And this is going to be my first attempt at somewhat custom battle sprite. Some kind of dragon warrior. In case you can't tell, I love pointlessly giant weapons.

I think that your better at this then you think you are. All of the splices are pretty nice.
For your dragon warrior, try making the Sword more defined and try to make the shield slightly less generic. Try using Eliwood with Durandural (spelled wrong) and a hero's shield as references.
It holds promise though.
SuperLuigi
Your spilces are all very clean, and the colour choices are pretty good. Over all they're all quite nice.
Locust
I know what you mean about the shield, but I haven't gotten around to doing anything with it yet. And the shield is a Hero's shield, blown up about 150% or so, then defined. The sword is supposed to look jagged and abused.
☠Bonestorm99☠
The one that looks like April Leila needs the pixels of border color
taken off of her shirt.
Locust
I know, I take a while to finally do these. Bear with me.

Anywho, this here is a splice of three mugs instead of the usual two! ... yeah. I don't really do that too much.

Nice, it is very well put together. Can't see much wrong. I'm guessing you used Heath for the face.
Rexstatic
Heath, Denning and Karel. The hair on the right of his head doesn't
really flow with the rest (HPV).

How do you mean? And what does "HPV" mean?
Rexstatic
By HPV, I meant his point of view.
Locust
Ah, I get ya. I'll fix that up.

EDIT: Rather, I will. Just tell me exactly what looks off, because I don't see anything.
Rexstatic
The hair on his left looks thicker than that on his face, and the hair
on his face covering his eye looks like it kinda curves to the right a
bit but it suddenly stops to our left with a straight line.

Any better? Or am I still missing it?
Rexstatic
Better before IMO. Maybe if you added a strand of hair in the spot I
mentioned?
Locust
Jeez, I'm really not getting this. This is why I don't do custom.
