Description
Oh look! Another Paper Mario sprite... and it's another dragon... Yeah, I've kind of run out of ideas for good sprites. For a larger sprite, though, it was fairly simple and fun to make. I definitely think that the curly antennae looks nice in the final product. Coloring larger sprites can be a bit confusing at times because you have more space than you know what to do with. Also, it seems like the colors are too far apart in value. The eye also gave me a slight bit of trouble, but I think it turned out okay. Other than that, this sprite was extremely fun to make!Check out the YouTube videos here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nb6hC…

You are constantly getting better, I need to practice the BIS sprites more...
Do you mind if I mess arround with it and see if I can make a full body?

Thank you so much. Your comment just made my day! XD I'm glad somebody thinks I'm improving. I definitely needed to improve after looking back at some of my old sprites >.>
Sure, I don't mind if you make a full body. Just please be sure to give me credit for the head. Thanks again!

Oh yea of course.
I watched the video as well.
I'd also reccomend in the future to size the sprite as well. Compare the size of Mario compared to hooktail in the game. And then ajust the size according to the difference for Bis.
BTW, what program where you using in the video? My program only has one layer is why I was asking.

Thanks for watching the video.
I tried sizing Hooktail according to Mario's size (that was one of the parts that got cut out of the video accidentally), but the sprite became too large and unmanageable, so I scaled it down. But I get what you're saying ;D
I use GraphicsGale. I downloaded the free "trial" (it lasts forever), which seems to have all the normal features as far as I can tell. The free version at least has all of the basics needed for spriting.

Hmm I see.
Yea, While Scaling it may be whats needed, Its always best to "try" to keep sizing proportunate. Either way its a good sprite, I can't wait to see more...
Maybe do Admiral Bombery Next? I remember you saying he was your favorite.
