MM styled Mario and Luigi

[Shawn]

Ya gotta start somewhere.

To get better with the style, using mega man as a base is advised but shouldn't be followed to a T. Liken it to "tracing", where it's a decent skill that a beginner can use for a while, but don't depend on it.

Also, why does every human sprite in this style have to be a recolor/edit of Mega Man? neither Dr. Light or Roll look like Mega Man, so why should Mario, Simon Belmont, etc?

If you want to receive positive reception, then try to be more original with the style.

NO, NO NO NO NO NO- we just said dont do edits at all. EDITS ARE A BIG FUCKING NO.

don't make such a big fucking deal out of it. a lot of us started off with edits, myself included. there's nothing wrong with it when youre new to spriting.
