Difference between a recolor.wad and a good char.wad...

Alright, I'm going to try and point people in the right direction to wad.

Recolors- Barely any change to the sprites, often times a Sonic Sprite. Usually Stripes, new shoe colors, and some other stuff added, that barely changes the sprite.

Character- If you're going to make a good one, look at Senku, Senya, and Nitemare. A lot of people call them recolors; if they're recolors, then they're good ones. You should add like a Jacket or pants to the character. The editing has to be high-strung to be considered an actual character. Pants, Shirts, hell, even some sun glasses. Add a unique tail to the character.

Next, please, if you're getting frustrated with wadding, take a bit a of a Haitus, so you can recuperate. Work on multiple projects. I'm working on two characters, and a level pack. Don't get bored with it. I got bored with the original Syko.wad because I picked up on my artistics. Later, I realized my shading style was simple. I started True Syko to make a complicated shaded version, and we all know how that went. Now I'm doing Rivet. The other two projects are under wraps so I'm not telling you anything about them.

I get kind of sick of re-colors too. Unless they're good, like senku, and everyone else. I realy shouldn't be talking, because I do re-colors, but I try to actualy put time into it. If you do a re-color, than don't use the exact same shape as Sonic, or something. If you just change them a color, that's pretty much what the color choice is good for in SRB2 anyway. Thanks for pointing that out Sykotic. Annyway, I'm going to show of my crappy re-colors!!! Woooo!!

I'm doing a recolor too, but it's very simple:


Basically it's a single tailed fox with clothes, it's my avatar, still in beta form.

Well that is an acceptable character at least. Is that habbohotel I see for his clothes?

Those look very good. And nothing like Recolors.

Hoeny is the recolor. There's not much of a recolor in rouge.

Hell, THIS IS NOT RECOLORS, THEY ARE SPRITE EDITS!
And i do not think that they are crappy.Actually, they are pretty good, specially Rouge.If you are planning to do a Rouge wad, do it.You have spriting skills.
