Dude!
That is not mixing!
That is cutting and pasting!
They arn't even blended!
When you mix, your ment to blend them together,
Not just stick random bits here and there!
You even cut off the wings of the.... mixes.
Try blending them, re-colouring them.

Really and truly
>.< Try reading the spriting tutorials. You pretty much did everything you're NOT supposed to do.

All you did was take parts from other Pokémon and stick them onto the Golem. And half the time you didn't cut the entire parts, so the tops of the wings are gone. You need to recolor any body parts you stick on. There are also randomly colored pixels, like the blue ones at the Golbat-Golem's left foot.
Also, you shouldn't have put all the sprites on one thing, then color the background black. They should ALL be seperate and the backgrounds should be white.

Learning how to sprite properly has its perks, you know. If you bothered to put in the effort and read the tutorials, these could have come out MUCH better.

Cut 'n' Pasting goin' on! They don't even look like they're part of the sprite, since you didn't even bother recoloring the parts to blend in with the sprite. READ THE FREAKING TUTORIALS.

yeah i'm minimodding again and it's not cool but... take it easy on him, and give more developped crit please.

don't just copy paste, you have to blend parts, otherwhise it won't look natural, so it won't look good.
you have to recolour things, like use golbat colours on golem, that's part of blending.

and try to cut things better, like don't leave pixels of what you don't want to use on the parts you use, and try to have them complete, not like charizard's or golbat's wings.

keep it up, and listen carefully to what people says... mean, their critics, not their flaming, critcs will help you improve.

*inhales* ooohh boy. This'll be a looong one. First off, you left ALL of them on ONE pic. Seperate them. I mean it. All the parts are just cut and pasted o, with no effort to make them look connected. Several of the pieces are even cut off. These are all big no-no's. Also, unless you have a good reason, youa lsway recolor either the parts or the pokemon. You also need to reshade certain parts if they're in a different position and/or lighting. The only half decent one in there is the double golem dude. He looks okay, and kinda cool.

I'm gonna be nicer than the others and say it was pretty constructive of you to try that. Maybe if you make the colour match the Golem a bit more then they'd look as if they're meant to be there. But a bit of praise for effort! ^^

try using different tools to well blend parts like castiboy said otherwise all your sprites will look odd and polygonelle

Yeah, these are very good at all, but if you keep trying and read the tutorials, you may improve...
 
Urgh..

Black space... O.K then Key points.
Cut and paste. These sprites point out really obviously that you've just copy pasted and decided they look good.Blend it more smoothly.
Recolouring: REcolours the part to LOOK like golem, Not just leaving them.
Quality. Does my mix look good? Think avbout it before deciding Your done. If it doesn't, So what if you have to start again or change something, It'll make it look good.

Overall
Hey, My first sprites looked similar to this. Keep trying.

Short answer: No

Long answer: I think (nearly) nobody of the people who replied liked it much. FIrst of all, make them individual images with a white or transparent background. At least don't make it black, 'cos it screws up the outlines. Don't cut parts off, too. Then recolor. Add more parts. Make sure they look blended, do minor custom edits if needed, edit shading on parts where it's not right, and there you have yourself a mix. By the way, the Golem/Ghastly thing is hardly to be called a mix, that's just a Golem sprite, with the Ghastly sprite on top of it, and the eyes a bit screwed up. And how is Golem/Charizard supposed to fly? It's wings are put on backwards. When adding eyes (lickitung), remove the background, and put them on indivually. Finally, don't remove outlines of added parts (Vileplume), and if they don't have any outlines, make them yourself.

Wooo-wah wah
My eyes are bleeding. My mind is bleeding.

You C+Ped. Black backround. No substance, no message. Nothing. Just Nothing. Nothing is good about it, everything is bad. Try again please. Maybe use a white backround to start? Then taking off some peices? And fixing texture? And Shading? And putting in Effort?
