It looks Really good!

What's not M&L styled?

Basically, M&L only uses two shades for each color.

OK lets se if i can fix that.


EDIT: Now it's not so good.

The darker shade should be alot darker then that.

Much like Yoshiguy said, the light and dark shade need to be far more diffrent.

Sage said?

And yeah great sprite but gotta make it look more MLSSSish

Don't ask why, but I thought that was Sage. XD

the famous Shadz and badasbill allready made one, but we should really advertise other people's sprites.
I really like this one, but don't listen what others tell you
I like it, and remember M&L style => 2-3 shades RARELY 4
(read Starpower's tutorial for help)

It's perfect IMO, but it needs to be cartoonier and brighter.

No, it can have up to 4 shades...

(oh, frario already said... oh well)

it's nofing wrong then.
good

It CAN, but rarely does. The way NO Body did it on Smithy doesn't really make it look M&L that way. M&L is a cellshaded kind of style, not basic shading. If they really go up to four shades, it's because they really can't shade some parts without it looking just incorrect with two or three shades. NO Body used all four shades right next to each other on the chest, which he didn't need to do. Also, the two shades he did use on parts are really close to each other still. The four shades NO Body uses, if they were to be correct in your circumstances, would have to be far off from each other. They couldn't just go darker in very light ammounts.

There were actually about 6 or 7 shades in there. I redid it a bit so it is a *little* more M&Lish.

needs to be more like a doll, and softer.
don't use the grey for the beard.

Doesn't look like M&L style to me.
