Is this okay for shiny Skrelp? ;w; I know there aren't any very good sources for its colours atm, and that blue/purple stomach is a weird colour... I'm not quite happy with the red. I'll fiddle with the colours some more tonight and see what I can do to make it look better. I kept the fins the same colour as well... It's hard to tell what colour to make it since they're sort of see-through.

Major updates to Aegislash. Besides finishing the backsprites, I also made some colour alterations and other various improvements.Last edited:
Um! Hello guys. I just found this project and it all seems pretty dang rad.
Finished up the back animation for Talonflame. It was a little awkward with how I decided to animate the front haha. I'm going to move onto Noivern.
This particular sprite caught my eye because it's beautifully pixelled but, well, it's been animated so stiffly! I'm afraid I just couldn't leave it be.
So, here's a super quick and very messy edit. I just added some flex to the wings, and also upped the framerate to 6 rather than 10 to match the other flying pokemon. I thought it'd be best to post here first before cleaning it up.
-I WOULD be willing to recolour animations, but my version of photoshop has a broken animation feature ;____;
Harrie I agree with princessofmusic, it's a little TOO fluid for a Pokemon. It actually makes it look a little off - but as just a normal sprite, it looks REALLY good o:
yo so is anyone doing shiny Tyrantrum because I just saw it and that thing looks BEAST yo. I can see if I can recolour the animation, and see what I can do? I guess it'd be extra cool if I could recolour animations, that'd save a lot of work for everyone, I think
EDIT: I can't even open gifs as layers anymore o___o I could have sworn I could do that before on this same version. Oh well, I'll still do it \ o /Last edited:That's lovely Harrie, sadly I left the animation rather rough on purpose. Gen 5 Pokémon tend to have very few completely redrawn frames and use stretching and rotating quite extensively. Feel free to up the rate from 10 to 6 though if people feel it's better. I personally thought it was too fast considering Talonflame's ingame wing flap speed.
I could use some help on the back wings. It came out rather awkward.
The back wing on the left still gets reversed on the downstroke. I recall that some people pointed it out when the animated sprites were originally posted.
EDIT: I have Photoshop CS4, so I could edit and recolour everything manually if necessary.
just pick one from the chart lol. theres a good amount available for animating
and Legender you prob should hold off on makng the animated tyrantrum shiny till i finish up editing it ok? Would be a waste of time if you had to do it twice.Oh uh
I personally use GraphicsGale to sprite. As far as shinies go, it's just a case of swapping the palette file.
quickest way to do that is to open one frame up in photoshop, recolour that frame, then open it up in GG and swap the palettes. That way you only have to recolour one frame, and you can adjust the colours in the palette panel.GraphicsGale actually looks like a really easy program to use o: You can just open the animation and swap the palette with the one from the single shiny frame then? That sounds really simple and convenient and easy~
Ahh yeah, that's right, those animations are still being tweaked~ Will still do sprite though
EDIT:
Last edited:Just hatched a shiny absol and on the way to looking at it in shiny form mega evolve, I found a shiny Flabebe! (I can't even believe my luck!) So if needed, I can upload a pitcure of it.I can do recolors of animations really easily if I know the colors to use. (Computer has been laggy the past few days but it's decent now.) I've got Photoshop so it's not difficult.
I'm gonna start now on doing some shinies. Guess I'll do Quilladin...? And whatever else on the sheet I can do before my computer decides to screw me over again. loledit:
So I recolored Quilladin. The nose looks a little weird because the shades are kinda overlapped for different parts that were a different base color (which were similar in the original but not so similar in the shiny). To an extent, it's the same with the... Um... Ears? Horns? Spikes? Err whatever they are. lol If you think it needs another shade of dark yellow in there instead, I can do that. This was just a quick pallet swap.
I'll try to do more later. I guess Froakie next. (I'm just kinda going down the list here. lol)Last edited:Made an animated Mega gardevoir. I can't seem to decide what other movements I can give it, so can you guys give me suggestions?
I'm planning on adding Wobblebun's gardevoir to the gif too, as the dress in his version would look good if I make the gif look like its swaying side to side.
I honestly can't believe your luck, RNG abuse isn't even possible yet in gen 6... oh well, but congrats. And iirc, I think we already have a shiny absol sprite... I dunno about shiny Flabebe though, but if not, give a pictureLast edited:You don't even know how many people I've seen on Facebook saying they've gotten shinies... I haven't gotten one in gen 6 yet. XD Seriously, some people are so lucky. I'm genuinely surprised we have images for so many Pokemon's shiny forms already.
Anyway... Gardevoir's animation is nice so far but I think the skirt needs animating in some way... It feels like just a random white blob thing that doesn't move, and Gardevoir is just sitting behind it or something. Like, it feels like the upper and lower body are completely disconnected, and I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be like that. Basically, the overall figure could look more connected and natural, instead of the upper and lower body seeming so disconnected.
Mega Gardevoir hasn't been approved for animation yet, and an updated version was even posted yesterday.
Also I was sort of planning on animating that one as soon as it got approved, but I don't mind you making an attempt as well. yamakirisei's suggestions are pretty spot on, I'd recommend taking a look at regular Gardevoir's animation in order to get the dress movement right.Last edited:So the only noticeable difference is the bottom part of it is mostly Indigo looking.Attachments
Well we already had a photo of it in the other thread for shiny 'mons, and the colours look completely different in both pictures x____x Your photo looks very very blue, which I think isn't as accurate - it's supposed to be more purple, isn't it?Users Who Are Viewing This Thread (Users: 1, Guests: 4)
