I'm working on spriting again and I might need a bit of help.

October 4th:
I believe I am getting quite good at spriting. Now, requests are open as long as useful criticism is given along with it.
There are exceptions, though:

I'm doing requests but I'd like some constructive criticism in return. Unless everyone's already said what I could fix or there's just nothing wrong with the [sprites] that you can see, in which case, constructive criticism isn't needed.

(July 26th:)
Today, which was when I started spriting, I've only made four, but it felt like more O.O

One thing you should know is that I love doing Pokemon using moves. Here are the five that I created:

A Venomoth using Sleep Powder...

Dragonair--IronTail.png

A Dragonair using Iron Tail...

Ampharos--PowerGem.png

An Ampharos using Power Gem...

...And a Camerupt using Eruption.

I also made an animated Umbreon using Dark Pulse.

I have one sprite that isn't a Pokemon using a move, and that's a Ledian/Scizor splice.

Any suggestions?

The Dark Pulse looks great!

But I think you should make the the Power Gem stand out a bit more, because I didn't really see it at first.
Also, the Iron Tail is a bit plain. I mean, it's just Dragonair's tail recoloured metallic.

Other than that, the sprites are great. :)
 
Re: Working on spriting again

Hm... thanks. The Power Gem and Iron Tail I was making because I thought they would be interesting, but it turned out I didn't know how at all. ^^' thanks.

And I also made an Espeon spliced with male Nidoran.

EDIT: Also, more moves. Yanma with Supersonic and Dunsparce with Dig.

They look nice! How about a Charizard using Fire Blast and a Lucario using aura sphere? I bet they'll look nice.
 
Re: Working on spriting again

Sorry, but if you want to request sprites from me, you'll have to do it here. Thanks for reminding me of the Lucario--AuraSphere though; I started one ages ago and never finished it. I'll post it here later, but if you want the Charizard--FireBlast, request it in the thread to which I linked.
 
Re: Working on spriting again

However, I did finish the Lucario--AuraSphere that I started on Sept. 4th last year:

And a Linoone, using Surf:

Due to my vacation I haven't been spriting much, but I did do this:

SnubbullDP.png


Anything to fix? It won second place in a contest compared to my sister's Marowak revamp, and I wanted to see if there was anything I missed.
 
Re: Working on spriting again

Well, kinda bump, I guess. Just two little splices. The first is good, I think, the second... it's hard to splice Umbreon with Ninjask.

One thing about the second, though....

You really don't want to know the story behind this.
of course, that only tempts you to ask

EDIT: And a recolored Meganium, for really no reason at all...

that link is broken

I must have deleted the request shop because no one was requesting. But you can request here if you give useful tips on my sprites.

That being said:

My Other Art Thread said:

And to make this post have more use and stuff to crit:
