| Posted by: Peardian May 6 2009, 06:07 PM |
| First off, congrats to Des, ClownMan and the others for their great entries in the other competition. :D For this competition, the idea is to create smaller enemy versions/minions of existing bosses. Like how Petey Piranha is a bossified Piranha Plant and how Lord Crump commands the X-Nauts, but the other way around. The catch is, you can't sprite an enemy that already exists. Here are the rules and restrictions:

| Mini Bouldergeists? Oh yeah. |
| Posted by: Flamedragon May 6 2009, 07:13 PM |
| I might passed on this one.. |
| Posted by: CyberkidX May 6 2009, 07:29 PM |
| I'll have to give this a shot. |
| Posted by: Redux May 6 2009, 07:40 PM |
| Dang, was hoping for another single enemy comp. These competitions where people can do basically anything makes it hard to compare sprites. |
| Posted by: Buggo May 6 2009, 07:44 PM |
| This will be fun. Now who to sprite? Oh, yes... I think they haven't ever had a mini version of them... can we use the pallets of the boss so the it fits the game? |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 6 2009, 08:03 PM |
| this compo will be hit and miss with me. i wish luck to you all. |
| Posted by: Fez May 6 2009, 08:04 PM | ||
So long as it has less than 15 colours, yes. Also, YES, Pear! This is awesome, I'm in. |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous May 6 2009, 08:55 PM |
| Sounds interesting. I can't wait to see what people come up with. I'll enter. |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous May 6 2009, 10:04 PM | ||
Yeah but it also adds a creative element to it. |
| Posted by: Glukom May 6 2009, 10:09 PM |
| This is a very interesting idea, finally. |
| Posted by: Guinea May 7 2009, 12:53 AM |
| I might even come up with something here. |
| Posted by: Gameboy May 7 2009, 05:36 AM |
| Question: With Petey Piranha, he had his own species for minions. Like in other bosses in SMS, he had those jellyfish-like creatures [Swoopin' Stu] who came out of the muk. Could we do those? |
| Posted by: CyberkidX May 7 2009, 08:50 AM |
| I call Tatanga. He's the only boss I could find that didn't already have a smaller version. |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 7 2009, 08:56 AM | ||||
Anyways, I may make something for fun, idk. |
| Posted by: Joe Inky May 7 2009, 10:14 AM | ||
| Entering, now that I have 5 top five badges I need to try to get silvers. Also @ SGG: he means like petey had his own minions, but werent mini versions of him, can we do the same for our chosen boss.
IDK though I might be wrong. |
| Posted by: Peardian May 7 2009, 10:57 AM |
| @Gameboy: By closely related, I meant minions that are mini/weaker versions of the boss, like the examples I gave. Other enemies might be the boss's minions, but they're not really related except by affiliation. If I allowed non-related minions... well, that would open up for almost every enemy in all the games, wouldn't it? :P |
| Posted by: Joe Inky May 7 2009, 11:00 AM |
| can we come up with more than one minion aswell? |
| Posted by: Peardian May 7 2009, 11:15 AM |
| Of course. As long as they each meet the requirements, it's fine. |

WIP Shadow Queen minion |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 7 2009, 02:45 PM |
![]() have to fix up a lot of stuff, give him arms, and then animate |
| Posted by: Jazz May 7 2009, 03:04 PM | ||
no arm movement ;_; |
| Posted by: Fez May 7 2009, 03:31 PM |
| This post made no sense! |
| Posted by: Peardian May 7 2009, 04:21 PM |
| It's very well done, but, er, Tubba Blubba is a bossified Clubba/Gabon, sorry. He and Macho Grubba don't qualify. :( |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 7 2009, 04:22 PM |
| alright I'll make a new one but continue with this anyway. |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 7 2009, 04:48 PM | ||
is dat sum pokemon very nice aside from his legs, I'd consider him more like a baby version of tubba(ala Yoshi's Island). |
| Posted by: bEEtle May 7 2009, 04:54 PM |
| Congrats Peardian you deserved the 1st man! This sounds fun. I may give it a shot. |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 7 2009, 04:56 PM | ||
legs were temporary so he wasn't floating. lul |
| Posted by: Joe Inky May 7 2009, 05:07 PM |
wippage![]() Done in QoaM style (just a game I'm making) It's cortez's minions, im going to do one for each of his weapons. Plus, I'm killing two birds with one stone because i can use these in my game aswell. |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 7 2009, 05:07 PM | ||
well like i want more in that style also heres what i have ![]() in case you cant tell by the colors and such, its a hooktail minion, if anyone can present a good name for him/her then I'll use it. |
| Posted by: Luigis #1 May 7 2009, 05:29 PM |
| it was hard to come up with one but I think I have one. would I be able to sprite minons for Popple? |
| Posted by: Fez May 7 2009, 05:29 PM |
| Darn, I can't think of anything good for this... I hope I can enter, but I may not be able to... |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 7 2009, 05:30 PM | ||
hes so tiny to being with though |
| Posted by: Luigis #1 May 7 2009, 05:30 PM |
| I may be able to get it to work. |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 7 2009, 05:35 PM | ||
Actually, he has lots of possibilities. A minion doesn't always have to literaly be smaller. Think about it, Popples "rookie" was bowser who was huge compaired to him, and many main badguys have those huge brainless muscle minions. |

