Not to be picky, but I don't feel like I'm learning anything.

I don't mean any sort of offense to you two, but you two have learned the basis of spriting; being able to re-color a sprite and changing it to something different. It's a start, yes, but then you need to begin to learn other steps, such as frankenspriting*, for one. Try escaping the basic re-color stage, and try adding other things, up to the point where you feel comfortable custom-spriting, as well.

*Frankenspriting [using more than one sprite and molding it together]

Do you want to Brawl but nobody here knows your friend code? Do you wish to store your friend code somewhere so you won't have to fetch it? Do you want to make brawling easier and stop the random PMs from having to be sent? Then click this link.

Eh, whatever, I'll join up anyway. I'll post some samples later, because I am busy at the moment.

(Frankenspriting? So, that's what it is called...)

Cause I really like it.
It's better than Alpha's and Jcliff cause it's not a recolor.
So I think that means like "OMG! THAT'S AWESOME!!!" but it still seems like you have a couple thoughts to make it better.

Actually, it -is- a recolor. Tails' tails, and 2 of them(Not very original). It is just shadow with Tails' tails. Nothing extremely special, but usually people don't even go up to the bargain to make them(a recolor) just from 1 character. For a new spriter, 6/10. For an experienced one, 3/10.

Lol. That's what it's called? Frankenspriting? That's what my golden sprite used... it was Knuckles, Sonic, Mecha Sonic, and Shadow.

Nayik, i dub thee: N00B! *cuts Nayik's head off with lightsaber*

All i really did was recolor... but i found out that spriting is too much effort for not enough results. Like my Bacon sheet. He was basically a Dark Sonic recolor with some cool effects, and the sheet wasn't even finished. I spent total probably about 10 hours on that.

With practise, the time and effort required will decrease and the results will increase.

Hmm... What if I take off one tail, change the Eyecolor to brown, and replace the chest hair with a chest?

Alrighty, I've got time on my hands now, so I might as well do this.

5 Samples

Posted Image
An old sprite of Epsilon I did a while back.

Posted Image
An old GIF I made of one of my first characters, Vegura.

Posted Image
An attempt at making a transformation of Vegura, also very old.

Posted Image
What I consider my best crack at a PA edit, made to look like Sarux as an echidna.

Posted Image
My latest work made to get an idea of what my character Nolectos would look like.

There is the 5 Samples, there are heck of a lot more I could show, but they are mostly PA Edits and could take a page long.

0.

I'm not saying I don't like them, but...

Oh dammit, I don't like them, especially with the lack of contrast and effort.

I much more prefer to avoid having Shadow's quills right there since it appears that you just added a couple of quills on Shadow's quills. Try to make your own original quills; experiment, and always remember: Get the shading and contrast right.
