Hey guys! Ever since the Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story ripping project revived, I was making plans on starting a sprite project of my own to accompany that one. Since a lot of users had a good time emulating the Mario & Luigi style in the past, I thought bringing it back would stir some interest.
Anyway, while there's nothing wrong with trying to aim to emulate this style as perfectly as possible, my man intentions on starting this sprite jam are to have fun and form new friendships (as well as strengthening current ones). A big goal I want to achieve in this project is to have most of the sprite artists and rippers who worked with M&L3 to contribute to this topic. I know this is a bit much to ask for, but considering that most of them hardly visit anymore, it would be nice if they were to return and be more inclined to converse with everyone else here.
There's no serious rules to follow here (you can even sprite in any style used in any of the M&L games if you want), but I might add some friendly guidelines later. For now, though, I'm kicking it off with this little something I created in my free time.

Hey, just because it's a style in a Mario game doesn't mean I feel the need to stick only to Mario characters.
I managed to sprite this little guy in the styles of both the first game and the third one. I would have done more and put him in a cooler pose, but since this is the first time I ever actually sprited in this style, I wanted to test the water. Considering how the lighting of these sprites don't make a large amount of sense to me, I think I might have made a mistake somewhere.
Also, does anybody know where there a good tutorials for this sort of thing? I knew there was a tutorial for the original M&L style on this site some time ago, but I don't know where that went off to.
