    This is a good start to a sprite. Dithering aside, the shading could be improved a little. That outstretched arm shows three levels of shading, which is a good start, but it's positioning isn't how light would fall onto an arm, which is more or less a cylindrical object. The lightest level only extends halfway up the arm even though the entire arm would have the same level of shading, or highlighting as it is in this case. The kind of concentric shading it has is more appropriate to a spherical or rounded object.

    Finally, a post! :P

    Thanks for the tip. :) I'll edit the sprite when I get time. :D Also, the front sprite was made agea go, so that's why it is of a low quality. :P

  • I can't really offer a good explanation on how to change it, but I think the shading needs some work. Otherwise, they're all pretty good! Oh, and your last two sprites (the moneybag ones) are the same.

  • You're sprites are good, but I think you need you need to work on shading. Otherwise, I can't really notice anything bad about it. Keep it up!

    I think that's called just a bow. Anyway, it's nice and simple, but perhaps you'd get the string to look better if you made it at a 45 degree angle so it wouldn't have that slight jaggedy look.

    I meant to say shortbow. xD *facepalm*

    Thanks for the advice. I think it looks much better! :D
