Recolored an Infernape...

 

[Sæglópur]

Can someone make me a Denchura avatar please? I'd prefer the background to be like Diamond and Pearl's battleground (colored lines that blend into each other), but with yellow and blue. Put in black text that says "Chipper", but if black doesn't show up well put it in white.

Thanks! :>

I don't have the greatest skills with photoshop, but I did my best! :)

 

[chocolate-kipp]

Heehee, thank you so much! It looks fine, don't worry. I'll credit you in my sig.

 

[Server_Crash]

Finally got around to making a legend. Wow, this thread picked up in activity.

 

[chocolate-kipp]

Looks cool, Crash! (Can I call you that?)

Also, lookie here.

Nidoqueen looks a little flat, but I like it. Made all those in one go, haha. Working on the male Nido line now.

 

[Server_Crash]

Yeah, Crash is better than Server_ or something equally ridiculous. I'm having a really busy stretch, but I'll catch up over thanksgiving.

 

[icay4321]

So, to pillow you just remove shading and add another outline inside?

 

[DragonBreath]

Finally got around to making a legend. Wow, this thread picked up in activity.

That looks brilliant, Crash. Yes, we all need to start calling you that :P
But yeah, the thread really is starting to get bigger. All this pillowing helped :D

 

[chocolate-kipp]

Yes, icay, with the darkest color closest to the outline and so on. Make sure that all the outline is black though! (At least, that's how I do it. Crash does it a bit differently.)

Working on Nidorino.

 

[Sæglópur]

Yay! Glad you like it! :)

 

[Gabe]

Umm, can someone please try to do my request? ^_^

 

[MK Ultra]

Kirikizan in pillow form. I'm not too happy with the torso-blades or the wings, but there really isn't too much space to work with.

Still, I don't think it's too bad for a first try. Thoughts anyone?

 

[icay4321]

I figured I'd do what is most likely one of the easiest ones, the site's mascot:

am I doin' this right?

 

[Sæglópur]

Umm, can someone please try to do my request? ^_^

I will work on one for you, but anyone else who wants to feel free. :P

Edit: How's this?

 

[Server_Crash]

Yeah, that looks good icay, but you need to pillow the smoke too.

I've been saving all of the completed sprites, if we want to make a thread. But can we please make one sprite per canvas please (*ahem* kipp)

 

[chocolate-kipp]

Haha, I'll turn them into separate canvases when I can (tomorrow). We should make a thread though.

 

[shuckles my hero]

Here is my first attempt:

c+c please

 

[Universal Berry]

Could somebody make this looking to his left avatar-sized please?

 

[Energy Storm]

Not bad for a first attempt! A bit more shading around the skull area woulod probably make it look more like a pillow sprite.

 

[Arcticblast]

How fitting.

 

[Server_Crash]

Nice sprites, guys, but can we also remove the color spots from the sprites too. It's minor, but it means that I have to remove the colors, and then make them transparent again, and you guys could do it very easily. Also, I saved Duskull, so that one's fine.

 

[Arcticblast]

The eyes on mine are still there...

 

[MrSuitMan]

Hey guys. How are these trainers I made for a contest?

 

[doominic77]

Did some pillowing. Here are my first two pillows:

 

[Not Scicky]

Haha Mr. Suitman, nice Daft Punk sprites. :A

Anyway, I'm not big on pillow shading but I wanted to try some alternative shading methods. I think my favourite spriting style has always been that of the Mario RPG games for the GBA and DS, so I tried to emulate that in a pokemon sprite.

I redid the shading entirely/replaced colours and all that to make it more... bold? I figured Zuruzukin would work well because he's so cartoony looking, and his official sprite is so damn faded. I'm gonna do a few more but I'm not sure who.
