I am doing recolors, I have examples


Here are my posting rules
  • Decide Every color
  • I do only pokemon, not trainers
  • No Fusions
  • Only 1 request per post
  • I do only RS/FR,LG sprites,
Not all the colors will work, if they don't I will post that and you can RErequest. If you do not follow these rules, your post will be ignored

Being your first is NO excuse.And by awful shading,i mean there is no darker or lighter colors to make it realistic.

Since others have mentioned shading, I'll mention other things as well:

My advice would just be to not use bright colors. Like the magenta on the houndour, or the lime green on the wailord...bright colors like that really don't suit pokemon sprites, and tend to stick out way too much.

Oh, and if possible, never ever save a sprite in .jpg format. The file compression tends to make sprites not look as good as they could be.

I actually see shading on the eevee, it's just that because there's not much in the way of value difference, it's not seen well enough. When shading, watch out for that - make sure there's enough of a difference between the lightness/darkness of the colors chosen, so that any shading/highlighting attempts can be seen.

I do like your porygon, though, just because of the colors used for it.

Firemaker there is little shading or none at all.
I agree with that statement. Firemaker, pratice your shading as much as possible BEFORE opening a request shop. Your first try is no excuse when it comes to spriting. Look at the Houndour, the shading is horrible on it, and Zapdos and Eevee don't even have any shading at all. Try harder next time, and
you'll get better. ;D

well, i don't know much about spriting, but i can tell the difference between good and bad :x the only good one, imo is the porygon, because the colors don't look like normal MSPaint colors, as the rest do. i can hardly tell the Wailord is a wailord.. x.x
if you wanted people to see your first-try sprites, you should make a new thread, rather than make a request thread. i can, however, understand where he's coming from. maybe he wanted to get better and be good enough for other people to want his sprites... i see that a lot in G&P, only with banners, not sprites. *shrugs*

Like most have said you need to work on shading. The only good ones are krabby, porygon, and omnamyte. The wailord would look better if it wasn't a jpeg. And the magmar isn't even recolored. Just inverted OO. And for the chansey, I'll give you a little advice. Never, ever, EVER, use default paint colors. *calms down*

Thanks, Sukoshi Tenma!

This is a cool site!
Thanks Maxie! He's adorable! Thanks for the avatar Katsuro!

You can simply change the colors by double clicking on the dots for them.But that also is no excuse.Unless you are using 16 bit BMPs,you could do better.The chansey looks awful but the 'puff looks okay.
