Destros Spriteys!

[Hoppyfred]

Aha! I have been looking for this thread, 'Greatest Spriter of our Time'. :P

EDIT: Whoops. You edited your signature.

:P Ah well, onto the criticism.


Darnine: Version 3.0 just owns the rest.

Darline: Version 3.0 is the best

Murkio: Alter the body position a bit, use the old version's arms on the new version's body, and either remove the wings or place them closer to its neck.

Fliosion: It seems that its head is coming out of its right wing...

Zaper: Shading on the arms looks different to the rest of body, like a different palette...otherwise good. Only realised it was a splice upon second glance.

Bugzry: Fine

Coonzry: Looks too much like Cascoon and Silcoon...unless it's meant to, in which case, not much point in using new sprite

Spizry: Fix palette / shading of head

Slize: Way worse then all your others...take it off :P

What do you mean another scratch sprite? None of these are scratches; you're not fooling anyone.

He almost fooled me :P

Buzry was an almost scratch sprite! why must you criticize me so? instead of saying, oh, you dont have any scracth sprites! why dont youjust say how im doing on the sprite THAT I JUST POSTED! if you wish to give me snide comments, then put them in the end of your message, so that i dont have to read them. yes, i know that i have not done any scratchs (excluding Buzrey, by technicality), so you dont have to state it. unless you have something to comment on, like shading that needs reworking, or some other SPRITE RELATED TOPIC, then I suggest that you bugger off!

This is why you dont make me angry! GP got one of these discussions as well!

So, heed my advice above, Mobile, and pick your side, Buggering off, or talking about something that matters, and then placing comments in the bottom, or pming me them!

As for the rest of you, I do not blame you for mobiles fault. you may criticize me in any form, so long as it isnt too off topic. Please continue posting your ideas/comments/improvements on this thread, and remember to keep on viewing this page! I would not have anything if not for all of you!

P.S. I shall be editing Slize a bit more to make it look less 2d, so Murkio will have to take a rest for awhile

But Burzy ISN'T a scratch sprite: it ALMOST is, but isn't. Also, try not to insult each other.

OK, seeing as noone is responding, admin, can you close this thread? I shall have to start a differnet one that will include buildings and other such things, as well as a plot and title screen snapshot

You could just edit the first post...seems to make more sense...

:P


Hope you accept my criticism and use it to help you improve!

 

[Destrozone]

you know what, ill do that!

P.S. I know slize looks bad, seeing as he is my ahem technical first scratch. I am reworking him. th second one kinda looks like a worm :(

P.P.S. thanks! i kinda needed more criticism that was nice like this stuff.

P.P.P.S. Sorry gyrados. i edited the post, so that should make it all better

Some of these sprites are just simple/unsual edits.

The lines on this one look sort of 2D. They should curve with the body, which they didn't here.

Actually it does curve with the body, the aren't striaght lines, and blood vessel are too small to make it 3D it looks fine.
Most of your posts are not very helpful, give more helpful info.

Now to this thread. Your sprites aren't bad for a beginner. If your want to get better at scratching sprites study the style your going for. Look how they have the lines curve smoothly, how they shade certain areas.

You can improve and all of this will help. If you need any tips PM me something you've done and I'll help you out.

 

[Fox♠]

yeah i guess i should take off Murkio. it isnt all that good. And I will redo Darnine. Coonzry is supposed to have to have the lines like that. they are blood vessels. not lines. plus, coonzry is pretty amazing, and i know your totally jealous of it =). i will work on the first two, but coonzry will stay the same for now, until popular demand says i should change it. Until tomorrow, though, i cant do that. after all,im only 13, and i have a bed time. C u tomorrow

Jealous of what? It's cascoon with a blue eye.

Although the ground/water one is pretty cool, only the 2nd version though.

 

[Destrozone]

Yeah, i'd better change that up to having spikes......
and, btw, murkio is getting some reworking, so expect to see some changes.
Oh, and btw btw, i would appreciate it if you continue your inputs(yes, even you mobile tsk) because, well, i need it very much

 

[Fox♠]

I like your attitude, so i;m gonna give you some serious advice.
Keep Murkio how it is, it's a pretty cool design, it looks like one of those really really old sharks. You're doing better with it.

