Looks cool, if you make a Big Mario I can use this on my game.

Super bump but possible indie game?!

[quote="LuigiM9"]Super bump but possible indie game?![/quote] while the shading somewhat shows the light source (albeit poorly), the shading doesn't show depth. EDIT: just gave it a closer look. you have a color that's very very similar to the main shade, and might as well be same color as the main shade. also, [img]http://i.imgur.com/tyF3uVj.png[/img]

Pretty good, but this is a problem with a lot if your sprites - the ears and noses need to be shaded darker in their upper left pixels, instead of a flat shade of beige.

[quote="TiKi"]Pretty good, but this is a problem with a lot if your sprites - the ears and noses need to be shaded darker in their upper left pixels, instead of a flat shade of beige.[/quote] not necessarily. neither of those help portray depth or lightsource through the shading, in fact I think ear shading like that would throw off both elements of shading.

It does make them look rather flat and without a light source compared to the rest of the sprites.

[img]http://puu.sh/5jpp6.png[/img] tried 2 things. I prefer the old ones. I shade it that way to not just show depth or light source- but also for visual distinction. without the proper tone it looks incredibly flat and indistinguishable. having that random dark tone in the corner of the nose and ear also doesn't contribute to the shading. it just looks weird.

Although it may seem over, in reality it is not. [img]http://s24.postimg.org/9y7qnnhi9/Newer_Pikachu.png[/img]

Build Infinty?

[quote="Mors"]Build Infinty?[/quote] Nope

So I'm just gonna drop these off here I'm gonna try and refine the shading not too horribly, as well.

That is a very unique looking goomba you got there, LuigiM9. It could definitely use some better shading and more contrast, though (but you already said you are working on the shading).

Whenever I tweak the shading it feels overshaded so I might use a general NES-y look. (Also I was going for a general EB feel with the lineart. Did I accomplish that?)

It's a JPEG image.

[quote="Nacitendo Platinum"]It's a JPEG image.[/quote] Even though I actually uploaded it as PNG. Hm. At least it's harder to get stolen this way :P

I can still tell they are very nice sprites. You're lucky you're great at spriting [i]and[/i] programming.

I'm not picking Flame the Dragon back up yet, but I've been meaning to do this for a long time now: [img]http://i.imgur.com/xAuU0eQ.png?1[/img] Vultron (the main antagonist) has a new design (if you can call a species swap and slightly different coloration a "new design"), and title; design is still subject to change a little though. The halo plays a role in his new backstory, and I'll use special effects to make it glow in-game. The new blade's bit pillowshaded I know, so some help on fixing that would be knee-spankin' cool with me :P
