i'm back(kirby custom sprites

[Bombshell93]

why does it looks and feels like you're just tracing them?

maybe because of the seeming overuse of a line tool, the quality of the animation frames, and the general style looking hand drawn.
I'll say its a little suspect, but I'm not one to jump to conclusions.

tips, I'd say curve the hell out of those surfaces, clean the shading up so its not following the outline but following the form, it looks like kirby is just a fridge magnet in some frames, use a consistent light source, and antialias and selout wisely on those black lines
