Ever see all those amazing sprites in people's Signatures and all over Sprite Shops? Tired of asking people to make them for you? Want to learn how to make them yourself? Well then this is the place for you! So, how does this work? It's quite simple, really. Just post here in the thread saying you want to enroll in a class using the form below. A teacher will then take you in as their student soon after. Your teacher will be responsible for helping you improve your spriting techniques. You may only take 1 class at a time. Some classes require you to complete other classes, though. At the end of every class, your teacher will supply you with an exam. If you pass, you may go on and take other classes. You may, if you would like, take classes via VM, PM, and this thread. This is so what is easier for you. You still must enroll through the thread. You may do this if you want privacy, so no worries. It is also easier to realize the bold notification at the top of the page. If you feel you already have the skills to pass a class, you may ask for an exam. If you pass, you may skip the class and move on to another. If you want to suggest something to us (like having a certain class, feature, etc.) feel free to PM teamplasma . When you have passed 5 different classes, you may apply to become a teacher. You will only teach the classes you have passed, and may or may not be accepted. ***Classes that have "N/A" under Teachers do not currently have a teacher and therefore are unavailable as it stands*** Classes & Teachers

May I join your wonderful school Syra?
Starting from the basics, basic recoloring |
I'll take Devamps, like I did in the old school.
|
I will repost my enrollment.
I will like to do Infernos I am good (but not that good) at them already so let's see how it goes |
i want to resume my advanced recoloring class.
http://i39.tinypic.com/zjwbyt.png http://i40.tinypic.com/211p7aq.png http://i43.tinypic.com/6eq7vb.png Here's my last assignments. I think im ready for an exam now. |
Finished my first Basic Coloring assignment, and here we go!
Eevee colored as Gible: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...eeveegible.png Thought it came out pretty well, I feel as though some colors could have been used better, but it was my first one! Pichu as Squirtle: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...husquirtle.png Looks pretty good, wasn't able to match Squirtle's underbelly/shell area to Pichu at all so I just left it out. Mudkip as Torchic: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...kiptorchic.png Probably my best one, colors are very on par, IMO. Bring on Assignment #2 :) |

Here is my work from the other thread:
http://i39.tinypic.com/10za6ts.png I was going to put a hose in its hands, but it was too hard for me. If you're wondering where the colors came from, I got them from a Fireman Sam picture. http://i40.tinypic.com/14obmv5.png Did I make you like Dragonite that much more again? http://i43.tinypic.com/m7gw8z.png I tried putting flowers on it, but it was yet again; too hard. Although, I completely forgot to get them off Bellossom, so I'm to blame. I got the colors from a Spring painting. The body is the grass, the leafs the sky and the seed the leafs off a tree. http://i39.tinypic.com/23tpq2w.png It's a... * drum roll*... Combusken-themed Combusken! :trollfaec: Seriously though: http://i40.tinypic.com/2viikhk.png A golden-themed Combusken. |

