Never mind. I just tried posting again and it went through. Probably just a bug.

Pixel Art / [WIP][CC] Villager Walk Cycle
« on: March 28, 2017, 12:48:25 pm »
Hello. I just found this community and it seems really awesome!
I read through all of the rules and FAQs -- I hope that posting these two images here doesn't count as an artdump. I'm posting them together because one is based off the other.
I created this archer a few weeks ago for a game that I'm working on. It's a 2d platformer with some RTS-like mechanics. The animated gifs show the size of the art in-game. (I'll create these at 100% next time)
From this archer, I removed the bow and quiver to create a villager.
The villager's walk cycle doesn't read as well to me. I think it's because the arm doesn't have much contrast and the torso doesn't move, except for a 1-pixel bob. The bow an quiver in the archer hides a lot of these imperfections.
I've tried moving the torso a bit for the villager but it just makes him look a bit lumbering.
What would you recommend to make the villager's walk cycle less boring? Do you have any general feedback on the archer? The archer is the first animated pixel art I'd ever created, so I'm still very new to this medium.
I created all of the assets from scratch, except for the palette, which is DB32.

General Discussion / Are new members quarantined?
« on: March 28, 2017, 12:01:16 pm »
Hello!
I made an account last night and posted to Critique » Pixel Art. I previewed my post a few times then hit "Post" but I'd forgotten to verify that I'm a human. So I went back, verified and hit post again, but then the system told me that I'd already made that post and I probably double-clicked the button.
My post didn't show up on the index, so I tried again 5 minutes later: another duplicate post error.
Was my post auto-quarantined for mod approval because I'm a new member or did I run into a software bug?
