Taking home second place are two brighter anti-characters! Surely this couldn't be a coincidence?

The two gothic entries take third! Now I'm convinced something's going on here.

Hello AAO, and welcome to our eighth Art Competition!

The theme for this comp will be a little different from the last. First of all, take any Ace Attorney character; anyone will do! Now, think of their personality, their quirks, and how the affect their appearance.
After that... Reverse! Take their personality, and make it do a complete 180! This new "anti-character" you've made in your mind will be what you're trying to portray for your entry.

For example, above we have regular ol' Larry Butz. He's lazy, he's a ladies' man, he's a delinquent... he just screams "no sense of responsibility whatsoever."
Now, after his reversal, he's hard-working and diligent. In the example, he's now a businessman with Grey's a snazzy suit and groovy glasses. Heck, he even shaved his goatee!

As you can see, creativity will be very important when creating your entry. The quality of the sprite is also vital, but extra points will go to those with lots of originality. Try to add little things here and there that really show off their reversed personality.

Of course, the usual rules are in place:
  • - Only sprites specially made for this competition may be entered.
    Sorry, but previous works just won't cut it.
    - No GK2 spoiler sprites. This should go without saying.
    - You may submit several entries. As per usual, they will all be judged individually.
    - Include the original character alongside your entry.
    Preferably, the base pose for better comparison.
The deadline will be Friday, March 2, 2012. The date can be changed as seen fit, though.

Good luck, and get started on reversing!

Okay, I'll have to keep an eye on this one.

Hm... Alright, let me think...

How's about Evil Phoenix? I've always wanted to do that one. (And no, I don't mean Tigre.)

I KNEW someone would do Edgey Wright. Probably shouldn't have mentioned it in that PM...

@Shadow: Good luck. Phoenix will be pretty difficult to do, as you can sort of see above :wink:
@gotMLK: Heh, good thing I'm not Phoenix... Good sprite, tho.

This gives me an idea. A fairly obvious idea, mind you, and one many other people probably thought of as well, but an idea nonetheless.

The only reason it says April is because this was going to be April at first.

It's even more creepy to see Manfred as a nice old man, than as a cold and evil genius. :XD:
But I think there is a better way to show the opposite of our Manny.
