Description
With talks about cartoons on the Yugioh Tournament Stream, I decided to sprite two old characters I grew up watching (Thank you Late Night Black and White), Popeye and Betty Boop.Popeye's model was his official sprite. I also had a picture of him to do a better job at shaping him up. His body I think turned out great but his arms I am questioning since his is so unique.
Betty Boop was also difficult as her body type was something I am not used to spriting. I think it turned out alright but it could be better.
Everything is 100% custom.

Thanks. Can I use Betty Boop sprites from her DS game? I'm making crossover of classic cartoon characters with sprites from different games.

You could, but I made these from scratch.

I rather like Popeye. His left arm shouldn't be just the right one flipped around however- that messes up the shading AND perspective. Re-shade it and make it a little smaller and it should look better. o: it's really good though.

Sweet looking Popeye! You did an awesome with it! My only issue with it is the shading on his left (our right) arm, but I got this feeling you already know that. As for Betty, she is fairly okay, although not as good as the Popeye's sprite. The shading seems a little off with her and I don't know about her shape too well to say anything, especially considering that the character has an odd shape to began with.
Overall, awesome job! Keep up the good work!

Thanks. I do know about the Popeye sprite, but my original plan didn't look good. As for Betty's shading, is it the hair or overall?

Popeye: Don't worry, you can get it eventually. That kind of problem is something every spriters usually have at one point or another.
Betty: Almost overall. There are a few parts that has some nice shading, but overall, the black shading need a bit more contract with each other. The hair is okay, but it could be possible to improved it by playing around (and maybe a bit of pillow-shading on one side of her hair, but I can't be absolutely for sure). The legs and arms seems somewhat pillow-shading, especially comparing it to the Popeye next to it.
Back to Popeye: There is something I have notice when I was close-examining the two sprites for better C&Cs. The skin pixel one spot to the left of his left eye (our right), I think applying a dark-color shading (maybe the second of the darkest colors) for that single pixel would actually gave his mighty chin a bit more shape. Oh, and the hat and shoes seems to have a bit of a pillow-shading to it as well, but I think that is about it.

Apparently. If they're good or not is up to the critics.
