Just a note, I'll do the other 4 and trainer before starting to apply your crit, I want to have the brute sprites done first, and after that perfected. But thanks for your crits dudes, they will eventually be used 
To respond a little more individually-
Yutaka- I'm going to revamp the pose entirely, Smeargle nromally always holds the paintbrushtail. I was trying to reverse the normal Smeargle pose, but possible exaggerated. Thanks
Metaru- most definitely it will :b
Gorsal- I know this is something awkward to ask, but could you show me in an edit a suggestion to fix the eye? since smeargle's head has an odd shape, I cant do a good eye. I'll tinker with it later, but a visual example would help.
Tyvon- The shading will be redone, particularly on the tail. I've been noted of the contrast elsewhere, I'll try to use a Sonic pallette instead of the pokemon one. and I suppose you mean that there is too much gray outline? I'll look into that. as for the head, it's not quite sugimori-esque,. but these are more based on how I draw them. Still, I'll see what I can do.
