Quick update
a year ago
Just letting you all know I'm still working on stuff. I'm holding off on sharing anything for now, because I only want to upload stuff I think is good enough (which often changes in hindsight, but still) and because I don't want to spoil all the sprites before the full release of the romhack.
I was considering uploading the sprites of all of the Starters, but Venusaur is just not okay. Short legs, a wide body, a wide head and a big flower on top does not translate well to what I'm trying to do, at least not in a 64x64 pixel space. I've got something done with it, but it just feels subpar, honestly. None of the existing Venusaur sprites let me do what I really want to with it, so I might just have to go largely (or even fully) custom, which is a problem, considering my limited artistic skills (if you could even call them that). Charizard is done, though, and as I said in my previous journal post, Blastoise got a small upgrade from the version I posted here quite a while ago.
For a different reason, the Nidoking line is one I've been putting off. I was originally simply going to cut them from the final version, but I feel like they need to be included (for the full Kanto experience, or whatever). The question is, do I do to them what I did to the Hitmons (which basically means I end up with 2 Nidoqueens in the end), do I turn them into hyper-masculine versions of themselves (which is not something I imagine most people reading this would be into, considering you probably Watch me), or do I just leave them as is (which would be pretty boring)? This is something I've not made up my mind about.
Anyway, progress is slow and steady. I don't have a lot of time to work on this stuff, and I'm pretty slow when I actually do. But I'm going to keep at it bit by bit until everything is finished.
On another note, how about those leaks, huh? I'm glad I didn't start on Rapidash yet because, oh boy. Also, Octillery, really? I guess that means they might actually like my Omastar sprite... (Then again, the beak might not be ideal.) The memes have been pretty funny, if a little disturbing at times.
Anyway, bye!
