@Fantasist, ok, I'll try darkening the blood a bit. I borrowed my blood pallet from another sprite, and didn't think about making it darker. and lol, I'm glad you didn't power me down.
@Caro, Yah, everyone seems to think it doesn't look much like blood. I need to darken it up a bit, like everyone seems to be suggesting. And yes, he's going to float, and the blood will be animated. It's going to look cool, when I'm finished.
@Deathlock, the sword had a figure, it was just more bloody, XD But thanks, glad you like it.
@Satoh, true. I think I need to just use the outline color a tad more. Most of the blood is shaded with the highlight. Combining shading methods is difficult, XD I'll try the saturation method. I have PS, but I prefer changing contrast manually, since it makes me understand how pixels work.
