Some pretty recent stuff.
 
Most of these are from the past 2 months, and therefore I'm still interested enough in them to go back and fix them, so any crit would be greatly appreciated.

A Blue version Ivysaur revamp, I quite like it.

A muscleman for a friend's game. It's a quick mix i threw together but it's grown on me a lot.

A heavy WiP for the sadly doomed December contest. I would REALLY love crit on this one.

MGS4 PMC troopers in D/P overworld style. I'm pretty fond of these, and feel I really made a good comeback to the style with them, however I can't place my finger on what the problems are even though I know they are there.

Thanks again for any comments, I'll repost them as soon as I make any noteworthy changes.

Nice sprites! I really like the revamp, but the flower might be in the wrong angle.This one is very cool too. I don't like the mountains though, the purple anti-aliasing you used is too bright and the shading isn't right. Mountains aren't smooth like that... they're irregular and rough.

Your sprites have nice shading and are sprited well. 9.4/10 for them all. not a 10 or anything lol, mainly because: That revamp has dark outline to me, all THICK from the lighter outline colors.

Only rit i can say is that ivysaurs bulb is to... like, narrow?
Idk, make it more round and not as long.

Blazers December 29th, 2008 2:43 PM

Yup i was thinking the same thing.
Its bulb just isn't fat enough.
Other than thats is good.

it is a flower bulb it looks fine, compare it to a real flower bulb

Thanks for the comments guys, with Ivysaur I completely agree that the bud is iffy, i'll probably follow Zorin's suggestion and change the angle completely.

I know what you mean about the mountains too, they look too cartoony/soft. I'm gonna use a more subdued purple and change the shading to be more raised areas and sharp points.