Sorry for the delay, guys, but now we're ready to get rolling.
DJ Bird Excellent. You're probably familiar with the concept of Basic Recoloring, but here's a little video I made that details the process. Assignment #1 This assignment contains 3 tasks. 1. First of all, I'd like you to recolor Tailow with Cyndaquil's colors 2. Drilburr as Hoothoot 3. CHOICE ASSIGNMENT: Recolor one of the three Sinnoh starter pokemon as another one-- you pick. Quadcentruo Good, good. Okay, I don't have a video for you (yet) but here's how it works. Devamping is a process in which you take a Gen III, IV, or V sprite, and knock its graphics down to Gen I or II. This is Devamps I, which is more basic in that you don't completely devamp it, but rather you work with its colors. The most important thing you need to know for devamping is this-- your resulting sprite should have exactly 4 colors: 2 shades, black, and white. How you go about making it this 4 shade combo is up to you, but I might have a video soon as to how I'd recommend it. Assignment #1 This assignment contains 2 tasks 1.Devamp the following pokemon a. B/W Purrloin b. R/S Totodile 2. CHOICE TASK: Devamp a Bidoof sprite from any game of your choice. teamplasma Okay, you can take the exam if you want to try to test out. If you fail, you must take a full course. EXAM Pick one large pokemon (you should be able to judge what qualifies as "large") and make it into ALL of the following-- a. Fiery b. Monochrome c. Aqua d. Grassy e. Poisoned (this one's new-- just think purple) Platinummaster1 http://i39.tinypic.com/zjwbyt.png Spyro the Dragonite: Skin's a bit too bright for my taste. III Espeon: I'm actually not sure what this assignment was, but it looks pretty good :P II+ Seviper: Also don't know about the assignment, but it looks alright to me. II I believe you are, in fact, ready. EXAM Color any 5 pokemon you want (but no repeats) to look like the Ginyu Force. It doesn't have to look exact, but you should focus on getting the skin colors right. Jared http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...eeveegible.png Looks all well and in order. II+ http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...husquirtle.png Yeah, sometimes there aren't enough hues on one or another pokemon. This is just what you have to do in those cases. II http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...kiptorchic.png Good choice! I think this one turned out really nicely. I- Assignment #2 This assignment contains 2 tasks 1. Color Swap: I want you to recolor Dragonair and Gallade with each others' colors. 2. CHOICE TASK: Recolor Fraxure as any Gen V pokemon. NismoZ Your sprites are definitely passing quality, but I need an account of classes you've taken and passed (if any) before I can let you teach Revamps. This wouldn't be a problem if you were offering to teach a class I wasn't teaching at the moment, but I AM teaching revamps. For now, though, EXAM Among the 251 pokemon in Gen I and II, pick a straight set of 5 (ex. 47, 48, 49, 50, and 51) and revamp all of them. Lloyd http://i39.tinypic.com/10za6ts.png Very inventive, I especially like the hat added. It could use a little tilt, though, so it goes at an angle like GurrDurr's head. It's missing something, though-- it's not actually holding anything. You could have kept the girder, or you might have tried scratching a ladder, but at least put something. II http://i40.tinypic.com/14obmv5.pngEh, it's not something I'm getting overly excited about. One of my main problems is that the shades on his belly aren't light enough. You might notice that Platinummaster1 also had this task. I think he got the belly right, but the skin's a bit too light. If I were to combine your sprites, it would look ideal. III http://i43.tinypic.com/m7gw8z.png Mmh. I understand where you're getting the colors, but it's not coming across as Spring as much as it could. I think, overall, a lighter shade of green would have sufficed for its body. III+ http://i39.tinypic.com/23tpq2w.pngWhat kind of crap is this!? It doesn't even look like you did anything! V-- :trollfaec: http://i40.tinypic.com/2viikhk.pngThis was actually a brilliant idea. It looks like a statue. I Assignment #3 This assignment contains 5 tasks 1. Serperior as Kaa (from The Jungle Book) 2. Galvantula as a Tarantula 3. Bodybuilder Machoke (get creative with this one. Try scratching some tattoos on its arms, for instance) 4. CHOICE ASSIGNMENT: Make an alternate shiny version of Yamask (as in, give it new colors that make it look like it would be a legitimate shiny version, even though it's not) |
Just a request, can you put your grading system in the topic, or at least switch to letter grades so we understand them easier?
EDIT: Started my next project as soon as I got it (A+ for enthusiasm?) and I didn't feel like double posting so here yah go! I have.... mixed results on them. Dragonair colored as Gallade: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...airgallade.png Thought this came out decent, after a little bit of struggle with what color I should make the wings and beads, I think I got it right. Gallade colored as Dragonair: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...edragonair.png Oh boy... I had a lot of trouble on this, Gallade had more shades than the Dragonair, and I guess I need to work on compensating for that... fail me already ;( Fraxure colored as Vannilish: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...evanillish.png I got a laugh outa this when I finished, I think I did a good job matching up the colors and such, I basically looked for something I wouldn't picture Fraxure as and tried to make it funny as possible! |
Alright, I've been chosen to be the teacher for trainers and retypes. So, if you want to take those classes, you can feel free to now.
|
I will post the sprites of my latest assignment:

Quick Question: In that one pokemon with all of those on it of that one pokemon made multiple times with that inferno :D
-Jessica Simpson |
Quick announcement: I have appointed Idno58 as the substitute teacher. He will be teaching any and alll classes that do not currently have a teacher. Idno, if you wish to teach a class that does have a teacher, you will have to have passed 5 classes like everyone else, but for now, I'll make the necessary changes when I can.

