COME ONE! COME ALL! VISIT MY SPRITE THREAD PAGE!

Since you're mouse is hovering, you might as well come in! Come on, you know you want to!

(That was all there just to attract people in when they hover over my thread name ^_^)

So, I have been on a long leave of absence. I have nearly obtained my Associates in Science and I will soon be pursuing an internship with the amazing Wildlife Center that I have been volunteering at the past year. I am nearly complete with my journey to the beginning of my new career. Still, I have a deep profound love of Spriting! I wish to share it with you guys! ^^ Just please remember to be aware of the dates when responding to stuff, as this thread is one of the oldest in the entire Pixel Art section of PokeCommunity! I just want to say thanks, and I'm excited to be back!
Something new, i put everything in spoilers by categories so it's easier to look through (I'm a total organization freak!). If i post anything new, there will be a http://h.imagehost.org/0629/iaza_fin.gif under the heading. I'll also highlight or color the font of the new items internally. Hope it makes it easier! Enjoy!

Another note, always check my last post... i sometimes don't update this one right away... my last post, more often than not, has updated content...

Last Sprites before my leave of absense
Spoiler:


So, After a VERY LONG hiatus, I have returned with a new sprite! well, an old concept, but a new piece! It's
Humsaw
Hummingbird Pokemon
(Flying/Steel)
http://i56.*.com/35k8i8w.png

A new idea i'm gonna be entertaining here... a cockatiel/native american flying/ground type pokemon...I will eventually be making a battle sprite...
http://i.imagehost.org/0457/Cheerokeet.png

I revised the body portion at the far right...

Edit 1 => Edit 2

http://i.imagehost.org/0710/Geisheon_tail_comparrison.png
---
My first EVER photoshop sprite... it's a partially traceover...partially scratched version of a prexisting lineart commonly floating around... but i extended the body segments where they meet, made the scales more "pointy", scratched the face, crest and tail... and modified the line art in general all over the place ^^ Also, a custom pallette...

Lance Layer

Spoiler:

http://c.imagehost.org/0469/Lance_Layer_Sprite.png SUSPENDED
This is my RP character. I like how Volkner's body is angled, so I took form from that. I included a shortened jacket, with a simple style, and put in a custom guitar. Then i went to work on the face and head. The face ended up looking a lot like Volkner's, but the hair is pretty cool in my oppionion. Took about an hour and a half to complete. Has a custom pallette: here's a much better hairline:
http://f.imagehost.org/0335/Lance_Layer_Sprite_6.png FINAL VERSION
He's supposed to have black pants, but that wouldn't look to good, so i toned it down to a dark grey. The Navy jacket is a significant part of his story so that doesn't get changed either. As for the guitar, it is based off of the guitarist guitar, but reshaped and colored to have a nice wood look to it. This edit added the silver striping, and has (im my oppinion) better shading!

http://f.imagehost.org/0446/Jammin_1.png(original)http://g.imagehost.org/0736/lance_layer_sprite_8.png(edit by me)http://www.iaza.com/work/090411C/Jammin_1_t9493058338-iaza.gif(awesome animation!) SUSPENDED

SCRATCHED!!! This is (apart from the guitar, and the, like twenty pixels, of volkner's face shape) ENTIRELY SCRATCHED! I scratched the legs, top, hands, neck, rock... yeah...wowzer! So to all the cynics out there, HA! I made my own scratched trainer sprite, now leave me alone!!! BTW, it is still the same pallette, except for a new facial color tone, apposed to the light wood color.

http://c.imagehost.org/0265/Lance_Overworlds.pnghttp://www.iaza.com/work/090411C/Anim_14092740712-iaza.gifhttp://www.iaza.com/work/090411C/Ani_Part_13761785267-iaza.gif

YAY! It Lance Layer Overworlds! These took a lot of time to make! (you have all seen the sprite so im no going into that) The body, is based, not copied and pasted, off Volkners, but it created the jacket without all the yellowish blingy stuff. The head is CUSTOM done and it took like an hour to get it right for just the regular front facing.
The color palette is the exact same as the sprite's. The guitar on the second set, took at least two hours to make it look how i wanted it to, and it still isnt exactly right! Again, same color pallette, but actually drawing the guitar mini style was HARD!!!

