Manly fish, complete with background and added tufts of grass. Also, this gives you a better look at the program that was used to make the pic.

Made with Creature Editor 3.0, a piece of software that was made before the Spore Creature Creator was released, as a 2D mock-up of it.

A drawing I drew of King around the same time I started doing EB art in the first place. It was scanned then coloured digitally.

Making drawings based on some of EB's small sprites can pose an interesting challenge, since some sprites don't have battle images or clay models to reference.

So part of that challenge lies in trying to figure out just what a pixel or two might or might not represent. And another element of dificulty can come from trying to get away from the "short and squat", nearly "superdeformed" kind of style that those sprites were presented in, in typical old-school Nintendo fashion.

A number of the Healer's visual elements were thus "made up" based on such pixel interpretation.
