An excercise in spriting

[E-Man]

changing saturation values (i.e. lighter ones get less saturations, while darker ones get more saturation).

I just wanted to note that this order of saturation isn't an actual "rule" (I generally follow that shadows are less saturated, other people seem to do the opposite). My understanding is that...it's complicated, and either can work. At least in painting. Idk if I've ever noticed sprites that use more saturation in the shadows but I haven't exactly looked for them

Hm, alright then, Starsock. To be fair, I gave both my highlights and shadows less saturation ever since I was told to dabble with the saturation settings more; however, after reading this post from Vipershark he did on another sprite topic, I personally thought his way made sense since the shades I ended up getting usually looked dirty.

I think I'll give Vipershark's suggestion a try to be honest, but there's nothing wrong with doing it your way, Starsock.
