Alright, yeah, the Mankey line was the last one for a bit. My wrist is still healing from surgery earlier this year and although spriting is a lot easier on it than drawing, it has definitely been adding up so I'm gonna ease up and drop the daily posts again. I'll be sure to build up a proper buffer again next time, too. 馃憤

Ran out of buffer (aka finished sprites) so here are some alternate versions of recent sprites to tide you guys over.
Tiny Golbat:
Tumblr media
(rejected because it was the same size as Zubat, had to be redone entirely)
Oddish without markings:
Tumblr media
(instantly ups the Oddish-ness but removes Ghost type)
Zappy Paras:
Tumblr media
(added electricity to make them more obviously Electric type, then felt like it was a cop-out and left it out of the final version)

Hello. Are people allowed to rp with your fakemon? I really wanted to say one of my ocs has your redown Butterfree but I'm not really sure of fakemon etiquette.
Hi! I'm fine with my redesigns being used in RPs and such as long as credit is given, and my images/sprites aren't reposted. If you have some a reference post of some sort (or an about me, or whatever, I'm not sure how RPing works on Tumblr), you could add the credit note there, so you don't have to @ me every time you mention Butterfree/Buzzerfae in a post.
