Can we have comments on our sprites? I'm still kinda new at this and I'd like some pointers/critique

Man in the beginning you sound just like Uncle from Jackie Chan XD

Thanks :D
That was exactly my point young grasshopper.

I would kinda like to see how the judging process worked as well, unless that sort of information is supposed to be confidential and top secret.

Looking forward to the next prompt.

I'd also like to know where I went wrong where I wasn't the only 1st place winner.

Doesn't have to be now though. I'll be fine with it being at any time. I'm just curious

EDIT:

When does the next season start?

Grats to both winners! Can't believe 2 people tied for first lol.

Definitely looking forward to entering more of these.

Awesome! Congrats Fuelbi too!
I also agree with comments. Doesn't have to be much, but just a blurb or two would be great.

Thanks Firus and Spire.

Check out that hot brown important tag on the title.

I'm reading up on how to sprite, so maybe I'll partake in these. Of course observing is cool too.

Thanks you too :awesome:

And again, what constitutes a season? Is it like every round is a new season or is a season like a couple of matches then starting over just like BotW did?

Every round is a season. I changed the wording in the OP to prevent further confusion on that.

DAMN. I leave for 2 weeks...
Congrats to the winners.
Don't worry, Round 2 will be starting up soon enough. :)

For consistency, and due to the holiday weekend, we'll probably be starting Round 2 on Monday, and we should have our comments for Round 1 up by then as well.

Also added a Hall of Fame to the first page.

Round 2 Prompt:

Fuse any first-stage Pokémon (e.g. Pidgey, Totodile -- the Pokémon MUST evolve twice) with any third-stage Pokémon (e.g. Mamoswine, Machamp) and recolor it to be primarily green, of any hue.

The deadline is Monday, December 20th at 11:59 PM.
Do note that Pokémon that do not evolve or only evolve once do not qualify as "first-stage Pokémon" for this prompt.

Also, we don't have Round 1 comments yet, sorry about that -- we'll try to get them up soon.

Anybody mind directing me to a list of first stage and final stage evolutions of pokemon? I cannot for the life of me find one and I need to see them all to get ideas :dizzy:

Alright so here's mine. It's
+
=


Poliwoed? Politag? Wagtoed? Toedwag? I have absolutely no idea what the hell to call this thing and there wasn't any rules against same line splices so I'm going with this.

Not final and suggestions? (like any of you will give me any XD)

Wow and to think it sucks.

But then that's how I've viewed every single sprite I've ever made so eh, I need to stop being so critical

As a little critique, If you made the very top of the leg on the right a bit darker to transition of its body better I think it would look fantastic.

Well I did say it wasn't final and I'm still working on the shading a bit so I'll see



Ok, final. Fixed the shading, recolored the outlines (lol I left the original outline there by accident XD), and plain simply recolored some of the body all together (though it really ain't noticeable).

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around. I came down with a really bad sinus infection and have been nigh wholly absent from the internet, friends, and everything. I'm starting to recover now.

If for whatever reason you don't believe me and want proof, I can cough up a load of phlegm and take a picture.

Regardless, I'll try and do my write-ups, but if I can't get around to it because of my work schedule then I just won't, and we move on. Lastly, thanks for getting the new prompt up Firus!

So I noticed that when I look in the group memberships, I can change my group to skilled spriter, but when I tried it, it didn't do anything.

Is that for any reason or something?
