Took about 20 minutes, I think.
Did my first pixel art drawing in early 2014, began doing pixel art more frequently in early 2015.

Hi Kalphablue,

That's a nice piece :)

Depending on the aim, you may keep this 'rigid' way of animating to give this funfair feeling.

But if you want to animate a character with volume, you should think in term of skull and muscles.

Moreover, you should try to animate as many part as possible to give a full motion to his face.

I did a quick edit so you can see what i'm talking about :



Good luck !

Oooh yes, I really like that! I plan on working on more fluid animating in the future.
