, 07:36:22 PM »

Maul from Wildcats

volzzilla · « **Reply #38 on:** July 31, 2009, 08:04:53 PM »

While Maul looks great he is not eligible for the contest as he was not mentioned in any of the What If articles at Favorite Fiction Blog. I am reposting this from the initial post about the contest to perhaps clear up some of the recent confusion regarding it.
