My third attempt at scratching. It was really tricky trying to get the fur to look like fur, so I tried dithering. Does it look okay?

The left front paw seems to be at an odd angle, otherwise it looks fine.

okay then, I changed it slightly.

Dithering isn't necessary to make fur look fur-like. Take a look at a Pokémon like raticate or arcanine. See how their fur isn't dithered, but shaded kind of jaggedly? Try shading it like that; it'll look better than the dithering.

Or, if you look on Arcanine's back, the shading is smooth; unless this Absol has a lot of fur like Raticate, then just plain smooth shading can get the idea across, too.
 
Ah, okay. Thanks for that. The fur is meant to be smooth all over except for at the mane. I'll give it a go now.

Sorry so many at once, but I just now got a Photobucket account. Any good? I have an Animated version of the mew sprites, just not with me...I think that the Charmeleons are my best work.

Try making the mouth on the Charizard ummm, not so black? Also, the right (our view) hand is round, it looks like it has lost it's claws or something. WHen you look at the light at the back and leg, it looks like it comes fomr the right, while on other places, like the head, it looks like it comes from the left.
The shape on the Charmeleon's head and right arm is somewhat... weird. I can't put my finger on it, however.

The tail on the first one is too thin where it connects with the body, and the horns are placed too high up on it's head, in my opinion.
On the two last one, I think the two lower horns are too thick.

On the Rayquaza/Charizard one, the tail end is too thick.

I don't like how you made the eyes blue on the 4 first, just my opinion however.

I think you did really well on these, especially the CHarmander, where you used parts of the DPPt sprite to make it look better. However, the mouth outline on the Charmeleon is entierly black, try to change that.

Now, onto my newest sprite:

It was a request in my sprite shop. It now belongs to Kali the Flygon :). Criticism?

I didn't post the transparency one because GS style sprites look fugly in Roar of Time, and probably Axe Murder too. If you want, I'll post it here, for those using a brighter style:

C&C?

There is not really much to say about this, Superyoshi. There is nothing wrong with it. Devamps are fun, but not hard, and so it's difficult to critisize a good one. However, you could try to make it more GSC by changing the outline and eyes etc. to make it more GSC like.

Link.

Newest sprite. It's supposed to resemble a Lucario possessed by the one-tailed demon, Shukaku. If you don't know what the Shukaku is, look it up on google pictures or something. I just want CC:
 
....How did I forget about the outline. I did everything BUT. Thanks for pointing that out, I usually don't forget to change it.

Kinda looks like the shades could be saturated a little more, but not bad. owo And the left most shine is unneeded.

Spiritomb is the easiest Pokemon to devamp, srsly.

*looks at shading on Charizard*

*facepalm* Darn! Shame on me! Normally I'm pretty good at making the shades come from one direction...well, it was my first pixel-over. And it was a while ago. A long time ago, in Paint, far, far away...

Thanks for the review, Bakun! I'll try to fix the mistakes!

I just made a new splice. It's Absol and Dragonite, based off of the two totally different results I managed to get on TCod's Personality test.

Reviews, anyone?

Oh, and here's that animated Mew gif I mentioned, if anyone was interested.
