Thanks to Helm, istvan and Dhaos for their help.

Portrait: very nice. My crit would be that her neck seems much too thin compared to the size of the head.
Tactics sprites: I feel most of them are just plain too busy and "unclean". There are too many stray pixels and needless details which would probably be lost in-game. IMO they'd need more flat areas. From all those I think the slime looks the best.
Items: the same iisue as the sprites. The first three are nice, though.

@Dhaos - thanks. The letters form: "sh4ll w3 r0x0rz?". I edited his face a bit, though I had to add one more color. The shading makes more sense now.
@Helm - you're right about the arms, I made the left one longer. As for the hands, I'm aiming for more realistic design. I'm kind of tired of those oversized hands, huge feet and bulgy muscles =)
@istvan - yup, it's the "invincible star" from Mario =D And his legs are longer than normal, I like to draw them that way (OK, so that part is NOT realistic ;)

Thanks for all the suggestions. Oh, and I just overwrote the original files, you will probably need to refresh the page to see the changes.

Yup, I watched it yesterday. Very professional (yeah, I know you hate that word =)
This should be number one tutorial for beginner tile artists, it covers many important points.
I liked that you didn't just go and draw those tiles, but also very well explained WHY it should be drawn like that. Many facts are useful not only for tiles, but for sprites too.
In short... good job =) Are you already thinking about making another one?
BTW, I'm guessing English is not your first language?

Pixel Art / KoS Sprite/Portrait

OK, I finished my fighter. But before I actually submit, I'd like to get rid of some more obvious errors, so crits would be appreciated.
Sprite:


And the portrait. Yeah, I still suck at anything bigger, but... it's better than nothing ;)


Both in the same palette of 17 colors.

I thought more about shiny white eyes, like this:

Oh, whatever, those don't really look good anyway.
And I made your gif transparent:


You can easily do that in newer versions of IrfanView.

As for the face maybe you could try to leave it black and only put two light dots for the eyes. Or slightly lighten his cheeks/nose/chin.
And I agree about the sleeve, it would fall down.
