Re: Low-poly 3D art
That looks pretty accurate to me, nice!
I think maybe the difference I'm seeing is the textures look more smooth? I'm guessing that has to do with the mesh since you said you got the textures straight from the disc, but I'm even less of a graphics artist, heh.

Re: Low-poly 3D art
My advice for the textures/models/meshes is even simple free tools like blender can smooth these meshes to remove the "jaggies".

Re: Low-poly 3D art
Looking nice! My only small problem here is that the pixel interpolation of the textures removes the crispness of the textures in the original games 
I like the look of low-poly 3d in general... there's a certain charm to it.
How big is each "tile" on the texture?

Re: Low-poly 3D art
Oh, amazing, I somehow always thought they were 64x64

Re: Low-poly 3D art
Wow, nice work! This takes me back. 
I think the main improvement would be to use tiled textures between those of the cliff's wall and its grassy top; the current ones look like they're stretching a little too high?
Also, Sheep's right! In Spyro 2 and 3, 64x64 textures are available for closely-viewable surfaces (haven't checked Spyro 1, but IIRC it's the same). Recommend using those!
