Change that leg...it looks horrible..
you should maybe combine the old and new pal to creat a better effect, the new one is to bright, the old one i to dark

[doesn't matter]

Clearly some people can't take a joke >.>

Also maxxaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, why do you always bypass the character limit. I know you don't do it on purpose, but try and be a bit more mindful of it.

What joke? Man those were SERIOUS sprites.

The real joke is people ignore our actual talent for badly named recolours.

Speaking of which, my thread needs a reply so i can update with an amazing OW sprite :>

 

[maxxa]

max shall reply im nice that way :D

heres frame 2 and an edited frame 1

man that was a tough mix
heres some more mixes that i did like...a few months ago

this is one of my most viewed and faved pieces on deviantart

not too sure about this one but it won me a contest

and swablora :D

Your mixes are both creative and beautifully conducted, a true master of mixing, like a DJ of sprites!

I LOVE the Darkrai/Spiritomb one, you can obviously see what they were, but they look near enough real as a mix too!

 

[maxxa]

wow...thanks im kinda a mixing noob i thought
and could u perhaps post in my thread on acanthite? its kinda..not been posted in in ages

 

[Fox♠]

I've kninda not being there for ages, but ok, I'll do it sometime soon.
I can't really spy any errors in your Bayleaf revamp, keep up the good work.

Since this is titled Sprite Discussion (indicating we can talk of and about sprites, styles etcetra) I'd like to raise the issue of Recolours and the horrible "styles" of recolours.
Things like Fossils, neons, inverts etc are not spriting styles, they are just shoddy recolours and should not receive the attention they do. In fact in all fairness, a recolour is near enough sprite theft, you're just grabbing somebody's work and changing the colour, it doesn't require skill and it certainly should not receive the praise it does.

I mean, recolours are great for beginners, they teach you how to select and even create your own colours, lets you explore the tools of paint/photoshop a bit and sets you up to start editing and then scratching. It does not leave it open for you to never progress and work only with bad renames of recolours that involve no skill and encourage a lack of creativity amongst the pixel art community. I would really like to see a mass boycotting of things like Fossils, neons, shadows unless of course they look like proper fossils (Mud like background with bones edited from the pokemon sprites) or are altered like Dragonfree's shadow pokemon.

If anyone is with me then PM me and we can discuss trying to set up a public front against this insult to talent and progression.

Shadeon xP

Well...

Hope you like it ^^

This my first one..

 

[Anastasia.R]

~@Mismaguis
Ehh ... looks odd ... maybe it's the odd looking body made out of its tail. :P

Hey that's pretty cool Anastasia, I think you've got the shading done pretty much perfectly.

 

[maxxa]

heres 3 possible adaptations on the crystal bayleef animation the first being a lengthened original

 

[Mike2494]

Nice job but you left your some frames:
3rd one in each row

I like the leaf's shading a lot but:how come the sun can shine on its neck, when there is the head??

 

[maxxa]

there is shading where the head would be but i see what you mean..ill darken it slightly
im currently revamping frame 3 also im only using row one

finito!
now i need to animate it like this
"image removed"

 

[Dxlan]

can anyone rate my fakemon??it's a mermaid pokemon:

 

[Shadez]

it's quite nice
only there's no outline which makes it a little hard to seee it
but aside from that it's nice

 

[Dxlan]

thanks,i'll keep that in mind for my next one:)
