Okay... This shop is basically a place where you can ask me to make and put backgrounds on your FE mugs.
Ask for a Dragon 1, Trees, Sword or Dragon 2 Box (below)

http://img186.exs.cx/img186/5835/usefullilfebox8zn.png

Then tell me which kinda Background you want, like below....
Or I'll be happy just to put it on a normal Blue one.

There you go Icy... http://img105.exs.cx/img105/8013/icy9jk.gif
Now I am working on a background for Wiflewood.

[Lightning Star]

Thank you! I like the background, keep it blue! thanks again

[TheDogWho]

Cheers.
I need a description from Wiflewood of what his background is going to be like.

[Elliott]

Nice Background, what program are you using?

[Mallick]

He uses Paintshop Pro, I just thought I'd tell you, as he's not on right now.

[TheDogWho]

I also now do recolorings like this one of Heath for Wiflewood.

http://img55.exs.cx/img55/6614/fewifle2xw.png

[Wiflewood]

Thanks TDW

great pic

[TheDogWho]

Tom, try and make your posts more than 5 words. According to the rules that post (^) is spam and spam is bad.

Anyone else for a FE mug?
I now accept requests.

[Isaac13]

TDW(Thedogwho) here's mine I want you to do. With the mountains background.

[TheDogWho]

http://img165.exs.cx/img165/4185/mountroy7tk.gif

There you go Isaac13. It kinda helps if you don't send me the mugs as that one was cropped too small.

[Mallick]

I suggest you practise a littl eon making mugs before you add them to your shop, as the recolor isn't that good for a recolor, and recolors aren't that good.

[TheDogWho]

It was my first attempt so and it's not really that bad for a first attempt.

[TheDogWho]

I'm working on a sprite turning Erk (FE) into Jenna (GS).


Erk originally:

Erk with Jenna-ish hair:
http://img64.exs.cx/img64/9356/erktojenna7ze.png
Will finish hair and do clothes soon.

[Isaac13]

Thanks, TDW!!!! It's great. Nice job!

[TheDogWho]

Noty a major update from last time, but it's finished.

Jenna made from Erk from FE:

[Wiflewood]

Hi TDW, u think you could do me a frame for this mug?

Dragon 2 please. Kepp the backgrounfd white, or maybe a light grey.

Thanks.http://img15.exs.cx/img15/1630/mugedit14wi.png

They're not sprites.
They're mugs.

Here be Mister Scarface Jackson with new eyes.
http://img240.exs.cx/img240/589/scarfacey3fj.png

[Ivan is my name]

I have looked on other pages with sprites. I was complimentig them anyway!!

[TheDogWho]

Doing an Isaac now based on Matthew.

http://img161.exs.cx/img161/8056/goldeneeyedude4fn.png
I'm going to do the clothes completely different to Matthew's so I just cropped them off.

[TheDogWho]

Isaac now finished. If you think the clothing is sketchy then that's because I'm not too good at drawing and I did it myself.

http://img232.exs.cx/img232/8159/isaac8vq.png

[Mallick]

TheDogWho, mugs are sprites. They're head sprites.

Anyways, if you're working from scratch, you have to shade. You could've used a recolored sivilian's shirt, with Leilens scarf, anyways..


And Matthew isn't a good concept for Isaac, maybe you could use his hair, but his face is a no, same with Erk to Jenna,

[TheDogWho]

Okay. I'll keep that in mind and redo them later.
I can't find any sprites of Leilen or civilians so Isaac will wait.

http://img208.exs.cx/img208/2118/erktojenna3aw.png
Jenna now slightly redone with a more feminine face.

[TheDogWho]

Isaac redone with Leila's Clothes and Young/Normal Roy's face.

http://img215.exs.cx/img215/652/isaac0ii.png

[Ravenblade]

Its good TDW, but wasn't Isaac's hair a little more spikey? I have no idea how difficult it is to do these things though so thats probably not a major criticism. Its very good though and i can see the likeness.

[TheDogWho]

I could find any more spiky hair than Matthew's and it's hard to alter hair as it's hard to shade and make it look right.

[TheDogWho]

A mug of my RP character, the Wood Elf, Arendunn
http://img239.exs.cx/img239/5027/arendunn9cg.png
I will update this though by highlighting the lines on his robe.

Another character for my forums:

[Mallick]

Remember that advertising is not permitted, TheDogWho? :wacko:

Meh, your RP character is a re-color, so it's not that original...it's a good choice on who you recolored, though.

[TheDogWho]

Sorry for the bump but... I got new submissions.
http://img95.exs.cx/img95/9044/zmaster8bb.png
PDM says a link between Jaffar and Guy was 'genius' but whose clothes are they?
Cookies for those with the answer.

[Mallick]

Legault's clothes. Recolor the head band to the same color as the clothes. Also, recolor the neck so that it's the same color as the face. o.o;

[Wiflewood]

Yeh, the skin shading around the collar looks a little didgy, but otherwise thats a great mug! Not sure why it has green round it...

[Venus_Man1]

Dude, you're quite a man at this. The Legault clothes thingy was an easy one. ;) I want to see more!

