[PokeCommunity.com] Pokémon: GSC Revamp Project

Here's Espeon from Gold/Crystal. :) I'm not too keen on how the back leg came out, though. :\ Oh, and I also changed some bits to make it similar to modern Espeon sprites (thinner tail, ears are slightly different etc.) :) Also, yay for doing all the Espeon srites. (b' ')b XD

Huh? I've NEVER in my LIFE ANYONE has said to me you pick, besides my parents. Okay, then. You do Lugia, Ho-Oh & Celebi! Lugia for Gold, Ho-Of for Silver, & Celebi for Crystal! Have fun!:)
 
I really think you need to reshade these; they look more like recolours than revamps. I'll redo Machoke to show you what I mean.
Go for it! I'll keep OminousMix's there too until OminousmIx comes back online and replies.

Hopefully this will explain what I mean. More needs to be done to update the artstyle to the current standard. There's a lot less dithering, and with more colours to play with, the shading is normally much clearer, the outline is much more shaded, and I've updated the detail of the belt to what it looks like in BW. I hope this helps.
 
Ok, this is from Crystal. :) Btw I made the things white instead of yellow. Maybe someone can edit it? [PokeCommunity.com] Pokémon: GSC Revamp Project
 
Done two more. :)

Mew from Pokemon Silver. I love its Silver sprite. It is so awesomel it's probably one of my favourite Mew sprites. :)

Voltorb from Pokemon Gold/Crystal. I was originally going to submit it to the Red/Blue revamp project thread, due to them essentially having the same sprite (except the Gold/Crystal sprite uses red and the 'shading' is different), but since someone already did Voltorb in that thread, I just updated it and I am going to submit it here. :)

Indeed this helps, but revamping doesn't awlays mean that you need to add every detail from the current artstyle of some pixel art. Not adding the belt and recoloring the basics is basic revamping. Shading isn't necessary but if you want to go a little more in detail it never hurts to be a little more detailed. I hope you get what i'm trying to say.

Sure, the exact detail on the belt might be OTT, but in my opinion, you do need to work on the shading for it to be a revamp and not a recolour. I think most people agree that shading *is* necessary.
 
Revamping a sprite often implies you're taking it above the original limitations, and in most cases the GSC sprites are barely shaded because it wasn't possible with the original 4-colour limit and art style.
 
Well i'm not going to argue since i know i can't win. So okay, i guess shading would be necessary. I'm not that good at revamping anyway so yeah...
By the way, i might not revamps for a while due to....Issues. *Look's right and left*
 

Announcement

Hello everyone! OminousMix is starting a new thread of this so he can take over this project! Sorry for the inconvenience, but I can't handle being the owner of this project any more.
 
Here's one I just made from Silver (feel free to give me comments):
