Here's my first attempt at making my own sprite from scratch. Obviously, I've only done the head so far. Still needs some work... and any advice for the hair (shading especially) would be greatly appreciated! I am having some trouble with it. Thanks!

90% of teens today would die if Myspace had a system failure and was completely destroyed. If you are one of the 10% that would be laughing, copy and paste this to your signature

Is that an okay color for hair? It's kinda weird to contrast.

Update on Marvin's head. Added contrast to hair/face and changed colors around a bit.

It's mainly because this has been here for several days and I've gotten hardly any advice for my sprite. But I didn't mean to do that on purpose sorry.

Complete update on Marvin...

user posted image

Besides the hair color, he looks a little like the way I used too haha.
Man... I was ugly! *clears thoughts*

I'm still working on the contrast of the hair... I've always had that problem while working on him. I tried a somewhat weird/different shading style with the hair... no clue where I got the idea.

I'm going to be gone from the 27th to late July 4th. Please leave some comments; I need as much advice as possible. Thanks!

Okay... it's been FOREVER since I've updated this, but I think it's about time I finally did so. Still having some problems with it... but I'm doing better than I was before.

Known problems-

1) Head is big- This I thought about for awhile but after looking at several other sprites on MFGG, I realized that many of their heads were large as well.

2) Shading on shirt- Yeah... kinda weird. I could never really get it to work well but this was my best attempt.

3) Right hand- I never could get it to look right so I just made it a robotic one for the time being.

4) Pant shading- Same as shirt shading... blah

I really need some advice on this one... I'm stuck at the moment. Thanks to all who comment!
