Hey, look, it’s a sprite of Doctor Strange! Why, his movie just came out this week! That sprite is based on his Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 fight stance and everything! Even converted two of his classics logos into mini-logos! They’ve been added to the new GFX Generator, which is still one surfer short of an old-school Defenders line-up! That’s all I’ve got this time!

Sorry, I’m still dry as **** after the DangerTerrorHorrorThon, which wasn’t even a week ago. Don’t worry, I’m going to re-hydrate with two bottles of Arizona Iced Tea this weekend before getting back into the game.

edit 2016-11-05: Already drank one bottle of Arizona, so I’ve got enough power to make some fixes to the Doctor Strange sprite, along with making a more comic-accurate version.

Upgrading the GFX Generators to the new engines wasn’t easy and I’m surprised that it went that well. Still, fixes to the new GFX Generator engine:

1.) I made some fixes & improvements in September and thought I’d uploaded them then, but I somehow didn’t. The links on the outside frame let you skip around to different menu sections, but the “DONE” button link on the second menu page was busted until now.

2.) The redone version of the “Super Powers 176×192“ wasn’t displaying the mini-logos and I missed that when converting it to the new data format. That’s fixed now, too.

The original Castlevania turned 30 years old earlier this year, when I promised that you’d see more new tributes to that series during the DangerTerrorHorrorThon. Yesterday’s update featured a new sprite of Richter Belmont, but it’s time to pay homage to the original game.

Custom Sprites
– CastleVania: Darkwing Bat Phantom Bat, Frankenstein (the Creature), Fish Man, Flea Man & Hunchback (redone) and Medusa Heads (redone)

The new sprites and a new background based on CastleVania Stage 5 have been added to the new GFX Generator, which you can use to make pics like the one near the top of this post.

If you think the DangerTerrorHorrorThon is done with you today, you better think again. There will be yet another installment tonight to satisfy your ghoulish appetites.

previous parts: part 1

edit: mislabeled the Phantom Bat as Darkwing Bat (I was using the SotN sprites as extra reference), now fixed.

Here’s today’s batch of newness:

Custom Sprites
– Movies: El/Eleven from Stranger Things, Trash from the Return of the Living Dead and Frank Stewart from the WNUF Halloween Special. Yes, I know Stranger Things isn’t a movie, but it’s on that page for now.
– Castlevania: Richter Belmont (original outfit)
– Vanillaware: Sorceress (resprited and MUCH better)
– Other Games: Julie (Zombies Ate My Neighbors) in her select screen pose
– Marvel: Ghost Rider in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 stance

Mini-logos
– Movies: the Return of the Living Dead, Frank Stewart
– Television: Stranger Things

All of the new sprites and mini-logos were added to the new GFX Generator, which you can use to make pics like the one near the top of this post. I also added a “horror” character list so you can easily find horror characters to build your own nightmares.

The madness continues tomorrow with even more sprites!

Celebrating the debut of Marvel’s new Luke Cage series on Netflix by adding new sprites of Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Misty Knight, and…

So I went to make the above quick pic for Castlevania’s 30th anniversary (using the GFX Generator, of course) and noticed something odd. Sypha and Grant weren’t in the Konami section and the Belmont character didn’t have the Trevor sprite I’d made a while ago. All those things have been fixed now. While I was at it, I’ve uploaded the latest version of the GFX Generator engine with a few fixes here and there (some shadows look a bit off, but I’ll work on that) and the character switcher on the preview page:

Thanks to the way I wrote the new engine, I can add more things to that last-minute modifier section in future updates. Sorry for not having more new Castlevania sprites for today (the anniversary snuck up on me), but I think most of you know you’ll be getting some about a month from now.

Last, but not least, multiple pixel donations from Tonner Topper (thank you!) were added to the Sprite Rips and Sprite Edit Pack pages. Anyone looking for CPS2 bg effects should check out those custom packs on the Sprite Rips page!

That’s not the only thing going on here this week, though! Come back in a few days for an…

edit: as more proof that I work on this site when I’m half-asleep, I mistakenly had Topper’s name as Tonner when this was originally posted. I’m very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very sorry for messing up on that and it’s now fixed.
