Update Log:
01/09/14: New Kurain Master Maya sprite!
01/02/14: Magician Apollo sprite added to History swap section!
01/01/14: New Kurain Master Maya sprite!
12/23/13: Added Percei's sprite to the thread.
12/13/13: Updated Prosecutor Katrina's sprite with the newest version.
----
And to end this showcase, have a Sissel and Kamila from Ghost Trick drawn entirely by hand, no pixels or parts taken from existing Ace Attorney sprites! Height and size were the only things referenced off existing sprites.
I know I have a couple of issues to work on, namely hands and clothing folds. Also, I have yet to try out a full animation yet, so there's that! Anyway, I don't accept requests as I've found that I have a lot of other stuff to do. If you've requested something of me, I probably won't be able to do it, sorry.
----
Tutorial! First, let me start by saying that this is obviously for my method of spriting. It has nothing to do with actual sprite "editing", as I construct sprites from scratch. My tools are Sai and GIMP, but you can easily use Photoshop if you'd like. Whatever you're most comfortable with.
New Sprites!
If you would like to use any of my sprites for anything, please ask me first. I will not accept requests to edit my sprites, sorry.

(Also, if you'd like, I wouldn't mind redlining Sissel's hand for you.)

I've taken to drawing all the sprite lineart using the pen tool instead of pencil/binary, so I guess I anti-alias by hand?
Ok, I'm a dumb and only just understood what you meant by redlining. Go ahead!

Sure thing! I'll create a tutorial using the next Maya sprite I work on. It should be appended to the original post in the next few days.

Oh, I see! That explains a lot. I actually meant old-school style for shading, where every intermediate shade is pixelled one at a time. That's... actually really smart. Wow. Perhaps I should do that too, since there's really no such thing as hardware limitations nowadays... Do you restrict the colour palette when exporting?
Re: redlining, sorry about the confusion. I just thought I'd offer some critique and suggestions because it appeared like you were after some.

Something like these, but with his classic AA1-AA3 look:
Only a suggestion, keep up the good work!

Ah, I see. Yeah, I don't pixel the intermediate shade one at a time. I just use the pen tool to cover that for me. And I don't restrict the colour palette when exporting, though maybe I should try that out... it might stop my sprites from looking too smooth...
Ooooohhhh, thank you!! That's really helpful!!! I might fix his hand over the weekend then... Thanks again! :D
Originally I wasn't going to, but I've since decided to collaborate with someone in working on fancases for Pywright, and Maya aide sprites are required, so yes, I will be doing her bench aide animations! I will also be adding new front facing poses to show her maturity and seriousness as the Kurain Master.
I might have to sprite DD Phoenix anyway, so I can also do classic suited Phoenix while I'm at it! :D But that might come after

Those expressions are exactly how I imagined him to be like. And there's Maya too.
Great job! I

The second Clay sprite has a great expression and looks much better than the first, in my opinion. However, the two don't look like they're part of the same set. It's mostly noticeable in their skin tones - they look like they're different because the context has been changed; the colours in the outline are more saturated in the second compared to the first, so it appears lighter and less gray. Also the chip in his visor doesn't look consistent with the first sprite where it's mostly blended in.
I'm really liking how you've done his mouth movements, though. Ideally the tongue's red would be the same red as the logo and the arm...things (or the same as the blush) but you're working with a lot more colours than a typical sprite would have.
I also left a link to a billion hand guides and references as well, not sure if you saw it.

Edit: Nevermind, I think I figured it out. But it's going to take some work to fix all these sprites...

DON'T WORRY, IT'S OKAY. Breathe, Sky! You're fine!
Convert the sprite to be Indexed. Here's a guide on doing that in GIMP. Hey presto. There shouldn't be too much to lose from Clay's sprite, but Maya's Magatama will end up with some skin-tones...
Also, if you're curious, I took a proper look at the colours for you - it turns out 247 was actually the colours in embarassed Clay's first frame. (His tongue is a veeery slightly different shade of red, as I mentioned earlier.)

Sure! I just ask that you wait until I fix all my sprites to have less colours, unless you would prefer to use the smoother version for your game.

I've seen that you've already fixed the default one, so I'll wait for the rest to be fixed.
