Lieutenant Reginald "Regie" Thompson was well liked by his Platoon unfortunately no of them would be able to tell you that because none of them survived the Battle of Bayencourt 3. Regie was the only survivor of that bloodbath on that fateful day.
Mangled into something barely recognisable as being human, the team of surgeons toiled for 7 hours grafting his body to the PermiBody Armour that had been recently developed. As one of the first recipients of the UniArmy's new body's for soldiers scheme Regie was a willing participant and while he was never the same either emotionally or physically Lieutenant Thompson was now one of UniArmy's elite unit of soldiers, and he found some solace in his chance of revenge against those who killed those he cared for and left him as a twisted shell of his former self.
Oh yeah. 128 x 128. 16 colours. Also does he count as a creature? I probably should have paid more attention to the objective.

She's kind of a cyborg - enhancements and improvements of the human body that are in contrast to the individuum, that thinks itself kind of encaged I presume.

He does, no worries. I meant "creature" in a general sense: animals, humans, aliens, plants, zombies etc.

Sparkys sprite is 195 pixels in width but I'm going to accept it because those extra pixels in the middle don't give the sprite any unfair advantage over the others. It would be appropriate though if you kept it within 128 pixels.
Voting time!
kaioshin's rocket snail gets my vote. The little satellite dish on his head was a great idea. And, of course, the all-around concept :D
Great work, everyone
Sorry SilverTrumpet but you didn't participate in the contest so unfortunately your vote doesn't count.
Apologies, I wasn't sure about that in the first place... I meant to read the rules but didn't.
All these sprites are great. I would have to say I like Bohnito's sprite the best. Great use of contrast and highlights.
Also does anyone else think it looks a bit like Big Bird? So it gets the sentimentality award too. ;)
I love the rocket snail! It has a great retro sci-fi feel to it. For some reason I am reminded of The Monster that Challenged the World (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050722/).
I like Pierre_RGN's Cybercat most! As everyone said, all sprites are great!
These sprites all look great! I know I'm not a participant, so I can't vote, but I was just wondering: when was the voting rule ever instated? In the past, the host always chose the best one.
this is democracy ;) !
I was just wondering ... I put my sprite on a transparent background and it looks less nice on the blue background of the forum than it looked with a black background ( when I drew it ) ...
The frog / flea picture uses a white bg, it still looks nice but I guess the blue deserves me as I picked a blue/gray for the metallic parts !!
Anyway !!
Is the voting over ?
Steel Drummer: There was no official change of rules. The voting was my idea. Apparently it's not forbidden so I thought a little variation won't hurt.
Pierre_RGN: the voting is not over yet(-> first post).
Also if you think your sprite doesn't look as good on the forum background you can still change it.
Ok, time to announce the winner. All entries are really great. I had a hard time deciding which is my favourite, but in the end my vote goes for Bohnitos cyber-chicken.
This makes Bohnito the winner of this contest. Congratulations!
Thank you guys for participating!
my vote goes to Sparky! well done
You already won mate.
lol :)
Oh, yeah :o. i didn't see that! whoo im happy, thanks
