im having trouble making arms, could someone block them out, in like red, and ill shade them?
c&c...give me your worst

This is looking goodso far, and it seems to fit the 'style' you've gotten started wiyth your avatar, but it looks somewhat pillowshaded. Try making another version with a lightsource in an extreme corner. As for the arms, don't give them outlines. Use a few pixels of the darkest color on the shadowed edge, but as bits get smaller, so do the amounts of pixels of each color. Try giving him really long fingers like a gecko or adding a bionic claw maybe.

He does look quite pillow shaded, and he's REALLY jagged, it's decent, but could use some work.

I still think he looks a little grainier, and Stwelin's arm edit is freakin' amazingly AWESOME :D

wow...that look dumb...
my fault..
can someone try crossed arms please(ive tried a lot!)
-
mmmm... i don't think the arms are the issue. his legs are in a very unnatural position, maybe try putting them on the same horizontal plane, and less spread apart. just tweak em until it looks natural (unless of course he is supposed to have his foot up on something.)

How's this?

Seriously though, we're here to help you improve, not do your work for you. Asking for an edit once in a while is one thing, but I think repeatedly asking us to make a new pose until you get one you like is a little ridiculous. If you're not sure how to make his arms cross, go stand in front of a mirror and cross your arms, and carefully look at it. Or look at pictures online. You'll improve so much more if you do that instead of asking someone for help whenever you get stuck.
EDIT: You say you've tried crossed arms a lot. Show us! Then maybe we can help point out what's giving you trouble.

Stwelin's leg comment is also right, it looks like his feet are going completely different directions, and possibly like he's oddly propping his left foot on something.
lmfao Darien, you win XD
Also, um, stwelin's arms were pretty awesome...

How's this?

;) amazing.
-
thank you, but let me point out: his back foot is higher to show he is farther back(this isnt exactly strait on)
and also his feet arnt facing different ways, the front one is facing forward. i will try to tweak the legs a little though.

Was it good for you too? :D
His head is very flat looking to me. Try fiddling with it to suggest the form you want.
Right now it's like a piece of paper with chunks cut out, is it meant to be more ball shaped with spikes?