| Mini-Sal WIP |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 7 2009, 06:52 PM | ||
True, and in a sense the tubba bubba heart used the tubba bubba body as a minion, though he controled it. |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 7 2009, 06:55 PM | ||
Yeah, but in the same sense, Blubba and his heart are part of a whole. |
| Posted by: Fez May 7 2009, 06:57 PM |
| Pear, can I include a the boss I'm basing my minions off of? It would break the size limit, and I would be making it, to be used a comparison. It wouldn't count for my entry though... |
| Posted by: Peardian May 7 2009, 11:25 PM |
| Oh, yes, I forgot to mention that. Including a sprite (even just one) of the original boss is perfectly acceptible, and the main boss doesn't have to follow the size/color restrictions (though you still shouldn't go overboard with the boss's palette). |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 8 2009, 07:05 AM | ||
this is what makes the competition hard |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous May 8 2009, 09:30 AM |
| Um...was tolstar a clubba? |
| Posted by: Peardian May 8 2009, 09:46 AM | ||
Hmm... never thought about it, actually... But looking at him now, yes, you're right, he is an obese mutated Gabon/Clubba. I can't believe I've never noticed it before. He even throws spike balls. |
| Posted by: WiWa May 8 2009, 03:00 PM |
Is it oke if i enter too? I already made something, hope you guys like it |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 8 2009, 04:26 PM |
| That's nice, I was going to do chuck before I did tubba. |

| Posted by: Buggo May 8 2009, 04:53 PM |
| Going with tres. WIP |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 8 2009, 05:05 PM |
| Question: Can i do a brawl boss? |
| Posted by: Peardian May 8 2009, 05:10 PM |
| Considering the main site doesn't allow sprites of enemies exclusive to Brawl, I'm going to say no, they don't count either. As interesting as they are, they're not true Mario characters. Sorry. :( (Yes, Petey Piranha is Mario boss, but he doesn't count anyway.) |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 8 2009, 05:19 PM |
| Alright then. Will Megaleg from smg be acceptable? |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous May 8 2009, 05:28 PM | ||
Alright. Could I do Mrs. thwomp then? I mean I know she's a thwomp but I feel like female (or round) thwomps would attack differently. |
| Posted by: Peardian May 8 2009, 05:37 PM |
| @Omega: Yeah, Megaleg is fine. @Omnomlicious: Yes, I realize this, but she is still a Thwomp. Nothing stopping you from making something like it on your own, though. It's a good idea. :) |
| Posted by: Omnomlicous May 8 2009, 05:40 PM | ||
Ok, well there goes my two top entry ideas. |
| Posted by: Bacteriophage May 8 2009, 05:55 PM |
| Question: Is Reznor a boss'd Dino Rhino, or his own entity? |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 8 2009, 05:57 PM | ||
I'd say his own. They look alike but they've never shown any connection as far as I'm aware. |
| Posted by: CeeY May 8 2009, 06:10 PM | ||
Great job so far Wiwa! |
| Posted by: Buggo May 8 2009, 06:25 PM | ||
his own, I'd love to see a midget Reznor. |

![]() wip mini axems |
| Posted by: Black Boo May 8 2009, 08:50 PM |
| You've already got Machine Mades Pip. |
| Posted by: Pip May 8 2009, 10:09 PM | ||
but those aren't axem ranger minions they're Smithy's minions |
| Posted by: Peardian May 8 2009, 10:11 PM |
| Machine Mades are just mass produced copies of the bosses. Pip's entry is fine. Edit: Also, Mini-bosses do count within reason since the category can get rather fuzzy. You can't choose something like "a very strong enemy". |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 9 2009, 12:57 AM |
![]() I don't know. THe big head thing was going to be a large muscle bound, braindead ding nut, but I haven't finished/might not. The smaller one is the goomba of the group, but you have to be careful, jumping on his pointy head might not be a good idea. |
| Posted by: Joe Inky May 9 2009, 07:49 AM |
Going to my second idea because the old one sucked. |
| Posted by: Buggo May 9 2009, 10:15 AM |
| Done, I think it fits the style nicely. |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 9 2009, 02:30 PM | ||
I salute you for doing gameboy style |
| Posted by: Joe Inky May 9 2009, 04:09 PM |
Update![]() Hey SGG: which boss is that minion from? |
| Posted by: OmegaK May 9 2009, 04:54 PM |
| final boss from wario world, I believe joe. |