http://i41.tinypic.com/ifa9mw.png
Here's My Exam. |
Here is my exam, You didn't answer my question so I took it my way. Sorry. But yes, I do feel confident in this, but that is usually when I FAIL.
http://i40.tinypic.com/xn4wn7.png |
Jared
http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...airgallade.png Looks great. II+ http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...edragonair.png Never! This looks nice, actually. I have an issue with the hood. It looks like you didn't recolor that one. At the very least, you should make it a darker shade of the same hue, but don't just leave it. It's a minor detail, though. III+ http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...evanillish.png Ha! That looks really cool! I The Spirit of Time http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...5/Geonoone.pngThis one worked out really well for you. I really like the mask effect. I- http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...995/Ledude.png Yeah, in the end, this one doesn't look that much different from the original, but you did what you were supposed to. II http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...995/Flible.png Hm...I like it, but there's that blue rim on its ear. When doing this kind of editing, you can't keep colors the same. You ought to have made it orange or something. Ah, well. III+ Platinummaster1 http://i41.tinypic.com/ifa9mw.png Dragonite for DAYS! I think this is the 4th or 5th one I've looked at :P Colors are good and in order. I especially like what you did with Heracross being completely pale and Gible also looks fantastic. Gible: I+; Palpitoad: II+; Dragonite: II; Audino: II; Heracross: I- PASS Where would you like to go next? teamplasma http://i40.tinypic.com/xn4wn7.png Okay, so I didn't get to your post in time, but I was going to say that I wanted it done five times, each one with a different inferno. This, however, is actually...pretty ingenious. I have to give you credit for creativity on this one! I PASS You have now become a teacher for the following classes-- Basic Recolors Advanced Recolors Basic Fusions Advanced Fusions Infernoes (If there's a mistake, let me know) Now, I'd like to see your teaching style, so if you would, please give Jared and Spirit their next assignments. |
if it is okay with you i would like an exam for infernoes please. Here are a few examples of my infernoes.
http://i40.tinypic.com/dp7fjb.jpg http://i42.tinypic.com/2ajn980.png http://i39.tinypic.com/rrhx02.jpg |
First teaching session!
Jared: I see you have gotten pretty good at this, you can't get the Exam from me, because I don't think that would be a good thing for my first time teaching. Advice: So, I have seen that you are doing pretty well. You must have done this before the class. But what I think need the most improvement one, if anything, is you outlining, I know that you can't control the colors of your swap-y; The thing is that you can us black as an alternate. Black can be used when it looks like the outlines are looking the same as the color of the pokemon (which I mostly saw in your Dragonair). So here is what I you like to see. Nidoking ---> Colored as ---> Conkeldurr Zoroark ---> Colored as ---> Bellsprout (this is the one to see how flexible you can be) Eevee ---> Colored as ---> Any eeveelution (Please specify, and this is the easier one, like a break.) Spirit: So you are doing recolors? Best place to start! Advice: Now since you are a beginner at this you can be told a few things. One of them is 'go from darkest to lightest' which works well and I encourage you to do. I also think that looking over your sprite twice (or so) is important, I often make a sprite then save and post, after I post I notice an error... That isn't good. Here you go. Skitty --> Colored as --> Nosepass (not to hard). Swellow ---> Colored as ---> Pelipper. Swinub --- Colored as ---> Any Grass starter (and any of its evolutions, tell me which). |

