Yup. Your Basic Recolors exam.

I did a Charlemeon for the guard, but the torch fire is courtesy of Charmander.







EDIT: A gift for teach

You know what? I think it's high time that I learn how to do fusions better. After all, my fusions are...well...meh.

So anyways, it says I have to pass basic recolors first, so may I enroll in that?

Right, here it is. I think Darkrai went out well, although I'm feeling a little shaky about the other two. If I did, in fact, pass, I'd like to roll right into the Advanced Recoloring Class.

If I may say so, Syracuvat Tenlii, your sprites are really good

My Recolors exam:

Yeah, could you go ahead and give me the exam right off the bat?

Hooray! Thank you!

You aren't female? O: Then, the gender on your bar is incorrect? (Sorry!)

Also, is it possible I could take Revamps and Devamps together? (The way Pillowshades was included in Infernoes.)

Okay, I think I've got it right now...maybe. If this isn't it, I'm going to need some help with this one, probably.

That's correct.

Ahhhhhh, I see. Could I please take Revamps, then?

Alright, I got it done! Hopefully it's good... I'm unsure of my shading skill. ^^;;



That Poliwag was hard... It's scratched, right?

These are a little odd, I'll admit. Not much to be said about the Liepard. I was going for a summer beach feel with the sandy and hint of blue with Bayleef. I used Autumn-like colors with Grovyle (I think this one's my best). The Miltank just turned out weird. I was trying to color it like a brown cow to be a little more original, but I'm not sure if it even looks right 8P.

That was actually kinda fun.


Don't really know about Rayquaza, though... Also, If I pass, I would like to take Advanced Recolor.

Okay, I hope this is better~

Shiny, sorry about the little gender mixup -embarrassing-

Here are the next batch of trainers:


I think there was too much yellow on her.


I remembered to alter the shading on the bone since i switched it's direction.


This one's a bit confusing, there's so much stuff on her.

Here's my exam.

Yay! Well, then. Now, I'd like to take the Fusion course, please. :>

Here they are. I think I'm getting the hang of this.

I think I'll go for the exam. This is what I came here for in the first place. Bring it on, Shiny.

I won't have my assignment done for a while, just so you know. Things just got real busy and I won't have time. I'll get to it when I can though.

Sorry about not updating this again.
Like many others, school is real close for me, and l've been busy getting prepared. Plus l have many relatives who were born in August, so l have to go celebrate with them and whatnot.
Sorry, but school and family always goes before anything else for me.

l'll have this updated later tonight or tomorrow for sure. :]

i got a question on how to make a banner look more PRO. Like your elektross banner in your sig. The only ones i can make are like my "VS kakashidragon" banner or things close to that kind of banner. I only have windows paint and For certin reasons i cant upgrade to another paint program.

Banners aren't exactly my forté. Only advice l can give you is to not use MS Paint if you wanna make a good banner.
You can download GIMP or Paint.NET for free, which are great and commonly used for creating banners.

Since l can't exactly tell you how to improve, l suggest googling for tutorials on Google or dA to help you out.

I know how to do it, it just sucks th eonly thing i can use is MS Paint. I cant download anpther paint program cause my dand parents wont let me.

Ah, same here, Shiny. I'm actually born in August, along with a whole bunch of other people I know, then there's school and an audition for an orchestra. I might not have my assignment ready for awhile.

Same as Yuxume said, I won't have my final done until, well, you assign it but seriously; probably no until the weekend.

I'd LOVE to enroll. I was never a good hand-drawing artist, and this piques my interest. Although, I lack a computer at the time, although I can sometimes use my friends' and families' computers, so bring it on!

Here they are. I think they came out good for the most part, but the Flygon guy looks like the right-hand wing is put on weird.. And contrary to what will be popular belief, I DID recolor the Luxray guy. I couldn't find anywhere to add more than the tail, though, so he looks really plain.

