Moetal Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 @Dairy It looks alright in my opinion. Just need a mouth and it's set. I'd say you should flip the color of the ball around, or give the girl a white swimsuit instead so it is more Voltorb than Electrode theme. Electrode's back hair could use an update now that I compare it side by side with your Voltorb. @Chras 2lewd Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 @Moetal How's this? I matched the hair to the ball as well. Also, I remade electrode's backsprite *edit - updated a little shirt shading, eye, and added ball* Improved old Asakano and Jasongamer64 2 Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 @Dairy Voltorb is good. Old back sprite for Electrode is better. Link to comment
TwilitAngel Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Disregarding what I wanted for the hair, Voltorb and Electrode look good. I'll try again once I'm better at pixel art. XD Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Moetal How should I go about differentiating the shiny then? Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Dairy Standard wise, change the red to blue like what you've done previously, but you can pick another color and/or change the hair color too if you want. When it comes to sprites, as long it looks good/fitting there's no definite rule on what needs to be done. If you want to change her hair into blonde, then change it and see if it looks okay. If you want to change the hair from gray-white to blue-white, then do it, etc. Just make sure it stands out from normal colors. Keep in mind your mouth is red, so unless you reserve a color for red (and reorganize the colors a bit), it's going to turn blue when you change red to blue. These are the ones I will be using. The front Voltorb's hair need to match the back's color. Front Electrode's hair I think you can re-outline it a bit on the left side. Back hair can use a bit more black outline also. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Anyone want to prepare the Mantine, Remoraid/Octillery, and Absol files for me? Apparently the files are too big (in terms of file size, not dimension) each to be used on Advanced Sprite and even breaking it down to pieces won't let me import it. I can still add them in via NSE + UNZL combination, but I really don't have the patience to manually prepare palette synced files at the moment. Link to comment

They all look fine. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Dairy Electrode is importable now. I'm particularly fond of the dirty-blonde shiny one, but they both look nice. The Voltorb's shiny color makes her hair looks really out of place.It's too saturated in my opinion. Dull it down a bit. Normal Voltorb back hair color is fine. Edit: It seems my Advanced Series got messed up somehow. I'm getting errors on every sprite input. Let me see if I could get it to work on another computer or something. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Dairy Yes. How many palette do we have left actually? I kinda of want a third shade of tone on the hair, and/or add some of the white into it for highlight at least. Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Moetal We have room. I just realized i forgot to match the skin tone of the legs to her torso. Here's the fix: Also, I may just be nit-picky here, but the positioning of Electrode's head in the back sprites was bugging me so i moved it over 2 pixels.. I think it looks a bit better. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Dairy Add another tone and white onto the hair of Voltorb. Don't mind me, I'm just transferring files for my other PC for imports. Edit: Done. I'm completely up-to-date now. Just waiting for your Voltorb now before new patch release. Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Moetal I'm not very good at shading, but are these on the right track? axx 1 Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 @Dairy Edit: Change the left side of the front into more strokes instead of just a giant blob. Make sure the shading you use are from the same palette. Can you upload them together in one file in original size for import? 256x64. You can have more than 16 palette in this file. Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Edit: This part? Neat, thanks. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Dairy It's alright. I got it. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 New patch released. Check front page for download link and change log. Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Moetal Shoot.. I noticed the extra color on shiny Electrode last minute. Replacing a blue with white works.. Incredibly sorry about that.. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Dairy Check the file in the new patch. Is it fixed in that? Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Moetal Looks like a grey got kicked out Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Dairy The hair seems to have messed up also now that I look at it closely. Go back and fix up the colors. The shiny's front hair has the white spots because it shares the same palette as your shirt/eye white/etc. Link to comment
DairyProduct Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Moetal Sorry for the wait, I was stumped for a while. I had to make some compromises but I finally got it to work and look alright. Link to comment
Moetal Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 @Dairy Yeah that yellow looks out of place on the ball. As much as I love a blonde, I'd just say you should keep her hair white. Link to comment
