Pal, i like you. = j but yeah, i'm listening, and i'll work on what you guys say. but, right now, it's slowing me down immensely. i have an entire sheet to do, and i'm stuck on the first one because it keeps changing. i'm not even done finishing the other parts to him. i'm not even sure how big to make the gun.
artist? someone said that pixel art wasn't "art." = P and this is why i don't like "right ways" or "wrong ways," b/c there isn't such a thing in art if you display what you want to display. i must say my dull colors were a really bad choice, even though i still wish they could be moredull, at least on the leather, but that would mean more colors..
oh, and for the record, i want more shades of things because later, when the gun fires, i want to have a light effect on his whole body, and have it rather dynamic. too little shades and he'll just be a flat light color. = ) I just wanted that out there.

Alright. Perhaps I was foolish to write that rant when the focus of the thread should
be the sprites, not an argument. I think you have described the situation perfectly in the part I quoted, but the reason we want you to do it the "best" way is because we
want to see you grow as an artist. If it means taking the fun out of spriting, it wouldn't be very good, but if you're okay with our advice, then I would encourage you to follow it.
