What's that based on infinite? Sure unwanted texture can make it look quite rough but it's all in the artists intentions, I agree maybe dithering the highlights may be a tad OTT but atm he looks more like he's dirty. Unless you mean him to be a shiny metal robot SirBilly. Then as I mentioned before it may be helpful to get some decent metal references.

well I'd be suprised if anyone here is such a bird expert, I've found an interesting video on youtube with some good slow motion side angles of birds with explainations to how their designs differ. May help there's a great slo mo shot of a bird from 3:26 then a duck right after. Though eagles differ they're wings all the same should help for the angles you're going for, though I personally think it'd be nice to see the back wing for sense sake, otherwise you'd only ever see the one wing and it may just look a bit weird.

working on Fidsah's lovely edit I just thought I could give a bit of random critique.

    With yellow teeth>>

Had a quick go at doing this with 4 colours (if ya don't count white), I just think a bit of shape would do a lot for these sprites whether you want a restricted palette or not. I don't think you can give him noticably yellow teeth without making this character on a larger scale, you've gotta understand there isn't enough pixels to do it sucessfully, it just wouldn't read well, well I don't know what you think but I personlly think it's just a bit of a kerfuffle around the mouth.. If you where to design a game with this character you'd most likely do a larger portrait of the character.

I really like the design of this character though, there's a lot of room for expression, exaggerated movements and biting n such  :D

goodluck with this, hope it helped.

made a quick edit that may inspire some changes though i've only touched on a few things, bit more contrast with your colours would help plus the addition of black and white can help this. I think dithering on the balls of the arms creates too much un-needed texture, I think if anywhere you could get away with dithering the metal of the robot where the shades leave room for it. I had a mega quick go at making it a tad more metalic but I really think some references would help in getting the lighting more believable. Some other things I've changed would be obviously the palette, maybe a bit too bland with the arms now but was really pushing to share colours elsewhere. The eyes I'd suggest could just be like two glass lenses built into the head. And finally the stance, I know it's an odd angle but something just felt a bit off balance still, just straightened the left leg so it looked sturdier plus flipping his foot and correcting to try make it seem more stable.

Well hope anything helps, goodluck with this man.

Whats with putting the eyes so high on the head? I think you need to research a bit into the construction of a human head, whether cartoony or not it all generally sticks to the same guidelines.

This may be a good little video to watch, he seems to explain it in a clear consistant way.

But I'd always suggest to learn from life, whether you search for pictures or simple draw from observation there's no better way to learn. Try not to mimic someone else's drawings without full knowledge of why and hows.

might be useful to..
