Ryan you know I'm not like that

Alain. I knew only him as an anime exclusive character


EDIT: Also I couldn't draw a Mega Stone to him.

I wish my laptop didn't break

My PC is dead. Until thats fixed I won't be spriting

shouldn't this discussion be posted in the SLPC Discussion Thread >_>

so I did max by using the SchoolKid Male from gen 3 as a base. (Yes I know I did a bad job with the legs and the backpack don't judge me ;-; unless its the judges)

Paul is basically Silver right?

Well, should probably apologize. I was rather sad after something that happened for most of the week, so I let judging go until now for last week's round. I'll try not to let it happen again.

I mentioned this before with the other sprite you did before, but this is pillowshading, and intentional or not, it's not a good thing. This sprite is also a bit large for what is supposed to be a smaller pokemon, and the gray outline color is too close to the gray shadow color. Otherwise, it's cute, but could be better.

Aw, this is cute as well. I can see you put effort into this, though I'd say almost too much effort, and the shading is way more detailed than typical pokemon style.The choice of outline colors on the black and yellow areas is also puzzling, and could have also used some black outline.

This sprite is also pillowshading, but there's something else wrong. Why is this sprite on an angle? I know the tcg card is, but you could have used a program to rotate it and gone from there. You also missed spriting part of the upper thigh on the back leg. The base composition of the sprite isn't that bad, but the shading and the angle kill it.

This sprite is actually rather nice. It has a good balance of colored and black outline, and looks pretty official. The only thing that really gets me is the shape of the one eye, which once I noticed is somewhat distracting.

You also did a good job making this look official, and it mimic's Haunter's typical shading rather well. The details for the mouth look a little squished together, but it's not very noticeable, and the sprite overall is good.

Well for one, this sprite is small. It's nowhere near the typical 80x80. In addition, its head seems even smaller compared to the scale of the rest of it. I also notice the tree lacks a trunk. It's not a really bad sprite, but it's out of proportion and small for no reason.

Kitten wrote:

This is also pretty good, though I'm not sure, but it somehow feels off. I think it has to do with the shape of the face or how the green part follows the curve of the face exactly (on the card it bulges out more). Regardless, outline and shading is quite good, just slightly flawed.

Trainer round;

I can see that you tried, but there's several things wrong here. The hairstyle doesn't match. The puffy scarf thing lacks texture. The gloves don't even have an outline, same with parts of the jacket. I see what you were going for, but it was executed poorly.

Karasugaming wrote:

I always thought Max's design was inspired by them. Anyway, this sprite's a bit of a mess, mostly because the skintone outline is very checkered. The shoes as well look half-made. Meanwhile the hand on the glasses is double-pixelated. The sprite just needs cleaning up.

CrimsonIgnis wrote:

If I had to say, the hair looks off and over detailed compared to anime Paul. The outfit and everything else looks spot-on though, and it's a good translation from Silver to Paul. Just fix the hair some.
A-

Okay.. sorry about that.

Next round will be an open round, meaning you can submit anything so long as it's recent and not overly large, and follows the contest rules.
End date; 8/6

so heres my entry Nuclear Sablevoir both a Fusion and a recolor
enjoy with your eyeholes.



(also all I did with the max trainer sprite is change the colour of his hair, shirt, gave him a backpack and made terrible legs any double pixelation was already there >3>)

(re-uploaded because of transparent background)

OH.
MY.
GOD.
FOMANTIS IS SO CUTEEEEE!

I COULDNT NOT SPRITE IT!
\('u')/

Charizard gen 1 sprite re-done. Hope you like it

Edit: Removed. I'm just going to wait until next week.

"How To: Summoning Lazy Professors"


BB the Beheeyem is what I'm submitting to be judged, not the psychic projection.

Alola Form Ninetales Because why the hell not!

Elite 4 Member Rickylee

So I figured since I didn't finish this sprite during the round it was actually due, I could submit it now lol.


Mega Banette & Mismagius fusion

Man I almost forgot to submit this
Anyways the submission is the mugshot based on the trainer sprite

I'm judging now.. (real-life people are annoying).

Karasugaming wrote:

Not bad, but as a fusion, it's unbalanced. I can see how Sableye might be lacking in more distinct features to add in, but I'd expect a fusion of these to pokemon to be shorter. Also, where the ear connects to the 'hair', the outline is thicker than it needs to be. Otherwise, it's not a bad job with the recolor aspect of it.

Fairly one-for-one with the concept art, but you did a good job regardless. Only real complaint would be how the teal-green head-piece lacks in shading, feeling more flat than the rest of the sprite, as well as there being a few oddly placed black outline segments.

Essix wrote:

This sprite is effectively just a recolor with a changed out tail flame. I can tell because there is still double black pixelation everywhere. A proper revamp would include fixes to the sprite's outline as needed, including anatomy fixes, and generally completely redone shading. Ever the part you did change, the tail flame, does not connect properly to the tail itself.

Professor Morel wrote:

This is interesting, and ambitious, really. Being nowhere near similar to the actual Beheeyem sprite, it's a lot of scratch work. It looks pretty good from away, but on closer inspection there's a few small flaws. For one, the shadow on the legs is very straight, and going along with that, the one leg looks too thick in comparison with the other. And speaking of the shadows and the legs, you also have the lightest shades on the legs as well, which shouldn't be there. The book is meanwhile very simple compared to the rest of the sprite itself, but it's not the main focus so I can forgive it.

This is almost really good. Almost. The texture in the shading is amazing. It uses a few to many colors for a normal pokemon sprite, but this is an open round, so that's not as important. What hurts this sprite is the outline. The outline should be soft and smooth, but it places, like the chest, it's harsh and jagged. The back ear is missing a pixel, and the tails all blend together at one point, and while the concept art also does this, there should at least be a light outline to distinguish them. The muzzle could also use some fixing up, along with removing the awkward line from the hip area. With a few small fixes this sprite could be perfect.

This is almost just a recolor, but I can see you changed a few things. The skirt looks mostly good, though, I'm confused as to why the outline between it and the skin is the lighter color and not the actual outline color. You also changed the pose of the arm, but you didn't move the pompom out farther, so instead of having a normal bent arm, she has a stubby arm. The sprite isn't bad.. but for such an important character it's very close to the base sprite, and needs some fixing up.

Kitten wrote:

Now this is a cool idea. I like what you did with the winding zipper going down the hat in reference to one of mega banette's traits. It's also a little hard to see, but I /think/ it has legs, which helps balance the fusion more. The zipper handle on the chest blends in a bit, but I can't really find much else to complain about here.

Good thing you told me which to judge. Anyway, this mugshot looks fairly nice. One thing that gets me is that mugshots usually use black outline only, all the way around the outside, but I can excuse it as a style choice. What I am a little unsure of is the hair piece. It has the shading of a polished mineral stone, but I think it;s supposed to be a hair clip? Either way it protrudes too far out past the hair line whereas on the trainer it does not.

Next round; Revamp a third gen sprite to the shading style of a 4th or 5th gen counterpart.
<--Example
End date; 8/13

I kinda went overboard and completely revamped the sprite instead of just redoing the shading. Also made it a tad too big, whoops.

Here's the revamped sprite on its own.

Sceptile cause its made its way into my top 10 fav pokemon gen 3 sprite with gen 5 colours

Welp for something i've never tried before I think I did ok

I hope I done it right

Everyone loves Scizor right

Alakazam!
