unceunce, if you had bothered to read the OP -- you would see this is specifically disallowed.I'm not taking credit. I'm just showing how it would look like >.>

Here, this is KoA's colors and Wyverii's Spirte! Just here to show what it would look like. I resized it so you could see it better.
I am editing your posts to remove the recolors.7) Do not alter, fuse, recolor or otherwise modify another spriter's submission – unless the original artist explicitly gives permission.
I think the black parts are too dark. Like, you can't even see the shading. I can identify, maybe, three separate shades (versus four that show up clearly from a regular distance away) - and that requires me to lean up close and strain my eyes. I also think the tail's outline is choppy and the way the right calf (his left) is positioned relative to the foot is horridly awkward. Orange and teal don't make the most attractive mix, either. I am liking the pose (in the upper body, at least), and the backsprite's nice as well (although the upper arms could stand to look woodier).
This really sums up how I feel as well.I like Wyverii's front sprite. It seems like it would be perfect if it was just a liiiiittleee bit smaller. The pokemon looks much bigger in these sprites than I imagine it to be. I guess that can be taken care of later though. But the back pose makes it look like the pokemon is turning to look at the camera, which is a little odd.
KoA's back pose is better, but overall I think his sprites for this dude look too cartoony, even for pokemon. They just dont seem to blend well with what i see in other sprites...if that makes any sense.
Everyone here has done such a great job with their spriting that it's really tough to criticize you guys. Even the spriters that don't get chosen in the end shouldn't let it affect them too much, there isnt a bad sprite in this entire thread.
Wyverii is right. Woodman's arms are not like the arms of a ordinary creature, if you look at it closely. He does not have a full range of movement within his arms. However, in my designs for both front and back I actually accidentally modified him a bit, giving him elbows in the backview picture.Ugh, what are people going on about? I followed the design and if you look you'll realise that there is no possible way that the arms are in any normal configuration. There would be a ball and socket joint for the shoulders as usual, a hinge joint at the upper arm and another hinge joint at the gap between wooden parts. This will probably go for every other sprite in this thread.
Yeah... POLL POLL POLL!How much longer is the sprite submission going on for? Just wondering :naughty: I wanna vote for my faves.
I think your monitor must have a different brightness/contrast than most people's. I noticed it on Rev's shiny and this latest shiny -- they are REALLY dark. I don't think you would intentionally make them this dark, if you could see it. Perhaps you can go to some public computer with internet access and look at your shiny sprites. They are so dark, they almost look pitch black. Rev's shiny IS pitch black on one of my monitors.I really didn't notice anything wrong with the blackish hues on this sprite. ._.
I mean, I kept it lighter than Rev's shiny colors at least.
