My recolo sprites - tim77 - 01-24-2013

Hello! As say it the title I am going to post here my sprites recolo.
The first one is a sprite recoloured of meta knight in Kirby Super Star Ultra on DS (see below)

And here is my recolo:

I recoloured it with the colours of Méta Knight on Super Smash Bros Brawl.
I did not finish it but I wanted to know of what you think of it.

So what do we think? Most of us will think, "It's a recolour" - something pretty much any of us can do in a few seconds - especially when the new palette is already given.

In general, taking colours from 3d renders and using them for sprites without changing them (I assume that's what you did) is not the best choice. If you compare the original Meta Knight to your recolour, you'll notice that yours has really little contrast on the metal mask and wing cape. As in, the darker shades should be darker and the brighter ones brighter.
