OK, I must bow before the almighty master of spriting. (Puts on fake wise Chinese guy beard) you are ready young one (bows, then rips off fake beard). Ok, PF, make this guy spriter before I go crazy(er) and form an angry mob.

I tame the burninators.

Here's how the Slakoth line really goes through evolution:

Slakoth drinks a Red Bull, causing it to get hyper and evolve into Vigoroth.
The caffeine rush ends, causing Vigoroth to evolve into Slaking.

@trogdor: Blank post?

OK, PF, I'll give it another shot. I have been spriting for little over six months, and even if I'm denied again, at least I've gained a new skill that will bring me challenges for years to come. So, PF Staff, give me your honest opinion, am I ready to be one of your spriters?

Judging by your above sprites: almost.

You're got a lot better at spriting skills, but you still need to improve on your general art. Some parts of the outlines look wrong, and the dirt just looks weird. Pluss the noses apear to all be dirrerent sizes, and Digglet's doesn't look rounded properly..

But don't take it too negatively, you're very nearly there. Show us some sprites of original pokemon.

Diglett's nose is actually a stretched version of the DP-sprite; at least that's what it seems, noticing the highly familiar shading and all. The stretchyness makes it looks odd. And that's also why we need to see more custom-made pokémon from you, but with better shading like the Diglett sprites.

Hmmm...strange that, Diglett's nose was custom, I suppose with such a small amount of pixels used on it and the exact same colours, the shading could easily have turned out the same.

I'm working on a new sprite, completely custom and I'll post it as soon as I can.

I'm about half way done, I just need to add the sludge (don't ask) and the extra colours.

Here's that sprite, I dunno how it'll go down, it looks all over the place but that's because his sludge shifts as he moves to provide camouflage. With a pair of powerful legs, horns and a spear-like beak, I present, the Bog Chicken, Manoxidren:

I made the sprite on a pretty old computer and it looked amateur, but on my high-def laptop it looks better. I just noticed the problem on the wing though.

That's good! Really good! I think that you may be the next spriter! Oh, well, there's room for a concept artist someday, Gelatop, some....day....

Don't lose faith, Gelatop. When the final verdict comes on whether Mr. Smeargle with be the spriter, I'm planning on applying for staff.

I tame the burninators.

Yep. I see you used Houndoom's R/S horns along with Ho-Oh's beak. Unfortunately, by using those it doesn't count as a scratch sprite any more. It is true that, in the past, some of our sprites were done that way, but nowadays it is not acceptable, except on special pokémon like gags or SEs that require modifying a previously existent pokémon. As for the rest, you've still got some issues regarding smoothness in the lines, this is particularly notable in the bottom half of the legs. The wings look very different from one another. I can't comment on your use of shading since I'm not experienced with D/P sprites.