http://c.imagehost.org/0740/Milodos.png(my original)
This is my first presentable scratch. Took around two hours to get it to the form it's in now. I know the outlining is a bit thick, and the shading is a bit weird, but i wanted it to look "scaly".

http://b.imagehost.org/0289/Scorchant.png

Fusions

Spoiler:

These are all more or less just for fun... nothing too serious here...

http://c.imagehost.org/0679/Slowqueen.png
Slowqueen (Vain Pokemon)
Water/Psychic

The King's Rock held by Slowpoke also attracts Clamperl. If a
Clamperl latches itself onto the Slowpoke, the result is a very
vain pokemon, carring greatly about it's looks and appearance.

http://c.imagehost.org/0917/Pegaflame.png
Pegaflame (Pegasus Pokemon)
Fire/Flying

Ancient writings tell of Ponyta that did not want to be
bound to the land. They evolved wings and flew off,
never to be seen again. It is unknown if any currently exist.

Yes... I know that this is a HUGE cliche. But it still looks pretty cool!

Eggs
Spoiler:


Starts with the "Default Egg" from R/S and goes in pokedex order from there. #2 would be a bulbasaur egg, #3 would be a charmander egg...etc. I finished through 151 (Mew). Notice! Evolved forms do not have eggs, since they're evolved. Mewtwo also does not for obvious reasons.

http://c.imagehost.org/0585/Poke_Eggs_FIN.png
I make them from a custom template i designed. They all have pallettes based off their diamond/pearl sprite. Some in my oppinion are awesome, while others are not so good or simply don't make any sence.

Cody enjoys following his family members around the house
when he is not perched on their shoulders or engrossing his
self in his food dish. At four months old, he is already starting
to say his own name and make kissy-kissy noises.

Cody is an overfed, and overloved cockatiel that never lacks
for anything. His favorite food is McDonalds french fries, and
he loves to watch the fish in the aquarium. Cody uses an arsenal
of words including: come here cody, me, and his newest, NO!

lol. an egg with a popping vein. i presume mankey? XD' *cba to work it all out T_T* thats genius... <3
i especially like the detail that went into tangelas. very sleek.
sandshrew egg<3 omg yey. the simplicity in growlith and poliwaghs are ncie because they also have some nifty deatils that make them obvious as to what poekmon they belong to<3!
drowzee is another good one... as is staryus.
um. eggzecute XD' doesnt that defeat the object? XD FAAACE. why not give the voltorb one a face? or whatever. (wow this sint making much sense :s i hope you understand)
althoguht i DO liek teh eggs,,, the shading irks me. they dont look egg shaped to me. i knwo the defualt one (if you like) is shaded that way... but... its disgusting. tbh. well. my opinion XD' *dont think ive ever said anythign THAT opinionated before....*

Cx omg. mildos. needs. a. mouth. but yeah. its quite a nice fusion. you can tell you worked hard on that one. i know you wnated a 'scaly' lok.. but i think theres a tad too much dithering... that or its too uniform. id try to break it up or reduce it a bit... otehr than that, top work x3 <3!

and um. the trainer sprite, of course... (ahh RP charas.... *had one for three years whos still alive today<3<3<3*) its an awesome guitar :D! did you scratch that? *pretty sure you said it was custom.. but yeah... just to make sure* a little niggle is how deatiled the guitar is... and how light it is... compared ot the rest of the sprite... i think you either need to add more blakc to the guitar and deepen the colours or brighten the colours on the guy and make his outline lighter.
and he needs another arm to play guitar, right? it looks off-balamse w/o two arms. even if you say ones hidden. *reccomends splicing off another trainer sprite if you can/want*

the hair IS very cool. buuut the hairline? not so much. its far too square. hairlines nip in at the edges. go see for yourself. down by your temples? seeee? your sprites is a box XD''' um make it more rounded if you can. :3
good luck~ very nice stuff so far, hope to see more from you~ :3 (oh and i understand if you dont edit anythign after what i said, but it can be atleast for future reference, ne?)
laters, Maz~
(by the by, working your 'buns' off make me lol.... XD'''''')

Samson July 22nd, 2008 3:15 AM

well done there on the trainer sprite. your color choice is very good, but you need to work on preserving the palette with brighter colors and more importantly, your outlining. get used to those two, especially anti-aliasing, and you'll be making some real nice stuff.

