| I do not want to use a 3d modeler...because I dont need that....this is a 2d game....a 3d modeler is way too much to use for this.... I have tried hand drawing my sprites in paintbrush....but that makes them look childish and not very well done. Are there any good sprite making programs out there? I need a program that would aid me in making my sprites. Especially when my sprites for characters have to be as small as 13x13 pixels.... |

| One technique I've seen is to hand-draw your sprites with pencil and paper then scan them. Clean up the scan, then paint in your colors/shadows/etc.. If I'm not mistaken that's what Capcom did for the Street Fighter 2 game series. |

I was going to buy a scanner a few weeks ago, so I could do this. However, I realized that it would be of no purpose to me right now, because I wouldn't be able to implement the figures into my games (bad consoles!). Over the course of this school year I have become much better at drawing from doing all of my sketches during my insanely simplistic math class. | |

| Paint Shop Pro 6 (NOT 7, 7 is slower for some reason) of Photoshop 6 or 7. those are the tools of choice

| Here's a sprite using what I... Well, I just made a sprite, just seeing how good I could do. I think it's pretty good, seeing as it's my first try at a character. Anyhow, I will attach the .bmp. I used techniques I learned from the posted link http://www.gaminggroundzero.com/file...ritemaking.doc

| Pretty cool little guy. Looks like a sprite you'd see in a 2d rpg. |
