Okay, so I have finally have enough time to sit down and quality check these. 

 

So, unfortunately, I'm going to have to turn down a lot of these. I've put them in my GG to quality check and a lot of them have a ton of shading issues/color usage issues and I do not have the time to fix all of this.

-- Doduo/Dodrio

The doduo's coloring is pretty off. The lightest shade in the original sprite is now the darkest for some reason? You used purple for

the outline, which doesn't work because the blue is so bright that it contrasts. The saturation difference between the legs/beak/neck are too great.

Blue should never be this bright, tbh. It's one of those colors that really hurts the eyes if they're too...lit up. 

 

-- Voltorb/Electrode

For Voltorb and Electrode, the coloring is fine here, but I think we could do so much more with it. I.e. mocking a different type of Pokeball. That and there are probably too many yellow shinies at this point. 

 

-- Snorlax

I really like Snorlax, though. So I think I'm going to keep this one. (I'm a fan of Totoro, okay)

 

-- Slowpoke/Slowbro

Although I think the Homer Simpson idea is clever, it's just extremely overdone and I think we could do something more original with it. 

 

--Exeggcute/Exeggutor

Exeggcute is fine, but I'm not satisfied with Exeggutor. It's barely changed other than the coconut head. Which I get is the point, but I don't think it's better

than the original shiny. We could do more with this. 

 

--Electabuzz

The idea of negative/blue-black Electabuzz is insanely cool, but the sprites suffer from the same coloring issues that Doduo suffers from. 

 

- Gastly Line

 I think this one is your best work, tbh. These are really cool and they stand out pretty well. These are approved. 

 

So that leads us to the options you can take. You can go back and redo/fix the errors of these sprites, or you can withdraw and open them up to the public for others to work on.  (You will still be given credit for working on them). 

 

Either option I do really appreciate your help, and I'm really sorry if this came out to be overly critical/harsh. This is not my intention. I just want the best

quality possible when it comes to Rejuvenation.

It is perfectly understandable, at the beginning I barely knew how to sprite. My main goal with this is to make shiny sprites of the highest quality possible.

 

About Exeggutor, I intended to make it look as much as a coconut tree as possible without maling the torso and heads being too similar, but it couldn't be too different from the original that way. That being said, I'll look into it and differentiate it a bit more.

 

Homerbro just seemed hilarious to me, but I can give it another shot, to make it slightly more original.

 

Might Gai's take on Electabuzz is already great, in my opinipn, so I believe you should go with that.

 

For Voltorb and Electrode I aimed to make them look like the overworld TM icons, as the idea of making them look like pokeballs didn't seem that original to me. I can give it another shot tho.

 

I'll also fix the Blue Birds group as soon as I can.

/late but The shading on the front-sprite's leaves are backwards. The top/center of the leaves are supposed to be lighter while the bottoms are dark, as in the back sprite. The others in the line are fine

 

Lotso neat stuff here, almost wanna make stuff myself

Oops, did I? Well, they were really good so they're approved. So is the Electabuzz! It looks really nice.

He actually fixed the bellsprout for you so it's all good. Krabby and Kingler are good. Approved.

I believe they may be done now, unless recoloring needs to be done so shading is darker.

If you make the colors a little darker like this:

It will be perfect. Generally if you zoom out and can't notice the shading, then it's probably not proper shading.

So I think it's pretty appropriate to show my own work here. So here are Geodude, Graveller and Golem.

 

b2dyKqz.pngeNcIdiz.pngb84t2lT.png

These are based off of Jasper from Steven Universe. The last one is based on corrupted Jasper. If you don't know, I'm actually a huge Lucahjin fan. In her HGSS LP, she caught a Geodude and named it Jasper. So that's what gave me inspiration to make these three. I still think they need a little bit of work, but for now this is what they look like.

You're right, it looks a lot better now. I'll keep your tips in mind when recoloring more sprites in the future.

Edit: Ignore this last one, I can't remove it from the uploaded files.

I would like to do Gyarados and Magikarp. It might take a short while though.

No rush! Quality over quantity.

Okay, so I noticed something else while QCing these. I lowered the saturation to around 151 on the pink so it would be less... In your face. 

 

Pink is one of those dangerous colors to use. If it's too bright/saturated it can overpower the sprite. If you lower it a bit, you'll notice that the gold body stands out more.

I already did that to all of these sprites so you don't have to worry about it, but I think you should do it to at least zubat to see what I mean.

Overall, very nice job! Marked as completed.

Approved!

Also it's been made more clear that the Machop (Except for Machamp. That one is finished) line is open.

 

We're almost done! Only a few more shinies left to go and then we're done with Gen 1!

@Guzam was going to work on Primeape a while back after he finished the Mankey, but he never submitted it so I've matched it to his Mankey.

Check near the middle of page 6. Jan can take this one though if he wants because I've been busy.

I had two ideas for Voltorb and Electrode:

Premier Ball and Cherish Ball

Baseball and Basket ball.

 

EDIT: Did the front of Golduck too:

Fedora or no fedora?

Doduo with different shading. If it's good now I'll move on to the backsprites.

Thank you so much :D

 

oh, and as a joke thing, I messed around with doduo's sprite XD I know it was claimed already but I was just messing around while I waited to get shellder and cloyster :P

Personally I think it's cute, but it was more of "lets pass the time" than actual spriting. Do with it as you will, or don't do anything. Idc owo/

 

 

Now off to work on Shellder and Cloyster :D

Magikarp and Gyarados are finally done! I made them look like the dimensional rift Gyarados, just a little less demonic.

Also Jan, I noticed that Grimer and Muk were credited under MakaTorracat, even though I made them. (That is, if my sprites were accepted, but I think that was the case.)
Anyways, it doesn't seem like there's anything left that hasn't already been claimed. So I guess -if they get accepted- these are my last gen 1 sprites.

Okay... So, service announcement!

 

I'm going to be taking over for a bit because unfortunately, Jan's computer broke down last night due to overheating, and hasn't started up since.

No worries though; it's not a hard drive issue so no progress of his work has been lost-- And even if it was, he'd have backups ready! It's more so that his power supply has died and needs a replacement, so he'll be absent for several days until his computer works again. Until then, he's put me in charge of quality control of your edits.

 

I'll take a look at some of the sprites tomorrow, but let's all hope for Jan that he gets his computer fixed as fast as possible!