Listle6 August 7th, 2008 11:05 AM

Nice. I like the voltorb world the most <(^.^)>

<~F.M.P~> August 8th, 2008 9:55 PM

Today is September 11th, 2008. On this day, seven years ago, our country was put in distraught by the actions of terrorism. We will never forget that day, nor ever want to relive it. Many want to erase it, go back in time and stop it from happening. Nevertheless, 9/11 is a day that must live on. Although the Wolrd Trade Center Towers fell, are unity as a country rose, heros were embalmed, and remembered, the world took a change... for the better. Seven years later, we stand on free soil, taking for granted the liberties and freedoms that others have worked so hard for us to have. If there was ever a time to bow your head in humility and humbleness, to honor the heros alive and fallen, today is that time. Today is that day. We, as a nation, will continue to persevere, as we have been doing, and know that we are the luckiest people in the world.

Thankyou, and GOD BLESS THE USA!

Those eggs are awsome! P.S Where did you get the egg spirite from?

= GPR = September 18th, 2008 1:43 PM

All the eggs are custom done by me. I did not "get" the eggs from anywhere. I do use the fr/lg color palletes of the pokemon on the eggs though. But thanks for the feed back anyhow.

Oh, something new if yall didnt notice, my AWESOME 4 frame animation! It took me like four hours to make it! I LOVE IT!!! So perdy! I got another one i made as well. I'll put it up when i feel like it... i like the gyarados one better for now!

OK! I finished redoing everything! Notice! FMP did not double post! I just deleted my posts that were in between! Also, this thread is not revived in anyway. Angain, many of my posts were deleted and combined into one big one. Sorry for any inconviences.

The head thing looks a little akward, I guess because of the black inside it.
http://c.imagehost.org/0917/Pegaflame.png
I like it. The wings really fit. I think they're from Moltres, right?

I say, they look pretty good overall. :D

= GPR = September 20th, 2008 1:58 PM

yep they're moltres wings, and the head is custom redone, it was goofy looking the way it was.

As for slowqueen, that's a clamperl shell around it's head. It does look a bit screwy though...

Thanks for the tips and feed back! I APPRECIATE IT GREATLY!!!

Remember everyone! Keep Spriting!

the bitter end. September 21st, 2008 4:19 PM

Humsaw looks too flat, and it also needs another pose, love the rest of them though...

= GPR = September 23rd, 2008 4:11 PM

Humsaw is without a doubt the hardest one to shade. It is definetely the most inconsistant shading i have done with my carbon sprites. I is just in general a really hard pokemon to sprite, considering the beak and all.

If you think you can do it better, pm me your attempt... sprite away!

youre a gyarados fan if i am right? :P

Glitter Stain October 3rd, 2008 2:49 AM

The eggs' shading isn't good. I doubt seriously that anyone is standing to the left of your MSPaint and shining a large light on them. Make light come from the northwest corner of the sprite.

= GPR = October 3rd, 2008 9:04 PM

to be entirely honest, those were the very first sprites that i ever did. i know that they werent good, back then i thought they were the coolest though. anyways, i just like them for the laughs and the designs i incorporated into them, even if they are not the most sprite correct format.

Thanks for the feed back everyone! Keep Spriting!

(And yes, i LUV gyarados)

= GPR = October 7th, 2008 5:25 AM

>owie< he bit me! just now he bit me! CUTE! HA! that's what he wants you to think!

No, he's cute when he want's to be... he'll cuddle up by your ear and "fluff" which is what we call his grooming. He gets all poofie looking, it's kinda funny, anyhow then he does a little shake and all the loose feathers go flying every which way!

