Thought I'd get things rolling here by posting up some of my sprites. For a start I'll just be uploading the characters under the three subsections I posted already on Sonic Fans Unite, then updating both in time whenever I upload a new branch/set of characters. So, here we go...
Dragon Corp.
Dr. Seth
Seth is in charge of the whole thing. The sprites are almost entirely custom, apart from the hands. I've never been able to scratch hands very well, so unfortunately had to borrow those from Emerl.
He's supposed to be a young scientist of indeterminable species. He also suffers from a... slight mutation problem, as evidenced from the right arm, which he generally covers up with the glove on the full-dressed sprites.
Lady Diavolo & Lord Zack Saltress
They're not an actual Lord and Lady, rather, those are their titles within the company. They're Seth's second-in-commands.
Diavolo and Zack are both, yet again, bar the hands, entirely custom. Well, Zack does have some custom hands as well, but they're mostly from Emerl.
Diavolo is another relatively young character, though she's not meant to look it. She's gone through harsh times, and shows signs of it, having lost her leg, along with having a facial scar to show signs of her past.
Zack is more... cocky. He's been granted a new lease of life by both Seth and Diavolo, and intends to take it to it's fullest.
Butler
Despite being entitled 'Butler' and fulfilling that role, in technicality, he's actually quite high-ranking. He'll follow almost any order, despite the authority to override them.
His sprites are actually quite... old. They need replacing honestly. Yet again, they're custom, beyond the hands, but I know that I can do better than that these days, so will probably create a more cleanly sprited version at some point in the near future.
Character-wise, he's loyal to a fault. He doesn't neccesarily agree with Seth and his goals, but at the same time, he views Seth as his master, and no matter what doubts occur or come to be, he will never back down from Seth's wishes.
S.P.I.N.E
'S.P.I.N.E' is a small team of elite operatives within Dragon Corp., consisting of Skull, Pelt, Ivory, Never and Eer. Unfortunately, Skull, Pelt and Never are the only ones sprited so far.
Skull consists of an entirely custom body, with a heavily edited head and, once again, Emerl's hands. Despite probably being the character to most look like an official Sonic character, he's actually the most custom of the three, with both Pelt and Never being edits. I'm considering redoing them to make them more custom and unique at a future date. Although it is worthy of note on here - Pelt's larger, much more muscular form is almost entirely custom (though made with a lot of reference). Really big stuff is where I kind of excell when it comes to custom works, as I hope should be seen in a future post.
Skull himself is a complete ass. That... about somes up his character. He's just plain unfriendly to everyone. He's also the head of S.P.I.N.E.
Pelt is a nervous wreck. He's a genius, and his alternate form is extremely strong, yet he's too busy being absoloutely terrified of everything for that to help much.
Never is just... quiet, the silent type. Nooone in Dragon Corp. really knows much about her, beyond the fact that, despite being able to talk, she prefers communication through simple gesture, holding to the philosophy of actions being louder than words.
Possession And Demon Control Unit
Alex Ocraio & Kier
Here are both Alex and Kier. Alex is the primary hunter of the two, going out into the field in the search for demons, whilst Kier works more back at the base in research and support roles - not to say he can't hold his own in a fight.
Both sprites are for the most part custom. I did do some editing for Alex' hands and tails, both weaknesses of mine. Beyond that, the only real thing I used was Emerl as a form of pose reference, imitating the poses from there to make them more natural on the finished sprites.
As for the characters themselves, Alex is... an interesting case. Shi's... 'the best of both worlds' you could say. 'Gender unassigned' would be another valid term. Despite this, shi's relatively normal, spending most of hir time hunting demons or practising hir sword-skills.
Kier meanwhile is, despite evidence to the contrary, not a robot. Rather, he's a man capable of possessing machinery. He's not particularly able-bodied, so instead uses a robotic shell which he possesses to get out and about and live his life to the full.
The Outopia Family
The Outopian Triplets
Now, some of you may be thinking 'Hey, they're labelled as triplets, why is it that there are only two of them?' Well there's a very good answer for that. I'm lazy and haven't made a sprite of Hito yet.
Both characters are extremely heavy edits of Emerl, to the extent where the only real resemblance left are the hands of the posing. The heads are entirely scratch.
As for the characters themselves, Nen on the left is a conman. He makes himself out to be a god to garner followers, using illusions to help satisfy his ends. At the same time, whilst being manipulative, he believes he's doing the right thing - being a god to give people hope and such. Though, admittedly, recently he's been less 'Helping the masses' and more 'Hiding from the world atop a mountain after being mentally shattered', but still.
Kara, on the right, is slightly more psychotic. He wants to bring about the end of the world simply because he doesn't believe everyone else deserves to be happy when he's miserable. He has the ability to manipulate blood, and he puts it to heavy use. It's also caused him to pick up some... rather disturbing habits.
The Brute
This isn't so much a character as it is one of Nen's illusions. One that he never quite willingly creates.
The sprite is, from head to toe, entirely custom. The arms are borrowed from another sprite I made, though that was one of my customs as well, so I think I can get away with it in that regard. << >>
But yeah, as I said, this is less a character, more of an illusion. It's a metaphorical representation of the Outopian triplets father, created as an illusion by Nen's mind whenever he feels the need to punish himself over something. The creatures soul perogative is to bring misery to both Nen and Kara, and nothing else - something which Nen felt in life, was the only puurpose of his real father.
