Wanted some C+C on these.

My comments about the sprite's blandness and general lack of anything of interest are the same I gave you back then: The color palette is bland and insipid, even after you told me the sprite is supposed to be "Dark" and meant to be used on a "dark, evil and deep" game world.
A more vivid color palette should do wonders here, I mean just take a look at any Castlevania game and you will notice how the main protagonist always uses vivid colors to make it stand, even if he's in a dark and evil-looking game.
