They look good, nothing wrong really. Maybe you should try something a little more challenging like a recolor if you know how to. If you don't I'll pm you the link to a recoloring guide. :D Keep up the good work.

I'm sorry, but I have to be blunt: your sprites are utterly crap, devoid of any imagination or skill and show absolutely no effort.

The first one frustrates me to no end, though I suppose you aren't fully to blame; idiots have been trying to pass this sort of sprite as a true fusion for months. Siamese Pokemon require no talent whatsoever to make. They're just flipped and copied sprites joined down the middle. They look ugly and are ridiculous by concept. The whole point of spriting is that the end result should look like something that could appear in a video game (in artistic terms, mind - nonsensical sprites are still fine so as long as they look good, which is why Pokemon fusions exist at all). Something like this would *never* appear in a Pokemon game - the lighting doesn't match, it's far too symmetrical and the join looks unnatural.

The second one is just pathetic. All you've done is moved two sprites next to each other and called it a new creation. You've not edited either sprite in any way; not even a recolour, which in my books doesn't even count as spriting in the first place. I suppose you can't criticise the sprites themselves, but that's because you haven't changed them at all.

The third one... you've made the outline slightly larger. And not all the outlines either; just the edge of the sprite. That does not count as spriting either.

I'm just glad I can't see your fourth sprite. Please, before you make any further abominations, go and read some spriting guides. At the very least find out the definition of spriting. I could link you to a dozen brilliant guides written by people with years of experience editing sprites, but I fear that will invoke the wrath of les modérateurs.


Edit: Oh, and it's "There's an art gallery for pokefan6?!". If you're going to fail at sprites, you might as well make an effort with punctuation.

;_; and an ORIGINAL title, don't just copy off other people's *ahem* (mine). This thread as a whole makes me sad, sprites that aren't from scratch sadden me even more, because you don't need a WHOLE NEW THREAD to post random crap that doesn't take any originality to make. OMG I MAEDED KULURZ NEW shouldn't give you the right to start your own thread, I think there should be a thread where sprites are posted, instead of having random and extraneous threads dedicated to such a wierd 'art' form. :x

The first one is called a siamese sprite. They are also used in popular shops in Sunyshore Market. Good, although I though I saw it before...

The second one is a little ... easy. I know a spriter who does it, but I think he edits the sprites too, ask Dark Typhlosion, or look at his shop in my sig.

The third sprite is I think is supposed to look like that. I can't see the 4th one.

If you want to try simple spriting, try recoloring. Go to [url]dragonflycave.com/recoloring.aspx[/url]. If the url doesn't work, move around the a s p x to like apsx, asxp, axsp, etc (keep the a). Recoloring is the simplest form of common spriting, then move to de/revamps, then check around the shops for more types of sprites. Tip: when you want to open a shop (if), be good at splices/fusions. :wink:
