Description After challenging myself, I have made my first vehicle sprite

So, to give you all a little history lesson so there is no confusion, the sprite I made is the body probe vehicle from an attraction at Epcot at Disney World that no longer operates called Body Wars

I do apologize in advance if the look into history of the sprite's inspiration makes you a little uncomfortable. Again, I strongly apologize

Anyway, the ride was a simulator ride that was like Star Tours but it took you on a journey through the human body (yeah, doesn't sound exciting like Star Tours...)

The ride opened in 1989 and closed in 2007 and all major components of the ride's mechanics and parts were removed

Two reasons why I made this: One, the vehicle's design is pretty damn cool. Two: This is my way of paying tribute to the ride even though I never rode it (which I'm glad I didn't because...not a big fan of nasty imagery)

I tried my hardest to be as accurate as possible with the sprite with limited resources but I think I'm happy with the end result here

From top to bottom in alphabetical order:

Bravo 229
Charlie 218
Foxtrot 817 (never was listed at all in the ride's probe vehicle status list)
Sierra 657
Zulu 174

(God, love it when they use the phonetic alphabet for code names)

So, hope you guys like this

Body Wars and Epcot belongs to the Disney Company

Oh, yeah. I remember going on that ride.

My family and I threw up after coming of it.

Wait, you went on Body Wars?

When was this?

I think it was in 1997, during the resort's 25 anniversary celebration.

My mom hated the ride so much, we never went on it again. I thought it was okay, though. It had a neat story of this facility that shrinks volunteers to help battle diseases in the human body.

I never rode it which I'm glad I didn't

I can't handle seeing stuff like that

Star Tours is much more fun and exciting

Yeah, I can understand that.

Sadly, I never rode Star Tours. But, if there's one simulator ride that I REALLY like, it's Universal Studios' Simpsons Ride. ^^
