for now I'll comment on the customs because their much easier to pin point and explain the issues,
there is no contrast and too high saturation, the shape is also just a blatant blob...

It's jello...What other shape should it be lol?

Also he is right about the contrast. It's very dull. Should have more shine. It looks like a beanie hat to me.

Also the term custom doesn't actually mean the sprite was made from scratch. It's just an accepted term. Even I use to believe that as well. An edit can be considered custom.

Also the X edit I wont comment on it's need serious work.

That little boss guy (I'm not too big on classic Megaman, sorry.) his right hand (the fist) doesn't look finished and this thumb on the left hand looks bent (broken). Each pixel matters in a sprite. One pixel can change a whole lot on a sprite. His mohawk looks shaped funny and his right leg could use some work.

He looks really flat by the way but I guess that's the taboo of 8-bit.
