C&C please. This is for hopefully an online platform shooter similair to Soldat. He has no arms because those will be a seperate sprite.

Even so, I think you should post his arms so we can crit him as a whole.  The face looks garbled.  I can't tell what direction he's supposed to be facing, or is he supposed to be looking at the viewer?  The feet suggest so.  For the coloring, I suggest higher contrast.   For small sprites, it's important to learn how to deal without using outlines inside a sprite, as they waste precious space and create an artificial edge.  Segmenting by color alone is usually sufficient.

The faces remind me of Terrance and Phillip... "Shut your f*cking face, uncle f*cker..."

Look at some smaller sprites from othe games to see how they do the faces.

Anyway yeah, you need to include the arms too.
