Sprite Jam: Celebrity Cameo!!!!

[Hueij]

Hahaha it's Dr. Cox!

Dr. who?

[Kaio]

I was not familiar with the fact that there ARE indeed some people, who don't know the mighty Dr. Cox. It's a sad world.  :'(

Dr. who?

No, not dr. Who, dr. Cox!

I looked him up on Wikipedia. Of course I did't know him, he is from an American comedy, and since American comedies are seldom funny I scrubbed it...

Yes, very questionable indeed...

I've PMed Questionable asking for a winner, but if I don't hear from him soon I'll settle it the old fashioned way...

Just give me a little time to work out what the old fashioned way is.

It's a pistol dual at dawn.  Sounds reasonable to me.

You guys really made it tough on me! I chose Urkel because I think more than any other sprite he was more of a representation of the essence of Urkel than JUST a sprite version of the character.  Dr. Cox took second place because he threatened to skull fuck me, if I didn't, and also the amount of accuracy and eerie detail was pretty impressive. Lastly, I was torn between Marty, Betty, Han and Clint; ultimately I weighed out: How recognizable was the character, how practical is the character, how detailed/well made was the character, how visually appealing was the character. Han Solo feels a bit muddled to me and Dirty Harry (while made awesome) wasn't instantly recognizable. Marty and Betty was tough. I REALLY REALLY like what Prog did with the sprite (and that Mock-Up is TEH AWESOME) but ultimately I kept thinking about the style used for Betty; it's all at once, simple, complex, intriguing, beautiful and descriptive. Betty was recognizable and would be easy to implement in a game. I finally settled that Betty seemed more like a Cameo where-as Marty felt like a Star.

So there you have it AGS! Your winners!   I've been a bit busy lately, so- hopefully I'll be able to whip up some awards.... not sure what they would be made of, though...

[Pixelton]

Well done guys!

[Saberteeth]

I won? Holy crap! That was so unexpected, I seriously thought most of the entries were better than mine. Ah well, thanks!
