I'm making a platformer base defense game and there are airbornes dropping from dropships. But the thing is I couldn't really animate it (someone helped me with the sprite) and because of that I am not able to continue the project since the airborne looks too big. Can anyone fix this issue and maybe add an animation for the opening of the parachute?

Here is the guy:

Hello, thanks for the reply!

1- My purpose was to make a game with the theme "Smiley's Gone Bad" so my characters are just smileys with feet and hands and weapons 

2- The light was going to be added (normal sun at the top) but i think i need to improve this smiley first

3- Ok, thanks for the tip 

4- It was originally black outline but I tried to copy the smiley heads in here which came out like that 

5- That part was in my mind but I couldn't add it to the character (like gestures smileys make) because i couldn't even draw it properly :S

6- I was going to make it look more like a gun but failed

7- I actually checked out a lot of sources before posting here but this seems to be the best i could make so far, but i'll try to improve it and post it here later on.

Thanks for your help 


EDIT BUTTON!!!


I updated my character. Hope this looks better now



As always, any type of criticism and help will be appreciated
