Well, I'll do something in Falco to make it look right. Like I said, I like him going completely berzerk.

Updating with a quick question for Falcon if he decides to see this: Do I seriously have to make a darker border on all the sprites? If so, can you contact DMX and see if there's an easy way to do it before I embark on a three hour pixel-editing journey?

Well if theres no trick, would that 3 hours be worth it to have him in the game?

It probably would. But then again, that's three hours of staring at a computer monitor going "CLICK. CLICK. CLI-CONTROL-Z. CLICK."

Play good music. It helps to keep you concentrated.

Well, I suppose I have to finish him first. IT'S..... AAAAAAAAAAAAAANCIENT MINISTER TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMEEEEEE!!!!!! EDITING TIME: F-Air is now done. T'will be posted when the others are done as well. EDIT AGAIN: Falling animation's done. I hope two frames are sufficient. EDIT AGAIN AGAIN: Ledge-roll thingy's done. LANDING AND I'M DONE!!!!!!! But then I have to reorganize the entire sprite sheet so everything's in order instead of order of when I finished. EDIT: FINALLY DOOOOOOOONEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Gonna post the entire unorganized spritesheet in a few minutes after I've put everything onto it and then uploaded it, then about fifteen minutes later I'll put up an organized one. An annotated version of the spritesheet might have to wait till later in the week or the weekend. DONE!!! I was thinking of also uploading my development file. Anyone interested in how I made the Minister? EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT: WTF?! It's not showing up. Gimme a bit more time, I'm fixing this.

I would absolutely be interested in how you made him, but that's because I'm an art nut.

K, trying this again: GRAHEOGUEBNUWDHOH! Fine, I'll freaking use Photobucket. Jeez. How much do I want to bet it's gonna resize it? A large sum. AND WHADDAYA KNOW?!?! I win. WTF is going on here?! I'm gonna try my dA next. K, from dA: FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!! So yeah. If it looks like crap for any reason, I'll just email Falcon with the file. Alright, now to PM Phantom with the finished product. EDIT: The deed is done. Hopefully he'll respond soon. And now for the completely organized spritesheet, including everything but the mugshot and taunt:

-squints- Did you add a black border around them? o-o

No, but Falcon didn't seem to mind. When I PMed him he said he was gonna start working on him.
Jiggs has a rather light border as well, so unless he comes back and says I need it, I'm not gonna bother.

I see no border on Ancient Minister, actually... And I think that making the black outlines on the ROBs a different color (such as a dark shade of a color already on the main ROB) would make them match the Minister a bit more, right now they clash a bit too much IMO.

either that or just make a black outline on the minister taking a very long time that you don't actually have. I will say it does feel like he's a brawl character with his darker colors though. I like it!

Well, Phantom replied. He doesn't approve for a few reasons (quite well thought out reasons, and now I see the real reason Crusade is being made), although he did compliment me on the amount of work I put into him. I may get to post the message in its entirety here if he allows me to, but I'm asking him before I do anything hasty.
I would like to mention that Falcon does approve of the idea and said he'd like to start working on him, so there may be a small sliver of hope if he can persuade Phantom.
If it could even be possible, I'd like to see one last opinion from everybody, as it may have a small chance of swaying Phantom in the other direction given enough support.
So, if everyone could post their honest opinion on the idea of the Ancient Minister being in Crusade, I'd be very grateful.

I definitely like it. You've put your heart and soul into these sprites and that is commendable. If Phantom does have problems with the sprites in general and not the character, then I would be willing to help you make changes to the sheet if necessary. I think the move set is well thought out but once again not sure what Phantom had to say on that.
Pros: full sheet, new semi veteran character, chance to use a nuke in smash.
cons: the colors may be too dark where they will especially blend with final destination.
Final vote: yes I like him.

He actually complimented me on the amount of work I did, but didn't actually mention the sprites specifically at all. There were more important reasons; having a full spritesheet is actually pretty low on the list.

Since you suggested the idea of putting the minister in crusade I had always liked it. I know its actually ROB with some clothes but the way you created his moveset and everything makes him have a different style and makes him interesting to have as a playable character. Without mentioning you put your soul and effort on making his sprites. So I also support the minister inclusion in SSBC.

To be honest, I never really did like the idea of the Ancient Minister.
However, I am willing to accept AM because of the work you put in.
