The Spriter's Club Reborn

My first sprite was a 'revamp' of Magmar. I'm using the term revamp extremely loosely here.
 
Um... well, I made these two (frankly terrible) sprites for a fake game, but I did those when I was about 10 anyway and they could hardly be counted as sprites. I'll see if i can find them...

Other than those, Bulbatwig was my first.

Yeah... I've always imagined it saying something like 'O HAI :D'
 
i got into spriting at the end of 2003 when i saw some people on pokemon crater make animations and splices with sprites. i saw a tutorial on how to make a sprite and i made a suicune/pikachu splice lol
i wonder if i can find it anywhere... it wasn't /that/ bad for a first sprite really
edit: woah i found it

My first, second and latest of the "series". That's about 6ish year gap. Any improvements?
 
Certainly. The first one was okay, but the second dropped in quality. But the third one is easily the best of the three, and is a great splice overall, but some fixes to the shading could be made.
 
Wow, I haven't sprited in forever. I decided to update the comic, located here.
New issue:

On the topic of first sprites, I believe this is my first.

Oh topic

I didn't know about limited GIF pallettes back then. xD; Anyway I made this sprite along with a friend of mine. This was either just before or shortly after I joined MHF (so I was in fourth/fifth grade), and I was inspired by Mewkitty's sprites and I wanted to try it too.

They weren't all as good though. xD In fact, they quickly got worse:

And beta Zephyr! This was her first incarnation. xD

...those were the days...

Anyway, once I had about 30 of these, I posted a small gallery topic at MHF. The general response was "don't quit your day job," but I wasn't deterred. We moved houses for a little while and I lost internet access, but during that time I practiced relentlessly, and when I returned I was able to open up a sprite shop, which quickly became quite popular. :3 And then I joined PC, and then I joined PMF, and the rest is history~
 
i was also inspired by mewkitty to sprite, i even made a sprite of one of her fake pikachus, haha D:
