Jappio's Splicing Tutorial

[~JG~]

Jappio, i would have given you a rep for this tutorial but i'm not so sure that you deserve it after what you said about my splice. But you are partly right because i did just copy and paste. And i've never been genius with a computer so the recolouring bit was a bit to complicated but i will try again later. You should see the 2 i've made after that first one. They're a bit better. Please tell me what you think of them.

Yes, i know one of them is similar to your tutorial splice but it seemed like nice one to get started with. And about the black around the sprite i actually just clicked that paint bucket and set to white and clicked on the black. Phew, I think thats the longest post i've ever made.


P.S. You still get your rep

[Jappio]

Honestly, I don't care if you give me a rep or not, I see them as pointless. Also if you plan on doing any form of art or anything, be ready for critique. I do critique knowing a lot of people like the harshness, it gets what is wrong out there, allowing the artist know how to improve. I use to just sit around and not even look at other people's sprites. I now look around and try to help people, because I know I would want the same.

Well once again you had some bordering issues, like on Poliwhirl and the Nuzleaf legs. Also it's fine that you used those pieces, it makes it easier for you tell how you are doing. Some things like the arms are put on pretty bad. Also I don't like how the leaf is on it, it really isn't even growing out of it, just hovering over its head. As usual, it could use some recoloring, and perhaps there is an easy guide you can find somewhere else.

The second one isn't actually too bad. The lack of recoloring I think is Ok on some things, like Regi fusions. It still has a few problems though. The legs are on weird, and there is a weird indent behind the right leg (our right). The left arm looks weird the way is attached. If done a bit better, it could look cool, but the problem would be the other arm doesn't do it also. There is a weird black splotch on the top left corner of the head too, and the far left dot on the head ahs some dark blotch too.

Hope you don't find this critiquing offensive, I honestly am trying to help you though.

It's ok now i've learned to be able to take critique as long as they do it for a reson.

[Legendary Tapion]

i want to make splices soo bad but i can't read it the text is...gone -.-"

[Tefached]

a great tut, if i had this when i started instead of a crappy youtube video....i'd probably would have started out better than how i did

[Teh Sm3xy Slave]

Wow Thank you so much!! I am going to use this, but how come you save as PNG?

Edit: What I Made...
Octillery + Sharpedo
What do you think?

[XDRangePureX]

Thank you OMG!

here's my first splice:



Breloom + Cradily
lol

[Jappio]

I don't know what you mean by the text being gone mooth, it's there right now.

You did a fairly nice job with Octillary+Sharpedo Synthiea. The main problem I find is that there is very little Sharpedo in this splice. The only other problem I can see with it would be the fin's position, don't look exactly right, it doesn't look like its going in the same direction as Octillary.

7/10.

Also we save as .PNG because file types like .JPEG make the sprite look horrible. .PNG makes it so all the pixels and stuff say the same. .JPEG things distort colors and pixel placement.

XDRangerPureX that is a very ummm.... interesting image. I think you missed the point of the tutorial, this is for sprites. I would rate it, but it isn't really a sprite so I really am not able to do such a thing.

[Teh Sm3xy Slave]

ok...
that makes alot of sence...

[Chinotornes]

Great tut! sure beats the crappy youtube video i was trying to learn off. i reckon i will give it a shot.