Right, here they are.
Lopunny was a ***** to put a grass skirt on, but I managed to pull it off somehow.
Happiny turned out alright, but then I realized "wait a minute! This is the freaking EASTER bunny!" So I made the egg green. Hope you like it!
Espeon was refreshingly easy. I did, however, decided to get rid of the gem on its forehead, since most cats I know don't have a jewel encrusted on it 8P.
If this is to your liking, then I'd like to try an exam.

Wow, things have gone pretty slow for the past few days here. Not to worry, though! I've finally finished my exam. I was really busy this week...and a little lazy too 8P.
I tried to follow the style of the mirage, and I'm not certain if that's what you meant.
I did play around with giving some stray markings on Mewtwo to make it look different.
The white Mew's torso and red on its arms and tail are meant to be the robe, by the way.

Okay, I think I got it better this time. Rather than arbitrarily screwing around with the shading (which is what I did last time) I employed a pattern and altered the shading accordingly. I added a stripe going down the head, but I'm not certain if it came out right.

1 attached image

It looks a lot better. :]
Congratulations. You pass!

Yahoo! Alright, I may as well use my knowledge of Recoloring to move on into the Revamping Class.

Hey Shiny since LQ is banned, you are the only sprite teacher now correct?

Hmm. I think I get it how it works. It's a little difficult to judge where exactly you change shading, especially with Omanyte, where I had to convert 1 shade into 3 different ones. I think it turned out alright, though.

That took me forever to get the recolor tool working. Welp, here ya go! (I got stuck on Pidgey, 'cuz he and Totodile have similar body colours. I uploaded it anyways.)

I THINK I figured it out this time. I noticed that my last submission looked flat because of its original shading style. Now I understand what you meant by "editing the shading." I think it turned out better this time. Let me know if it improved any!

I didn't take too much time to look over my sprites after having finished them, so I may have made a couple mistakes and missed them.

3 attached images

Well I really would love to do trainers but I have to do recolors first so I would be delighted to recolor .


So contact me ASAP and we can get started!

Ooh, boy. I think Ariados turned out pretty great and Slowbro was alright, but I honestly had no idea what to do with Haunter. Haunter's probably not good enough to pass, so I'm gonna need some pointers for what to do with it.

Exam please!

Well then. Your exam is:
Mewtwo as Giratina
Deoxys as Darkrai
Articuno as Entei

How is it!?!

I want to apply for fusions!

Right, I think I've gotten the hang of this. I'm ready for an exam if you think I am.

I dont really like them

I'd like to enroll in revamp and devamp, but to do those, I have to enroll in basic recolor, right? I guess I'll enroll for that.

I kinda like them... the 3rd one is kinds sloppy!!

I think it turned out pretty well.
The wings were really hard to redo after realizing that I had to make actual flesh-wings with fire emanating from them, and I'm not sure if the right wing looks correct.
Lugia went out alright overall. I ended up keeping some of the original shading, you might notice, mainly because a lot of it was the shading I was planning on having. I didn't keep everything, though, obviously. The tips on the might be a little sloppy, and I'm not sure how to fix it.
Mewtwo was not too difficult overall, except the eyes. I have no idea how they pulled the eye off with the original shading, and I ended up having to almost completely copy the shading of the Gen V sprite, which turned out a lot better than what I had originally used.

If this allows me to pass, I would like to move away from Generation shifts for a little bit and enroll in the Infernoes class.

Here

I want to practice some more

The Yanmega was WAY terrible so I saved you the time....

Tyran: not my best, I could only think of switching a few things...

Braviary: Mixed with Fearow, I gave it colors from both, he mouth is a little messes up :[

Galvantuala: In a nutshell, It is supposed to be a Grass/Bug type, I liked it :]

I think I understand the concept of pillow-shading now. I don't think this class will take as long as the others.

I would like to enroll in retypes!

Snivy: tried to make him like a dinsaur!
Osha: Self explanatory
Tepig: I tried to base him around leaves... so look for that

I wasn't sure what you were talking about or how to fix it, so I decided to examine your crobat inferno and reverse-engineer it, and it all made sense.