Quote:
Now from the look of those you are doing somethings wrong, but lets see how you handle my exam. Golurk --- Inferno-ed as either ---> a.Midnight (dark blues), Marshmellow( lightest color white), or c.Pillow (PICK ONE.) Seaking ---> Inferno-ed as either ---> a. Fresh Cut Grass, b.Paralyzed (shocking yellows), c. The Sun's Plasma (VERY Neon red). Klinkang ---> Inferno-ed as ---> Pillow. Good luck and PM me if you have problems. |
Okay, teamplasma, everything looks right and in order. I do think, however, that Platinum's doing fine with infernoes, although I'd still like to see his exam nonetheless. In the meantime, here's what I'd like to do now.
I'm going to sign up for the Trainers Class with Idno. I'd like you to sign up for Re-types, also with Idno. Once we pass those, we can have permanent coverage. Idno, you'll be teaching us these classes, but once we are qualified to teach them, I'll have to ask that you step down, although you can continue to teach once you've passed 5 classes. Since you're teaching these two classes, I will go ahead and count it as having passed them. You then simply need to test out of 3 other classes, which I have no doubt you're capable of doing. |
ALRIGHTTTTT:
Nidoking colored as Conkeldurr: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...conkeldurr.png Very nice IMO, I liked it. Zoroark colored as.... Bellsprout?: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...bellsprout.png Oh god, I hate you for picking Bellsprout. Syra said that in basic recoloring matching up body parts didn't matter, so I didn't! Here is the trainwreck of... Zorosprout! Eevee colored as Jolteon: http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/media/upl...Spr_5b_135.png ...Just kidding. http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...veejolteon.png The real one! Pretty basic I guess, didn't take too long. |
JARED:
http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...conkeldurr.png Nidoking: Yes, looks cool, and convincing. A http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...bellsprout.png Zoroark: Lol, I thought that it was a fun little thing, but I am sorry, You did do well on the swapping. B+ http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...veejolteon.png Eevee: Wasn't this my back to the basics assignment? Well that is what it is about to see if you can still do the easier things (which I know you can). A- (I really wanted to do A but I think that I gave you a proper grade) Now I think that from what I have seen you could go to the exam if you wanted or practice some more. You may pick. |
Quote:
Also I'm glad you use a letter grade system, much easier to understand imo. |
JARED:
You are pretty good and if you pass my exam I really you go on and do other classes. ADVICE: I noticed that your ear was messed up before you did. That means you probably didn't revise, look over, you sprite. and make sure you did everything right. It is a beginners mistake and you will learn from experience that looking over is VERY important. I cannot tell you how many times I have messed up the sprite and not boticed until after posting. It is a biggie. EXAM: Regigigas ---> Colored as ---> Mamoswine (Biggie, The dots on Regi CAN all be the same color, I think that will be fine.) Arceus ---> Colored as ---> Shaymin Gallade ---> Colored as ---> Weavile Any first gen legend ---> Colored as ---> Any fifth gen legend. Good luck, you exam will now begin. |
Here is my third assignment:
1-Skitty, colored as Nosepass: http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...Skittypass.png This one proved to be not only easy, but a good sprite too. 2-Swellow, colored as Pelipper: http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/277.png This one was hard to manage, but I think it looks fine. 3-Swinub, colored as Chikorita: http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/220.png The simple shades of Swinub made it look a bit plain. I couldn't improve its shading since I didn't want to change any of its features. |
ANNOUNCEMENT: I decided that whatever assignment I give, I will do too, just to make sure that it works.
The Spirit of Time: I apologize for giving you an assignment that had pretty difficult shades. But here is what I think. http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...Skittypass.png This one is my favorite, I like the colors and it looks clean on your part. A+ http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/277.png This one is different, the outlines on the wing is lighter than the shading around it. So that is something to work on. B- http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/220.png This one I will take credit for the mistakes. I think the palette should have been a little large with shades. So yes that was a doodoo on my part. B ADVICE: All I have to say is check over every time. Check the outlines, shading, and EVERYTHING. A common mistake is you forget your eyes in recolor, don't forget them because then you aren't switching everything. So remember my advice as you work, just for your own good. So here is your 4th assignment. Sandslash ---> Colored as ---> Galvantula (This is your toughy, I hope) Kingler ---> Colored as ---> Drowzee (As I was doing this I noticed that you will have to either leave the inside of the claw how it was or somehow make it work. Which can be done) Gastly ---> Colored as ---> Weezing (I think matching the gasses and such will be interesting). |
http://i44.tinypic.com/2naslj6.png Here's My Exam.
|
ANNOUNCEMENT: For now one I will be mentoring Platinum and Spirit. SyracuvatTenlii will take Jared and DJ Bird. That's that.
PLATINUM http://i44.tinypic.com/2naslj6.png Golurk: it appears to be good. But I looked at it and it had dark marks where the shouldn't. The foot and shoulder is where you can find there. B Seaking: This one is really good I must say. I think this has the least amount of flaws. Fine job. +A Klinkang: This one IS my favorite, I love everything, you did well. GREAT WORK! +A YOU PASSED! If you would like to take another class please state your passed classes then you desired class to enroll in. |
I have passed basic recoloring, advanced recoloring, and infernos. Now I want to take basic fusions.
|
PLATINUMMASTER1
So you have decided to do Fusions... Here is just some simple thibgs you need to know.
Here is what I want to see what you can do with. BASE Rattata ---> Fused with ---> Zubat Diglett ---> Fused with ---> Oddish This will help you, they also have other gen parts. |
http://i44.tinypic.com/do0x3r.png
What do You Think. |
Sorry I havent finish my exam yet, real life exams take priority... and ive been lazy D:
|
Platinummaster1
From now on, would you please post the assignments in different files, it makes it easier. :D Thanks http://i44.tinypic.com/do0x3r.png Rattata: I like it, I think he turned out the most like I imagined. Still it is good. A Diglett: Good, simple so it is hard to critic. So yeah, good. A- ADVICE: What was lacking in your first sprites was detail. Add as much as possible. BUT, not too much. Your Rattata could have had more detail. Like add the Zubat tail, or ears. I usually won't pick a pokemon that wont have enough detail to be sprited with, so that won't need to be worried about. 1 last thing, use the parts given at spriters resource. If you need help finding them, contact me. Next assignment. #2. BASE Tepig ---> Fused with ---> Phanpy Skitty ---> Fused with ---> Electrike Patrat --->Fused with ---> Oshawott |
I think I get what Syra said about Devamping, but I'm not too sure yet. If I'm not doing it right feel free to fail this assignment and point me in the right direction.
|
Quadcentruo
Okay, Quad, I'm going to go ahead and skip the grading on this one, because I'd actually be giving you Vs for all of them in all honesty. Rather, let me take a quick moment to further explain how this works. You have to pick 2 shades, and 2 shades only. These along with black and white are the ONLY shades you are allowed to use for the sprite you intend to make. Take a look at the old sprites in your Gen I or II games and examine them. If you look closely enough, they actually have only 4 shades to them, strangely enough. It's weird, I know. But if it can be done, that's what you need to do. Now, I'll go ahead and ask that you redo these sprites, and don't hesitate to talk to me if you have further questions. |
Sorry for the wait, been busy and stuffz, here is my exam.
Regigigas ---> Colored as ---> Mamoswine: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...smamoswine.png Not too bad, since this is only basic coloring I left the feet and hairthings the pink-nose color of mamoswine :p Arceus ---> Colored as ---> Shaymin: http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...eusshaymin.png Came out pretty well, so yeah. Gallade ---> Colored as ---> Weavile : http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...adeweavile.png This one was pretty fun, I like the colors. Any first gen legend ---> Colored as ---> Any fifth gen legend. (Zapdos) (Kerudio) :http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...doskerudio.png Very nice IMO, basicish. |
My fourth assignment:
http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...rit1995/28.png The base color was relatively the same, yet there was a little difference. The major difference is shown in the color of the spikes. http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...rit1995/99.png The shading of both the sprites were equal. It was an easy task. http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...rit1995/92.png Overall, I think this is my best assignment so far. |
SPIRIT :
This was you 4th assignment, one more then your EXAM!!!! http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...rit1995/28.png I liked this one because it turned out like I imagined. Pretty good. A- http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...rit1995/99.png This one was pretty easy, I think it was easy too. But still good. A http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...rit1995/92.png This one I laughed at. Not because it is bad (which it isn't). But because it is a gas ball. Good almost zero flaws. A+ish ADVICE: I don't have advice for you, you are doing good, getting better ever time. So your 5th and final assignment before the EXAM is... http://www.pokestadium.com/pokemon/s...dpearl/411.png ---> Colored as ---> http://www.pokestadium.com/pokemon/s.../shiny/229.png http://www.pokestadium.com/pokemon/s...kwhite/542.png ---> Colored as ---> http://www.pokestadium.com/pokemon/s...kwhite/576.png http://www.pokestadium.com/pokemon/s...frame2/368.png ---> Colored as ---> http://www.pokestadium.com/pokemon/s...kwhite/521.png |
Jared
http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...smamoswine.png That looked like it took some effort. Turned out well though. II http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...eusshaymin.pngAlso a formidable assignment, but it went in your favor. II+ http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...adeweavile.pngOoh, I like what you did with this one. I think it's your best one of this assignment. I http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/a...doskerudio.png I'm going to assume that "Kerudio" is Keldeo. Either way, you did it well, although it was a little basic II- PASS Alright, Jared, where are we going next? |