Right now he can say:

"come here cody"
"cody, cody, cody"
"me, me, me!"
And maybe what we think is a "no"

he likes to play to with his little straw toys, like right now, his game is picking it up in his little beak, walking to the edge of the desk, and throwing it off the side. then if i dont pick it up, he crys and screams "me! me! me! me!" until i give it to him. and then guess what he does! yep that's right! he throws it off the side again! little rotten bird!

Um... yeah, so that had nothing to do with spriting... so...um...here...

Domin-8 October 13th, 2008 10:19 AM

My only complaint on your map is the house on the sand, unless it had illars it would fall right into the sea as it is going under the house (like three pixels) but still structurally speaking after years of that it would fall in from beach erosion.

= GPR = October 13th, 2008 10:26 AM

dont forget that is the water in shot! the waves go in and out, so that is as far as the water would go... anyhow... i kind of ran out of room... and the person who lives in that house loves water anyhow! so she wouldnt mind ^_^

You didn't shade the outline right at all. You're supposed to put the lighter outline shade towards the top-left, and black in the bottom-right.

If you want to get what she means looks at the game sprites themselves, you notice that the midtone on the body( not the highlight ) is the outline around the lighest part of the body, getting darker in color away from the light eventually leaving you with a little bit of black.

storm393 October 16th, 2008 5:28 PM

nice work on the red gyrados! loved the colors! keep up the good work! :)

= GPR = October 17th, 2008 7:40 PM

domin8 and mobile tsk, you have my permission to take the avelect sprite, and redo the shading. i am not quite getting what ya mean. i know how to do the shading, but i cant seem to get it right, and i know that... :(

Fantomix October 18th, 2008 5:00 AM

1 Attachment(s)
Hey, I like all your stuff :) I believe that what they meant was your shading is fine. You just haven't shaded the outline properly. Sounds confusing, yup. Well anyway, where the light spots are on the sprite, on the top of the wings, head etc. the outline should be a little darker than the light colour itself. Therefore, you will usually use the main colour of the thing your shading as the colour of the outline around the lighter colour. Then when the main colour has an outline, you usually use the darkest colour you used to shade the part for that. So on and so forth. Here, i sorta did it for you. (It was real quick though xD) I know I didn't have permission but yeah.

= GPR = October 19th, 2008 7:34 AM

thnx fantomix! i see what they mean now, i just wasnt comprehending it before...
...this looks awesome now! hehehe... you even used my color pallette!

but really, thanks alot!

The Original Darkwiz787 October 19th, 2008 7:49 AM

Hey! that new scratch is nice!
And yeah, the outline was wrong, but now it's all fixed!

= GPR = October 20th, 2008 2:00 PM

thnx! i think fantomix did a great job on it! thnx again fantomix! anyways, it does look very nice, and i liked the idea of an electric flying type, since there is only one other, and it's the legendary zapdos... at least now, trainers can catch a pokemon that is not a legendary and is the only one of it's elemental type!

master morty October 20th, 2008 2:22 PM

The colors on the gyarados are...beautiful. however it looks like all the outlines are black

= GPR = October 20th, 2008 2:33 PM

i seem to be able to make beautiful sprites, but with terrible outlines! that seems to be my one point of weakness... i might, might go back and change em all...

I don't like the shading on sparkrust too much. And it is really just a cirele with legs and a tail, I don'tunderstand it

= GPR = October 20th, 2008 6:30 PM

it's technically a voltorb... an old one that is all rusty that never evolved into an electrode... it is exclusive to Grotto in Carbon...the shading is funky b/c it is supposed to be rusty. i know that it's not one of my greatest, but it really isnt that bad, is it?

Your spriting just seems to get better and better, I wonder no one comes to this page.

= GPR = October 23rd, 2008 8:07 PM

me too... for both of ya... i dont like sparkrust's shading much... nor do i know why not a lot of people seem to come here...

i think sparkrust's shading is to "layered". it is like soil sediments stacked on eachother, it is not very round, and it doesnt make much sense... i did a good job on the outlining though, which was supposed to be the purpose of him... he was just outlining practice! ^_^

thanks everyone!

