| With a sprite in progress of Isako Amasawa in it.  Which I would very much appreciate opinions on.

| I don't know the character, but the sprite is nice.
Her face seems a bit lacking in detail, but again, I don't know if she's supposed to look like that. Her arms look a bit strange; if I were you I'd bring up the position of them a bit.
Nice job on this. |

| Like Ken said, the right leg looks kinda weird when it's bent. I think it's like it caves in a bit early. Like Luke said, face lacking in detail. It looks plain and unnoticeable if you ask me. The arms don't really look crossed, and they look like they're bending into each other. Hair's shape is a bit off. It's like it's hanging off the head. Her second ponytail should show a bit instead of just the scrunchy part. The dress seems to go diagonal on an angle that looks a bit too steep. Might wanna make her a biiit larger, maybe 1 or 2 pixels. |

| Wow, that sprite sucks. I'm sorry I even posted it.  Made this for the weekly challenge at Pixel Joint. It's less meh. :/ 15 colours total, including transparency. |

| You know guys, I really, sincerely appreciate those two useless posts that don't help me improve in any way what so ever.
Thanks. |

| Crater was actually pointing out that there is no definite light source in the sprite.
Your shading lacks continuity. |

And yeah, there's no certain light source. A lot of the things look bolded, like the lily pad. It looks kind of like a 3-Dimension oval to me. I'd also say the browns need a highlight(well, highlight sound a bit too bright, let's go with a lighter hue) |

| @Lukepi: Yes, but I tried and tried and couldn't figure out from his post exactly where the lightsource was inconsistent. I'm guessing that it's on the torso and left leg?
I appreciate that you're taking time to post in my topic and make somewhat of an effort to help me, but if you guys are just going to rant about how much my sprites suck, I can go somewhere else.
@Cav: I don't quite understand how to fix that. Maybe lighten the tones at the top of the lilypad? I'm afraid that I can't add another colour for the basket. There's a 15 colour limit. :/ I could dither out one of the green shades, (there are currently 5) but it creates a texture on the skin. Any suggestions?
