actually 1337, I already have a vast ensemble of luke fusions
you asked for it
they arent really good most of them, but Im proud of a few of them as they have minimal copy pasting, more scratching:

the treecko and one flareon are custom. Yes the treecko sucks

I'll edit this post here with some more oldies when i find them

edit: so yeah, Im no rookie when it comes to spriting
I had made like a Duskull dex earlier as well, but a large proportion of it is crap, so I wont post it here. It was from when I started spriting, and if you see them you'll see my improvement over time
 
That first fusion needs more feraligatr. It has every other water starter...
Those revamps are good too, I had a shot but I'm no master spriter. Most/all of those are GSC ones aren't they?
 
Hmm well the first one was some request, not my fav one, and I dont know why I put it up anyways
Yeah, all revamps are a frame of Crystal animations, except the Dragonite, which is Yellow.
Im not that good at revamping R/B sprites :(

DwC (yea i remembered your old name bro) has done a lot of talk and reminiscing this past while about the good ol days, yet neglected to bring my name up? ?_?

I guess I'll only post my more famous sprites here in a lil mini-showcase.

The only 3 fusions I did, though I called them hybrids:

<Cool fusions>

Syclant:
<Amazing Scylant sprite>

Revenankh:

<Revenankh sprite>

To this day, I haven't been able to come close to quality as Syclant, in terms of pokemon sprites.

My latest sprites are a teaser for a game I'm developing. These two are minibosses and are actually a cameo from a certain game. Can you catch the reference?

<Great sprites>

I won't make many posts in this thread, but I always lurk in hopes that the quality of the young spriters improve. I'm not Smogon's grandpa spriter for nothing, ya know.

That Scylant is absolutely stunning. Great job on that.
The rest of your sprites are good too. The head things creeped me out though (maybe you're going for that?).

Very nice, very nice. I liked the Lucario/Buizel and Flygon Ampharos the best.

What'd you use for the Aura on Lucario/Buizel and Infernape/Staraptor?
 
@ 1337: It was some request. What I did was make a layer behind it in GIMP, do a splodge of the colour, and then use the smudge tool to radiate it outwards.

@rampardoshit
you bet they arent. For the first one, the outlines are messed up, and the arm and one fin doesnt make sense o_o. Neither does the tail which emergaes from nowhere
The second one, the outlines are better, but the arms and legs are disproportionate

its an improvement though
just keep at it, you'll get there

What's going on with that Dewgong one? The pixels along the outline are messed up.
2: The fin's outline is incomplete. That's a big no-no.
3: The Rhydon tail looks completly tacked on. You have to remove the outline from the start of it so it blends on to dewgong. And a piece of advice here: Shading. If you had blended the tail, you would've had to change the shading so it looks similar to Dewgong's. Otherwise it still would've looked tacked on.

For the second one: Like MG said, the outline's better on this one. But it's still not perfect. As a result of that, it looks kind of like there's a light source behind the sprite.
2: Some more blending problems. Only with the legs though, you did a decent job with the arms. The shading on the arms needs work, but it's a good job otherwise.

Other than that, what MetalGarX said.

If you work on shading, your sprites will be a lot better.

I really need to try GIMP sometimes. Paint is near useless >_>
 
MetalGarX said:
I do all my sprites on Paint, its really all you need
GIMP is only if you like a 100 tabs open with 5 thousand setting for each thing
Click to expand...

GIMP has more functions though. And it looks pretty ^_^
But I have no idea how to sprite in GIMP, so I'll stick with Paint for now.

Never heard of it.

EDIT: I think I'll upload Deoxigas-D (WIP) soon to see if you guys like it.
 
Finally done with band camp. I have blisters on my freakin' blisters.....

I also finally got to put the finishing touches on Milonine. He looks a little more chimaerical than most of my sprites....but hey.

Can't shake the feeling that the head looks wrong...

The head does look wrong, but I can't place why it looks wrong. It looks good otherwise.

My current WIP, Deoxigas-D.

Deoxigas_D_by_Teh133ness.png


This one has no giant arm blade thingies, and I've done some scratching with the arm stripes and the moss on the legs.

C+C. I should be done with the final version tomorrow unless I procrastinate.
 
That's better than your previous sprites for sure. There are still some problems.

On the left (our right) side of its mustache thing, you should've darkned the outline. It looks kind of like it has no outline. The dithering (checkerboard shading) IMO would look better if it was just a solid color. Except for the tusks. Keep the dithering on the tusks.

I'm too tired right now to critique anymore.

EDIT: Another piece of advice: Small sprite + big sprite fusion usually don't turn out too well.

EDIT2: I finished Deoxigas-D. And I made the background transparent. I found a program online :D

Deoxigas_D_by_Teh133ness.gif


Yes, it's a GIF, but there is no GIF color loss.

I have three final versions. I'll give you the main differences.
The first one has no helmet and the chest stripes.
The second one has no helmet and no chest stipes.
The final one has the helmet and chest stripes.

I'm trying to narrow it down to one of them, but I really want to get rid of one of the non helmeted ones.

And would someone post? Nobody's posted for a while, and I'm getting lonely T_T
 
Eh, I may as well post some of my past sprites here. In order from oldest to newest.

I'm particularly proud of the sceptile/infernape evolution line and the elekid/cubone.

Teh 1337ness, the deo-d/gigas is pretty good. The only thing that bothers me is the gray circle on its left (our right). It seems out of propotion or tacked on. Also, my favorite of your three sprites is the one on the left, with the chest stripes and no helmet.

Wow that looks awesome! Nice job! I personally like the first one though.

If you're requesting, please do Arcanine. Please!

Why so serious?

I like Elekid/Cubone too. Very smooth fusion. Sceptile/Infernape was great too. It totally looks like an official sprite.

I ripped the circle thing straight from Regigigas. I probably should try to fix that tacked on look, but I really don't know how.

Thanks :)

When you say Arcanine, what do you mean? Arcanine + Deoxys?
 
Hello, everyone. Just posting to say that I am still alive. I recently have been hooked on two games (Viewtiful Joe (GCN) & MMSF3: Red Joker (DS)), painting a gigantic mound of models, and practicing for a Masters Tourney at GenCon. I haven't sprited in awhile because of this, and I prob. won't for a while longer, but I am still here, lurking in the shadows.
 
Great to know you're not dead. I was worried your computer had blown up or something.

Ugh, I really have to sprite more. I do like 1 thing every 2 days. It's getting boring around here -________________________-
