I was trying to make it look like that weird shin yrock found in olcanoes (Its a lava cave worm) and it didn't work too well.

Nice, but you seem to use a technique called... PILLOW SHADING!!! *Dun dun duuuuun!!!*

Basically, it's where you assume that a light source is inbetween the player and the sprite, thus making it have a sort of... Tubular look to it. Among skilled spriters, it's not very pretty looking.

Other than that, You should... "Speckle" your monsters; put down random pixels of shades to give your monster a more "rough 'round the edges" look to it.

Oh, I know how to do that. Its not exactly difficult. But these are made to match MY charsets. So I shadeed em like I shade charsets.

Yeah, it was mainly the Jumbo worm that worried me with the Pillow Shading.

Honestly, I think the others could probably maybe work without new shading, but hey, This new style looks just fine. I'd say use it!

I like. Yeah, the new jumbo worm is far better, the other's shading made it look like the grey skin was seperate from the belly skin- not attatched.

Yeah, I saw that. Instead of having the dark start on both edges if I had shaded in about 4-5 colors, the started the other siude simultaneously as I did with the belly, It may look better.
