Figured might as well post a singular thread and just throw all of the images in here, as I progress. Anyway, I'm currently working on character design, mostly animation and what not. Right now trying o get the side view finalized and started working on the walking animation. Here is the progress on both so far:

PS: Sorry for double posting this, as there is already a thread about this on second page, but if mods could just delete it I'd appreciate it =D Honestly I should have started with a broader title to begin with. Oh also I did end up removing the back hand on the side view =)

Anyway any critique and commentary is always welcome.

[Edit] Updated with the walking animations so far.

This is the thread I'll use to dump alot of GFXs I'm making for a Graal Online server Stuffed. The idea is pretty simple: A bunch of stuffed animals and possibly other dolls come to life after people leave the room and kill each other. Idea is to create a 2D Deathmatch sort of dealie with many modes, weapons, and so on.
To Graalians: Yes I am aware this has been thrown around Graal Forums, but idea has never been claimed, it always just went under "Hey wouldn't it be cool".

Anyway, I'm trying to create a very cartoonish look to the whole place (read cell shaded?), my main problem though is I suck at palettes so picking out colors is very tough to me =( Moreover my pixeling experience is very small, so I am in many terms a newbie.

Anyway, here is the first thing, character design. I'm thinking oversized heads and absence of limbs (hands don't have arms, feet don't have legs). Reason for this is ease of animation.

(Note, blue palette has been blatantly taken out of cave's avatar, just wanted to see what it'd look like styled and draw with those colors =(, don't hate me!)

All and any criticism is welcome! I am pretty sure I screwed up shading, and highlights and stuff, I'm trying to work that out now x.x
