Thread: Gym Leader Sprite Contest

I'd like to take a portfolio of BMGf's collective imaginations, so here's a contest for you arty types:

Make a sprite/collection of sprites (overworld sprites are fine, but if you can add in-battle images of them for clearer detail too, that would be ideal), based on the following Gym Leaders from my fanfic. Feel free to expand upon the details given- I'd love to see how they're interpreted!

Leader- Type- Minor basic details- Name of city/town (for the benefit of Oak)

Rod- Steel- Grey hair; youngish ♂; camo tank top; one of those people who makes themselves look tougher than they are- Shadore Town
Kira- Ice- Blonde; haughty ♀; at least 1 item of blue clothing- Sylvia City
Leo- Fire- Pale hair; ♂; ill-looking right eye OR eyepatch- Medita Town
Moe- Ghost- black hair; ♂; dark clothes; cape- Abandoned City
Raymond- Electric- spiked hair; late-teenage ♂; looks like he might run off at any moment- Litnontil City
Bonny- Dragon- dark hair; excitable, headstrong-looking ♀- Dacra City
Stanley- Ground- light hair; terrified-looking ♂- Austral City
Evan- Water- almost spherical hair (NOT like Miror. B); ♂- Zorestic City
Roxy- Rock- pale complexion; ♀- Topate Town
Alex- Mix of types- black hair; ♂- Realgam City (yes, it is named after the tower in Orre.)

Elite Four
Willow- Psychic- large coat, middle-aged ♀ or ♂
Baselle- Dark- black clothing, young ♀
Erin- Fighting- smaller than average Fighting-type Leader/E4 ♀ or ♂
Norma- Normal- large dress, blonde hair ♀
Lee- Grass- fancy suit, one green article of clothing/hair ♂ (ideally)
Elias- Champion- tuxedo ♂

NEW INFO: There's another Trainer who's poignant to the same degree as the 16 above- he's a strong Fire-type named Marley (♂), who is on the tougher side of halfway between Leo on a good day and Leo on a bad day (just comparing him to Leo because they're both Fire-type Trainers). The reason why I can't specify who he is exactly is...well, it's a bit of a spoiler. However, if Oak wishes to know who he is (if everything is going to go ahead once I post the 'fic), I will message him.

NEW NEW (and slightly off-topic) INFO: I have just discovered Fukiyose Gym stole half of my idea for the Medita Town Gym (which, yes, involves cannons )

Footnote: Those of you with keen eyes may have noticed there are 10 Leaders listed- that is because in the region my fanfic is set, there is a pre-League challenge Gym (which gives a diploma so you can enter Gyms as opposed to a badge) and a bonus Gym (for an extra challenge to Champions).

Count me in!
I'll make my sprite later today :P
Also, is Evan's hair more like Flint's?
EDIT: I still think I'm doing Kira.
Holy crap! That sounds wrong doesn't it?

Hmm, Trainer Sprites aren't really my thing, but I'll take Moe.

Evan's hair is kinda like Flint's but without the arches, so if you cut the bits of Flint's hair that stick out so it's the same level as the rest of his hair, it's kind of like that. At least, that's how I envisage it. EDIT: better way of putting it: like Aaron's, but without the spike (and a different colour, obviously).
I'll leave it open to interpretation. Also, I don't mind if people do more than one, or if more than one person does the same Leader. It'd be nice to see how different people take the description!

I wanna put Moe's Star Pokemon in his sprite. What is it?

Ideally, it'd be a region-exclusive purple/white Fire/Ghost-type Infernape, a.k.a. Eternape (since his backstory is he was Leo's predecessor, but his Monferno 'died', whereupon it evolved into a semi-ghost version of Infernape), but his 'sub-Star' so to speak, is Gengar.

K!



I can't make it transparent because I am not on my desktop. It's basically a Dragon Tamer, recolored with a Gengar.

It's better than anything I could do.

Here it is transparent..

moe

Leo. I got bored and designed a badge as well.

Oh I got a good idea for what I'm gonna make for Kira

Update regarding Leaders' Star mons

Rod: Magnemite
Kira: Frosslass
Leo: Torkoal

Feel free to deviate from these, but these are the semi-official Stars.
