...Oh my.
Guys, I'm..I guess I'm speechless. Vendix, yuuichi was clearly agitated, I know for the most part you were only following the crit rule (well done for that btw) but I think it should of being clear that yuuichi wasn't going to take your crit well and you should of taken that in and just left the thread be. On top of that, you started arguing back and then posting completely irrelevant messages which didn't help at all. .Fukari, I understand a lot of what you were saying, I too get hacked off when i and others give out decent crits only to have them refused and thrown back in our faces, however, posting about it and going off topic wasn't the answer, as I said above, leaving the thread alone would of being a much better idea. 07Harris. Please try following our rules and not going off topic in the future. Yuuichi, seriously. If you're going to get angry over criticism, especially a forum where the rules demand decent crit, then i strongly suggest you take a step back from posting sprites for a while, follow some tutorials, think it through a little and then come back to it. Crit is there to help you, and trust me, everything Vendix was saying (although yes he could/should of being nicer) is true. Your shading, anatomy and palettes could all do with work, so could perspective and design. I can't help but feel you have jumped into the deep end by posting scratches so early on in your spriting legacy, try some fusions, recolours etc and build up your skills. |
ive been trying to work on my shading and this is the latest result

C&C: outline - try and do the outline shading shape - a bit off but that takes work nothing else really - good job - you are improving! |

Anyway, I mgiht as well crit this latest one and leave it at that. It look a little bumpy and messy half way down. It could be rounded more there. could do with more rounding overall, and some outline shading. THe shading looks a little pillow shaded around the top (i.e light in the middle, darker shade around it and so on. it's a bit different in official pokemon). Overall, it's an improvement. |
you could make it look more hmmmm pokemonish , by add horns and extra features - but yeah i guess it looks a bit like a snake!
|
again i try
http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/1183/idontknow2.png i havent thought of a name for the other on nor this one yet |
http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/2867/volty.pngthis has some good basic shape to it. although that color is WAY too bright.
id try something a bit softer. i applaud you for using an outline color that isnt plain black, it gives the sprie more character. some of the lines are a bit scetchy though, i think you should take this sprite off until you have is completly done so that we can see what exactly you are going for though. your on the right track with this, though you have a lot you need to improve on, remember:practice DOES make perfect! |

The snake is an improvement, just make it more smooth.
Ombrenus, or whatever has, yet again, a bad pallete, try using multiple colours. Ombrenus also has the light coming from the left, not top-left. |

What I mean for Ombrenus is that you can have blue/pink or whatever color you're using, but you should make the wings a different color from the body, to make it look not plain. Your pokemon only have like 6 or 7 colors, instead, you could have 16. Compare yours with Nintendo's, and think about it.

ok i made em red |

As 5qwerty said about the second sprite, the shading is coming from the wrong direction for pokemon-styled sprites, the palette needs help, and also, the shading is flat. That recolor's palette is atrocious, by the way. Not nearly enough contrast in the highlights and shadows, and it's too dark overall, hiding the details of the sprite. Seriously, you should try to get palettes from existing sprites, and try to learn the style better before attempting to create your own palette. [Edit] Quote:

change the colour on the wings to something (qoute kenji): that complements the other colour... And the outline of the wings is still blue :( |
Quote:
Also, I just noticed that you completely altered the shading by recoloring the wings. Now the wings seem to have a light source coming from the body, while the body's light source is coming from the left. That.. isn't good. |
Personally, I think Red is fine. I mean look at Salemance, Blue body with red wings, nothing wrong with it.
