Okay, so my computer says it is png. Idk how it got JPG, but PNG is the file type.

teamplasma


Much better! I'm not quite sure why it showed up as jpg either, but whatever.
As far as the grading, I think it's done quite well, although I think the mouth could be a different color, like white or grayscale-dithered. II+
[/QUOTE]
Erm. 3rd Evolution is what I said. This is a second evolution.

Just give me a 3rd evolution devamp this time and I think you'll be ready for an exam.

Sigilyph&Arceops

Sorry, but starting tomorrow I will be gone for a week.

MY ASSIGNMENT


PLATINUMMASTER!

Okay, this one isn't too good. The coloring is weird, and where did you get the coloring, and didn't we talk about the parallel thing? B-


This one has only two (noticeable) things incorrect. Good. A-


Now I will be gone a week, so this is what I want to see when I get back.

Granbull---> Fused With ---> Munchlax (Base)

Wobbuffet ---> Fused with ---> Arbok

Rapidash (Base) ---> Fused with ---> Moltres.

A flying type ---> Fused with ---> A fighting type.

I'm a complete Noob when it comes to this stuff, but i'd like to learn basic recoloring, please.

Derp. I kinda forgot about this for a while .,_.,

teamplasma
Good, good. I can see your keen ability to make the sprite look like it has more shades than it really does. II+

EXAM
For your exam, I want you to pick 5 consecutive pokemon in the national dex between 1-649 (I.E. Venusaur, Charmander, Charmeleon, Charizard, Squirtle) and Devamp their Generation V sprites.

btpoke
Right, btpoke, for Basic Recoloring, refer to this video--

My Assignment





I recolored this hoothoot to the colors of a ledyba


Also, if you don't mind, i got bored and decided to do a little "extra credit?" i recolored a swampert to the colors of a blaziken, and i think it turned out quite well.

This One was incredibly difficult. i dont think these pokemon were really "compatible" if ya know what i mean.

I would like to apply for Revamp, I am somewhat know how to do. I did one of Politoad a while ago. I did pass Recolor when Shiny was still here.

PLATINUM!
Gee wizz you did good on this one! lets grade.

Weird, but I see it, like what you were getting at. A

VERY good~ No flaws +A

I do what you mean but I was looking for a pegasis. B+

This one i really funny, in a good way. I like it. A




You are ready for the Exam.

EXAM

Charizard ---> Fused With ---> Dragonite

Mightyena ---> Fused with ---> Absol

All of the 5th gen. Second Evolution startes. (like Dewott)

I have conquered every class besides Revamps and devamps i think... But I wish to do more Advanced Fusions or whatever

PHANTOM

Advanced fusions??? The point of Advanced fusions is to aim for topic as much as possible. You have to pick the pokemon and fuse them only given the topic. That is also the tart of free spriting. One might be Flightles Bird, and you make a sprite that looks like a real pokemon and is like the topic I gave you.

Let me see you do this.

TOPIC

A mouse. (any kind, any color)

I'd like to join here. Starting with devamps and basic recolours

teamplasma
Ah, too much work putting all of those files in this post, and I know you did a great job with them, mainly Swinub. It's really great when you can get that effect where it looks like it has more shades than it really does.
SCORES: I, II-, II, II+, I-

PASS
Two questions--
1. Would you like to teach Devamps now?
2. Where to next?

btpoke


My freaking GOD, that looks amazing. I


Good, good. II+


Nice choice there. II+


You're clearly getting the hang of things, looking at this. I appreciate the extra work.

Assignment #2
This assignment has 2 tasks
1. Color Swap Blitzle and Charmeleon. Basically, this means that you recolor Charmeleon as Blitzle AND Blitzle as Charmeleon.
2. CHOICE TASK: Pick two pokemon from different evolutionary lines that are next to each other in Pokedex Order, and color swap them.

Quadcentruo and Aquablast
Alright, I see that both of you are taking Revamps, so here's a tutorial video on how it works...sort of...
My advice is you look at the first like half of the video, then you can stop watching. I might have a better version in the future.

