Hey Hey everybody, I've been following the entire happening and I must say: "Keep up the great work!!! ;D" I wanted to join sooner, but I didn't know a lot about the site etc. So I sended an e-mail to Fossil Kabutops (We're both Dutch) and he explained everything. So I joined!!! To get to the point: I don't ( = can't ) do any sprites of tiles, pokémon etc. The only thing I am good in is drawing Pokémon So if I'm allowed to, I'll draw some artwork of the pokémon designed by the team!! So bring it on! BTW don't mind the grammar 'cause I'm from the Netherlands

Sure, get to drawing. Draw what every Pokemon you like, as we'll likely decorate the future site with them. It'll be a way to spruce it up.

Thanks for replying, V Faction. *my appreciations* But shouldn't there be a new topic or something? For Artwork? I just wondered.
BTW I am a big fan of Smolderen *he looks so badass:D*, so I'll be starting with him. OK?

Oh.. BTW Who knows a free uploadingsite where you can upload pics that are about 5 MB? Or else I won't be able to upload some sketches I made of Smolderen, but also others too. Can somebody help me?

Just use this topic. It's the one you brought the subject up in and the one I replied in, so we'll just take it from here. Try www.uploadit.org. I'd suggest www.walagata.com but I'm aware if they can handle large submissions. I'm sure they could though. EDIT: By the way, just as a personal suggestion, I think it would be nice if you did a lot of the smaller, cuter Pokemon. That's usually how sites advertise and I consider it a good way to attract people. I've heard many good things about our starters as well as most of the other Basic Pokemon. And they must be easy due to their size, so start with those if you'd like.

Ok, I think I'm going to register at Walagata, because it has more storage room. (Thnx again V) Then I guess I'll start with Sputteren (soooooo cute!), but to draw the perfect picture (I like to draw pokémon in all kinds of positions, not just like the sprite) I am going to need the back sprite as well. Sputteren is designed by you, isn't he? Then you probably have it's back sprite, right? Could you or anyone else post it for me? In that way, I could study Sputteren and pick the best pose ;D Thnx!

Oh, and another thing.... How do you get such a picture on your signature, because I want to put a pic there, but I can put in my sig??

It's ironic actually, but I haven't done any back sprites for my Pokemon. It's just a thing in my head which really repels me from doing any good with back sprites. It's the reason why I want to get cuddles to do them down the line (as if she didn't already have a lot to do). There was one early back sprite of Sputteren made by Ket Shi, before the forums at Serebii went down. I had mixed feelings about it however, so I don't believe it was every accepted. I don't even know if Ket Shi still has it. Tell you what though... Why not just try to redo the sprite in art form? Just draw what you see and we'll worry about more complex sprites for it later. You'll be able to do more vivid pictures with a lot of cuddles Pokemon because she provides back sprites for a lot of hers, so feel free to try your hand with those any time soon. But with mine, just go simple. As I said, no need to get too carried away yet. It's always a good idea to get some basic art out there.
EDIT: Zero, if you make a mistake, you can edit your posts, like this.

BTW It maybe a stupid question, but how many fingers does Sputteren has?
|
|
|
Post by ZeroCool on Mar 20, 2004 21:04:59 GMT
And are those fingers real nails (like Charmeleon or Wartortle) or are they just like its skin (just like Charmander or Squirtle) ? EDIT: Ok, so that's how it's done. Thnx again V Faction EDIT 2: I can't really modify my drawings on the computer (For example: I can't thicken the outlines of my drawings), so all of my drawings will be pretty plain and probably need refurbishing. Srry about that (Guess I'm pretty useless )

The forearms are just skin like Charmander's.

Well, here's a quick sketch of Sputteren, it's uncolored yet. I'm planning to color it, if you like it. So, here it is: www.pureoc.d2g.com/uploaded_images/17486.jpgHope ya like it! Remember, this is just a quick sketch. The real version is yet to come.

Ha! Nice. See, just drawing the front part wasn't so bad. And it would be interesting to see colored, the whole works even.

Woow, that's a great sketch.
Great, another Dutch person. I'm speaking Dutch myself too ;D.
Can I try to draw those new pokémon too? I love them and I'm a bad spriter. I could help with the future site aswell, if you want me to of course, I'm a pretty good webmaster.
Maybe I could make a fake TCG set too.

wow, your sputteren is SOOO much better than mine, i guess you have a better imagination than me, when it comes to drawing something based off of a sprite are you gonna color it? digitally or by hand? i color mine with photoshop, but currently i'm working on something else (which is why i've stopped after the three starters )

Uhh, sorry, but TCG is something else that won't be of much concern until far later in the game's life.

THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNKKKKSSSSSS!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D I appreciate all your replies so much! Well, since I don't have photoshop or anything, I'm going to color it by hand. That's what I do best, after drawing it, of course . When I'm done with Sputteren, I'm going to work on Dolphina, the water starter. So peace out. EDIT: Hey Fossil Kabutops, it's me, Laurens. I sended an e-mail to you, remember?

I know that you were the other guy that was interesting in doing some Artwork. That's a little disappointing that you've stopped, but if you have any completed work please show us. There's no rule any where saying we can't have 2 artists at once.

Uhh, sorry, but TCG is something else that won't be of much concern until far later in the game's life. Ok, I'll wait untill then, no problem. Anyways, I drew one of Kyogroudon's, Ket Shi's and V Faction's pokémon: Antidae. It isn't as great as ZeroCool's drawing, but here is it anyways: www.deviantart.com/view/5981713/

Well, actually actually, it's a joint effort between Kyo, me, and Ket Shi. I did the stats and Ket did refurbishment.
