I hope you don't mind Bombshell but I edited your edit to illustrate another point.



What you guys have to understand is that the way his head was shaded implied the light was in front of him. It must be coming from above. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but practically nothing in M&L style shades shiny objects like that. Sometimes you have to sacrifice details like that for it to be in style. I made several changes based on things I think help it fit more into the style based on what I know about it. Most parts of the sprite also use 4 shades per color. A lot of it is AA to make everything really smooth. It's possible to find colors that do the job while not being pointless, so just hunt around for sprites with the same or similar color scheme you're going for. Among the things I changed, I tweaked the colors a little, modified the legs, changed his mouth plus gave him eyebrows for extra expression, and made him a pixel thinner as he is not that chunky. Hope that helps! (I spent way too much time on this...)

Also you should edit the thread title to mention something about M&L3 sprites so that Ridge/Starpower will know to look here.

EDIT: Forgot to make him shorter since he shouldn't be taller than Mario whoops. :I
