Wow, I gotta say although the picture itself isnt great what Normal did with it is way better. Hes right about the colors on yours, they are all mismatched and make my eyes beed. |

the first looks like some fun was had with MS Paint and the Fill-bucket tool....Cymoro's showed what can be done by playing with just a little of PS's power...if you'd maybe fiddled around with more of the features, the first may not have been as....different, as Cymoros, perhaps  |

Besides the white space, look at what I did. I stayed with the theme of a samurai. I also used the burn tool on the armor to add a sort of shade to it.
Details:
-Two tone blade.
-Ridges of head hair are highlighted.
-Middle sash has a shade to it.
-Right arm's sleeve has a shade.
-Armor has shading.
Edit:
I'm having a field day CGing this. |

now that i do really investigate my work, u r entirely right.
the blade and armor actually have lens flares, btw. but yeah it is awful i am dissapointed in myself maybe i should stick to making my own custom sprites from scratch |

Alright, let me go into detail.
The colors make it look like a colorblind samurai. It looks like you spent all of 2 minutes picking basic colors and filling in holes, picking a gradient, coloring the blades, and you erased things.
Put effort into your work. Don't slap a smiley face onto something and call it post-modernimpractice-art. Spend more time on it. |

It's a really crappy attempt. actually, its probably my first edit of a drawing, I'm much more use to pixel art. |

I had something else to say. Actually, I had a few things. Here's the closest thing to constructive criticism.
You're fucking colorblind. Please, give me a while to make a decent colorization. |
