Well, right now I'm kinda doing some OT sprites, not recolors, but not purely original, either. I just need to find somewhere to put them on a site so I can show them to you...

Question about where to find a server to post on is answered, now to the posting of sprites please. I'd hate to lock a new comers thread for making something that doesn't hold any content other then looking for a place to post and what they are planning to post.

From an Omega X sprite, comes my first non-recolor!

It's okay for a sprite that's from scratch. Probably better than something I could do, but, could you uh, change the color of the background. It's very hard to see some of the effects you're trying to give to them. And also, give a little more detail to the uh... energy things that's going on around Goku, and his Fire ball needs more detail.

It's not scratch, I just completely revamped Omega X.

It needs a great deal more shading to be done to it as well as a new background color to help make the sprite stand out more. When dealing with sprites that have bright colors it is better to have a back ground that is dark, so that the viewer can see all the details of the sprite work. You also want to work more on the clothing, since it still has the armored look of X from the Zero series.

Don't save it as JPG. If you have to, use BMP. It may take up space, but it won't be blurry.

Or, if you have a more recent version of paint, use the PNG format. Bitmap quality at drastically smaller cost to your hard drive space. Anyway, as Core said, shading is really lacking here. Also, the shapes look very unnatural for the arms and legs, probably because you used reploid limbs for a human form. Detail work...lots of it, would be nice to. Brush up the face, fix the standing pose where the shirt, rather than the pants cover the crotch, things like that.
