RESULTS - Cross-Platform Spiriting/3D Competition! Apr-May

Post by MasqueradeDemure »

The Other Side of the Coin
Image
And we’re back!
Things have been worked out and the next cross-site sprite competition is go! (Here’s hoping I made the thread correctly.)
This time the contest will be centered around the tried, true, and arguably tired trope of the doppelgänger. It’s time to make some character’s evil twins… or good twins? Morally ambiguous twin? Shadow-selves? Feel free to stretch the archetype some if you have an idea that you think can still apply. Also keep in mind that you don’t need to just put your base character in different clothes, in fact feel completely free to vary up their proportions or body type. Break some conventions if you like! You don’t need to limit yourself to cannon ace-attorney character either, if you’d like, if you’d rather make one for one of your OCs (or maybe somebody else’s if they’re cool with it?) go for it, just make sure we know which character you’re basing it off.

As always these competitions are completely for fun, the only thing at stake here is deciding who gets to pick and theme and host the next one. If you do happen to win and you’re not interested or able to host, you can always defer the role to second place.

★RESULTS★
Voting is now concluded! I've summed up the votes and it's time to unveil the winner of the contest!

------------------------------------------

★ENTRY REQUIREMENTS★
  • You are required to create a new sprite, created solely for this competition (or previously unpublished). This can be crafted in any style, be it Trilogy, HD, Investigations or 3D modelled.
    Please do not enter pre-existing characters from video games or other media. These should be your own original characters.
    While not required, a description of your character including name, age and backstory can be submitted in tandem with your sprites.
    At minimum, you must enter at least one static sprite/render but are able to submit a full sprite sheet, animated gifs, or 3D model files. Please upload your entries and link them either here or in the #court-records discord. For 3D modelers, if you plan to submit your 3D model, please also submit a render so viewers can see your character without 3D modelling software.
★HOW TO ENTER★
  • For C-R Members: Post your sprite to this thread.
    For Discord Members: Post your sprite to the #court-records channel over on the discord.
    For AAO Members: Post your sprite to the AAO entry thread.
★ENTRY PERIOD★
  • Entries will be open from the time of this post and close on May 30th, 2021.
    Extensions for users can be granted up to 24 hours to combat timezone differences and issues with uploading.
    Voting will then commence from May 31st to June 14th.
★ENTRANTS★
Spoiler : 1: SuperAj3 :
Image
Name: Kesha Mohni
Doppleganger of Penny Nichols

Word spread out that anyone could sneak into Global Studios, so someone with more sinister motives decided to pose as a certain forgetful stage hand. Through slipping into the studio with relative ease, Kesha was able to steal Dee Vasquez's company card and successfully purchase a complete collection of Steel Samurai trading cards.
Spoiler : 2: AceAttorneyIsMyJam :

What if this guy :larry: Had a smarter parallel self? this man is named: Clarry Mess
Originally from a nightmare phoenix has about the opposites of his normally wacky friends
Spoiler : 3: Starora :
The doctor is in!
Image
Swift with a scalpel and sterilised needle, Dr. de Killer is a reliable professional who isn't afraid of the sight of blood.
Despite his unsettling name (which he assures and concerned patients is just a funny coincidence), the doctor seems to be a mild-mannered and harmless person... Although, there are rumours circulating that a relative of his comes by after hours, frequently seeking stitches for some rather suspicious wounds, which suggests that the family business might not be in the field of medicine, after all...
Spoiler : 4: Jofe :
In a world where justice doesn't exist anymore, a man decided to make justice. HIS justice.
He's The Judge... The man who judge people himself.

Image
Spoiler : 5: Glen Elg :
On "The Steel Samurai" and "The Pink Princess," Will Powers does a lot of his own stunts. But for some of the more intense action scenes, he has a stunt double, like any big action star. Here he is:

Image

Meet Chase Parker, stunt double and all-around tough guy. From fight scenes to parkour sequences, Chase can take some heavy damage. He does let it get to his head a little, and he's a bit jealous that Will gets a lot of the credit. Any lawyer expecting to cross-examine him can expect some excessive boasting, and would do well to stay on Chase's good side.

