Bass X Sprite thread - Neo Geo Pocket Style

[irishxtrash]

Yo.

It's been some time since I posted sprite work publicly, so I'll give it a go here.

I sprite in the Neo Geo Pocket style. This style was used by SNK for their Neo Geo Pocket handheld. I mainly scratch my work.

For my first batch:

Scorpion from Mortal Kombat.

ok so i have a question, i've been doing this sprite thing for some time now, haven't ripped any just got some and edited the crap out of them. i started out with the megaman sprites and soon enough moved up to the dragon ball z series. you know which one... everyone else does. lol so anyways the style you got is more or less the way the dbz series looks. long story short, how the hell do you design the basics for your characters? the walking and the running and all the other crap. i've been trying to make my own. just so i don't piss off anyone. i'm good at editing, but i want to be great at creating. any suggestions?
