Templates are fine, as long is you made it yourself.
I think templates are fine as long as you don't use it as a template in the sense that you just recolour it over and over and over and over again (or just change some stuff, like the shirt design)... You need to like add muscles, and such, as well as extra armour etc to different types of units and it's your own template.
Like I did or?
No you basically just used a template, and it wasn't even your own. I mean as long as it's your own as well*
Ok thn the reason i used a temlate is because most of my non template work sucks royal ass
Using someone Else's template to start out is fine, I started spriting with edits of game sprites.
Just remember, at some point you have to start making you own things.
Ok then

I've made my own stuff. They just suck
GTA, I started out with templates, Then i realized that my own stuff was good. Don't compare your work to our standards, compare it with your own.
Thaks Mcpawz :buddy:
Who wants to see how bad I was when I started out? :v:
Spriting, that is.
Me! Me!
Ok, if you want to see my horrible sprites from the past, rate agree, and I'll make it my 3000'th post.
I barley remember any of your shit, so, rated agree.

I started spriting on a Bionicle forum, so my first sprites were of that.

Then I started branching out into other things, like this Megaman edit.

For a while I settled in a Sonic the Hedgehog forum, where I did lots and lots of crappy edits of sonic.

By now I was getting better as a spriter, but I was still doing edits.

Finally, I got back into doing fully custom things, still in a Sonic theme.

We're nearing the present now, but it was still a few years ago.

There you have it, my epic spriting journey.
Oh wow, that's ALOT of edits. :v:
I know, I know. :v:
But I think it paid off.
I think all those sonic edits made all your sprites spiky.
For instance, on the shades, their is some dark spikes on them, and on the cultists, the horns are very similar, and the flames are spiky, and the robes are spiky etc.
Spiky.
Which flame is better?