Avoid editing Cascoon/Silcoon. Their bodies are too basic and leave very little room for creativity.

Work on your shading, make sure it fits the pokemon style light source (which is from the top left corner) if not your sprites end up looking flat.

 

[Glitter Stain]

Actually it does curve with the body, the aren't striaght lines, and blood vessel are too small to make it 3D it looks fine.

I was referring to the original version, which was removed. The blood vessels were flat. They didn't curve with the body.

 

[Domin-8]

I stated my veiw on what I saw, sorry that the sprite was changed, I did not know. My fault. sorry for that, but what I saw in your post is what I quoted, no need to get worked up. So technically I didn't question you incorrectly.If you need to say anying else PM me and we will discuss it.

 

[Destrozone]

Umm srry that im not posting new stuff right now........
between school and competetive swimming and homework and more swimming, im not finding very much time. i shall try to edit, tho. no new pokes until MEAs, but i will attempt to squeeze some edits into my spare time. keep a watch on the edits section on the orginal post ;)

 

[Destrozone]

ummmm ive posted new stuff, so you can tell me how it looks! just check the edits to see what i made.

 

[Hoppyfred]

Murkio V. 3: Eyes are best yet. I'm actually glad you took off the arms, and the wings are much more suitable and better placed. Yay! Now, you just need to fix the outline slightly.

Fliosion: WAY better. The head looks more rounded and professional, the horn looks a BILLION times better, and the neck is coming out of the right place. ^^


All done and criticised!

 

[= GPR =]

Murkio, the Water- Ground pokemon
Version 3.0

Coonzry, Bug Pokemon

Slize, The Fire Pokemon (Starter)
Version 1.0

Version 2.0

Rolgro, The Grass Pokemon (Grass Starter)
Version 1.0

Version 2.0

new murkio is best yet! you did a nice job editing it to make it look the way it is now! it seems to need a bit more shading on the bottom though...

in all respects, coonzy looks like a eye ball... it is a bit odd... don't make the veins stretch the whole lenght of it's body... they should only pop up here and there!

unless you have me fooled, the new "scratches" arent bad! at least not for your first ones! slize needs more shading, and his head is kinda funny looing, it just might be the angle... as for rolgro, it is very nicely done! the only thing is yoiu forgot to shade the edited in leaves! ^_^

your doing good though!

Keep Spriting!

 

[Destrozone]

actually, i did shade the leaves. Changed them from grovyle green to a custom shade. even check it

 

[Hoppyfred]

Slize: Not perfect...but WAY WAY better.

Rolgro: Well scratched, good eyes (LMAO), but seems like a weird concept. Too...odd. So odd it's almost like Oddish.

Keep it up!

 

[Destrozone]

LOL well i do need to redo the leaves a bit........ ideas begin to form

 

[= GPR =]

hoppy fred, the only thing odd here is,

odd. So odd it's almost like Oddish.

lol, that was enjoyable...

i see the shading now. it still isnt that profound, nor is the shading on murkio's "belly" or slizes'.

work on that and your doing good!

Keep Spriting

 

[Hoppyfred]

Rolgro v.3: AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

That looks way more menacing. It's leaves look like arched eyebrows. Seriously, the other two look like wussies compared to it.

And it looks a lot less like Oddish now.


EDIT: Ghostly Arcaine: Maybe you could give it some kind of aura? Nice recolour, but looks a bit...plain.

 

[Destrozone]

yeah, i should use some dark aura on him.

Btw i wanted Rolgro to look real menacing, so thats why they ae curved that way.

 

[Hoppyfred]

New Ghostly Arcanine: Aura looks quite good, but it needs some on the right of the sprite, ie on the Arcanine's left shoulder.

 

[Destrozone]

thank you. check out slize hes got new stuff now. although his tail needs some placement work
