    I just made a re-vamp of gengar but as somewhat of a grass and ghost type.
    I call it.
    Terragar! :D

    I did something wrong with the background but now i'm going to try and get that fixed to where it has no background.

    It's my first re-vamp or re-color. Whatever you call it.
    Comments!? :D Oh and BTW: I have one without the vines on it so tell me if the vines/wood part adds to it or makes it worse. Thanks in advance.
    What revamp? Looks like a simple recolor to me. And the "vines" don't look so great.

    Oh, a debate over revamps. God, Newbie spriters get these confused with recolors so often.

    Considering both are just pointless forms of ego-masturbation and neither requires a significant amount of talent, I don't see why that's such a big deal.

  • Milotic+Suicune, my first fusion.
    That's not a Milotic + Suicune fusion, it's a Milotic with Suicune colors. I don't see any suicune there.

    It looks more like the green gengar rolled in a bunch of dirt. If you want to give it vines/wood, try not to make it look like anything but the thing you want it to be.

    ...Amen. Revamps are for people too lazy to scratch their own custom poses, and scratching custom Pokemon is for those too lazy to come up with their own pallette, and scratching custom Pokemon with their own pallette is for those too lazy to design their own fakemon. But then again most fakemon designs are weak and horribly cliche; Fakemon are for those too lazy to fully commit themselves to making a complete piece of pixelart.

    What really makes me wince is when people advertise that they can do "ten different types of spriting!" Uh, no. There's ultimately only one type of spriting, and okay sure, there's different styles. But all these wannabe things... recolors, iPods, infernos, mixes even are hardly qualified to be pixelart. My philosophy: if you can write a program to make it, it's not worthy of being called pixelart.

    ...That being said, you can argue that Revamping is spriting within a specific style which is a challenge for anyone, pixelartist or no. Still, I have more tolerance for recolors than all of those other "mass-produced" kinds of sprites, since they teach the spriter about how D/P sprites are constructed at the most basic of levels. Still, though; you can get the same effect through scratching. So you're still very right.

    The term has been modified so much... I think it means Criticise & Comment.

    Anyway, Your sprites were... well, boring.

    Pikachu x Pachirisu is such an overplayed combination. It looks fine, but it's incredibly easy and not all that creative.

    Flying x Buizel; why does it only have one wing?

    Skipping over the Sharpedo. o.o

    Riolu x Pichu, not only is it not all that creative, it also has four ears. If you add new ears, you need to get rid of the old ones.

    Rotom x Cresselia doesn't look completely connected. It looks like several different sprites floating in the same area.

    Either way, it still looks like it has 4 ears. Besides, the fusions probably wouldn't look great even if he removed the mask. Pichu's ears are just too big.

  • Wow. Those are good. Really god. I don't know what to say...

    Thanks. :)

    Here's a new scratch:

    PS3T.png


    It's rather small, but it's supposed to be based off the forest spirits in Princess Mononoke (great animated movie by Hayao Miyazaki.) If I gave it a type, it'd be ghost/grass with ghost as its primary and grass as its secondary. By the way, its legs are folded up (just in case it confuses anyone.)

  • Oow it's small and cute haha.
    Well it is not a bad scratch, but you might move the mouth abit to the left.
    and I'm not to happy with the leave on the head, It's not bad but I dont like it for some reason...
    Not much to say about it, because it's small it ain't to difficult to make it look good.
    So good job and try fixing the things I said, I believe it willl look better that way.
