Soul Calibur 2 Girls :: Pixel Art Detail

This is something I've been doing lately, not for animation necessarily, but since I generally pixel for beading purposes with the fuse beads, I only require stills. I am working on a set of "Where the Wild Things Are" sprites right now, which I'm pixeling from scratch, using the MacFarlane toys as a reference.

While these look great, I would deffinitely recommend that you learn or get used to (in case you do know) drawing the poses from scratch... it will help you a lot when learning animation.

Antifarea, that's correct.. As I say in the description, they are "converted" to a color palette associated with Perler fuse beads. Some people use conversion software or a custom palette index, but I pixeled these by hand using the original jpegs as the resized base image. After I have the initial trace done, I make edits to each sprite by using the original sized image as a reference, so it's not complete "noise".

If I'm correct... you resized the original jpgs, then traced them over and turned them into sprites? they look identical in terms of poses, and that's the only way you could have made them.