... i think we can consider this my catch phrase from now on...

Nina October 23rd, 2008 8:29 PM

The fossil is pretty neat, but I have no clue about anatomy. I'm not sure if all of that would fossilize in the same way. I know it's just a little sprite but you might wanna look up the way the bones would probably lay. Like his eye sockets would be hollow, and the whiskers might now have actual bone in them.
I guess the colors are right but it just doesn't give off that "boney" feel. Perhaps a different way of shading?

I do like the ground though. xD It looks just like spray paint but it's nice.

ForeverRed October 23rd, 2008 9:27 PM

nice stuff gp_art ^_^
keep up spriting ;)

Crosell October 24th, 2008 12:53 AM

You're not a bad spriter when I look at the first post.
Mostly the problem is the shading and the anatomy..
Best way to master those 2 skills are revamping and reshading an original sprite.
You like gyrados, so grab a gyrados sprite, and make his outline black, then make the rest of his colours white and start reshading the sprite, the first tries it will look kinda strange, but after a while you see your getting better, and that way you can make a totally new scratch sprite with nice shading.
For revamping you should fix the anatomy and shade the sprite, you will notice that after revamping a couple of times you´ll get better, that way you might find itt easier to sprite scratch sprites.
To be honest I haven´t revamped much when I just started, but it´s really a great help trust me.

And your scratch avalact, the first one is better then the edit btw, why ?
The second is too much pillowshaded, it makes it look awkward, no black outline is bad for fakemon sprites.
So best thing you should do, is refix the shading and add some black outline on the parts where the darkest shading is.

Yume Tsuki October 24th, 2008 2:12 AM

This is technically a fusion between gyarados and milotic, but nothing is derived from prexisting sprites except the color pallette. This is my first presentable scratch. Took around two hours to get it to the form it's in now. I know the outlining is a bit thick, and the shading is a bit weird, but i wanted it to look "scaly".

http://c.imagehost.org/0740/Milodos.png
Milodos- Beautiful Dragon Pokemon
Water/Flying

There is only one of these Pokemon known to exist.
It is said to be so beautiful, all are compelled to stare
at it, unable to look away.

http://c.imagehost.org/0074/Humsaw.png
Humsaw- Blade Beak Pokemon
Flying/Steel

Humsaw must beat its wings a hundred times a second
to support the weight of its large beak. This Pokemon
keeps its beak sharp by running it against tree sides.

http://c.imagehost.org/0887/Luvfin.png
Luvfin (Heart shaped Pokemon)
Water

Luvfin, the evolved form of Luvdisk, live only in the warm tropic waters
that surround Floridian Island. These Pokemon have such a cute charm,
they can make people fall in love with the first person they see.

http://d.imagehost.org/0595/Avelect.png(My original)
http://www.pokecommunity.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=43379&stc=1&d=1224334698(edit by fantomix)
Avelect (Static Bird Pokemon)
Flying/Electric

Avelect's wings are always positively charged, resulting in these
Pokemon being unable to fly near eachother without being buffeted
in the opposite direction. Avelect's static wings also absorb electricity.

http://c.imagehost.org/0049/Spinum.png
Spinum- Spinning Pokemon
Steel

Spinum have been clocked at speeds over one hundred
miles an hour. This Pokemon's organs are magnetically
held in place in its body so it never becomes dizzy.

http://d.imagehost.org/0035/Sparkrust.png
Sparkrust (Rusty Ball Pokemon)
Electric/Steel

Voltorb have been found throughout the Grotto region that
have not evolved into Electrode. These old rusty Voltorb are
instable, so electric items are magnetically pulled to them.

http://c.imagehost.org/0711/Santoki.png
Santoki (Mountain Rabbit Pokemon)
Normal

Santoki are spirited little Pokemon that bounce around on
their spring-like tails. This Pokemon relys on echo vision to
see and hear, since they are all born blind.

http://b.imagehost.org/0256/Chickabee.png
Chickabee (Lilttle Helper Pokemon)
Flying/Ice

