How is it unorganized...? Are you talking about his first post? That's really old. You should probably just look at these new ones, which are for a hack like he said, and I'm pretty sure they're full custom
The mouths seem a bit harsh. Maybe there's some way you can apply sel-out to make them blend in a bit more? I'm not sure.
The blue shading on Dr. Light is too extreme. When you have that much contrast it sort of looks less like shading, i.e. reaction to light and lack thereof, and more like painted stripes. I'm assuming part of the reason might be so that his eyes are readable, but a mix of black with a lighter color in certain ways can still get you good eyes. They might mess up the style or something though. I dunno, play with it I guess...!
Looking at it again, it seems like Dr. Light displays a notion of "if there are outlines, I must shade against them." I think I used to do that same kind of thing. The teeny pixel clusters of shading around the lines in the hair are making things look messy and cluttered rather than adding anything. I'm talking about parts like the two lines in the front and the two lines above his ear. I suggest removing the shading around those lines, and if it looks too barren or not smooth enough, then just add 1 pixel tips of the darker shade on the ends of those lines. It's kinda hard to explain with words so if you don't get what I'm talking about I could just show you.
