Judging
Dad Shunta: Son welcome to the family business of judging I want you to try your first time

Son Shunta: Oh boyo oh boyo Ok I won't dissapoint you father!

Lizz [D] Nothing really makes me think of water when I see the sprite, that right there is a big grade factor. I think of ice when I see this sprite because of the colors and the spikes, I think you should have edited the arms and legs to look more aquatic like. Also you didn't recolor the yellow tone which is another bump on the grade and gives it a really unfinished feeling to it recolor that to a light blue color and that will make it more water like again. Try to add more and do more I recommend spending more time on your sprites instead of entering them too early and not giving the sprite a finished look.

Amish robot [D] The fire isn't very well done and yet again we have another unfinished sprite. You gave Gyrados a darker shade of blue and that color is really hard to bull off as a fire type and the Cydaquil line is the only one feel could really pull it off so I would recommend staying away from that unless you're an experienced spriter. Other than that there was not really much added so I give you this advice. Try to add more and do more I recommend spending more time on your sprites instead of entering them too early and not giving the sprite a finished look.

Stopsign [D-] Ok I see that it is water but, you did nothing but recolor and add poorly scratched water. Try to look at other sprites that use water effectively as it's a tricky thing to sprite and sometimes I have trouble doing it. So yet again I give this advice. Other than that there was not really much added so I give you this advice. Try to add more and do more I recommend spending more time on your sprites instead of entering them too early and not giving the sprite a finished look.

MickeyV [C] I think rock when I see the "ice" and water when I see the colors, the stuff that was done on the side makes no sense whats so ever and doesn't look as good as it's original design. While I greatly appreciate the effort you took try to make it look its type by paying attention to other ice types and adding things that they have.

Leoina [C+] I really think this sprite has some good potential! I like the base colors that were added giving it an immediate fire touch and the fire positioning is great also but, the fire itself is very lacking and is what stops the sprite very short. Another thing is I would have liked it if you would have removed the roses completely instead of just turning them into fire, maybe turn it into a steam like Monferno. Next time try to look at other Pokémon sprites fires and make it look like that rather that your own.

FossilHunter [B] While I appreciate the fact you choose Medicham a difficult 'Mon to retype regardless, you did not pull it off effectively. I see what you tried to do with the shading but it's lacking the texture you attempted which is a bush/ grassy feel right? Next time try dividing the areas with one of the darker shades, overall this is a good but average sprite with not much done.

Corey13 [B+] A magnificent idea that was what really gave you, your grade, however there is some minor lacking in this sprite holding it back.. Mainly the shading you have some basic grasp of it as I can see but not well enough especially noticeable on the ears. Re-shade them and that also would have been a great addition. I also think the tail would have been so much better if you edited it to be more fierce like and that would have made the sprite flow so much better, I think the recolor was very nice and it all around looks pretty good, make those changes I said and it can be an easy A sprite.

HiHi [D] You recolored the sprite and added flames. The recolor isn't so great it would have looked much better if the dark shade was lighter. Try to add more and do more I recommend spending more time on your sprites instead of entering them too early and not giving the sprite a finished look.

Squirrellord [B] A great sprite I know what you used and it defiantly looks rock. However there are some pretty big errors made in this sprite. You always want to try to Reshade you sprites otherwise there will be different light sources and different shading styles you unfortunately fell into this trap. Other than that it's very off setting how the rock suddenly end and I would defiantly fix that. Overall a good sprite but fell into some common spriting problems.

Teampokepimps[A] Easily my favorite of the round I absolutely love it and it's a really original idea. Let me just point out the flaws first, the first thing you put a little too much of the lightest shade and the second being the right side of the body not being fully rounded. Fix those flaws and you have an A+ sprite. You never needed to steal you have your own skill!

Hugs 4 Hackers [B+] Again this was my second favorite of this round but you fell into a major shading problem and it really consumed the sprite, you need to use some more of the lightest color and more of the darkest color and overall add some more shading. Also the leafs on the head need more of the darker shade again and look very 2-d. Overall with changes an easy A sprite!

Wilson7555 [Auto F] You have already entered this sprite and it's not a retype.

Caboose [D] You added front legs that have no relationship to ice. The recolor is nice and the tails is lacking shading and makes no sense. Try to add things that relate to the type your doing. Try to add more and do more I recommend spending more time on your sprites instead of entering them too early and not giving the sprite a finished look.

Ultimate Shadow [D+] A good recolor but, fusion wise, you didn't do much, you took of Wynaut's head bump and put some fangs and wings on it. Also, when I first saw this sprite, it didn't catch my eye as a ghost type, more of a flying type maybe. Over all an average sprite, nice recolor but the simplicity let you down.

Jjlopoo [B+] I love this sprite and it would have been much higher if I had actually got a steel impression from it. That aside I think you are really improving fast and have potential to become a great spriter. So next time try to think of the idea then the sprite you could have had an A- but your sprite not fully giving off steel is what threw it off.

Ty kingdom247 [A-] First off let me tell you by saying this sprite is based highly off artirtco's idea so I would make sure it's ok with him. The flaws being that the black outline with the dark yellow does not mix together and creates an area of noticeable difference. The other thing is the yellow on his lip is odd and the last thing is the shading on it's side the light shade is too big and could be narrowed down other than that good job. (you can sprite no need to steal!)

Lunaria [C-] First thing I'm going to say, the colors are too bright. Another thing is the head fire looks like it is part of the face that just looks wrong. I don't understand why putting tails on it would make it look fire-type. I like the fire on the legs but the fire on the tail looks like its behind the tail when it should be around the tail.

Father Shunta: Key words of the round-Try to add more and do more I recommend spending more time on your sprites instead of entering them too early and not giving the sprite a finished look. Aether I'll wait for you to judge mine to do the score board. I'm harsh but you guys can do beter!
