    Looks like a fun challenge idea.

    This does seem to be the popular silhouette, doesn't it? I'll just have to try to come up with something for the other two this week to even things out.

  • It looks like other people saw a snake too! I was going to go for some funky big-lipped cobra, but I thought of another idea and something close to the community or 'home.'

    The anatomy of Sawk looks sort of awkward but I was content with the current look of it. The blob is definitely tough to work around with this idea.

    Edit:

  • So I don't think I can look at pixels much more tonight.
    EDIT: Tuned up a few areas for Zygarde.

    Another Edit: Man, some of the work you guys are posting is phenomenal. So jealous. Relicanth is giving me no end of hassle on third blob and Octillery refuses to shape up. Might need to try some other 'mons.

  • Hey guys! You all did great, and I'll tally up points soon and update the first post, but I'm feeling a little under the weather right now.
    I will however give you the second challenge! Like I said before, you have 24 hours after this post to just go ahead and finish up the first challenge.

    Pixel Challenge #2

    :pokeball: This week, we're going to do small pixel foods! Anything you want!
    • Make sure it fits into a 32 x 32 square.
      [*]Use 8 colors total!

    :pokeball: For this week.... (#2)
    You'll get 10 points for doing your first sprite. You then will get 3 points for every sprite after, up to 5 extra sprites.

    First time trying pixel art from scratch - 4 colours is hard :s
    I'll be back to fix this later for personal sanity.

    Just a regular pelican, but inspired by Pelipper's colors.

  • I think that looks pretty good zappyspiker.

    And now for my last and sloppiest entry, but first some (dis)honorable mentions for the failures!

    One ugly Roserade 2x and a shoddy Mismagius were the next-most completed of my six attempts at this silhouette. The earliest three don't even bare mentioning at this point.

    Blech. So, enough wasted words. Have a terribad Lugia for my last submission. The anatomy is, uh, awry, with the foot facing us raised and the tail swinging around the back of the body.

  • 7 colours + 1 for transparency

    This challenge gave me pretty good practice with colour choice and hue shifting. I think it could use more touch-ups but I'm content with it. I'm not that great with shading fruit, especially a multifaceted fruit like an apple.
