First, can you please show the sprite at an 100% view. If this is 100%, then this is waay too big.

Okay, much better, the problem with this sprite is the out of color lines. If you darkened the lines a bit it would help.

Your problem is that your using the same bad colors. Pick 3-4 colors for each significant color and make shades appropriately (light to dark). You generally use colors 1-3 for the closer shapes and colors 2-4 for farther shapes. You should have observed other sprites first to get an idea on how details and colors are dealt with.

That sounds really useful to know. So things that would be closer generally have fewer shades?

I'm not very good at shading myself, so I wouldn't mind having tips either.

Aye, late to notice that this was replied to..

Anyway, would using the 3-4 colors bit fit for 15 colors? I do kinda plan on putting that in BN6. <_<

Sort of. Don't believe me? Youtube "Kamen Rider Faiz". You'll see similarity. Also, I should probably end this topic... Somehow.

First of all don't revive old topics, anyway a shading tip is to look a other sprites to see their shading. Also it looks like you still need to learn how to recolor.
