All-time Favorite Sprites

[Sophist]

This has probably been done before, but I was wondering what are your ALL TIME FAVORITE sprites? The artwork on here is incredible-- beyond incredible! But there are always those few sprites that just speak to you and become your faves. What are yours?

Here are some of mine:

[BeeNme]

This is a hard one; there are so many awesome sprites! But I guess my all-time favorite would be the Angora Jackalope. I absolutely love them! I don't have any parentless ones, since I was out of town with no computer available during the event, but through gifts and breeding, I now have over 500.

[VilaWolf]

The fake Plague Beast that was part of a a very old April Fools joke.

[Dancingstar]

Hands down,

-Celestial Butterfly
-Northern/Southern Light Fox.

[Bandita]

Ahh, that's so tough! I have so many but here are some of my top:

Glass Phoenix Literally any Dunkleosteus

Koredanuki Rabbitsune

In no particular order--

Borean Chirrups
Valcerian Dragon
Earth/Frost Unicorns
Solar/Lunar/Northern Light Foxes
Pygmy Phoenixes

amphista eggs the color scheme is just so great, so simple, perfect

[Reima]

I have several
Mostly I just go 'that looks nice' but what is included in the 'looks nice' is most commonly about the color scheme & pose of the sprite, as well as the 'it doesn't look boxed in' (like where you can clearly see the borders of the space they had to use)

So some of my favourite Donis would be

Spoiler

Temple Cat (Simple yet lovely, perfect. Good sit)
Any Alicanto (I just think they're neat)
Amarth Alagos (Looks nice as well, really captures that fieriness)
Razan Lemur (It's so simple yet it really please my eyes)
Onyx Mantis (The colors! So good)
Dark Bone Dragon (I like both Bone Dragons, but I like the colors here a bit more)
Valarn Resurrection Horse (I dunno man, I just really like it. Maybe it's the blue flamey mane that I really like)
Kelp Araxie (Loving it, the colors and the creature itself just looks really nice)
Kaeran (The colorsss and pose, and like, the water stuff, yas.)
Saebra Unicorn (Love the poses and colors of all of them, they're nice)
Akhlut (Probably what got me to be on the site all those years back. The pose and it just looks so goooood)
Tzunun Mouse (Loving the pose and colors, especially that tiny bit of red there, it goes so well with it all and looks so gooood)
Fen Bongo (And the other Bongo too. Simple looking creatures yet I Really love them. The colors are good and you can really see the motion here)
Spectral Wolf (Both kinds. God I love these, the way the fur and floof is drawn is just. Yes. Good job, wonderful work)
Northern Light Fox (Yeah a lot of people like these ones and I'm no excecption)
Painted Misoc (Any Misoc. God. They're so nice. But the painted ones just have that extra wild 'oomph' with their colors. It's bright, it's not exactly natural, but gosh it looks so good even still and gives them a fantasy look just with that alone)
Silendarus Unicorn (The sprites here scream good job and work and talent and all sorts of stuff. I dunno why but I've always just really loved these. They feel a little different in some way but I just really like them)
Atrox Dragon (The pose, the cool dooood, I just. Yes.)

Light Voliton (God one of my absolute Favourites for SURE. The pose and colors are just. So Good.)
Any Lichenthrope (I may be biased but I just really love these fellas. They were released during my birthday month and at first I was like 'huh' but now I'm like so in love with them and I love them to bits)
Heligre (Both kinds, oh shiiiiet they're really really good. I love this style. It looks soft, majestic, so warm. YES.)
Dark Umbral Wolf (And the other one too. I dunno I just really like the way the creatures look, also the colors and pose)
Both Caprichthys (Hello I love everything and anything Borealum makes. The spritework is Gorgeous.)
Anpean Alphyn (I already love the Alphyn a Lot, and you bring me these fantastic critters that look like they're posed like heraldic coat of arms animals? Heck yeeeeeaaaaaaah)
Both Vishyrm (Again. Majestic, the colors are super amazing, the pose, it all just flows so well)

Komainu Crystalwing (Ok baby. Look at the talent here. Look at this skilled work. Look at it. It looks Gorgeous!!!! Pose and colors on point! I'm so glad these fellas got their chance on the Magiversary fame and glory)
Holyhound (I dunno bruh I just love their pose and colors so much. The wood theme ain't a personal favourite but I still love them lots)

But ye, that's a lot.
Some overall favourites probably would have to be these:

[Danafox]

This question for me is too hard because there's so many stream, event, shop and donis that I love.

But there has been one theme that I have enjoyed a lot because it's amusing and and the creatures can be very adorable or cool and those are all the creatures that resemble food in some way.

[Brynmala]

My favourites are:
Ouranian koi
Gryphons - especially the ice and fire variants
Silver alicanto (not so keen on the other colours)
Nikolus
Aurean Globefish
hippocampus
Serendin
Wind hydra
Pumpkin Wyrm
Kamar rabbit

but my absolute favourite of all is the Temple cat - such simple graceful lines capturing such character and perfection.
