Marine The Raccoon sprites Sonic robo blast 2 style.

ms paint or not, it still reeks of premade tools and default colors with no further thought whatsoever.

I don't expect the greatest job ever from you; you're a beginner and you know it. But I also don't like the way you use it to justify your job, it's like saying 'yeah I'm bad,so what?'. that not only is rude with the people who gave you criticism, it als oshows you really don't care about improving at all (I hope I'm wrong here, because of obvious reasons).

MS Paint is not 'depricated' or whatever how you spell it if people knows how yo use it, a big part of tSR uses it and churns out quality pixelart. An artist shall never blame the tools he uses.

Whichever program you use, my criticism, as well as Bombshell's, are valid and you should read them carefully in order to improve.

Of course I care about improving.

Believe it or not. I spend 2 days making those sprites (Not 2 whole days but anyway)

And I'm not trying to be rude to people. In fact. I'm trying to be nice against them. But I can't take critism in such a good way. That's why I'm maybe rude sometimes.

And I was just saying. I didn't really ment about the mspaint thing. Of course I know people still use it. And I don't judge other people on which program they use.

But for me. MSpaint just doesn't work.

And about the default colors? That's a way too big step for an noob like me.
For now. I can sprite better doing it with much colors. Shadows and shaders are yet too difficult for me.

And why am I saying I'm bad? Becuase I am. And all I want. Is that one day. I will make some great sprites. Get positieve feedback from it, people ask if they can use it in their games, etc.

I just want you guys to see these sprite as a practise to get better in the future. I sure could use some tips. But I did do alot of effort for this.

also, please make the background a less blinding color
it makes the sprites themselves hard to see

a nice, dull gray-blue should work well

I'm using a light blue background becuase the color becomes transparent in the Doom-engine.

I'm not sure if that's even using the SRB2 Pallete.

No it's indeed not using the SRB2 pallete.

Becuase palletes are still a little bit of a big challenge for me. I need to improve other things first.
