The one that really bothers me is the Spiny.

Now... any comments on the sprites I did?

I did think the egg was odd as well..



and Magiluigi, I do like your sprites, but as the others said, i think the Cheep Cheep's eyes are oversized a bit.
It's just that: It looks too much like a Buzzzy Beetle. Spinys don't have claws, and its face is exactly the same as the Buzzy Beetle's... and maybe its spikes could be better (but if you [DragonFire] want to let them that way, it's fine, Spiny spikes are bitches to draw anyway, just like Spiny eggs... #w{:s}).

Yay, Ninji attacks again....

Anyway, there's nothing more I can do about the Cheep-Cheep's eyes... if I let them smaller, they'll be too much small.
I like big bulging eyes for the Cheep-Cheep - just not to much, and you perfectly got that. The Blurp looks awesome too.

And here is the latest one I made for the Buzzy Beetle I posted a while ago. I think it looks great, especially for me, but I just can never get feet right - for any kind of sprite. If someone can do feet for me, I'd be a really happy panda.

And everybody likes happy pandas.

They do in Paper Mario, actually.

Yep, I know that. But this is a platformer Mario game, and the look they go for the platformers is [...]
Something like that is too trivial to actively pursue. Not everything has or needs to be 100% faithful.

I think this will stand out a bit because of how a lot of sprites aren't profiled, and are facing the front a bit.
The Spiny was always in profile in SMW, though, even among large numbers of 3/4 view enemies. Indeed, I always thought the forward-facing nature of the version currently in the ROM as one of the reasons it looked so strange and hunchbacked. I personally find the version seen above quite a considerable improvement over that, at least.

(original PM sprite).

(In Paper Mario: Sticker Star)

Just kidding, I just find Spinys (I think it is actually spelled "Spinies"...) with claws weird :P

Yep, I was thinking about that... almost everything in SMW is partially facing the camera, while the Spinies were always been in profile...
Oh, RN! What do you think about the Cheep-Cheep now? #w{:>}

I'd say it looks pretty good now. The more that I look at it, the more I'd also say my issue with the fin I mentioned earlier has less to do with its positioning and more to do with the fact that it just looks a teensy bit too large in comparison to the rest of the body, though it doesn't stick out quite as much in this version as it appeared to in the previous.

Sind seems to be on one of his vanishing sprees again (he periodically leaves for a month, come back for a month, etc). If we don't hear from him soon, I'll have to pass on the coin code to someone who can touch up the remaining bugs.

I should stop doing that -_-l|l

Anyways, I'm currently on vacation, and have limited time on the computer(and incredibly shitty internet).
I should have a good amount of time tomorrow though.
And honestly, if I can't finish this by then I don't think I can at all(plus, I've wasted more than enough time already)

Speaking of which, if anyone wants to take a look at the coins' code, I can send them the package. It isn't commented very well, but I could probably whip together a quick explanation of how the coins work, and what my current problem is =/

I'd better do nothing about it... because I'll end up screwing it up and such...

Um, I don't know why didn't you put the Dolphins on that list, GSG, because they are just (bad) reshades of the original sprites, but I redrew them anyway:

Those beach balls in Beach Ball Brawl really need some work too, but I didn't redraw them... yet .
Anyway, I tried to draw a Spiny, too, look:

I hate its feet, ugh.

EDIT: I know about the shading on the Dolphin's dorsal fin, don't tell me about it, I already fixed it.

Honestly not a fan of those Spinies, I like DragonFire's more.

But the Dolphins are awesome.
The Spiny's face, if you can even call it that, isn't doing anything for me either. The Dolphin looks good, though.
I'm with DeePay on this one, the dolphin looks great, but the spiny needs work. Maybe base the face off of the blue buzzy?
Thanks for the comments, guys! Heh, I knew you wouldn't like that spiny, even I wasn't fond of it!

Well, I also redrew the Desert Toads, I thought about making them look like the Desert Toads from Paper Mario, but I thought it would be really unfitting, so I gave them an archeologist look:

8>
That looks fabulous! I have to agree with teh feet though - especially the one where it's together - it looks weird...

...and now that my teenage mind has gotten through me, it kinds look like a butt cleavage :s
Looks like puffy pants to me, nothing else.
