Description

I saw this [link] and cried a little.

I've been seeing horrible sonic/megaman recolor sprite sheets all over the newest deviations and even if you find this insulting it isn't spriting.
This is taking someone else's work and that's it.

Create your own work, if it has to be a sonic recolor try making it from scratch.

This is the equivalent of doll bases, you take something that's already been made make a minor edit and then call it your own.

This may be harsh but I am a believer in tough love and in this case I believe it is needed.
I want you to improve, I want you to be able to create art and this isn't the road to get there. Using others' work as a reference can be helpful and I encourage that but simply drawing or pasting on some extra accessories that you took from something else and then changing the palate is not cool and I would consider it to be disrespectful.

Also, I do not condone any attacks on the person who posted the image I cited.
