Just some stuff I made in my spare time… which I have a lot of actually…

This drawing is of a character I made about a year ago, called "SweetDreams."

I tried to draw Crazy Hand from Super Smash Bros. using his "Drop bombs" move.

Not bad.
What strikes me as odd is why that monstrosity is named 'SweetDreams'.

Here's bit of a tip, when you draw them in Paint, or color them, try saving them in .PNG, instead of .JPEG, as you'll get the colors to be wrong/darker, and will have pixels all over the place, making it look horrible.

To be honest, when they were done, I just saved them as the default format and uploading them to photobucket changed the format to .JPEG.

I saved them as .BMP (The default for MSPaint) and PB changes those to .JPEG.

When I make sprites, I have them in .PNG format, and PB, host .PNG formate images.

The only one that looks bad BECAUSE of the JPEG format is the drawing of Zakheudol, but thats not so bad.

@Mr. TTT: Theres actually a long story behind the name "SweetDreams" (no space, capital S and capital D is the ONLY correct spelling), if you want to know, I'll post it, but not at the moment.

Okay, that'd be cool.
I like long stories.

I'll just post a previousley written biography-type thing that I used for the description on Deviantart… It'll save me time…

"His composition is blood (It came to me when someone at school hit me in the head with a metal star and I bled onto the metal shop floor) the thick black lines in him are like bones, and the smaller ones are more for decoration. He has a mouth, but being composed of a liquid, his lips merge when hes not using his mouth making it invisible. His species is called a "Hemosapien" (a play on "homosapien" and "Hemoglobin")

He himself is a thought brought into reality. He was imagined by a Tap (water sprite) named Malia (my girlfriends character) and became a tangible being due to strong wishfull thinking on her part. He knows the difference between right and wrong, but he doesnt care about it at all, he wont hesitate to off anyone who gets in his way. His most noteable ability is to become a pure thought once again and enter someones mind, learning everything about them and using it against them (for example, he can force someones mind to send them through their worst fear, causing insanity). The only way he can physically die is if the one who created him forgets about him completely, or die themselves. He was created with a set ammount of personality and intelligence, but he can learn and advance on his own with no help from his creator (in fact, once hes created, he cant be changed by the creator.) He can also manipulate the shape of his arm tentacles to create weapons. He usually hangs on to a purple rose that is bloodstained.

His name was inspired by a song with the same name (originally sung by an artist that I cant remember, but I was listening to a re-interpretation sung by Marilyn Manson, one of my favorite artists) , but it also matched his nature, so I didnt question it. (I also thought that "SweetDreams" sounds kinda sinister and twisted when interpreted in a certain way and used for someone like him) I drew the picture, but my markers and my scanner distorted it ALOT so I had my girlfriend photoshop the details back in for me, cuz I dont have that program or anything similarly related.