I think I'll do advanced recoloring. Also what is your grading system? Still don't get that :| |
http://i43.tinypic.com/29zq8w6.png http://i40.tinypic.com/a4vkmx.png http://i44.tinypic.com/1608zyu.png
I Took Your Advice and used more parts in the fusions. I Think They Turned Out Alright. |
Changed my mind, think I'll do devamps.
|
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../PurDevamp.png --- This thing proved to be a bit difficult.
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../BidDevamp.png --- I don't like that nose. http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...TotoDevamp.png --- I actually like this one. |
Quadcentruo
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../PurDevamp.png It looked difficult. But you seemed to figure out how to make it work. II+ http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../BidDevamp.png Hm. There's a little red spot on Bidoof's nose. You have to watch out for those sorts of things. III http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...TotoDevamp.png I like this one too. I think it's a good idea of how a Gen II sprite might look. I- Assignment #2 This assignment has 4 Devamp tasks 1. Drowzee 2. Masquerian 3. Keldeo 4. CHOICE TASK: Any Gen IV pokemon. |
PLATINUMMASTER:
Lets see how it goes. First off thanks for putting all of you sprites in separate files! Second. I am going to be frank with this one. Hope I done upset you. http://i43.tinypic.com/29zq8w6.png So this one is... different, one might say weird. I think that It is good but looks a little weird, but not much wrong with it. B+ http://i40.tinypic.com/a4vkmx.png This one looks cool, at first. If you are going to try to perfect it then you have to make as much as you can right. The shading going from the right spike to the head is a little off. A--/B++ (I can't decide) http://i44.tinypic.com/1608zyu.png Now I was like, 'this one is cool!'. But again, perfectionist sees something. There is a white tuft on its hand, it WAS from its hand, but when you swapped tail you should have taken it out, But it is kinda good... A- ADVICE: Two things... 1) Take off all of the parts if you swap them. Don't be affraid to swap things like eyes, noses, and mouths. 2)Revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise, revise... revise. :] Okay I am not going to change the difficulty too much, because your last ones were a little choppy. ASSIGNMENT 2 1/2 (BASE)Charmander ---> Fused with ---> Squirtle Houndour ---> Fused with ---> Vulpix (Choose base) (Base) Igglybuff ---> Fused with ---> Pichu. |
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../DroDevamp.png --- Drowzee has a mouthful of brown.
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...MasqDevmap.png --- This one was easier than I thought it was going to be. http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../KelDevamp.png --- Stupid ponies and having more than two main shades of color.... http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../LuxDevamp.png --- And I chose Luxray for my choice assignment. The previous two I chose before this were Roserade and Empoleon, but they both came out pretty sloppy looking. |
i think I would like to do devamps too :]

Quadcentruo
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../DroDevamp.png Heh. Interesting idea using brown for the mouth, although I personally would have used black or something. II+ http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...MasqDevmap.png I figured it would be pretty easy. II http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../KelDevamp.png You complain about this one, but I think it's the best one of this assignment. I http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../LuxDevamp.png Okay, that's a good choice. I can imagine the other ones being a little more difficult, but this one's a good difficulty, and it turned out nice for you. II Assignment #3 This assignment contains 5 devamping tasks-- 1. Marowak 2. Dunsparce 3. Absol 4. Uxie 5. CHOICE ASSIGNMENT: Any Gen V pokemon |
Okay, so Syra I will be taking the class from you I take it, I think that make you have 4 students, do you need me to take one?

