Smeargle's Studio General Thread: Spriting and Banners go here!

[Albinoloon]

Thanx! I'll take it all into concideration when I re-sprite it! :D

 

[BlueMoon]

I *attempted* to remake the new blue monkey pokemon seen here: http://serebii.net/blackwhite/pokemon.shtml

Its one of the few 5th gen pokemon that i like, and i tried to make the little fella more animated :D

Hiyappu!!

 

[Boss jr.]

So, are the pokemon back sprites 80x80 too?

Edit: Doing a sprite sheet for Orcano... still need to do the back sprites though. Below are the male, female and shiny sprites (male on the left, female has a slightly shorter dorsal fin.)

I think I should make the (M)/(F) differences more obvious.

Edit2:

Redux

Now as I said the differences are much more prominent. Views? Opinions? ......... Anything?

Edit3:

Edit4: Well, finally did the back sprites for Orcano.....

I'm very seriously considering starting up a server to playtest fakemon on..... though if there's already one that exists that I could get them on that would be much more to my preference.

In any case let me know what you think of the sprites.

Umm...could I request a Shaymin avatar? Non-shiny, thank you.

Requesting a title banner for a new trade thread.

Title: The Wifi Pokespot

Feel free to be creative, but it must have something of a Pokemon Colosseum/XD theme. Must include at least Wes (main character from Colosseum), and a Houndoom (my favourite Pokemon).

Hello! I finished your banner, usually I would send straight to PM, but It turned out so well, that I wanted to show it here!

 

[reyscarface]

(looked better before i uploaded it on smogon, it pixelated it so much)

but whatever, if you want one just tell me, i have more free time than i expected.

 

[DanielG]

Just curious, but what program did you use to make that?

 

[reyscarface]

GIMP

 

[Alexa888]

Requesting a banner for my Tournament, UU Wi-Fi Tournament.

Needs to include the text: UU Wi-FI Tournament and include Heracross and Alakazam.
Also, a version without the text would be nice.

 

[reyscarface]

Feel free to not use them if you dont want to

 

[ungulateman]

Just a quick recolour. I wonder if you can work out whose colours it is...

 

[wombakage]

New Sprite:

Somehow that looks more like a vagina than the original

AKA well done


I wanna get into spriting; any guides for it?

 

[Jordan14]

Looking for a banner maker for my thread. Please post in there if you are interested.

 

[DanielG]

ready and willing. =]

 

[doominic77]

Look in the Smog issue 8 then 9 then 10.

 

[Klutch]

Looking for someone who can make Pokemon (the anime) themed banners for my thread. Payments are negotiable (includes pokemon from my thread, credits, breeding projects, EV training, etc.). VM/PM me if you're interested.

 

[Tooned]

The colors keep making me think this is JPEGed (oh wait it is.... ) Save it as a PNG next time because it makes it hard to critique.

The problem I have with this sprite is:
1. The lack of black shades and an outline.
2. The inconsistent light-source.

The belly looks banded, and the tail makes it look like light is coming from the center. Yet, the lightest shades on the belly also seem to come from the middle. Can you clarify where your source of light is?

 

[Boss jr.]

I'll have some time tomorrow, I'll see if I can't clear up the lighting issues....

What do you mean by "Lack of black shades"?

Outline is hard because the base color is black so they tend to blend together but I'll see what I can do.

Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it :D .

 

[AFB32]

kinda simple being just a recolor but he remonded me so much of rotom that i had to make him rotom colors

first gen 5 addition to the crobat dex then i put the last three crobat srites together just to show how he keeps getting fatter and changes shades of purple every time

 

[Boss jr.]

Question: Is there a general rule as to where the light source is in the pokemon sprites?

 

[DarthChake]

I have a request for an avatar...Sorry if this seems a bit odd but, I would Like a shiny gallade mounted on a kingdra. Make it look as if it's charging something, and in stead of blades on Gallade's arms...put an ignited lightsaber hilt on each with blue blades. The background can be the ocean. Special thanks to the person that humors me.
