Is that an edit? I haven't compared them, but it looks very similar to Edgeworth's sprite.

The hair needs more detail.

yeah i know the hair need edit but i don't know to make it look better or how to shade (i'm bad at making shades), i only edited the hair, his is face from a different color and is 1 pixel short (Wright height is 176 cm and Edgeworth height is 178 cm) but i want to make different animations from the game and make the moves he use in U MvsC3, btw i will do Maya later

they're terrible edits of miles edgeworth. terrible, in a way its just a recolor + some minor details added.

you want to improve these? start by not making sprite edits and working on your own work.

I've never even played the Ace Attorney games but one of the more striking differences between Phoenix and Edgeworth that's kind of immediately apparent to me is how different their builds are, not just in body type but design as well. Edgeworth is very angular, his coat trimmed to his waist, while Phoenix is really boxy. You'd need to do a lot more than just change his hair, face and neck decor if you want to reflect those differences.

What I mean is that you should at least add one more shade, since the sprite style seems to have 3 shades at the least.

Something similar to, but not exactly like this;


I did a quick edit and pallette, but I don't recommend copying my shading, since I really don't know the shading for the style. lol

Point is, just add another shade or two on the hair, and you're on your way. Good luck with Maya.

yeah, you're right i just checked that because the time i edited the edgeworth sprite i don't see that i will later change all the wrights bodies
