Description
To show off both how much I suck at drawing backgrounds, how much I rule at drawing Sparkster and that I am a Rocket Knight Adventures fan who intends to draw another pic of Sparkster some day. This pic is a bit old. Late 2002. Enjoy!Related content

My bro did. I never did. But if you think the last boss was hard, you shoulda tried the game on "Hard". There were three difficulties: Easy, Normal, and Hard (Which was unlocked once you win, I think). Good grief. Whoever made "Hard" mode was sadistic. Imagine Normal mode, but you start with one life and no matter who hits you, one hit will kill you. You may as well ignore your health bar.

I just wish Konami would just make another Sparkster game already! It's been 12 years, Konami, You OWE it to us and YOURSELVES to revive him at least ONCE.

I think there's a petition out there somewhere. If Sparkster could show his face on a new-gen system... that would ROCK.

Actually, if you look it up on Wikipedia, they're putting him into one of the sports minigame things featuring Konami characters for the Nintendo DS. Also, he could always appear as an assist trophy (Or maybe even a playable character!) in Super MSash Bros. Brawl

Unfortunately, everyone says that online petitions, more often than not, fail.

Did you ever try Hard mode on that game (The first one: "Rocket Knight Adventures")? I have yet to speak to anyone who won the game on Hard mode. Seeing as how you get no continues, 1 life, and if anyone hits you, it's an instant kill. So you have to play the game through untouched.

I think the best I ever did on Hard mode was get well into stage 6. Never could beat it at that level though.

LOL! Saturn? RKA and Sparkster (RKA2) were genesis and *not* Saturn to my knowledge. Though Sparkster came out for the SNES also.

Antoine wishes he was as cute as Sparkster! And yeah... that was his newer look in the second game. There was Rocket Knight Adventures and then there was "Sparkster".

I liked the first game more, but I like the idea of being able to see more of the character. Gives him... personality. Took me years to like his new look more than the old look, though.

Ya... that was the same for me... when i played the second game, the gameplay almost looked like it should have been the first one, not the second. In time i grew to like the second look... but still not as much as the glorious first look. Thats just clasic, like this Ilistration of yours XD brings back memories

AtariRaccoon In reply to Timothius [2006-03-28 20:25:36 +0000 UTC]
D'oh, was Sherry, since her last name was Zebulos (had to dig up the old manual for the first game to get myself straight there).

You know, that's a thought... oh right, I actually did once over 10 years ago. Certainly nowhere's near as good as how I draw today. Should do a redo.

I miss that game,good thing I have the first one,The series was so underrated
Anyway,I think the background is decent, just a little more detail on the rocks could have help
Nice job this is a fav, by the way, I finished that Spakster pic you requested,the link is on your user page if you didn't see it.
