Stormruler's Pixel Thread
I'm new to spriting so don't be harsh, However I do support costurctive critisism, So critisize all you want(but in a good and helpful way please). Fakemon (Scratches) Not Public Spoiler:
New stuff coming soon:classic: |
i really really like them man. Keep it up. Work on the shadowing more too but other then that they look awesome!
|
Dinocle is really good from below the head. Try thinning his outlines on the head and put some more shading ;D

Spherical Ice's Constructive Criticism: Constructive Criticism for StormRuler's sprites.
Pros: Great choice of soft colours; when you put your mind to it, you produce some awesome concepts (Chibow <3); you don't seem to be afraid of scratching, which is a good start for a beginner. +4 Cons: Your sprites have little-to-none shading; you seem to have a problem with your sprite-orientation. -3 Total: 7/10 Suggestions: Look up some shading tutorials - which I'll look for and then edit this post with, and practice more. Also try to orient your sprites to face the bottom-left. A good way to do that is by drawing a dot and making sure that your sprite is always facing that dot... and put the dot in the bottom-left, obviously. Good luck! You've got potential to grow into an awesome spriter, I mean, you're already better then me. And you're the first person to get con-critted with my speshul quote. |
I don't have a speshul quote, but here goes:
As it's been said, you have pretty good line art. This is a great start for your sprites. Unfortunately most of your lines are black all around. Flambee's head, though, is more of what you want. Lighter colors toward the upper left and darker ones toward the lower right. Some will tell you not to use black at all and go with an almost-black, but I wouldn't worry about that at the moment. Getting the "lighting" right should be your goal. Chibow has some nice colors, needs shading, etc. The shape of the head is pretty nice. I like the narrow eye, though I'd prefer if it stood out more. It gets lost in all those bold colors. Perhaps you could show a little of its other wing to make it look like it's facing more forward and less sideways. Dinocle has a pretty promising pose. I like the foreshortened leg, but the other is too flat with that straight line for the bottom edge. Angle that a little down and you'd have something that looks more 3-dimensional. The head and arms could be give a similar look if they were changed, too, though that's a lot more work than just altering one line and I wouldn't presume to tell you how best to do it. The tail looks... stumpy. It's pretty much an even thickness and with tails you'd expect something on the end or for it to get somewhat narrower. With Iceral you can pretty much go with what Spherical Ice said. The tail has a good shape, but I feel the body is too small for it. One might have to change size to match the other. Flambee is your best with more shading, a pretty good pose (even if it looks like it's facing a little too much to the side), and nice colors. The flame on its tail is kind of plain. I don't know what that thing is on the front left leg and the back right doesn't need to be so skinny. It also looks like you used too many shades of orange. You have light, medium and dark shades on the face, head and neck, but then you have a fourth, medium-dark shade around some of the legs and you could just as easily use the dark shade you used on the neck. It would give you more space to work with other colors and stay under the 16-color limit. I assume you're reading tutorials and looking at official sprites to help you, but if not, well, do it. Again, good lines, good color, and good luck. |
I've drawn a new fakemonwhich is called Dinity.
Here have a look. Spoiler:
Hope you like it.:classic: |
It's cute. A little plain, but there's nothing really bad about it. The highlight on the head doesn't need that grey outline, though. At least it could be a light blue. You do have room for a few more colors so why not add a little variety, eh?
Where did the other sprites go? If you're working on them that's great, but you should leave them up so you have the minimum 4 sprites you need to keep your thread open. |
yea throw some shading in the and it will look sweet

I've edited my current fakemon as you guys said and i've made a few more.
Here are the new ones: http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/album_thumbs/37/9bac2645105f4b347083c18d97108983_37416.png?dl=1262370248http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/album_thumbs/37/52dbb7093bbfa03e753d6db7bf55e0a0_37415.png?dl=1262370248http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/album_thumbs/37/08d775fa2bc561dd7526056e133c4691_37414.png?dl=1262370221http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/album_thumbs/37/9eda913946179c15a5443ff23a3f3fea_37412.png?dl=1262370221 |
