Description
After spending a whopping 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on the awful background (*cackles*), I'm uploading the early peak at my new attempt at the NESRPG avatars. I think they are pretty instantly recognizable, but we have Samus Aran (Metroid), Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden), Mario (Super Mario Bros.), and Simon Belmont (Castlevania) in one frame of their idle animations. Each of these, and the other heroes, will have plenty of other animations I -might- upload to dA as a sprite sheet once I'm finished with one. And decide on the color scheme. I'm still working on the shading end of things and might even spruce them into looking all 16-bit. Who knows! Anyway, enjoy. I'm intending on more to come. Because I have several more heroes, and 100s of enemies and NPCs to do still. Thanks to my watchers for being patient!Ugh, and now the part I'm dreading to say. -.-
DISCLAIMER: -Poses- from their respective games were used as a basis for their positions, but these are 100% custom sprites. These are not edits. These are not ripoffs. These are mine. If disputed, I will prove it. So investigate before jumping to conclusions.

OMG I knew all of them! *glee*
Brian loves Ryu/Ninja Gaiden.
I think you did an awesome job with all of them. I bet it was hard getting Mario to look right but not like a rip of an actual sprite. The background makes me giggle at the 8-bit grass. Thank you for uploading

I thought about having Mario put up his dukes to draw away from any rip remarks, but I think the recognizable stances add to the nostalgia. Of course I say that and then I have Samus there without her standing arm aim she's had in about all her 2D games.

Happy you enjoy them! Tons more to come. And thanks for stopping by, I feel like I let a lot of my watchers down by not posting many sprites anymore.

The Mario kinda reminds me from his sprite from Mario and Luigi Super Star Saga, but it looks good.
Samus looks Bad Ass.
I have never heard of Ryu, but he looks good.
Simon kinda looks like he is missing shading in a few places but I don't know if that was planned or not
Glad to see you spriting again.

Sharp eye, as Mario's idle stances for most of his 8bit and 16bit appearances were... not exactly action packed, I opted for something a bit more modern. Samus gave me some trouble with her arm cannon, too long and she looked apelike, too short and she looked terribly wrong.
Glad to be back doing it and certainly thanks for the comment!
