@Koopaul, because that would be obnoxious as fuck and as I said before, just because it's 'useless' in a game or something, it doesn't mean it's meaningless. Or else we wouldn't have any art ever. Why bothering painting Mona Lisa or sculpting David? They don't serve for anything.
The point of making big pixelart, again, is not for use. Its purpose is different than what you want. Its purpose is to represent what the person wants to do, or what he's feeling, or to try out new techniques.
This is my more artistic-oriented point of view and I get what you're saying, but you need to stop thinking it's a waste because that idea not only is wrong, but also demotivating.
not to say I'd rather work on something entirely new than making customs of already existing characters.
