Description
I really wanted to give retro R/B/Y Pokemon sprites a go, so I did Frisk's base form first for practice. I couldn't seem to find any decent text tutorials on Google, so I had to reference Pikachu and the Bulbasaur line from Yellow for the colours and shading. I think he turned out alright for a first try. Having a very limited palette (4 total colours- green, light green, white, and black!) made it hard to convey that Frisk's ears and hind legs have a different, darker colour (orange, to be exact), but I tried <3If you have any tips, please share! I wouldn't mind doing more characters like this so all the tips I can get would help~

Go! Dragonair!

(Frisk would be a Normal type in this forme, Normal/Fight in his Attack forme, and Normal/Flying in his Flight forme, and as for level, I'd say a nice round 40)

As Pokemon sprites go, dear, it's really great! And for a first try too!

Maybe I used too much anti-aliasing? I didn't want to use too much black on him, and I have sort of an OCD about clean lines. I'll try to break it if I have to, lol. But thanks for the suggestion!

excellent job on this one mate. using the official sprites as reference for my G/S/C sprites. I'm pleasantly surprised with how this first go went for you. I can't wait to see more retro sprites from you. if you're going to try the G/S/C style next send me a message and I can definitely help you with it.

Honestly, this is really very nice! I love it! And for your first time making a Yellow sprite, it's really spectacular! I don't really know what I could give tips on! Perhaps using your dark green where the tail and face meet could help separate/differentiate them from each other. And maybe the highlight on the closest ear could be made into a complete line (there's a gap). But those are such minor details and might not even make any kind of difference! So don't worry, ha ha! Great work again!

Thanks! The small amount of colours and the anti-aliasing had me worried for while, considering I had no idea how to do the latter. I had to keep looking off Pikachu and Bulbasaur for help, lol!
Oh, I was wondering, if I had a character that primarily gray/silver, but had yellow and purple sections, would I still use the gray-green colours or should I use purple or yellow? His wings are purple, and are a huge part of the character. The yellow isn't as important (just horns), so I'm mentally narrowing it down to purple or the gray-green.
