Spriters Showcase Thread

Here's a fire type I made from scratch. I call it Leober, and if I ever make a rom hack, this will probably be the fire starter.

Any comments?
 
@ Blackmoonflower - That's a really good design, and well shaded, but I can't help but think that the lines are a bit too dark for the colour scheme. I also really like the pose - it would fit well into a battle scene, and should be suited for a hack. Just... take a look at the line colours. ;)
 
@Asgard: Thanks for the advice, I finally have the criticism I needed to improve. I guess I should have made the first one more like a sprite and less like an avatar. So for the last tree it should have a darker tone on the bright spots? The lines in the tree do look unnatural the way I shaded them, thanks.
Yep, it is the evolution of the other one; I'll take that in consideration when I edit them.

@Kon~: Your sprites look great! The left leg on the left leg looks a little off somehow, but I'm sure my vision is off.
 
Comment on my building anyone?

You need to work on the perspective. The top and the rest of the building don't match up. I'm not sure, but I think it would look better if you added the sides to it. I don't do much with buildings, so I'm not too sure if what I said is right.

@Asgard: I have the black outline because because that's the way it is on the original image. I tried having a darker outline for the whole thing, and removing the black outline but I think it looks best this way. Thank you for the input though.
 
What sides? Can you further expain?

Well, here's the (slightly) improved Fersine. I straightened out the bendy limbs and added little markings but the colour scheme makes them hard to see, so that's what I'm going to look at next, and maybe consider a shiny version, too. Watch this space!

its a swalot evolution and compared to my others, it turned out well.

All I can say is, it looks just a bit flat. Take a look at Grimer, it has form, and the illusion of 3-D:

It... needs to be bigger, and also, you forgot the signature o3o of the Glupin series. Eh... Sorry, there isn't much good to say here... Nice attempt at shading, but the way you did it makes it look like the 'Mon is just flattened against the ground.
 
well it is going into my rom hack so it has to be 64x64...and....ill try to do the 3-D thing and the 030 thing too
 
Tip on making it 3D; all your shading is in straight lines. Use curved ones, keeping a light source. Also, perhaps use a more Swaloty colour.
 
Your second attempt is better, but I think the shading is too saturated. Instead of the blue just getting darker, it should be getting a bit greyer as well. Not only does it make it look less like a pokemon sprite, it also makes it hard the see the lines and details.

It's like this recoloured, highly staturated heracross versus the official sprite:

Here's a spritesheet I made. I tried making a thread to showcase this, but alas, I got no feedback. Hopefully I'll have some more luck here:

I am NOT proud of the trainer in-battle and profile sprites. I prefer overworlds, anyway.
 
Well, I've made a Shuckle pixel-over, which can be seen in my signature. Can I get some comments and critique on it, please, as I might do another Pokemon in this same style and I want to know if my work is any good.
 
I like the pixel-over, but one thing: the outline off the Shuckle's head is a little dark compared to the rest. Maybe lighten it up? I dunno; it just looks funny to me.

They look pretty nice, except the second one does not embody hell. I see that you want to make them all similar but they look too cute and innocent. You should try to make them something bigger. For example, the heaven one could be an angelic cat (wings, white/yellow palette, halo) , and then the hell one can be a fiery dog (red/black palette, sharper, evil looking). As for the space one, You could do something like a weasel, or if you don't care if it fits the pattern, an amorphous blob.

As for the sprites, I think they look nice. The heavenly ones mouth looks weird, and I think you should add the other eye to the spacial one. And lastly, I would suggest scratching the heads again fr the last two, or at least changing the shading. The heads are in a different position than the first sprite, so the shading should differ. But overall they look pretty nice.
