Recolours and Fusions Thread

[Esper]

i kinda like sprites, but can't make original shadings just yet, so mine all suck xD
but i made my first recolour :D !

i kinda just used random shades of blue,

i've kinda came up with a theory to make perfectly recoloured sprites,
made this dragonite with it;

but i kinda messed up the end of the underside of the tail,
i know why, and i think my theory actually works,
with one or two exceptions :)

That blue looks too dark and too saturated. A shade that's easier on the eyes might be a better choice over randomly picking shades.

Feel free to share your theory, too.

I mixed Tsutaja and Charmander! :3

Tell me what you think!

Okay, firstly, the way you tried to include the intricate details (the thin lines on the tail) makes it look very scratchy; the colours in Tsutaja were used in chunks, so don't require anti-aliasing, however here they sort of do...

The main thing that stands out is that you tried to make Charmander look smug like Tsutaja does by lowering his "eyelid," however, along with the mouth's (how do you even pronounce that?) expression, it comes across as anxious or something, not smug or arrogant. So yeah...

Finally, nothing really seems to flow in this sprite. It all seems glued together, and just doesn't work well. >:

you didnt comment on my dragonite xD
well, i dont know how to explain it well,

i'm thinking of making a little guide for it,
but i made these using it :) .

...okay, my colour choices are terrible :P

I'm completely addicted to making pokemon fusions and recolors. Its incredibly fun, i might upload some of the work I've done later. :)

It's quite a bit after the fact, but I've moved The Heckler's two fusions into this thread.

 

[72pokemonmaniac27]

i was wondering what you guys thought of my fusions/recolors these are some of my first:) (The Luxtei or entei combined with luxray was my first ever fusion/recolor)

First off great to see you trying.

Few pointers:
Never save as JPEG/JPG-it ruins the quality always save as .PNG.
Never stretch/skew them-This also runs the risk of ruining it. If you want to have a zoomed in few. Zoom the page in then press Prt Scr button on your computer. This will capture the whole computer screen as a screenshot. Then just paste and select your sprite. This doesn't run the risk of ruining the sprite.

I would be able to give better help if they weren't JPG. But from what I can tell your not doing a horrible job.

Just make sure that when you swap pallets that you don't leave any of the old colors left. (such as the outline color on your evee/absol)

There are plenty of great fusions in this thread to look at. Or stop by the Fusion Sprite game in the appropriate board and you can see two that I just did.

I have some sprites for people to critique, aside from the recolour, feel free to guess what was in each one.
also this:

Gotta say this is probably your best one. The others just look pasted together. I would suggest trying to do what you did here to the others. Great job good to see people trying.

Thanks for the advice:) i'll try that :)

This is a fusion/recolor based on the idea for a fakemon I have. Dreadraze.

I think I fused the parts pretty well. C&C, please?

Great job!
More so a recolor though, to make it a better revamp, make it fit the 80 x 80 scale. Make it look more like a newer sprite. But again, great job outline is done well and shading seems to be fine.

 

[The 100 Mega Shock]

Yeah I put like an hour into it because I was bored. Hell if I'm putting more effort beyond having fixed his eyes.

Please try to include the 25-character, 4-word requirements in your post without resorting to filler.

Hey guys, I'm working on a Deoxys-Dex and wondered if anyone had any good ideas. Any crituiqe is appreciated. Here's what I've got so far.

To make things clear, the first one is a combination of all four forms. P.S, when I make more, do I bump this post or just make a new one?

 

[dr4g0n12]

First one is gardevoir+arcticuno+absol.
Second one is moltres+natu+skarmory+rapidash.
Third one is beedrill+metang+aerodactyl.

They are in 16 color format and have 64x64 dimensions so they can be inserted into a gba rom.

 

[The 100 Mega Shock]

Your third sprite is certaintly not 16 colours.

Neither is your first sprite, because the 16 colour limit also has to accommodate the background colour, which is set as the first colour in the palette and used to define which area of a sprite is transparent. Yeah hang on you had two separate blacks in the first sprite [0,0,0 and 16,16,16] which was making it read as 17 colours instead of 16.

Thanks for catching that.

Fusions don't really matter that much for the colours, they won't be counted as official sprites and sprites that are worthy for rom hacks and fan-games anyways (unless you were making a game specifically with recolours and fusions).

I'm an amateur spriter. I'm not exactly looking for criticism, but here's some stuff I cooked up in my kitchen.

I'm interested in blobs of junk; and so far I think I've exceeded my expectations.

Sorry they're not in .png. I need to save space.
