Welp. I've begun trying to make some new Mario sprites, somewhat inspired by the SMBSS Mario/Lou Albano Mario. So far, I've got two standing poses, and a run cycle.

Hey, that looks pretty good! The only thing that seems off is the eyes.

I really like it, but the red parts look kind of flat compared to the rest of the sprite. I think it's not as much an issue with the hat as it is with the belly, as that is one of the roundest and most voluminous parts of him.

I meant shading wise, but the belt does help show form on the stomach so more shading might not be needed anymore on the stomach because of the belt :D

Does this help any? [img]http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/483395RunBelt.gif[/img]