Alright, everyone who's taking Devamps, please wait a little bit. I'm going to be making a full tutorial on Devamping to make things easier, mainly because Devamps is one of those concepts that is particularly difficult to grasp the first time.

http://i42.tinypic.com/29dy682.png This One's Kinda Iffy.
http://i43.tinypic.com/11kwqbk.png This one was incredibly tough to do. http://i40.tinypic.com/2vvu89k.png I Kinda like this one. Overall i think that I Didn't Do Very Good. |
PLATINUMMASTER!:
http://i42.tinypic.com/29dy682.png The thing is, this one has 2 knees. That isnt going to fly. Also if I was going to let it go I would atleast sy make it look like the shading was dong right. Sorry. B http://i43.tinypic.com/11kwqbk.png On this one I will tell you a bad then good then bad thing. The ear on the thing is different the the other. You did quite well on the coloring :D .Some feet are the same as Vulpix and the others are not. B- http://i40.tinypic.com/2vvu89k.png The main thing in fusions is trying to make a pokemon that looks like it could actually be one, but it was out of two already made ones. This isn't fitting that. B- So I am going to tell you this. Please redo them. ADVICE:When you are doing your next assignment you have to do the following. Replace all of the parts you are swapping. Make sure the the parts that you are swapping fit, like the legs on Vulpix could have been better. If it don't fit, it wont ship. TAKE. YOUR. TIME. If you don't like how it looks, then do it again, don't just do it once then submit if you know that it was done not the best you could have done it. Kinda think outside the box, but if you wander too far then you might trail. And trailing leads to a bad sprite. ASSIGNMENT: http://i42.tinypic.com/29dy682.pnghttp://i40.tinypic.com/2vvu89k.png Redo these, but with the advise I have given you. Also I would REALLY want to apologize. I just want you to be the best, if I sugarcoat everything then you won't get better. |
http://i43.tinypic.com/2k3493.png Definitely Better
http://i40.tinypic.com/212zj15.png I Think I Did Better |
PLAT:
http://i43.tinypic.com/2k3493.png "Definitely Better" I like this one A LOT better know, thank you for taking my advice. A http://i40.tinypic.com/212zj15.png "I Think I Did Better" This one still wasn't pleasing, but you did almost everything right. Good. I figured I was the one who mess up, on picking. A- I think the same advice could be used here from last time so that is what we are going to do. ASSIGNMENT #3 We need to get somewhere in your learning and I feel like you and I have been reading the same page for a long time. So lets turn the page and progress in the story. Sawsbuck (http://wyncorporation.com/pokemon/img/pkm/586.png) ---. Fused with ---> Scolipede (THIS IS THE IMAGINATION ONE!)(When you do it I will show you how my friend did it. Luxio ---> Fused with ---> ANY POKEMON! Gothorita ---> Fused with ---> Kirlia |
This assignment was harder than the ones before.
http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/411.png The colors look a bit surprising, but I think I found the best match. http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/542.png I prefer this the most. http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/368.png One sprite had more colors than the other, which was troublesome. This was the hardest, but I think I managed it. |
SPIRIT O' TIME
http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/411.png I picked this one because I thought it would be challenging, but you did well on it :] A http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/542.png I like this one a lot too. I say that it probably shouldn't hae been that hard. But still. [B+]A[/B] http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/368.png This one is probably my favorite that you have done. But here are some things. When you recolor, you swap everything. I think the hollow eyes are AWESOME. But that does against reco. I keep forgetting to enforce this. But you really should do that on your exam. A- EXAM! Landorus ---> Colored as ---> Ho-oh Blaziken ---> Colored as ---> Tropius Braviary ---> Colored as ---> Haxorus Mr.Mime ---> Colored as ---> Meloetta |
I think I should clarify about the last sprite. Everything is recolored, including the eyes. If you haven't noticed, the iris is yellow in color just like the bird's, and the sclera is green like the bird's body.
|
Gut it is a color swap, not a disguise (which should be a class).

Gotta love late responses. :faec:

I GUESS I WILL TAKE LLOYD! :D
LLOYD Okay Lloyd, you are now my apprentice. I have taken you under my wing. And so lets get started on your work. http://i41.tinypic.com/2portb4.png This one looks good alone. But not Kaa-y not looking like him too much, but it is still good with the pallets and such. A- http://i44.tinypic.com/oado9c.png This one is convincing. I like it. But the outlines and shades on the tail are kinda close. A http://i43.tinypic.com/2vi2eck.png Tattoo, nice touch. The colors you picked, good. Outlines, not so good. I think that I know how to you advice now. A- http://i43.tinypic.com/14jwxz8.png I am trying to understand the concept of this one. Is it making it have a shiny coat DIFFERENT from its regualy shiny coat??? I guess you did good. It is hard to say. A- ADVICE:::So what I have noticed that is in most of your assignments you are doing shading not too well. The colors are REALLY close together. The outlines are pretty close to the base coat. That will not do. But that IS something to work on. I think this will be you final assignment before the exam. Here is what I would like for you to do for me next. Manectric ---> Colored as ---> An African Lion Kirlia ---> Colored as ---> A ballerina Wailord ---> Colored as ---> a Killer Whale. |
Manectric as an African Lion (Liectric) - http://i42.tinypic.com/286vbkp.png

