no matter.. ive just told him ideas

So... You want me to teach you how to sprite like that?
Uhm... I don't think I can ._.
The only suggestion I can give is; experiment and learn.
Ask yourself what looks good and what doesn't and do something about it if it doesn't.
What aren't you happy about?
Are the colours too bright? Does it have an odd shape?
Change it!
The best spriters are the most experienced spriters, I say.

I can give you tips though;
e.g. the sprites of LF2 are really simple. Don't make stuff too complicated or it will look weird in-game.

Or give KaywonnJuto's tip a try:
Copy a character, draw the outline and draw a completely new character over it.

We all have our own techniques, and it's up to you to find one that fits you the most!

Here is something simple I always do...
Plz, Apocalypse don't say anything bout this
Thanks Jossua for telling him...
I've already stressed this as much as I could for new people...

Copy and Paste
Outline
then Draw over

Easy as that
