I made another sprite.
Evolution of dunsparce.


I like it :)

Constructive Critism is appreciated!
That's awesome stuff bud. I love it. Dunsparce is one of my faves and seeing such a well made evo is pretty nice ahaha. i think you got everything pretty good, the anatomy, shading etc all looks fine. the wings look a teeny bit different to each other but i guess that's probably the angles they're at.

Thanks for your reply.!
YEa I agree with the wings, it was probably the space so I had some problems making the other wing fit into it.
Also I think dunsparce deserves a evolution, since he looks kinda baddass for a little worm haha!

100% scratch :D
It rather looks good, its build is just fine.
It should have some added stuff though.
I find it somewhat empty.
Other then that, I think the wing could be reshaded.
Good sprite!


Merry christmass to you all btw ^^

I want to try my hand at scratching - but I wanted to start simple and use an existing sprite for reference. Eyeballed everything but the circle-ness though, (let photoshop do that part) from picking the colors of the shading to placing the pixels down...

First thought is, I should turn some of those lit black border pixels red, any other comment/critique? ^^ Just looking to improve here.

@ Kajhera: Its good that you start simple, while learning to scratch.
And scratching a voltorb is easy but then again, if you cant shade it aint easy.
It's not bad, but not great either, like you said, some of the outline should be a darker red instead of black.
The blackoutline is only used, when a darker shade is used on the sprite.
You best watch some tutorials which are on the pixel art section.

@ Jhuh1995: It's shaded in a different style then the pokemon style.
Might be because your new to this.
It's really not that bad, you should also check some tutorials before trying to scratch something.
Since your new to spriting, most people start with fusions and revamps before scratching.

Anyway I made a new sprite.
It's not reallly done, shading could be better so.

hope you like it :)

Heh, thanks... I did check out a tutorial after doing this, tried to make an eevee, and failed somewhat spectacularly. ^^ I'll post my revised voltorb and attempted eevee anyway...

I ... really hate the eevee ... but ... I should probably post it anyway, for the sake of concrit on what I can try to not fail at proportions. :/ I used circles, but it seemed like the outlines changed size when I penned... Perhaps I should do penciling first for these sorts of things. In shading, likely attempted too much dithering, seeking to familiarize myself with the style.

Eep, scary bug. o.o (In a good way, it's a cool design.) It looks better against a cream background than some of your other sprites, probably due to color choice. ... Perhaps I should change my skin back to not-cream.

Where the outline is lit up, it becomes a darker shade of the color it's on, rather than black. This helps maintain the lighting and makes it less harsh.

In terms of how to shade pokémon style, try blowing up a sprite of the style you're trying to emulate. The light source in battle sprites is generally from the upper left, as I remember from a tutorial ... You'll want several shades, precise number depending on the number of colors your style uses and ... some other things, but a color area often has at least 3: highlights, mid-tones, and shadows. If you're working in an older style with a more limited palette, you can use dithering (checkerboard shading) to stretch fewer colors into seeming like a larger palette.

Any of this helpful? I'm new at this myself, so a lot's parroting from a tutorial. ^^
