My first sprite attempt

[Orclaeder]

I used a tutorial to make this .. its very small but its my first... its not just a copy of one and recolored i made it by myself point by point 


Yes i know the line and the dots on the right shouldnt be there but well .. i couldnt be ..... to delete them .. because i will probly need them some other time
Im off to bed now.. gdnight ppl cya soon 

Oh btw please tell me how to inprove it and what i did wrong(the head will be moving when im realy done but im just busy now with school and stuff)  (i will make bigger ones some day  )

That was like ripping off Tsugomo's tutorial.

This once is from tsugumo 
You  changed the shirt color...

[Feron]

You  changed the shirt color...

thats a bit harsh, he did change the pants color too...

[Darien]

Didn't he say he used a tutorial to make this? 

OK, now that you made this, there is not much you can gain from our critque on it, since it is pretty much a copy of Tsugumo's.  Now try making something original and post it here, you'll benefit more from a critique on that.

[Darien]

What is your point, dragon?

I think it's clear Orclaeder is not trying to pull one over us, he just doesn't know where to start.  Like I said earlier, Orclaeder, you won't benefit much from copying things pixel by pixel, it's better to try your own original things.

[Skull]

He said he used the tutorial, and so now what I think you should do, Orclaeder, is edit your current sprite, perhaps a new hair style etc, and make it your own.

[Orclaeder]

I told you i didnt rip it, i used his tutorial, i didnt copy a thing.
I looked how he did it and i painted it and used different colors, this was my first time and this is how i learned a bit basics, also i wanted to change the hair but i came up with rubbish..seriously i couldnt make it better hair..dont say i ripped it .. i realy put some effort in it.. i seriously didnt copy anything 
Darien is right, i wouldnt lie to you because you all know that tutorial .. but i dont know where toedit the hair at least..
Eck told me to make small edits .. thats what i tryed with the hair.. but i realy couldnt do it  Help with hair  ?

Oh btw ZxC.. my one has 3 frames .. you should have scrolled down more.. still ididnt copy 

[Skull]

I ackowledged your first post saying you followed the tutorial, and I believe now what you should try to do, rather than dwell on your inexperience, is to give the edits another go.
If still unsuccessful, ask to help, by posting them here.

But, yeah, saying ripping was a little out of order.

[Sharm]

We're not trying to be mean to you or anything, but you clearly don't understand the meaning of copying.  If you draw something from scratch, but you make it look the same as the thing you're basing your drawing on, it's still copying.  Back before printing copying used to be done entirely this way.

[Orclaeder]

I tried new hair again.. dunno what its supposed to be but its hair  Animation is wrong .. dunno what to fix 


Better ?

[Orclaeder]

Double post issue 

Anyway.. :

K newest one .. my own hair ... good now  ?



Ok .. so i know how to make these things now .. should i start making them bigger .. and how should i start making them bigger.. help is always welcome

[Sharm]

Just start drawing.  What sort of thing are you drawing it for?  What's the character like?  What's the perspective of the background?  Keep that in mind while you draw.  Knowing those things will help you decide things like style, size, and what sort of animations you need.  Once you've got a good standing sprite, use one of the tutorials to help you make the walk.

i also said that it was fine for a beginer, and that you try something of your own on a bigger scale.
