I'd prefer if you Credit me if you want to use it, but if you don't that's okay too.

I'd envision this being used as some kind of evil grim reaper-esque monster? I'm not sure how well it'll mix with the RTP as it using a low variance of colors however. I plan on using it as a show picture command in my game to emphasize a scene  but I felt like I should see if anyone wants to use it.

There are two images. One is the original, and one is a lightened version because it may be too dark for some.

It's so dark that when I first entered the thread I thought it was all black but then I leaned forward and then I was like "oh".


Lighten it up a bit?

 

[Erichermit]

Hm, it doesn't look dark to me, but if I slouch it becomes very dark, so I suppose it my viewing angle which made it seem brighter than it really is. I'll bright it up a little.

Still looks almost entirely black to me, but maybe it's my own monitor that's a bit dark.

Lol, didn't help much.


It's a pretty awesome battler, it's just CRAZY dark

 

[Erichermit]

Man, something must be wrong with my brightness settings on my computer or something. It's supposed to be really dark but the point is also that you can see it all just fine.

I think the problem may have been that I made everything lighter, including the outline. If I kept the outline really dark, it may be better.

Is this better?

If you want it to mesh better with the RTP, I'd suggest adding more shades to it, just to give it a bit more depth.

I agree needs more shading, but other then that, it's not as dark as the earlier ones were so it's easier for use to tell what is what :wink: keep up the work.

It won't mix with the rtp because they are more "real painted", whereas this is ms paint pixly.
I would suggest trying to make this more like pixel art style instead of just a bunch of random pencil strokes.

 

[Erichermit]

Hmm, I've tried that a lot and it always comes out awful. This is the only time I've ever been able to make something look decent at least. I suppose I lack a certain coordination of hand and ability to see where shading would go.