I've finished my test

Garchomp as Exploud {I know it doesn't look like much, but I did a lot. The skin colour is lighter to match Exploud's, different eye colour, and the obvious parts [The black is representing the holes in Exploud]}

Tyranitar as Snorlax

Entei as Kyurem {Probably the hardest}

Granbull as Alakazam

Q. Would you like to teach Devamps now?
A. Suurrrrrrrre

Q. Where to next?
A. Ummmmmm. Either Devamps II or Trainer. But those are both Indo ones.

MY ASSIGNMENT

alright. first of all, this charmander recolored as a blitzle reminds me of a shiny charizard

second of all, i do not like recoloring blitzle as charmander. i think it looks fine and all, but it was a pain to do.

i kind of had mixed feelings about this one. i decided to color swap wailord and numel. the wailord was kind of a pain to do, but the numel was pretty easy. anyway, i like how i did the numel. that is all.

My I join this school please.
Starting from Basic ReColoring

May I join your school starting at Basic Recolors.

I will teach you!

PKMNReB
FIRST, you need to know these by heart.
http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/a...rstutorial.png

JJ
Iiiii'm too lazy to reupload your pictures, so I'll just give you my comments.
1. Garchomp --> Exploud: Yeah, it doesn't look that different, but I suppose that's what happens when you pick pokemon with similar pallets. II-
2. Tyranitar --> Snorlax: Hehe. Good choice. I-
3. Entei --> Kyurem: That LOOKED difficult. You pulled it off, though. II+
4. Granbull --> Alakazam: Eh. It looks alright and fits the bill, but I'm not overly excited about this matchup. I think it would have been better if you had switched this one with #1. II-

PASS
Right, Jen, what do you want to get out of the way next?
NOTE: If you wish to pass out of a class, simply provide me with some of your work in the area.

teamplasma
Okay, so here's the thing: I'm not sure if Idno's going to be doing these classes; haven't heard from him lately. I'm curious, though, if you know how to do advanced Devamping. You've definitely gotten dithering down, but now it's a matter of making the sprite's dimensions and size so that it is a truly devamped sprite. Otherwise, if you think you have some experience in Trainers, show me some of your work.

Aquablast
Sorry, Aqua, this is my fault for forgetting to ask, but could you also provide me with the original sprites so I have something to compare to? Then I'll be able to grade you.

um, syra, i think you missed my assignment. it's on page 8, in case you missed it.

Truthfully, I have little to no experience in trainer sprites. That is why I was wanting to take it :/

May I please enrole in your spriting school starting with basic recoloring.

you alreasy said that, and I already gave you your assignment -.-

Sorry but i need them in a small png image... sorry.

How?

My PNG home work

1 attached image

You crop all of the edges out so that it is (for example) like this --->

Also you should really look at the tutorials I gave you >.>

This is my first assignment in fusions. It is really different from basic recoloring and needs a lot more time.

SPIRIT!

Yes This is good, I think that simple is good for now. I think you could have added a little more. A

ADVICE: Well, for now I think you got it mostly down, I see that from there you didnt put much on there. But that will be fine for now, but you won't be able to do so later on.

ASSIGNMENT!

Put an Arbok tail on Machamp/Machoke (you pick), then recolor it.

Mankey (Base) ---> Fused with ---> Paris

This is my work for devamps





I would like to get started on infernoes.

I finally got the hang o it [ATTACH]

2 attached images

I finally got the hang of it Attachment 2410

PKMNReB

This is good, It is really basic, next time recolor the eyes please. A


This one is good, the tongue is really bugging me, yellow? lol, good over all. A-

Advice: You are good, but the color selection was weird, I do see why you did that though, but that is a biggy in recolors, you need good selection.

ASSIGNMENT:

Joltik ---> Colored as ---> Gloom

Paras ---> Colored as ---> Cleffa

Aimpom ---> Colored as ---> Any dragon type.



SPIRIT O' TIME

I ment removing the legs and then it having the tail. But still. -A

You did Very very well at blending this one in with its original texture! Great! Could use more. A (With half a plus)

No advice needed, you do great.

What is next?

Please redo the Machamp thing.

Give Pikachu a Pachirisu tail

Electorb with ANYONE!

Quick Update: Jen, I've already seen your sprites earlier, and they're definitely of good quality so you PASS. What class would you like to take/test out of next?

teamplasma, what exactly is Electorb? :S

As I've said in that post, I'd like to try infernoes, and I'd like an assignment

@Spirit, Sorry I mean Voltorb :/ I had to do that post REALLY fast I kinda mixed Electrobe and Voltorb

Aquablast



I can't see these sprites while I'm typing them, but I did see enough to know that they're good. II+

Assignment #2
This assignment has 2 tasks
1. Typhlosion
2. CHOICE TASK: Pick any 3-species evolutionary line from Gen I or II and revamp all of them.