PREVIOUS COMPS:
Spoiler : ORGINAL RULES :
  • Each month a new topic will be picked (by the previous month's winner).
    To enter, just post your entry here.
    Stick to the theme! (This one's obvious), but make sure you enter something relevant to the theme picked.
    ONE entry per person. You can submit one character/sprite design and it can be as little as a single frame, or as large as a full set! Up to you
    NO USING OTHER FAN SPRITES. Even with permission, we want to see your own creative works. Editing official sprites is OK though.
    Be creative! Simple recolors are not allowed. At least 2 character sprites edited together with a unique color palette counts as an original sprite. Also drawing custom outfits/costumes from scratch for existing sprites is also acceptable.
Example:
Acceptable:
ImageImage
(Custom drawn costume, or a splice of 2 or more official characters, with a unique palette)

Unacceptable:
ImageImage
(Basic recolor of official sprite, or minimal editing of official sprites)
  • Please create an entirely new sprite for the competition. If you made a character you think really suits the theme, then you can still edit that sprite into a new one for the competition.
    Both AA and AAI styled sprites are acceptable, except if the task specifies one or the other.
    You get 2 weeks to vote after submissions close. This way people have time to look at the entries and vote.
    Voting will be done after submissions have closed and, as CR has no polling system, all you need to do is post a comment saying your favorite.
    You can vote for 2 of your favorite choices.
    You are NOT allowed to vote for yourself.
    You can use sprites/characters/poses from any RELEASED Ace Attorney game. Try to follow official Court-Records spoiler rules.
    You can edit your sprite and resubmit it as many times before the cut off date (preferably by editing your original entry post). These can only be minor edits to your existing entry though like fixing some messiness, anatomy, or adding new poses. No brand new characters or 'second-chance' attempts that you've made. Have confidence in the first entry you make!
Spoiler : RULES FOR HOSTS :
  • Make sure you pick a topic that hasn't been done before (Unless it's been over a year since it's been done)
    Make sure you COPY the rules into your posts to notify everyone!
    Name your topic as "CR Spriting Competition! - Insert genre/topic here"
    You have creative freedom with selecting topics, provided the entries are in the AA style of sprites. Ideas like a 2 person team collab, or situations like "Twins" where 2 characters are in the 1 sprite are also allowed as potential topics.
    For clarity's sake, make a quick sprite as an example of what you're expecting from contestants, and post it in the OP)
    YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF COLLECTING VOTES! Unfortunately, CR doesn't have a polling system, and so votes will have to be through individual comments (to prevent people voting multiple times, we will stick to posting alone)
    Once the voting is closed, it is up to you announce the results (1st, 2nd and 3rd place), and the winner.
    You can take as long as you want to start up the next competition thread. If you don't want to be the one running it, you can let 2nd place be in charge.
    You CANNOT enter if you are hosting, but you can vote.
    If 2-4 entries receive equal votes, announce those who tied, and hold a tie breaker voting between those. If 5+ and/or every entrant ties, the host can pick the winner.
    If a tie breaker ends with another tie, all those tied win, and they decide the next host amongst themselves.

Less than a month until the sprite competition ends! Having more than one entry by then might be a little important.

Sorry to be bothersome, but I noticed some errors to the sprite which I had uploaded, and the text that I had written to go with it (I was half asleep, clearly). I have edited my previous post to fix these problems, but I just wanted to point out that the main post up top now needs changing to match. Thanks (and apologies for messing it up)!

Very cleverly made tokens, and some fantastic entries, too!
Interesting to see that we each interpreted the theme slightly differently, to fit our chosen characters! Good work, everyone!

It was difficult to choose, but here are my picks:
Spoiler : :
Image
^ The entry which genuinely made me smile for quite some time because of how clever and fun I thought it was!
Image
^ And the one whose backstory works so well that I could really imagine them existing within the canon of the games!
I wish everyone else who participated good luck! I am excited to see the outcome!
