The VG Resource

I really need to get better, as I plan on entering a national game-creation competition next year and can't find a spriter. Thus, I plan on making everything myself. Furthermore, I would like to make these graphics of actually good quality. So I am making various sprites to better myself.

Here is a pretty crappy Machop in some kind of fighting stance:


And here is a pretty basic Astrogoomba:


I would like to focus on the Machop as I can't really sprite humanoids that well. Major C + C is needed!

*try adding more detail into your sprites
*There is no shading on either sprite
*try using a better pallete
also take more time in making your sprites and use refrences to differenciate your sprite from another machop/goomba sprites

Oh, I should have probably stated that these are WIPs, and I don't want to shade until I get the right lineart. This is mostly about lineart. Thanks, though