JJ
Okay, I'm going to go ahead and give you a brief explanation of infernoes and give you a pre-assignment. If you grasp the concept and give me a good assignment, we'll move on through the course. If you don't understand or fail the assignment, I'll give you a more detail explanation.

Infernoes revolves around the otherwise forbidden concept of pillow-shading. That is, coloring from darkest to lightest of a hue as you go from the outside of all sides to the inside. You'll most of the time be using 1 hue as determined by the assignment, and you should have four shades of each hue. Each layer should be 1 pixel thick except for the lightest layer, which will take up everything in the middle. The main exception to this rule is the Pillowshade task, in which you keep the palette of the sprite, but you do the Pillowshade technique. If you don't quite understand what Pillowshading exactly involves, I suggest you Google "Pillowshading".

Assignment 0
This assignment has 3 tasks.
1. Fiery Pidove
2. Icy Scizor
3. CHOICE TASK: Monochrome/Grayscale shade any pokemon of your choice.

PKMNReB


This one is good, but please, listen and recolor the eyes. B+


This one is better. I thin that the few mitakes that are there are not noticable so... A


This kinds of bugs me because its belly is almost the same color. So... Yeah. B

ADVICE: The point of recolors i for it to look different, that is why I am so freaking picky about the eyes, there usually is one warning, then i am like YOU NEED TO DO THIS BLAHBLAHBLAAAAH, lol. So what is need is for you to try and change ALL colors.

i'm reposting my assignment in case you missed it (since you haven't graded it yet).


color swap of charmander and blitzle





color swap of wailord and numel (next to each other in pokedex but of different evolutionary lines)

Who is he taking classes from???

who, me? i'm taking classes from syra

Here's my assignment:
I didn't like how this one turned out



I'd like to take one more assignment, just so I can get the hang of it

This one is a little weird because under the hand is a white line. I mean, yeah. If you need he full parts, like the rest of the hand, sprites-resource has it. B


This is good. Not much to say. A


I say it could have been blended better, it is good for the most part. Looks weird with out the outlines.

ASSIGNMENT:

Rhyhorn ---> Fused with ---> Dragonite

Scyther ---> Fused with ---> Scizor

btpoke



*sigh* Charmander's alright, but it's missing the yellow. I would suggest making it's tail-flame yellow shaded. The Blitzle's really nice, though. II-



Ooh, that's a really interesting combination. I-

Assignment #3 (I think...)
1. Relicanth --> Unfezant
2. Clamperl(sp?) --> Liligant
3. Loudred --> Drowzee
4. Flaafy --> Scolipede
5. Drapion --> Gyarados


JJ

Eh, not the colors I would have used. I think for fire, you need to go from red to yellow in 4 shades, not Dark Red to Light Red. III-

These colors could be a little more widely ranged. If you want an icy effect, you should have a really light shade of blue in the middle. III+

Really nice. II+

Assignment #1
1. Grassy Torchic
2. Fiery Excavalier (Again, try to go from red to yellow. See the example sprite)
3. CHOICE TASK: Icy Servine

Here's my assignment

You did well on this a little but the wings is a little off putting. A-

I am sorry about this, but but I meant Rhydon not Rhyhorn, I always get those two mixed around. This one is pretty okay, but do you see the flaws in the antenna? B


After this is the Exam. I feel that we have done more assignments than needed.

Let do this.

Rhydon ---> Fused with ---> Dragonite (Base)

Drapion ---> Fused with ---> A any pokemon (base)

Put the back of Zebstrika onto Girafarig

Can I still enroll here? I've been gone for 4 months, but I think I left off on fusions...

Uh, Solar, the original Spriting School is still up as a thread. If you could give me an update on what classes you've already taken and passed and possibly showcase your progress on Fusions, teamplasma will be taking care of you.

Alright, so I left off on a fusion assignment that Chibi gave me, which was this:
"Walrein and Weavile, pick your base
Ludicolo and Cloyster, pick your base
Vibrava and Rayquaza, pick your base"

Okay, SolarYoshi, go ahead and do that assignment, and teamplasma will be grading that for you.