Chickabee line the postal station, carrying around packages and
letters to place in the correct P.O. boxes. These little pokemon
aspire to one day leave the post station to deliver like a Delibird.

http://c.imagehost.org/0152/Antwerp.png
Antwerp (Little Ant Pokemon)
Bug/Ground

Antwerp work day and night preparing a feast for the
queen Aviant. These little Pokemon are very strong, able
to lift twenty times their weight.

http://c.imagehost.org/0327/Aviant.png
Aviant (Queen Ant Pokemon)
Bug/Flying

Aviant spends much of it's time eating the feast prepared
by the Antwerps. She becomes very fat, resulting in a loss
of flight because her wings can't support her weight.

http://b.imagehost.org/0289/Scorchant.png
Torchant (Fire Ant Pokemon)
Bug/Fire

Torchants assemble immediately if a threat to the queen
Aviant is brought upon. These Pokemon will fight viciously
to protect their queen Aviant, as well as weaker Antwerps.

http://fc20.deviantart.com/fs36/f/2008/288/5/3/5369eed34e2710aa498e65ab53cdf8d2.png
Wraithoreon (Dark Ray Pokemon)
Ghost/Dark

This is a VERY bad one that i had made for a friend. I do not
really know his pokedex entry, or much info on him. PLEASE
do not steal him!!! (not that anyone would want to anyhow...)

http://c.imagehost.org/0375/Orelec.png
Orelec- Iron Cat Pokemon
Steel/Electric

Released from the bonds that held it for thousands of
years, Orelec roams the world avoiding humans as much
as possible. It can create thunder storms in an instant.

http://c.imagehost.org/0845/Oreod.png
Oreod- Iron Cat Pokemon
Steel/Fire

Oreod is a Pokemon blinded by hatred of humans.
It roams the world burning down towns and the
homes of any people it comes upon.


Although there are a lot of nice pieces of work here, they mostly seem to be linked by the same problems. Perspective, anatomy, shading. Try to study the offical shading style more, especially on the rounder pokemon, also try looking at the wing anatomy of other sprites (HUmsaw looks very flat and peculiar.) However a lot of the designs are coming along well, the milotic type pokemon for instance is starting to really take form.

Keep it up.

Hmmm...like you said, it was only a little sprite... it was originally supposed to be for the halloween contest, as a skeleton, but then i didn't make him all ribby.. instead, i left him petrified in stone. oh... the background soil is the spray paint tool...

Hmm... i see what ya mean, i figured it myself...
I see how the bright spot is always in the south east, but determining what is supposed to be brightened is hard. i also have trouble figuring where to put the dark spots that are shaddows from apendiges, like gyarados' crest, i am not sure how i would do that...
i know that the round pokemon are my worst, they have very "blocky" shading... and it looks bad... i think i might have a fix to that using the circle tool...unless you guys have any suggestions...

This has been a truly magnificant moment in the history of the United States. Forty years ago, a southern black preacher stood on the steps of the most powerful city in the world. He sang out, "I have a dream! All men will be equal!" Forty years later, that dream has been carried through the generations to a pivotal moment. Congradulations to President Barack Obama, for not only becoming the first African American President in our proud nations history, but for proving to all, that if you have a dream, there is no one stopping you from obtaining except yourself!

Your fakemon aren't bad at all, the designs are pretty cool. There are some things you have to work on though, especially the shading and outlining. I suggest making some revamps, (REAL revamps) with custom shading etc.

= GPR = November 10th, 2008 5:21 PM

ahh... so your the first one to catch that! i did not redo the shading, as when i first made em, i was still a beginner... i really have to need to go back now and redo them. but thanks for the suggestion anyhow ^_^

as for the shading, i have been playing around alot, and have determined that i am getting better. i will post newly done stuff when i feel like it... for now, you'll all just have to wait...

Se Ya!

But Obama in a full black isn't that nice. I suggest you make a suit, or a tie or something?

Titan of Lightning November 15th, 2008 10:57 PM

With that stance, he looks a little evil, especially with his angry expression. Also, he doesn't look that well shaded, so you might want to change that.

