Hey, guys. I am a big fan of pixel art, but I am not really much of a pixel artist. I am a programmer - well, still learning. Anyway, I wanted to make a game character for use in a game, if I ever get that far. I am to the point where I would like it to be critiqued. Before I post the images I want to say what I was going for: SNES/GBA-style, 16x24 RPG-type sprite. This is my first (I tried a few years ago, but the result wasn't so good - always been better at pixeling objects). I wanted to make an original sprite (i.e. I didn't want it to look exactly like the games I love (like FFVI and CT), but wanted it to look decent in case I do make a playable demo). So, here it is (a nose and non-nose version).
One specific thing I would like feedback on is the nose. I wanted to make my sprite look a little more original/realistic, but does it just make the character look childish? It is hard for me to make a 16x24px sprite look adult.