Assignment (sorry if it took a while, i procrastinated a bit)

relicanth
as
unfezant

i felt a little weird doing this one, since i couldn't really figure out how to put the beak on and make it "work."
---------------------------
Clamperl (idk what sp means. i hope that's not too much of an issue)
as
lilligant

This one was easier than the relicanth, but it was still a little annoying.
---------------------------
Loudred
as
Drowzee

This one was pretty easy, and i like how it turned out.
---------------------------
Flaafy
as
Scolipede

Again, this one was pretty easy, and i'm pretty impressed with how it turned out.
---------------------------
Drapion
as
Gyrados

This one was kind of a favorite. It was fun to do, and i like how it turned out.
Also, the top of its head kind of looks like the top of a dewott's head.
Just saying.

I would like to take a basic recolouring class! Do I need to specify
who I want to teach me or is there a form to fill out? ^^
It's all part of my diabolical plan to become a teacher! MUHAHAHA

-SilverX

I will be your teacher, and I know you can excel in recolors, want to take the test?

Sure! I'll take it now.

SILVER X EXAM!


Deoxys S ---> colored as ---> Reuniclus

Reuniclus ---> colored as ---> Drilbur

Luxray ---> colored as ---> Magmortar

Magmortar ---> colored as ---> Roserade

Deoxys S ---> colored as ---> Reuniclus


Reuniclus ---> colored as ---> Drilbur


Luxray ---> colored as ---> Magmortar


Magmortar ---> colored as ---> Roserade


Personally, my favourite is the magmortar as roserade.

Deoxys S ---> colored as ---> Reuniclus

I thought that this would at least look a little hard for you than it is. But It looks like you did it with a breeze. A

Reuniclus ---> colored as ---> Drilbur

This one had to be eay, I kinda gave it to you because you had like just enough shades... But the eyes are incomplete, they are like a tetris block, but they are supposed to look rounded. B (It is half way between B and B+)

Luxray ---> colored as ---> Magmortar

Really this one was really good, you had more shades than needed, and only one thing bothered me. I know you probably correctly did it and I am just not seeing it; but On the leg, it loks metally and there are shades of grey-ish color I cant find by looking at magmortar (The sprite). A-

Magmortar ---> colored as ---> Roserade

You said this one was your favorite. I think it is really good on the optimistic side, but on the pessimistic side you didnt follow the rules, but like they ay, "rules were made to be broken.". The way you did it was really complementing. Good. A

That concludes me to say.... PASS!

What would you like next?

I'm just going to repost this, incase you haven't saw it

Here's my assignment

I'm also going to repost mine, in case you haven't seen it.

Relicanth as unfezant

clamperl as liligant

loudred as drowzee

flaafy as scolipede

drapion as gyrados

Guys, please don't repost assignments. It's not that I missed you, it's just I haven't really gotten around to doing much of anything with this school lately. I'll see if I can get some grades and assignments out today.

I would like to take the basic colouring class ^^just to hone my skills, (which are pretty bad xD)
and then later I will move up to other classes ^^

Hell, I am going to allow Syra to teach you, because I think that evens it out, BUT if he wants I will mentor you.

then I will wait for his descition

I wanted to re-enroll, please. I have been out for a while, but I think I was on advanced recoloring. I can show you my basic recoloring test stuff, but I don't remember how to post them.

Hello
Since there aren't any scratch lessons (Silver , you should teach them)
I think I'll enroll in basic recolours :3

I just got a new student so Syra can have you, if he can't I will teach.

Can I makes teh sprites on my Android?

I am sorry, but if you can cut sprites parts, recolor the exact color of of another sprite, or save to PNG... No. D:

Can I join for basic recolors I have done a bit already

LIGHTFIYR!
I apologize, I couldn't be one this weekend and before that I forgot..........


So this is it


This is okay but This one has offness... I will say more in advice. B


Like I said, you put the dark where the light is and the light where the dark is. B- ish



This one is good, just remember to replace everything. A-

You dont really NEED to make a pallet but if you just go from lightest to darkest like I said you will be fine.

Hey team plasma i am going to away for two weeks so it will be a bit before I can get them done

It is all good.

Since it's been a while since I did anything on here, I'd like to know if it'd be possible for me to take the basic recoloring test, even though I've only done a few assignments (you can look back in this thread as proof of how many/few assignments i've done.)

here's some extra stuff i've done to show I might hopefully be ready for a test:

I like to call this one Jolteon US (no, the US does not stand for United States. Try again). Basically, it's a Jolteon recolored as a shiny umbreon.

This one is an emolga recolored as a rampardos. Weird grouping, yeah, I know, but it works and my brother gave me the idea.

I forgot what my assignment was. What was it?