I. Am. Hurt. ;-; |

| Posted by: Funky May 9 2009, 06:59 PM | ||
Uhm, too big, isn't it? |
| Posted by: mirror May 9 2009, 07:36 PM |
Here's a WIP of my entry, they're Countdown's minions in SMRPG style!![]() (Countdown's from SMRPG). |
| Posted by: Buggo May 9 2009, 08:15 PM | ||
Thanks, glad I'm getting better! |
| Posted by: Glukom May 9 2009, 10:52 PM |
![]() Ugh. I've gotten a lot worse. |
| Posted by: Jlhgomez May 9 2009, 11:04 PM | ||
I think they're Black Jewel's (from Wario World) Also, good entries so far guys! |
| Posted by: CaptainSyrup May 9 2009, 11:12 PM |
| Now what do ya think? |
| Posted by: Thingy May 10 2009, 03:45 AM | ||
A bit too big. The same height as normal birdo, but double the width. |
| Posted by: WiWa May 10 2009, 07:29 AM |
![]() The Chuckolinies are done, next up: Bleck's Buddies |
| Posted by: Redux May 10 2009, 07:30 AM |
| I wanna enter but no idea what boss to do... maybe i'll have to look up a few. There really needs to be a list =P |
| Posted by: jdaster64 May 10 2009, 08:18 AM |
| Finally we can see lesser-praised bosses like Chuckolator get some action! Great idea, Pear! |
| Posted by: Fez May 10 2009, 09:49 AM | ||
I'm not too sure where you're going with this, we're supposed to sprite minions. Isn't this just a birdo? |
| Posted by: Buggo May 10 2009, 10:24 AM | ||
SMB2 |
| Posted by: Fez May 10 2009, 10:27 AM |
| No, I know what game it's from, just... It isn't really a new minion. |
| Posted by: bEEtle May 10 2009, 12:02 PM |
| I have no idea what to do but I want to do something! gah! is anyone doing a tatanga minion? or... yeah, i have no ideas... |
| Posted by: Buggo May 10 2009, 12:03 PM | ||
Witch from SML2. Spoiled Rotten from WL4. |
| Posted by: bEEtle May 10 2009, 12:34 PM |
| meh... I'm thinking of alot of bosses I just can't think of a minion idea... oooo I think I got one! it's not great but it's something! Also, if you do 2 entries only one counts right? |
| Posted by: Fez May 10 2009, 12:58 PM | ||
I'm already excited for your entry. And you can make as many minions of different bosses as you want, they all count, so long as they all meet the rules/requirements. |
| Posted by: bEEtle May 10 2009, 01:20 PM |
| ha ha ha don't be excited its not going to be anything amazing. |

| Posted by: CaptainSyrup May 10 2009, 03:44 PM | ||
You're right. I have to come up with something else... @ Buggo: I think Spoiled Rotten already has minions, and you can't use Wario games anyway. I've got an idea. Is Wart ok? As an Idea? |
| Posted by: NorskSengir May 10 2009, 04:03 PM |
A Bullet Bunt? |
| Posted by: bEEtle May 10 2009, 04:18 PM |
| a bullet bunt? heh heh. i don't get it. yo joe. keep it up, looks fantastic. I don't think I'm gunna enter. I was gunna make robirdo minions, little robotic birdo-like turrets that would move up and down or back and forth on chains while shooting eggs but I dunno my hearts not into spriting right no although looking and mr. ink's sheets makes me want to sprite. |
| Posted by: Fuzzy May 10 2009, 04:25 PM | ||

Mini Cloud N. Candy![]() Ugly animations? Yes Please! Edit, I added a windup and jump pose, as for shyguy grey's comment, sorry but I couldn't think of anyway to edit him and make him look individual in time. |
| Posted by: Funky May 14 2009, 07:43 AM | ||
These are probaply the best sprites ever <3 Cloud N. Candy. Gjm8. |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 14 2009, 08:12 AM | ||
I like it and all, but it seems a bit odd since CnC becomes that size anyways. Maybe make it a slightly different color or something to make it look more like a seperate person. |
| Posted by: Thingy May 14 2009, 08:28 AM | ||
Who are these minions of? |
| Posted by: Shyguy Grey May 14 2009, 08:33 AM | ||
Either that vake boss (bundt, bunt? I forget how to spell it) from SMRPG. That or those two chefs. |

![]() final entry i guess |
| Posted by: Alex May 15 2009, 11:20 AM |
| Shadow Princess Note: Put the "statue" and "turning from/to stone" sprites upon the "tree pedestal", or whatever it's called. After it has transformed from stone to normal, it walks around. However, when you look at it, it turns back into a stone, similar to how boos work. You can only kill them when looking away from it, and making a projectile bounce against a wall, and then hit the Shadow princess. For dying animation, use the "explosion" (which destroys the body), and make the head fall down to the ground. |
