• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

It may be pixels, but I'm not so sure about art...

Hi, welcome to my pixel art thread, with a lovely, low-self esteem title. 8D So yeah, shield your eyes before looking at this crap I conjure up in MSPaint. Enjoy. ;D


Note:
This colour indicates a new piece. Hover over asterisks (*) for more information on the pieces.


Fakemon.

These are fake Pokémon, made from pretty much scratch.
I definitely know I need to work on my skills, but I guess they're okay.
Oh, and (even though you probably don't want to) please don't ask to
use these in your hacks/games/role-plays/whatever, because the answer
is going to be "no," I'm afraid.

Scratch.

Fusions.
Splices, mixes, whatever.

These are simply when I take two or more
Pokémon and merge them together, generally
including some scratch work and recolouring/shading.
They're no amazing works of art but I enjoy making them.
Oh, and I've got quite a few n_n.

Pixel Overs.
Traces.

Basically, I get some work, generally Sugimori Art, and,
basically, convert it into pixel art, according to the palette
from the Pokémon's (most recent) sprite.

Revamps.

Old sprites, renewed to the standards of the most recent
versions of their sprites [no, not only GSC and back].

The Adventures of Monokid.
The result of boredom~!

The white blob, Monokid, is travelling the land to
retreive his colour from the evil painters.
The sun, Sunny, helps him out and stuff.
I realise the mockup lacks hearts, health, points, etc.

It looks nice. On the second sprite box, though, there's kind of a lot of shades.

Also, you could maybe post images with spaces in between? It makes a big scroll bar.
 
Third from the right is amazing. You must have worked really hard on that one.

Thanks. As for the "second sprite box," which I assume is the green alien thing, I don't think I agree with you on having too many shades. I think it's a nice balance. But whatever. And yeah, thanks Alurune for fixing that (and I'll fix the iaza things asap, thanks for that). Thanks again, dragonair.

Thanks. It did take some time, but I'm afraid I can't take too much credit as it's an edit of this. Thanks though.

No new content atm, but watch this space.
 
And this space is now filled. :D

I present to you Sherbaa's evolution:

Tox, the Poison Candy Pokémon.
Type: Normal/Poison
Pokédex Entry: It leaves a trail of poisonous sherbert wherever it goes. Only fools try to eat the candy that grows on it's fur.

Okay, so I'm refining and making Monokid into a game, still called The Adventures of Monokid. For info, check here:
--> click me <-- :]
bye_bye__colour_essence_by_sphericalice-d36h5od.png

This is a screenshot from the beginning cutscene (before any text has been added, mind you), showing Monokid as a baby, with his Colour Essence being taken away by the Painters. The cutscene is more of a storyboard, similar to in Kirby.

Just some of the sprites. :D

For Monokid, I would recommend having it so the enemies react differently defending on what color paint you use.

Like, say, a bull enemy who goes insane if you hit him with red paint.

What are the colors, out of curiosity?

For the painters, assuming they're based on the seven colors of the rainbow I'd name them... Crimson, Nora, Jonquil, Jade, Marin, Diego, and Violet. And Blake and Wyatt if you need those too. Naming the final boss Roy G. Biv probably wouldn't be a bad idea either.
 
Um, hi. I am pretty sure this is too old to bring back, but what the heck. I saw you with Seq (I am not on those forums; I just like sprite shops.) You should be FAMOUS! Anyway, just had to talk about how I've seen you. Yay. Monokid :grin:. I wanna see it if it gets to be a real game!
