All right I went with your way and I
-Got rid of that extra out-line shade (that was a mistake on my behalf)
-Kept the same Palette
-Gave the skulls a simple shading that is pretty much comparable to yours but than again working with just a small thing its hard not to
The top row are the original emotes and the bottom row are the newly shaded counter parts
I probably will end up finishing the whole set of maybe 10
If any of you make a spooky themed forum come to me some day and we can work up a deal!
