| Sorry for the late thoughts on this but all the other judges are mia and I've been busy with college, Genetics and organic chemistry own my time for now haha but here are my thoughts on the sprites.
A little explanation is as follows, if something is illegible to you let me know and I'll translate it as fast as I can. Also Golf rules apply to those numbers I wrote.
Ace's sprite......Feet are far too small, the body is too wide for it's height, the hands aren't really made that well, the metal shading does not look metallic, he's missing a chin, the cape isn't bad it's alright, the shading can be improved to match the outline on it however. The stick for his leg looks like a twig that will snap if he puts too much weight on it ( didn't mark you down for it because I have no idea if that's intentional)
Retro. Temari isn't bad but Kankuro is boss, since you put in 2 sprites I had to add your total together.. Having submitted only kankuro you would have either been in first or tied with snoop and DP. For Temari her face looks to be one pixel too long. Also you've made her chest plate pillowed...So I dunno if it's supposed to be metallic or cleavage but I know it's not supposed to be pillow :3 Kankuro nearly flawless imo, but I think you made the other-side of his head flap too long. In any case you seem to be quite good at the style from when I last saw you try at it congrats.
Snoop great LSW sprite as always I was just concerned with the face, it seems like you tried to put too much detail into it and the face ended up looking kind of odd, the goatee curls in while the other stays out, there's a mouth........I think it could be the end of his nose...I'm not sure what's going on there is my crit there and then the scarf is somehow getting a ton of light somehow. But honestly this is a great sprite good job on it.
I believe this is Lives or Gokus Im not sure since there was no name and I cannot recall atm haha but either way. The sprite was supposed to be custom. This obviously is not......He has one hell of a long finger, tiny feet for that pose, the chest is far too big for those legs, the legs need waaay better shading as I cannot even tell if the closest one is bending or just fully extended, his arms should be a bit longer. A cool idea but could have been executed better.
This is a cool looking panda I have no idea if it's from anything or what but it seems pretty sweet! The ears seem unnatural however, and I feel as though this sprite would have definitely benefited from a dithering technique on his belly, also I cannot see any attempt to show that this panda has fur? It looks like that's just his skin....Is this intentional?
In anycase I saw tie between snoop and Death. Post comments on these sprites or my critiques if you want to, if no one replies you can just lock it, as it was just made to get the info out of the contest.

Fair enough lol. I was trying to play around and make my own style, similar to JUS but bigger. Overall, I gotta say you're right about just about all of this. I have no idea how to shade metallic parts, I'm terrible at hands, and cape shading has always given me trouble XD
*sigh* lost to snoop yet again. One of these days...

Ok. Good point.

So you didn't make it from scratch, therefore it's not custom.
Unless you made the sprite, all of it, then it's an edit.

| You could've organised everything a lot better here. I can't read the red writing, I don't know which submission belongs to who, and you've made such a long paragraph that is able to put off just about anybody from reading it.

Ye. Split each individual piece of criticism into paragraphs. Much easier to read.
