The Spriter's Club Reborn

I finished it, but it somehow didn't save.

Exactly. The sprite only had a copyflipped finger for "scratch". Hardly.

A scratch is made from nothing. You also need to consider lighting. Also, there's such a thing called "imageshack".
 
Technically a scratch is made from pixels. You also need to choose colors. Not default Paint colors though. Wha ha ha ha....ha.

I made a New Years resolution not to be lazy but the only spriting I have done recently is for a contest....
 
Just a few kinks and you're done; anatomy's mostly right, it's just a matter of transferring the fine details.

For example, Aerodactyl's head needs to be slightly longer, plus the ridge between the nose and the eyes needs to be more prominent. It wouldn't hurt to transfer the head itself to save you time.

Not sure if it's PURE scratch. I see a different style on every end, and it seems to be a drastic improvement from the stuff in your gallery, especially on the shading on the legbits with the boostthingies; the head doesn't match up well.

It's a sprite, but I doubt the pure scratch part. Did you run any filters on it?
 
I didn't fully scratch it, no. And I got rid of the outline for the bottom because I thought it looked better, and in fairness I have been working on this for months.

Instead of matching the shading style on the legs, always go for the easier option. in this case, that was changing the shading style on the legs instead of slaving away matching the legs with the head.
 
Oh okay, thank you for the advice. (BTW they're not legs they're supposed to be "stingers" or pincers)

I didn't outline the electric pincers because I wanted them to look more electric and less solid.

Okay. I'll try to pay more attention to the details next time.
I might even fix it up a bit. Which is very rare for me. :)
Thanks.
