I actually really like the new sprites. The monsters look fantastic. The only crits I have is move the eyes down before you go any further and maybe expand the hole in the dark monster's face. Right now it looks like he ist going to tip over.

I don't get what it is. Also, I don'tunderstand what is in your avater either. A tree and a building? This is really hard to read so far.

You've made progress, but you still haven't learned to color well enough. The walk looks pretty good but for coloring you should really study some good iso sprites. Look at Adarias's sprites for example to understand how to color so your sprite doesn't look so muddy. The dithering and colors do not help, or express the character's clothing well enough. The hair needs some work also, but it is not bad.

I can't stress it enough. Study some iso bases and sprites and attempt to folow the same examples.

I've attempted a few sand tiles. I've noticed the blander it looks separate, the better it looks together. Also, like Xion said, a rock every once in awhile can make a big difference. Other then the sand, everything looks amazing. The two tiles for the paths do clash a little but nothing that distracting. The house is also much better looking then your last attempt at a house. It is actually very attractive.

The one problem I see is the legs and feet. They seem really spread out and the feet also curve outward.

I made a small edit to show you what I mean:
