Oh look, a wizard!
#21
I'm not trying to defend the sprite. I'm perfectly willing to change it. The only reason I'm not improving the character's design is because I just wanted something to sprite, and picked a character of mine I created a while ago. I only wanted to sprite that character in an RPGish style, and not redesign the character as a whole. I have other characters and ideas that are far more original, but I just felt like spriting this.

I'm asking for tips on how to make it not seem pillowshaded. All I have so far is: "It looks pillowshaded" and "It looks ugly". Okay, there's something wrong with it, but if I didn't notice it myself, how am I meant to know how to fix it if you just tell me it looks bad?

The light sources thing wasn't talking about one sprite. I was referring to a tileset, and the suggestion by 1up that the lightsources can be different for tiles and characters, and I was simply asking for clarification on this.

I'm not trying to defend the sprite or ignore criticism. The only reason it seems that way is that without a positive aspect to criticism (ie. how I can fix it, rather than just what's wrong), I have no clue what the fuck I'm supposed to do.
