And Evil shall reign o'er all.

[Hoeloe]

research is a big part too

I may not have mentioned it, but it's not like I was just sitting here waiting for people to respond. I went through the entire directory of SNES sprites on the site, looking for anything remotely in a similar style to what I'm looking for, and analysed it for reference. I do research. I ask what you mean when research amounts to nothing. It may be a big part of spriting, and that's fine, but so is clear criticism.
