oh gosh, i love the sound of this so much

i have such nice friends on fl

@Nodocchi: the innovator

it's amazing how much of a difference a little shading can make

i've been struggling trying to make a background for this for a while now, and i'm almost suspecting i might actually be happy enough with this

that could also be cognitive dissonance though, oops

#spanking

i'm getting pretty close! just gotta clean it up, shade it, and maybe add a background of some kind~

i'm actually pretty happy with how this snivy has gone so far!

my snivy are usually slightly uncanny, but i might have figured it out..!

backgrounds are hard

after trying to get used to clip studio paint, i have to say, oh gosh how i miss sai's vectoring

you can tweak it and clean it up so easily, and you never actually have to erase lines, so if you want to tweak it again, you can just remove some of the mask from your best lines instead of having to redraw them

i really gotta get better at more dynamic poses

i really like bayleef's shirt

oof, that took *forever* without vectors

i used azpainter for this, and i had to do all kinds of silly things to get similar results to my sai workflow

i did eventually figure out masking though (it only applies to things you draw after setting the mask)

also, surprisingly difficult thing: oshawott with headphones

yeah! i can probably use this! ^^

maybe something like this would do..?

hmm...

let's go eievui!

success!

though admittedly the palette wasn't in the data file, so i couldn't follow along the extraction of it--it's just a big vector without reason

the way i wanted to *try* and find the palette and extract it turned out to be correct though! it just wasn't anywhere i could possibly do that

i also wrote the flags for each tile into their filenames, since there's no other way to express them meaningfully right now

aaaand i've successfully managed to extract images from this binary, like in the post!

i'll work on the palette later, but this is really cool!

oh, i did write a thing to make hexl measure ranges, in case anyone besides me ever needs to do that:

(defun hexl-measure-region ()
"Measure how large the active region is."
(interactive)
(when (region-active-p)
(save-excursion
(let ((point (hexl-current-address)))
(exchange-point-and-mark)
(let ((diff (abs (- point (hexl-current-address)))))
(exchange-point-and-mark)
(message "Range is %d bytes (0x%08x)" diff diff))))))

to make things niftier, i've been following along in a language i'm bad at
