Whoa, you're right about that waist! Other than that, there aren't any major problems with this sprite, it looks pretty good.. Unless it's a style your going for, perhaps you could break up the black outlines some... ? Some people might say her jaw line/chin needs to be softened, but it's more interesting to me like this.

what's her hair supposed to be? Ox-horns? It's a little hard to tell.

Update soon... or tell me I'm wrong, lol 

Thanks, I was hoping it'd be 'Sonic-esque' instead of 'Sonic-ripoff', hehe. xD

Ooo, good call on the walk cycle. I posted an edit on the top post. I redid the leg animations from scratch and added more 'bounce' to the body and face... which probably means I need to do the same to the running cycle, damnit. 

It looks really good. Re: The front view, nice progression from left to right. Maybe what's bugging you are the sideburns? They don't translate very well from the front for me. Adding ears would help, but from what I'm seeing that would go against your character design. I think the sideburns look better in the second to forth ones from the left.

The perspective of the front face and the pupils in all of them make him appear to be looking down; is that intentional or is it supposed to come as large anime eyes?

OK, first, those goblins are pretty cool. 

Have to agree with Squiggly: the player sprite and the goblins don't really match much, style-wise.

The original player sprite had more pleasing proportions and seems like it would look slightly less out of place with the goblins. The anatomy (a stylistic choice or not) on this one is well, awkward, mostly the arm; it either needs to be thinned out or the muscles need to be defined and sectioned off in a more anatomically correct way if you want him to have muscular arms. Right now it looks like a grilled hot dog.

The colors on the sprite are great, but the shading on the arm doesn't match the rest of his body.

I'm digging the concept art for the baddies--just wondering, do you have any with the human as well?

Use a lighter color for the shading of the hair. Another edit:



Re-used the darkest shade of her skin for the hair. You were going for a dark blonde/light-brown color?