http://i42.tinypic.com/286vbkp.png
This one is good but something is happining on the top left of its mane. About A http://i39.tinypic.com/11w56ad.png This one is good. The skin tone is weird, but still I like it :] A http://i43.tinypic.com/258cnya.png This is a great example of good shading that has not as close shades! Good, this one I like. But there are a few parts that are iffy. A Since it is exam time I can't give you advice. So here is what you need to work on. Exam This exam is themed on heros. Machamp ---> Colored as ---> The DragonFly (The super hero) Abomasnow ---> Colored as ---> Superman Ninjask ---> Colored as ---> The Flash Carracosta ---> Colored as ---> Aquaman |

http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...MaroDevamp.png Ah, it didn't look so bad. I can imagine it was somewhat difficult, though. II http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../DunDevamp.gif This actually looks a lot like a Gen II sprite would look. I- http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/.../AbsDevamp.gif Good. II+ http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...UxieDevamp.gif I didn't really notice any problem. II http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...himsDevamp.gif That's funny, because it actually did seem pretty easy. I'll take your word for it, though. I- Okay, so I've talked to you about this already, but here's your... EXAM This exam contains 2 tasks. 1. Ugh, I have a couple people waiting to take the Devamps class, but I've been trying to make a tutorial video, mainly because Devamps is not quite as simple as it seems. Unfortunately, my recent attempt at making said video ended in utter failure. Here's where you come in-- For your exam, I need you to make a tutorial video on how to devamp the pokemon Raikou. You may use voice narration, annotations, or you can simply type on a Word or Notepad document as you work-- which-ever's best for you. 2. Meanwhile, just for the purpose of a complete exam, I'd also like you to devamp-- Heatmor Milotic |

Sp-Sp-Sp-Spirit:
First of let me tell you this; It is an am, it isn't going to be that easy. :] http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/645.png Landorus ---> Colored as ---> Ho-oh I like this one, but at a few point the coloring is weird. That is Ho-ohs fault though. A- http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/628.png Braviary ---> Colored as ---> Haxorus I did this one because I like Haxorus's colors :3 Still you did a great job on thi one. +A http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/257.png Blaziken ---> Colored as ---> Tropius You did pretty well on this one. I like it, and there are no spottable errors. (To me) +A http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/a...it1995/122.png Mr.Mime ---> Colored as ---> Meloetta Thi one had nice p[arts. But the bad parts were the poor outlines. Like on the hand, there was green when that i the hair color not the body/hand. BUT It i still a pretty good recolor. A- AND *drumrolllllll* YOU PASS! What would you like to take now???? SYRACUVATTENLII I have been trying totell you thi, but you probably dont read my aignment that much so you didn't get the message, but now that I put it in large text maybe you will notice. I would like to take devamps |

Since Fusions don't need Advanced Recoloring, I guess I will just go with Fusions.
|
LLOYD
Okay, lets grade this. http://i39.tinypic.com/303e2l2.png I like it, probably your best out of these. A http://i41.tinypic.com/30c4l6r.png This one is okay, but do you see the blue dots around where the red tarts, thoe should probably be red or darker blue. A- http://i41.tinypic.com/2a85o2g.png You cannot spot that many flaws but I do think that the flah has yellow on him and that there should be more on this. But that wount be held against you. A http://i41.tinypic.com/sphjlt.png I can't say thi one is that great. It's outlines are quite light, even if it is yellow. The green outlines are also pretty light. Also there could have been more orange. But I will not hold that against the facts. +B I don't think I can say Fail because you don't deserve to fail, but please practice more after this. So that leave me to say. PASS SPRITE Let me see you do thi one. Krabby ---> Fused with ---> Geodude (pick base) |
I'd like to enroll in Fusions now, please.

