Baaaaack on topic, folks. Nothin' to see here.
Oh, except for this...

My attempt at an Apogee-style sprite, based on this (NSFW language) picture by Kitten of Hardcore Gaming 101 for my own HG101 EGA Graphicking Compo. As implied earlier in this paragraph, the sprite is done with only the 16-color EGA palette. The face looks weird, but it's hard to really pull off a face type like that in only 9 pixels.

It kinda looks like a duck with a shotgun. Not a bad effort, EGA is beautifully limiting. Dangerous Dave was one game I have fond memories of.

Here is something I made a long time ago. I was attempting Commodore style graphics.

While I'm looking through all my old stuff, here's another. A unfinished sprite based off of a figure. (my attempt at free handing)

Replica of the Doom marine I never finished. The sculpt of the helmet came out great but it dissolved thanks to the wonderful Florida humidity. I may work on this again one day. Sorry for the onslaught of post's but I was bored....

Since I'm in middle of updating the drone sprites from the Aliens TC and I've been in an Aliens in general, I've whipped up some random stuff

Some chestburster sprites, I'll probably do a full set of these since it doesn't take very long to make these sprites (the ones you see here were made in about 45 minutes)

The dog alien and praetorian. The dog might get a full set, the praetorian not so likely.(note: the praetorian was based off a Deviantart image, since I couldn't find a good piece of official art as a reference)

Wow! Those look impressive. Shame you're not doing a full set - but understandable.

DrDoctor if I can get Meghan Fox to go on a date with you, will you promise to make a complete set? :D

Best sprite I've seen in a long time.

Move them closer together.

No, closer.

CLOSER!

Yay, now they're playing leap-frog!
What did you expect me to say?

Didn't the bursters have legs? Been a while since I saw the movie.

Oh and that hires one is friggin' awesome. Hope somebody uses it somehow.

No in Alien the chest burster had no legs, in the evolution of the Xenomorph species between the two movies (Aliens) they developed arms to easier escape the inside of their victims.

The larger Alien sprite on the bottom-right is amazing! Would you mind if I use bits and pieces of it to put together a Space Jockey sprite? The legs and arms on that thing are the best jumping-off point I've seen so far.

I made this BB Gun from scratch for a mod of mine.

You have NO idea how painstaking this was - I made the whole entire thing in Paint (dithered by hand - pixel for pixel with Paint's pencil)
But it came out nice :D
