I'm looking to create my own sprites (go figure) and while I'm having a pretty straight forward time animating some assets in the awesomeness that is spriter, I'm kind of failing at creating my own. I can create basic forms in Photoshop and illustrator and import/animate them with no problem, coloring them nicely is another beast altogether. Does anyone have any pointers or resources that helped them with this aspect? I have watched a lot of YouTube but I'm not quite grasping how to translate that into something I can utilize.

Recently finished big full game projects and looking forward to do more. Some examples: I do animations, backgrounds, sometimes music... everything. My work can also be seen on my deviantart http://bwwd.deviantart.com/gallery/ and in this thread: http://brashmonkey.com/forum/index.php?/topic/3084-my-animated-sprites/ If You have any questions You can contact me through this forum or: 2blackbar @ gmail . com