LLOID
ummmm... Lemme see how you make this. Torchic ---> Fused with ---> Mudkip. |
Alright, this is my exam Syra.
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...HeatDevamp.gif ---- I have nothing against my own edit, but I just don't like the sprite itself. http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...MiloDevamp.gif ---- I had to make a tough decision with this one - keep the yellow skin or keep the red scales. AAAAAAAAAND the video that I think I did absolutely horrible on. Hopefully, the general idea of devamping is shown. |
Quadcentruo
http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...HeatDevamp.gif Yeesh. I don't like this pokemon either. You did well on it, though. II- http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/...MiloDevamp.gif Eh. I think it would have looked better with the yellow skin. III+ THANK YOU SO MUCH LIKE YOU HAVE NO FREAKING IDEA I++ PASS Right, where are you headed next? teamplasma and Jared Alright, both of you are taking Devamps as I see, so here we go: First of all, take a look at Quad's video above for how to do devamps at their most basic. Now, what you ought to know is that most of the time, the devamps you're making won't be true devamps. That's okay. This is the recoloring concept of making a sprite LOOK like it's devamped. Assignment #1 This assignment has 3 tasks teamplasma, I want you to devamp these 3 pokemon: 1. Ampharos 2. Squirtle 3. CHOICE TASK:Any Gen III pokemon Jared, you need to devamp these 3 pokemon: 1. Gligar 2. Linoone 3. CHOICE TASK:Any Gen V pokemon |
http://i44.tinypic.com/1977zq.pngI liked it :D
http://i42.tinypic.com/qx9h1d.pngHardest of them all. http://i44.tinypic.com/ay9aoz.png It was weird making the yellow wiskers red. |
http://i39.tinypic.com/2rpaclx.png I Tried to find a pokemon that was facing the same direction as luxio.
http://i41.tinypic.com/2iqe91s.png This one went together so well because all of the pieces just fit together, http://i42.tinypic.com/15gt842.png This one was insanely difficult because i couldn't figure out where to put certain pieces. |
Actually, I'd like to enroll in Devamps, please.
|
Hmm... I guess from here I'll take the complete opposite of what I just took - Revamp.
|
http://i39.tinypic.com/2rpaclx.png
Luxio ---> Fused with ---> ANY POKEMON! http://i41.tinypic.com/2iqe91s.png Gothorita ---> Fused with ---> Kirlia This one isn't so bad. A-/A (somewhere in between) This one has MANY bright color. I think that the spriting could have been a little better done, but it is still poor. B http://i42.tinypic.com/15gt842.png Sawsbuck ---> Fused with ---> Scolipede Okay, there isn't much shading except for the feet of Scolipede. It's horns were weird looking, theme being parallel and all. http://www.pokispritewebsite.com/POISON%20DEER.png (I know this isn't all Saws and Scol, but this is kinda what I was looking for.) B ADVICE: Okay O what I think you should know is that when put a part on a pokemon (but you need two) don't just put the same one on there again, but paralleled. It isn't that attractive. Just look at this.... http://www.pokispritewebsite.com/Solzley.bmp. The wings are the same but flipped and THAT my good sir is a no no. O that is just my advice to my student. So here is what I want you to try YOUR BEST on. Monferno ---> Fused with ---? Roilu. |
|
Never mind my other post, I'll do Fusions.
Can you suggest a paint program to use for Fusing? I can't do it on Paint or paint.NET. ;x |
http://i42.tinypic.com/wwkzt4.png
Okay, this is better. But there is outlines mising.. A lot. You may not notice it but there are. A-.I took what you did then fixed it. This is what I mean by revise. http://i43.tinypic.com/skzwcy.png Assignment Now do this. Croconaw ---> Fused with ---> Quilava ^^^^^^ ^BASE^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ |
teamplasma
http://i44.tinypic.com/1977zq.png Love this one. I http://i42.tinypic.com/qx9h1d.png Good, good! I can also see that you've grasped the concept of dithering. II+ http://i44.tinypic.com/ay9aoz.png I know how it is, especially when you color a pokemon like Roselia, which has like 4 hues that you have to make into 2 shades. You handled it quite well, though. II Assignment #2 This assignment has 4 devamp tasks 1. Dugtrio 2. Skarmory 3. Kricketot 4. CHOICE TASK: Any Gen V Fighting type Quadcentruo Okay, Quad. Revamps is more complicated than basic Devamps, but much less complicated than advanced Devamps. Here's a basic explanation. If you don't get it after that, I'll see about providing a tutorial video. Revamping a pokemon is a matter of taking its 4 color shading, and upgrading it to its current shading. The best way to do this is to make its Gen V sprites colors your new palette. Here's the catch: This is where you completely alter the shading. Ideally, you should make the shading similar to the Gen V sprite you're referencing. I can't explain much further without going into excruciatingly complicated detail much too complex to put in words, so I'll just give you your first assignment to see if you understand. Assignment #0 This assignment is to test whether or not you need further explanation on the subject. If you pass, we'll move along to Assignment #1. This assignment has 1 task. CHOICE TASK: Take any of the first 251 pokemon's Gen I or II sprites, and revamp it to Gen V. |
|
I can't find anything to do Fusing with, so I'll take Devamps. ;x

Lloyd
Oooookay, then Lloyd. First of all, go ahead and watch this video Quad's made on Devamping. Take note that the eraser tool he uses on MS Paint is basically like the color changer in Paint.net Assignment #1 For your first assignment, I'd like you to devamp the following three Gen III-V sprites. 1. Grovyle 2. DRAGONITE YAY :faec: 3. CHOICE TASK: Any Poison type pokemon. teamplasma http://i39.tinypic.com/5w9rbb.jpg BLEARGH! JPG! V Sorry, I need you to resubmit this in png form before I can grade it properly. http://i43.tinypic.com/142v5kw.png Eh, it's alright, but I think the dithering with black may have been a bit in excess. II- http://i43.tinypic.com/212waci.png Good, good. II+ http://i41.tinypic.com/24c72ms.png I think this one's your best. I- Assignment #3 This assignment has 2 tasks 1. REDO Task 1 from the previous assignment. 2. CHOICE TASK: Pick any 3rd evolution pokemon and devamp it. |
teamplasma, I will be away for two weeks, thus I won't be able to attend any of your classes. Sorry, but see you next year.