[TheDogWho]

I'm thinking of doing some random girl with some complicated hair. I hate doing hair, but it'll be a challenge.

[TheDogWho]

A mug based on Serra, again for my forums and for Love_Guardian_Yuki.
http://img132.echo.cx/img132/4733/yuki9ma.png

[Mallick]

No offense, but I don't like it. Too pink. Use another color. Not to mention the skin colors don't match.

If you changed both of those, it'd be good. =)

[l3lueMage]

you guyz are so good at drawing Sprites...Especially in paint...I didnt know paint could do such things, btw I heard with Windows Longhorn Paint 2 will be released ;)

[TheDogWho]

Piers diamondberg master, on Apr 11 2005, 12:46 AM, said:

Too pink.

It was a request, from Yuki and so you can guess it would have to be pink.

Something that's in the pipeline now. I'm not sure whether to keep going with the hair or whether I should stop.
http://img75.echo.cx/img75/7308/idoun28bi.png
BTW, it's very rough and I will neaten it up quite a bit. Smooth out the oddness between different parts from different people and stuff.

[Mallick]

If I were you, I'd make it look less like Idoun. It's just her with different length hair, and the hair is all messed up. Oh, and you recolored her blue eye. (Yes "eye", just one was blue, for those of you who haven't beaten FE6.)


The only thing different besides color, is you put Fiora's bangs on.

[TheDogWho]

There's more than that in this mug than just Fiora and Idoun.

[Mallick]

Meh, there's still way too much Idoun and way too much hair.

[Nobody]

bit too much pink (I'm not surprised that's for Yuki), and just a comment, but were the clothes on her meant to look a bit like Ursula's (except for the color)?

Mmmmm, I like that one. Pink is great. Good work.

[TheDogWho]

Random mug finished.
http://img184.echo.cx/img184/3149/idoun3we.png
Bonus points for those who can:
A. Name who's fringe I used.
B. Name who's clothes I edited and used.

[Ravenblade]

I dont know FE well enough to be able to answer those questions that but the mug is cool! I like it a lot, she seems well suited to the fringe wherever its from^^

Good work!

[Mallick]

Here are some things that are wrong with it:
1) THE HAIR COLOR DOESN'T MATCH! ARE YOU BLIND?!
2) Too much hair.
3) The hair goes over the ear, why do you have a random ear sticking out?
4) Shading on the shirt is off.

[Ravenblade]

Thats all in your opinion though PDM, i dont think i would agree with a few of those points. The ear sticking out seems perfectly normal to me. Perhaps the fringe has a bit too much edge on it but its not drastic. The colour scheme is really down to opinion anyways and the final point is just picky since i had to look quite hard at it =/

[Mallick]

Ask anyone who does alot of spriting. Here, I'll ask some people on AIM.

yesno982004: the amount of hair is fine, but the shading is weird. Too much in one place, not enought in the rest. The ear4 is alright, but I'd shade around it as well. Shading on teh left side (her POV) of the face should be more

[Mallick]

I was just being straight-forward. If people think my stuff is crap, they can feel free to tell me, I don't care. I don't cry if people don't think my work is really good.

And, no, it couldn't be Fir's clothes...

[Ravenblade]

Listen my friend, its art, therefore its opinion based, therefore you lose.

Sorry^^

Good work TDW, lets leave it at that.

Well, the majority of the people who do alot of that style of art all say that they agree. Therefore, you lose.

[Ravenblade]

My opinion is not disproved by them though is it? Being that its perception based. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder ^^

And this is ridiculous, if it means that much to you, you win but i refuse to spam up TDW's thread further.

[Mallick]

It doesn't mean that much to me, I'm just letting you know, a majority of the people who are good spriters agree with me, so I'm obviously not wrong.

....I don't refuse. =)

No need for that huge post IMO. If you think some little nit-picky points are bad, then just say it and I'll try to make it better. Don't go get 6 people to agree with you. IMO, you're slightly flaming me doing that.

My replies to your points:

1) THE HAIR COLOR DOESN'T MATCH! ARE YOU BLIND?! - It's fixed now.
2) Too much hair. - It was an challenge to make crazy hair, thus, there is a lot of hair.
3) The hair goes over the ear, why do you have a random ear sticking out? - It's fixed now.
4) Shading on the shirt is off. - I don't see how it is off.

'Fixed' mug:

http://img170.echo.cx/img170/4125/idoun3nh.png

[Mars Djinni]

Here, try this. I re-did the colouring and rounded off the ear so that it dosen't look as "pointy".

[Mallick]

Well, I was told that only I had that opinion, so I was proving to Brother R that he was wrong.

The ear and shirt still need fixing.

EDIT: MD making it rounded makes it look a little better.

[TheDogWho]

I don't want it rounded. Go away.

For crying out loud PDM, if you read my post i said it was in YOUR opinion, not "you're the only person in the world who has that opinion"

I believe you said "But that's only your opinion," as if I was the only one on earth with that opinion.

Meh, ear looks better rounded.

But, what you're missing is that I want it pointy.
