Author Topic: Making avatars based on my own (not taking new requests)  (Read 20382 times)

Last night, I put together the pixel animation you (probably) see on the left to use as my avatar.  Since then I've gotten involved in the avatar improvement thread and made several variations on my avatar as jokes.

More minecart: (for Alyx Vance)


Even moar minecart: (same)


Slightly less moar minecart: (for Tremrist)


More poison gas killing everyone: (for Jacob 123456789)


More DK: (for Kniaz, currently in use by Chrono)


Anyway, since these are really not that hard to make by the method I'm using, animated or not, I'm here to tell you now that YOU can have your very own variation on my avatar.  Just tell me what you would like to be different and I'll see if I can work something out.

If you ask for one at this point, it's very unlikely I'll make it for you.  The process of making these isn't terribly hard, but it is surprisingly tedious and tiring.  If I really like your request, I may still make it, though.

If you want to make your own, here's the scrolling background without any characters.



And here are the individual frames:



Or, if you want to animate it yourself, here are the background components.  I also included the minecart guy for some reason.



More useful stuff to know for animating:

The cart is 1 pixel higher than usual on the 13th and 16th frames.

Each frame has a duration of 4 100ths of a second.

Overall, the animation runs at 25 frames per second.

no background
bigger minecart

luigi and dk in minecart.

Needs moar boulders chasing him

invisible minecart so it looks like he is just floating through the air
what game is this from, if it is a game?




More to come later, but I figure I'll post what I have now.

less minecart

no minecart

Hopefully this will satisfy all three of you.


no background
bigger minecart

I'm pretty sure I got the "bigger minecart" part right, but I'm not sure what you meant by "no background".

Here you go.


what game is this from, if it is a game?

I drew the graphics myself, so it's not from any game.  Stylistically, though, it's based on countless Game Boy Color games.

A Headcrab minecart if possible

try putting a smaller version of my avatar sticking out of the minecart

My blockhead (avatar) than the miner.

princess peach and yoshi in the minecart ;D
