Newee's Sprite Thread: Featuring Sprites!

No. Please. No.



Also, "style" shouldn't be a main focus when learning anything. it's something that's developed over long amounts of time and is something that people come into on their own. When you limit yourself to one realm of thought or even your own way of doing things, you'll end up in a stagnant pool of self-reference and end up being a parody of yourself in many cases.  

When it comes to making sprite sheets for a particular style, one must consider all of the conventions that make it up. Even though the SMW style is kind of a mediocre hodgepodge of things at times, there's a lot more that could be done using some of the conventions it establishes. (although it's not a great reference for walk cycles by any means) 

Also, it should be noted that a sprite sheet is only useful if there's a foreseeable purpose in it:

As a hypothetical fangame/fanimation maker, would I want to make a sprite cartoon with Pokémon that are Sonic-esque anthropomorphic, or am I going to want them to be more on-model with how they look in their franchise? For some, they may want the former, but I imagine for the most part, people would prefer the latter, but it's just a thought exercise at this point.
