The body is all that this has got going for it, in it's current state. the face needs some major work, i suggest studying some of the commercial sprite's face structures/techniques.  the one here looks like a scribbled anime... something.  The hair looks a bit too flopped on, like a mop on top of a bald guy's head. it needs a little more weight, perhaps.

The torso looks really good, however, the back looks like it might be sticking out a bit too much, maybe if you moved the arm up one pixel and to the left one pixel...  Also, his index finger is humongous.

The pants look pretty good, but i think that they could be a bit thinner, especially towards where they meet the shoe.

Tried messing around with the pallette and made lots of small changes, dunno if the head looks any better now. Hair looks kinda bad against the forum background :|

Edits are welcome

Did a little work here on the head/hair and the hand.


I used this as a reference for the hair. yours was a lacking structure, so i gave it a little weight and form.

Alright, I did an edit off of stwelin's edit.

I don't know what was up with the back.. O.o;
But I fixed it, and I also added his hand poking out from the back.
Because his right arm just doesn't exist.

Edited up stwelin's hairjust a bit.
As well as I worked on the thumb
Still looks weird but I think its getting there.

the selout on the back is horrible but you get the point.
Also made the back hand way too light.

The hair is supposed to be floaty like that I guess. Here's the ingame sprite:


I tried to add the other hand but it just ended looking really weird, and it shouldn't really be visible from that angle.

it sort of looks like the torso is at a diffrent angle to the legs?

I think I'm finally satisfied with the upper body. Not sure about the new legs though D:
