LuigiM9's Sprite Showcase

[Ridge Troopa]

Nes, your edit is really sweet, but it's unfortunately not really Partners in Time style. Things can't be shaded and detailed quite as... well as you've done it. The blue on the eyes, mostly above, is also kind of jarring as others have said.

Back to LuigiM9's sprite:



Boo's upper jaw is very defined from the side. You should set the rest of the mouth back a few pixels on yours to match that, right now your shape is too flat.
Also, if you aren't already, it would be helpful to keep the PiT Boo sprites next to yours as reference. That way you can really see the way things should look in this style.

My edit on the right. I already showed it to you, and you've used parts from it in your new one by now, but I may as well point out a few things that I feel still need work.
The gold part of the crown could use some shading/aa as it reaches the sides, and it would look nicer with a highlight somewhere.
The jewel itself seems under-detailed, I'd suggest finding another way to do the highlight and shade the faces so it looks at least somewhat shiny.
And the last tiny thing, he needs some aa on his underarms.

Really sorry for so much stuff in one post. My fault for not coming in here earlier.
