Pokémon Trainer Mirre

on: May 24, 2007, 11:24:08 pm


I've been playing alot of Pokémon Diamond lately. So, I was inspired to make a sprite of myself as a trainer! I'm gonna catch 'em all!

Here are the references I worked from (actual sprites ripped from Diamond/Pearl): http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/dptr.html No need to crit this, but feel free to do so if you like. I'm pretty sure I won't change much though.

That's sweet!  Maybe this could be the start of an activity....if i have to come up with a crit, its that the desat lines in the hair look a little off to me, would be nice if a darker or more saturated color was used there.  You have a few VERY close shades in the white/light-blue range, might be able to scrap one in favor of a helper color for the hair.  Maybe a little pedestal/fight area is next?

You've captured the style quite well.  I second the activity idea, seeing this has made me want to pixl me catchin' pokemans too.

thirded.

the design and color choices are nice.  some places, like the white shirt, look far smoother and more pixel arty than say, the right shoulder, but these might be failings of the style more than anything else
A mistake is a mistake.
The same mistake twice is a bad habit.
The same mistake three or more times is a motif.

fourded.

I already pixeled myself like that a couple of years ago.

No real heavy crits for this one...

Enough posts talking only about the activity. :mean:
You can all start pixelling your trainers on your own.

The sprite itself is nice, I've never been a fan of the weird outlines and unpolishedness pokemon sprites have.
The black jumps out too much in my opinion.
But good job imitating the style.

Awesome. It's really clean and exactly the right style. Mind if I turn me and my boyfriend into trainers as well?
I eighth the activity, but I'll do it whether there'll actually be one or no.
