woops, he won't say it now.

Also sprite sheets it's not just 1 sprite.

Right, but he needs to focus on fixing the base sprite before moving onto the rest of the poses.

Pillow Shading is when you go outlining the darkest shade to the brightest, which is generally: Shading just for shading.
Shades are used to show curvature in a sprite. Use shading to show bumps/Shapes that are on the object, or else it means that object is flat. Add highlights to also give a sense of shape on a sprite. Limit yourself to colors more, you used an unnecessary 2 shades of brown. Goomba's usually have uni-brows and bigger eyes than that, but that might just be you giving him a scared expression. Use A.A.: Anti-Aliasing is when you use darker shades around the edges of the object to give it a sense of smoothness. A.A. doesn't neccessarilly have to be on the outside of a sprite, in fact, its recommended to be used more on the inside.Color contrast is how darker or lighter a shade is compared to another. It makes shading much more noticeable, which also leads to making your light-source more noticeable.

This is an edit of your sprite with all the fixes stated above, do not use it. Its just an example to help give you a better image:

MEGA GOOMBA UPDATE: Thx to IceMan404 I have done a bigtime update on the goomba!

Sure... Just warning the new guy... X3
Hey, I got a tip, try using PixelStudio, I saw on one of sites, and it's recommend! I don't used yet, because I'm logged on an Linux!

Not trying to be mean, but stop acting like because I'm new I'm stupid, ok?

[Saltonara]

I personally think it needs more contrast, but that's just me. Maybe.

all you did is recolor a bad example of shading.

recolor

Yes.

[Iceman404]

No, I wouldn't recommend that. Paint is the best. By far. And its easy to use.
And nice update, but I'm feeling that the eyes are too close together, the torso/stomach is too thin now, and the Feet should have shading too.

I'm not saying you're stupid, but if you said...
It's tips, if you don't want tips, sure okay, I will not gonna give tips, never...
That's what you need? Be a nice guy please!

No! Its based off of the example, not a recolor! I based mine on the example!

Weegee, take Iceman's principles of shading and lighting and try to include it into your sprite. Smoothen out the outlines as well.

[gabrielwoj]

No, I wouldn't recommend that. Paint is the best. By far. And its easy to use.

Paint works on linux? I use linux, and I want to know if works...
Also, I think for the pros is that program I cited, if that someone with problems with shading, or is not good at computers, Paint is the solution!
Go grab it!

Well, you did steel my eyes, A.A. example, and pull the shades across 1 more pixel.
EDIT: But it doesn't matter. It actually looks better. But consider what I stated above!

I'm feeling that the eyes are too close together, the torso/stomach is too thin now, and the Feet should have shading too.
