There's no way it's a coincidence that the pixels are lined up. There are things that are pixel for pixel the same on your geno sprite.

i did not edit your geno
here is where i started working on my geno

tidus has different hair, weapons
and he use shorts
my character use pants

I'm not saying you stole any animations because i didn't make any. The base is the issue in particular. I'd like you to man up and be honest here, because really it's irrefutable. There are even shades in the same place. Your idle is the same concept as the old geno idle i made as well (the one that you stole before), with the same error in animation here. Please be real dude, i'm not mad i just want you to be honest.

im being real I DID NOT COPY YOURS
i made my geno fully custom and spended a lot of time on him
geno is one of the hardest characters to sprite in my opinion

and that wont even be the final idle .-.
ill change it if it bothers you so much

your geno doesnt even look like mine o.O

here i made a comparation of our genos
each one has different chains
and the only simmilar things that i found are in the purple boxes


i really made my geno fully custom
and it really hurts that you dr geno are saying that i copied yours when i didnt
i even showed the sheet where i work on geno
and in deviant art i found a geno that do looks like an edit of yours (well only the shoes)

You edited from that Geno and the newer one.

Look dude i'm done arguing with you about it. If you feel like it's okay to edit something and not ask someone about it, even to go so far as lying, then it's cool whatever. Look closer, the chains are pixel for pixel the same, just recolored. Your smoke and mirrors don't really prove anything. Can't even admit that? Give me a break.

It's painfully clear that it's an edit of the first time you edited my Geno sprite, or that you took some influence from it or something. I'm not bothered that you used it, i'm bothered that you aren't owning up to it. Again if you don't want to admit it, fine. Steal any of my sprites again though and it'll be a larger issue.

as i said before
i did not edit your geno
i made mine fully custom
if your geno and my geno looks kind of like the same it might be because THEY ARE THE SAME CHARACTER
i dont find nessesary to edit any of your genos
and if it bothers you so much that my idle looks like yours ill change it!!
and it really is frustrating that you keep saying that i edited your geno when i didnt
if there are some pixels that look the same it aint my fault, i wont make a sprite looking to another sprite so they dont have things that do might look the same

i admire you as a spriter dr geno and im telling you the truth when i say: I DID NOT EDIT YOUR SPRITE

That Geno sprite is dull as hell. Did you even bother to use the original Geno for reference?



Why are your colors so dark and muddy? The original Geno palette was bright and full of color.
That doesn't look like spikes on the side of his cape but it literally looks like it's torn off. The yellow collar part looks completely muddy/anti-aliased and the orange curls don't pop/stand out as much.

So rather than complaining on whether or not that sprite was stolen/custom, i suggest you fix/modify parts of your Geno sprite so its more lively to the original counterpart instead of a dark, dull, and obviously edited Geno sprite.

One more thing, btw: It doesn't really support your defense between the whole stolen/custom Geno sprite when the giant spritesheet you claimed as evidence you used contains both Gregarlink's Skull Kid sprite (next to your new Skull Kid with the exact same color palette as Gregarlink's) and Crimson Angel's Geno sprite (Which you obviously said you edited from)... And judging from the both of them, it could be assumed that you used Dr. Geno's sprite as a reference or used as a part/whole of your sprite aswell. I'm not claiming you a thief but i'm telling you that your supporting evidence isn't doing you justice at the moment. Just focus on the Geno critique i mentioned above

i did not edit it

and thats my brawlificated version of him
im planning to change the color to a brighter one, thanks for the critic

You plan to animate the Skull Kid btw?

yes but is the palette good enough??

personally, I like it.

But haha, I like most of your recent work in general. Keep it up, I'm really interested in seeing Skull Kid brought to life.

i edited a little bit my skull kid and this is how it ended up
which one do you think that looks better?

and which geno palette looks better?

really like your work.

Geno's middle palette I like.

michael M ,my skulll kid doesnt have the same palette as gregar links one .-.
the palette that i used to make my skull kid was this

and the only reason why gregar links skull kid was on my work sheet is because iwas playing with palettes and i wanted to see how my skull kid sprite looked like with gregar palette -.-
and i only edited 3 moves from chrimson angel geno, (walk,run,runattack that is the same as the uptilt) the rest of my sheet is custom made (and the moves that i edited from crimson angel one will be replased with custom ones)

anyway
here is my progress with skull kid idle

this idle is based on majoras mask one
