Resourcefulness: Pillow Sprites

And here's a comparison of all the Snorunts.

Snorunt really doesn't take kindly to being pillowed...which one looks best?
 
Here's a quick Linoone just to say I did something other than Luxray tonight-

Shinx and Luxio are giving me spriters' block, sorry.

@Chocolate- The middle one is best, IMO.
 
Nice Linoone, the colors remind me of hot chocolate for some reason. O_o

Alright, I'll wait for a couple of the other spriters' opinions before I put it in the OP.

/off to make some hot chocolate
 
^Yeah, that reminds me of hot chocolate too...^

Here's Gabite for you all. Rates?

Now for "Brokenchomp"...

EDIT: Okay, no replies...Here's Brokenchomp anyways...Rates?
 
Oh, whoops. Done.

Glalie...ugh. The darkest shade of the horns is also the outline color. x_x Turned out okay though, I think.

Glalie has pretty eyes.
 
Torterra, looking like a boss as always.

Sorry kipp, but would you mind putting Torterra as my favourite in the OP? Thanks again.
 
Damn... more sprites to process. Kipp, that rule is to stop most people from posting sprites that *should* be redone once the games come out in the US/UK. I'll have the sprites updates in a sec, but I plan on using the BW snorunt sprite, because it will be mandated in the springish, whenever it really comes out.
 
@Mike I'll add it into the OP once my fingers warm up a bit/unfreeze. :>

@Crash I'm not sure I know what you mean, since when you say "redone" I remember that quite a few Japanese games had their sprites changed in the English version (Green and DP did this).

Do you mean that since BW will be the most up-to-date sprites by Spring, I should keep doing those sprites?
 
I mean that 'most likely' the american BW will keep the same sprites, and we don't really want to have a stockpile of outdated sprites that just need to get redone. It is tricky to enforce this rule to people for a) make your sprite changing argument, or b) people who refuse to acknowledge BW until it is released where they are.
 
You don't say...And we're the ones creating them.
th_EnteiPillowedFront.png

Anyways, here's Entei, I'm incredibly iffy about it & I think it needs improvement. Rates?
th_AbagooraPillowedFront-1.png

EDIT: Reposting Abagoora, because after looking through Server Crash's Album, I saw that my Turtle guy wasn't fully transperant (Had white Background between Abagoora's right hand & body), so I've fixed that now. :)
 
Okay, I get what you mean now, Crash. I also used the Platinum sprite for Gallade since I thought the other poses were boring, sorry.

Entei looks good, but the brown looks very flat. Make it a shade darker perhaps?
Raikou's white part only has two shades from what I can tell, which makes it look very flat as well, if it doesn't have a darker shade then you might have to make your own (that's what I did with Charizard since its wings only have two shades).
Abagoora still looks awesome, but the light blue part in the center doesn't seem to have any shading. Fix please?

And lastly, Rawbi, I LOVE that Farfetch'd but the yellow-green part on its belly and wings looks flat. Whenever it looks too flat, I recommend adding the next-darkest shade and going from there. I had to do this a ton with Registeel.

I'll edit the OP with reservations/Torterra, but I'm gonna wait until the sprites are changed slightly before adding them. Sorry if this seems rude D:

EDIT: OP is updated, and yes, I actually DID give critique for once. :B And lookie here--

Now I'm reserving Hippopotas/evolution.
 
Kipp, Entei only had three shades of brown, so it couldn't look any more reounded, with Raikou, I should bump the white parts down a shade, as these parts look really flat, so I should get to work on that, & Abagoora only had one shade of light blue, besides, I made it a while ago, I only reposted it, because it still had a bit of visible white background, & it was evident when looking through Server Crash's album.

And no, I didn't double post, some random dude called jimbetty had a post between those two posts & it was obviously deleted...The dude made some dumb post about how the pillowed sprites can be viewed at Server Crash's album, & that was what that "You don't say" comment was aimed at...
 
"(that's what I did with Charizard since its wings only have two shades)"

You might have to make shades yourself for Entei and Abagoora, sorry. If you don't want to though I'll just add 'em to the OP.

I didn't even notice your comment to him, whoopdeedoo.

th_RaikouPillowedFront-1.png

I bumped Raikou's White Parts down a shade & added a shade to the blackish head part. Rates?

I tend to stray away form creating shades for Pokemon, but I'll see what I can do.

Click to expand...

Farfetch'd only has two colors for its wings and belly... Anything else I could do to fix it?
 
Actually, Farfetch'd has four, but two of those are used for the outline and for some other parts.

<- Colors. They may look out of place if you use them though, and if they do look too bad, then you'll probably have to make another shade, or I'll just have to deal with it. :B
