I recently came up with an idea for some cool sideart, but I'm not sure how to create it. I was thinking of taking numerous 8-bit sprites, particularly from the NES (maybe some SNES and others thrown in there too), and create an epic scene of them coexisting/battling it out. To name a few examples, one idea I had was to put "fire" Mario from Super Mario Bros against Link from Zelda 2. Also, I would have Ken from SF2 fighting Scorpion from MK. I was thinking that this epic battle could take place on a specific Metroid (NES) background (the scene with the blue platforms close to the beginning of the game). I'm thinking that there could be a separate "event" taking place on each of the platforms. The only problem is that I'm not really sure how to implement these ideas. I've found 8-bit sprites, but they're all on sheets connected to other 8-bit sprites. I would need to copy and paste individual sprites. Also, I'm having trouble locating the Metroid background screen that I am looking for. Does anyone know how I could go about this idea? I really want artwork that stands out for my next project. Thanks :) |

I have seen that pic before, but I am only interested in the blue platforming section. Is there away to cut out and enlarge just that part? Also, how could I add any sprites? :dunno |

Not to be discouraging, but if you don't know how to edit a picture with cut/paste, perhaps you should reconsider your goal. Maybe learning to use an editor would be a better first step. Just saying. :dunno |

When I read in the first paragraph that he had sprite sheets and didn't know how to copy / paste them, I didn't see how he was going to make anything. |
