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
#not art#sad but unfortunately that is the way it is#tried working on Growlithe and Arcanine today and my wrist said no so I'm doing the smart thing and quitting#take care of your bodies folks or your body will make you

"It lives in treetop colonies, and is rarely seen outside of rampages. If one becomes enraged, the whole group rampages for no clear reason."

#0052 - Meowth

Ran out of buffer (aka finished sprites) so here are some alternate versions of recent sprites to tide you guys over.
Tiny Golbat:
(rejected because it was the same size as Zubat, had to be redone entirely)
Oddish without markings:
(instantly ups the Oddish-ness but removes Ghost type)
Zappy Paras:
(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)
#random dex#golbat#oddish#paras#I can't get Meowth and Persian to work and it's so stupid because they're so so easy#I just can't find a pose for them I like#and my brain refuses to cooperate with them if the pose doesn't click#wow Tumblr does Not make it easy to add alt text to images this small. but I think I got it

#pokemon#fakemon#Zubat#Golbat#pokemon type swap#pokemon retype#pokemon variations#pokedex challenge#random dex#ground type#dark type#gen 1#fun fact: I did the Golbat sprite twice because I scaled it based only on the gen 5 sprite despite the different angle#and then when it was done I put it next to Zubat and realized it was basically the same size. whoops.#so I ended up scaling it up a good bit and redoing it entirely

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.
#ask dark#tbh I'm not sure there's a general etiquette beyond the standard 'don't repost art'#asking people for permission if they don't have anything noted is always safe option#not art
