Banners
I would like 5 banners done for my trade thread.

If your banner is chosen for use, then you will win either one of the prizes. If I pick two or more of your banners for use, then you win both.
 
Hey guys, been spending an unfortunate amount of time on this little guy. Judge it for me please? Made it for the Smash Boards.

Hey, I started this sprite of another of my fakemon ideas (Garghoul) and I like how it started and the direction it's going...... but the shading is all wrong and it kind of needs cleaned up quite a bit.

Anybody want to help me out?

Boss jr. there is one problem with all of your sprites. The lines on your sprites should almost never be more than one pixel thick in one place.

As you can see the first box (top-left) are your current lines though maybe not as extreme. First you should get rid of all off the corner lines as you can see in the top-right box. If there are any right edges as seen in the top-right box you should get rid of them as seen in the bottom-left box. Last and least you should even out the lines as seen in the last box (bottom-right). Now which is the best line.

Here are the real sized lines for comparability.

I would like to make a request. A Electivire and Absol fusion to be specific. And now, i dont want to come off as rude or anything, but would it be ok to request a back sprite to go with it? I hope it is, but if it isnt, then I am sorry, and will love whoever makes just the front sprite anyway.

also did a mankey geodude switch

Adding the wings are too hard... Paper Mario Style is one of my favorite, behind Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.

I did this one a long time ago, but I think I will revamp it. Any criticism?
 
Regarding my request, I just dont think Absol and Vire mix very well. I dont wont to and am not trying to be a dick, but could I change it to a Vire-based fusion with houndoom? Dont get me wrong, I like both sprites, but its not really what i was looking for.

(I like your Brelooms DragonBreath. The manetric is probably my favorite)
 
Yeah, actually :D . I try not to be prideful but I'm quite proud of that image. I hope to show off some more of equal or even *crosses fingers* dare I say... better quality.
 
Yeah the slit is pretty important, as the two halves of the mouth open. Otherwise they look great! How about a Bronzong in Paper Mario style?

What is missing from it? ^___^ I would like to know. I think the mask may not be sharp enough, if that's what you mean? And also I forgot that slit down the middle. :P

Here we are. If you'll notice, your sprite does not have the slit on the face, nor the wavy shape of the head. However, the cartoony style of that game probably doesn't make the second part very neccessary.

I'd like to complement you on your Paper Mario sprites; you have them down pat.
 
Well, I'm not nearly as happy with this one as I was with the Orcano sprite... but at least it's a finished product.... I mean that is unless someone can suggest any fixes/improvements?

Okay, I'll edit Giratina with those changes! Thanks!! ^___^ However, I wanted to finish Cressy first. I think I made the arm wings a bit thin...

It was hard giving them paper-like structures. For Gyarados, I was aiming for a Hooktail/Gloomtail/Bonetail-esque thing, with the whole body being a segmented body. However, the head didn't really turn out well so I added a slit in Gyarados' head to give the effect of paper...
 
@ Tooned- I really like the paper mario sprites, keep it up! :D

@Everyone else who is reading this post-Can you all help me? I have a sprite that just doesn't seem right, can you give me some consturctive cricticizm so I can start off on the right foot?

Thanks!! ^___^

Anyways, I think you should use more contrast between all the shades, as they barely show a difference. For example, the leaves barely show contrast which makes it seem like one color or a gradient. Next, all the shades seem banded to the outline, so I would try to change the shades around. The outline could use some black on the leaves. By the way, where is your light source?
