as koopaul said, no matter how good you *think* you are. you simply do not understand what the hell you are doing with these.
it would be the same with an edit of any other prerendered sprite, for example, mortal kombat.
they arent sprites, they're 3D models who have been color reduced to fit the snes's hardware limitations. therefore, in order for you to create an sprite edit of these, you'd need to replicate exactly how the elements would look on the original model from where the renders were sampled. wich you clearly cant do without actually making an exact replica of the original 3D model.
the results is a sloppy, completely off result wich looks at first look "ok". but detail wise it simply looks terrible.
in all honeslty, you're better making either a 3D model of DK completely new from scratch, or an actual hand drawn sprite. Prerendered sprites were an ugly fad that lasted for longer than it should had.
