he looks great! also what do you plan on doing once you've revamped all your old sprites? do you think you'll make new sprites, or, what?
 
update!

new sprites? hmm, check out the first post and that should answer your question.

i always had sketches of Kamoflec but i always felt it was too generic. only until recently, i realized that generic evos are ok when you have a custom ability like color change.
 
yeah, gourdid is a splitty. i like my splitties =D

ok UPDATE!

madusol --new name and look. what do ya think?
 
Madusol:

The likenesses to Mawhile are there, but they are sort of hard to pick up on unless I look at the sprite thoroughly. The yellow and green skin and the face do give it away though. So you convinced me that it's a mawhile evo ^^

I'm a bit ... questioning? of the tail though... it seems to be strangely posed. Is madusol supposed to be floating in the air? otherwise why would the tail be lower than the feet? It has a sentret pose feel to it... but with an awkwardly angled tail...

Sorry if that wasn't much a help :/

... nevertheless...

Keep Spriting!
 
it's not a tail. look at the bottom of mawile's anatomy. notice that mawile has a skirt-like thing going on.

so i took that idea and represented a dress in the design.

ah! i see... but still, it looks a bit strange being that much farther below the feet... it still gives the impression that madusol is floating :/
 
agreed, it kinda is floating... well, not so much floating, more alike hovering. yannow... like a spirit? think gardevoir... lol

i don't want to say it floats cus then there's the expectation that it has levitate which would make it SOOO broken in the competitive metagame. invulnerable to fighting, neutral to dark/ghost AND has levitate? that's immediate uber tier.

madusol would definitely be a formidable OU even with the ground weak.

i don't know samson... it's you sprite! Don't get me wrong, it's a wonderful sprite, but that "tail" portion just puts me off... it just doesn't visually make sence to me...

maybe if was spread out behind the feet... instead of just kinda sticking out there? idk...
 
oh no i totally agree that it does look awkward, i don't question that. i think it's hard to visualize that sorta thing when working in GBA dimensions and you don't see the actual sketch work/art.
 
Most of your sprites are very nice, I especially like supiel. One of the things I thought could use some work was the Birdawl backsprite, which looked like it was pointed almost directly sideways, instead of looking at the opponent. Also, the trotter sprite just looked a little odd, the anatomy of the head is really strange. If that's what you're going for, then it looks fine, just wasn't sure. Overall, your sprites are really impressive, keep up the good work!

Oh, I agree ^^

Perhaps if you angled it backwards so it would look wider, but be spread between the legs... not going below the level of them though... do you get what i mean?

(everything about that sprite is wonderful except that tail >:(
 
update!

nothing too major, except maybe Stormidra is now known as Thundra.

simpler names just sound better, ya know?
 
Okay, cuz I'm never going to be able to be the spriter you are, I'll use some of yours in my new hack. Thanks in advance for your talent and the fact you're sharing it.