= GPR = November 17th, 2008 3:37 PM

>ahem< i made that in honestly less than five minutes... i recolored my rp sprite and just threw together the head (look at the zoomed in view...)
he's standing with his left side to us, so you wouldn't see his tie, and he's waving to the crowd...
thank you all for your tips! i will use them when i make new stuff!

Getting better, but theres a lot of pillow shading, & I'm pretty sure you don't want that ...

= GPR = November 20th, 2008 10:34 PM

okay, so what exactly constitutes pillow shading? what is it exactly and how would you suggest that i avoid it? (it's hard to stop doing something that i dont know what i'm doing...)

like where is pillow shading at in my sprites?

by the way, is the light spot positioning better at least?

= GPR = November 21st, 2008 4:33 PM

Ok... the originals on my first post dont have correct shading... so ive been redoing some of the shading on some of these guys, so here they are...

Whoo that's a pretty big house! It's pretty good in design, but I'm gonna nit-pick on the lines.
You see how on the doors and windows it's either straight or going up 1 pixel at a time? And for the most part the step is going up by 2 pixels at a time?
Those lines look wonderful! But on alot of other things there is a variation, and makes it look choppy. :c
I don't know if it's the choppy-ness or the placement of the sidewalk, but the acutal grass seems to warp down after it, pulling the whole picture into a weird warp and it looks bad. Last, the little...clumpies (on the house siding and the side of the bricks in the garden set off) where you get some extra pixels look bad.

But overall it is a good design that can be easily fixed into some straighter lines that are much more pleasing.

= GPR = November 29th, 2008 9:03 PM

thanks lornami ^_^

it took a very long time to make it! i see what you mean about the "clumpys"... i'll definetly fix em when i get the chance.

as for the roof as stuff, it is hard to get a comformed angle... hm... i'm not sure how to get it to tilt the right way, and i may have an extra line or two that need to be erased...

as for the lawn... my house is on a slight hill, and the driveway slopes down to the sidewalk, before it becomes flat...although it looks weird, it's funny that it's actually like that!

thanks for the tidbits!

i like the new pose, but i need help with the shading. Please pm if you make it better. BUT ASK BEFORE YOU TAKE IT SO I CAN APPROVE!!! Or else it's theft!

Chibi Robo December 1st, 2008 8:58 PM

The New pose is much better then the old pose why not edit the old pose and then animate it with the new and old pose (just an idea!)

bubblewrap December 1st, 2008 9:37 PM

Boy, I haven't been here in a while. xD
Anyhoo, I like the new pose also.

= GPR = December 5th, 2008 4:36 PM

OMG this looks so much better!!! The darkness of the orange tone really brings out the anger!!! grr!

bubblewrap December 6th, 2008 4:26 PM

I agree, the darker colour looks much better on the fakemon.
The new Obama head looks much better.

Glitter Stain December 6th, 2008 6:04 PM

Please, another color. I don't like the first version for obvious reasons, but dark colors don't look suitable for this sprite. Just make it a bit brighter and get rid of the cut-up shading.

Hmmm...so I guess I'm not the only one thats been improving on my shading, and drawings, but anyway this looks great(when are you gonna send the newest ones to me?). The shading just seems like it has not outline to it, but overall It's looking quite good.

JessieB December 7th, 2008 4:26 PM

Some of your fakemon are really neat :D I really like the Slowqueen one XD That's awesome.

Keep uo the great work :D

= GPR = December 8th, 2008 5:44 PM

Ok, i just entered this in the December Pixel Art Contest!
http://e.imagehost.org/0435/chickadee_contest_pic.png

btw, thanks to all who have been responding! i'm honestly trying to do everything that you suggest...
...as for oreod, i like his colors, and am keeping it that was...sorry mobile tsk ^_^

doesn't matter December 9th, 2008 5:21 AM

Well I thought it was impressive that you'd attempt such a large piece, and I think it's a good effort. The way you've drawn your trees contrasts the animals in the snow so much in terms of shading and such. I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing since it allows them to stand out, but it kinda looks awkward.
