Jappio Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Firstly I must mention, somehting I've noticed about a lot of these. They are JPEGs, and that is always a bad thing. Please when you save any kind of sprite, save the file type as .PNG. 1, 2, and 3 all have the same problems. The angle they are on is too front sided, most sprites should be from an anglular type shot. The shading on them is too little. I like the dithering on them. 3 Specifically I have an issue with its leaves on top, its looks pretty ugly. With trees the branches atop should be sticking out in all different directions, and should looker thicker than the trunk itself. 4 is a bit odd, what exactly is it suppose to be, a mask or what? Regardless, the shading looks way too light again, and it practically unnoticable on this one. 5 is an odd evolution from a mask (not saying its a bad idea, just that I don't know where its coming from). The border is obviously too thick, the eyes are a bit odd looking (Good if you're pokemon was "crazy", but then the other two don't reflect this). The angle is once again too frontal. The shading is once again not noticable enough, and there is no light source. 6 is dissapointing. To see two scratches, and then for it to jump to a recolor. As a recolor its not too bad, but can't say its perfect either. 7 Shows some of the better shading of the sprites so far, and a better angle. The issues it has are though are a lot with the border and color choices. The border in a lot of areas is too thick, and the shape of this thing is too square in some areas, should be more round. Shading isn't perfect still, is a bit off in places like the lower left leg. Head eye tentacles (I don't know what to call them) aren't proportional properly (the one on the right (our right) should be larger then the one in the back). You also lack shading on your border. At least you know this partially, because normally a person would have used a black border. The key to a border though is you usualy should use both black, and the darker color (and some cases even a third color). This colored border adds a weird crysilis effect to the sprite, making it look as if its made of crystal, or bubbles. Not neccesarely a bad thing, but from what I understand, not the original entent. The artist of this sprite should not be discouraged by the long list of things I had for this. Just because I had a lot doesn't mean it isn't the best so far in my opinion, it just means it had more things I could nitpick on. 8 and 9 are dissapoints again, for you dropped the scratching theme again, and this time went to edits, splices, and recolors. 8 I think looks too much like its original sprite. The head is also a little disformed. 9's recolor screws up some of its border, and is odd for the fact the first form is blue, then its red, and then it goes back to being blue, but a much different shade of blue (would be Ok if there was good reason for these color choices though). The star on its head is not that good, shading is too light and it looks overall awkward. I don't know why you just didn't splice a star on like you did with its claws. 9 also looks lackluster compared to most final evolutions. A final evolution for a starter family should look like a final evolution, not some thing that looks barely different than its previous form. 10's shading is a little off, should be coming from more of a top left angle (light source usualy comes from a corner). Eyes are alos a little weird. It's shape and border are also odd. 11 has similar issue. Due to this, both look kind of "ugly", which hides their cuteness. Also number 11 should be lunatone, number 12 should solarshine, and 13 should be solrock. 12, 13, 14, and 15 are wonderfully done sprites that are beutiful, must have been made by a great artist. Too bad they are from Kirby games. 16 is very interesting, a neat idea. Sadly once again just a simple splice. It first off doesn't look like a full evolution, since it still looks like suddowoodo (due to it being same pose and stuff, with a diffferent pose and size, it coudl look really different). I want to say the flowers look like they are taken from somewhere, since the look familiar (especially since they are the same, and have the same broken border that would come from being taken from a different sprites). If they aren't taken though, they are pretty good sprites, but the broken border is pretty hiddeous comparatively. 17, 18, and 19 are awesome, but once again, from Kirby. 20 is pretty awesome, only issue I have with it is that its eyes aren't in a good position. 21 has the same comment, but is also a bit dissapointing that its only a larger version of 20. Also just noticed, its a little more warped in some areas. 22 is just 20, but made wider. The arms look dang ugly, I can't really tell what they are suppose to look like. The eyes and mouth are also pretty poorly done. I want to say perhaps this one was made by a different artist. Also a quick idea to be thrown out. 22 seems to have no reason to have been made an electric type, and the other two to have not. Perhaps add a dark storm cloud above it, or every change its color to have more of a black thunder cloud look. I want to say the next few sprites look like they are from another game, but since I don't know which game or anything, I'll just assume you did them (if though they are from somewhere else, can you let me know). Also could I know the artist of these, if they are you or someone else. 22 Look really good. Sadly it is JPEG. Same goes for 23, but I personally don't like the name. The only other issue I can come up with is that it probably should be fire/flying, since they both are flying after all. Other than that though, both are wonderful sprites, look very proffesional, perhaps even from a game 24 and 25 are the same as the last two, really awesome sprites. I have no issues with these. 26 is very odd, just a sphere? The shading is weird, not very proper for a sphere. It JPEGyness is very noticeble on this one. Bordering isn't right for a sphere or circle. It also doesn't really show any reason as to being a ground type. Well thats all I have to really say. Any questions on this critique at all, feel free to ask. Also, always save as .PNG please. Also I suggest you specifically say for all the sprites what artists did what. Also if you could, could you inform the artists of our comments, I'm sure they'd like to see what we all think of there thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With pokemon sprites, and most sprites in general, you never have the view of it directly at it. You want to have the sprite look like you are looking at it from an angle. So a simple problem that could be solved by just moving the eyes. With my edited picture of you thing, I show what it looks like with they eyes moved a bit. Yes, I understand of course it will get bigger, most evolutions do. The issue though with your is thats the only change. It looks like the same pokemon, but just bigger. Evolutions normally have more change, something that makes them look different (bigger doesn't look different). Now when I mentioned things being warped, I meant a few pixels seemed off, as if you just stretched the image in a few areas. I have a few of the parts that I noticed didn't look exactly "right" in the image below. Now I know it seems like I'm picking on your images specifically almost, but that's because your sprites show a heck of a lot of potential, and I'd like to help you reach that. So I'm not picking on you or anything, this is all meant as helpful critique. Also I don't quite remember how long it took. It must not have been that long, maybe a half hour.
