If anyone has tried the ancient retro game known as Blaster Master, they might recognize that little vehicle name there. The SOPHIA (Subatomic Omni-directional Probative Hyper-responsive Indomitable Abdicator) is the title vehicle of choice for Jason, the main character in the series who does all the mutant killing.

Anyways, I wanted to create this prototype as an example of my spriting skills because I've always wanted to create a cool looking ATV of sorts that could fit a theme, and I figured Blaster Master would be perfect. Everything in the vehicle except the concept, the little Jason sprite, and at most that greyish bag just behind the canopy on the rear of the craft in between canopy and engine; are all me. Concept, Jason, and SOPHIA are all copyright SUNSOFT. Bag is Copyright Capcom because I stole it off of the rear of one of the motorcycles and modified it from Megaman ZX.

So, all that aside... this was completely made in MSPaint using the close up zoom tool, a selection of common base colors, and the pencil tool for each single painstakingly placed pixel in the whole thing. Other than the bag and Jason Sprite, nothing was copy pasted from another sprite source. Open in Paint and zoom in on it to appreciate the detail. Thankfully, PNG retains the individual pixels without blurring similarly to the original BMP format, so nothing is lost. :3

Oh, and if this is too "Copyright Material" for FA standards, then any Admins who wish me to remove it need simply ask.
