PHALLIC SWORD POSE!

Please change :\ I'm getting penile impressions even though I don't want to.

I do like the cowboy design, though, interesting and all :]

So does someone know how to solve these issues without draging the style too much from the other grafics?
You could try giving it a white outline... and change his stance a bit, so it actually looks like he's ready to fight with a sword.(And it doesn't give anymore uh, penile impressions)

A white outline would hinder this piece more than it would help, I'm afraid.

So I finally removed the sword, and changed the pose to a more dynamic shooting/showdown like pose, but I'm afraid it looks much worse now.
(right one is brighter edit for readability, which doesn't work that well also)

something seems to be very wrong about his pose especially his right (our left) arm. I just cant find out how to fix it  :/

(edit: fixed the image url)

Howdy. I love what you've got going, very atmospheric. In regards to the (our) left arm, maybe his shoulder needs to be more defined, and the arm needs to be shifted to the left 1 pixel. Forearm might need to be lengthened 1 pixel, also.

I edited them:
first stance i putted it two pistols, and on the second i modified right arm, it remids now to ocelot a bit ^^

also your game is beginning to look like the one who is inspiring me to make my own sidescroller...blackthorne. are you even referenced a bit by that game? i'd like to know ^^...

@smiker: I haven't heard of blackthorne before. Just looked at some screens over at moby games and I don't think that it's too similar. Played flashback while starting this, which has very similar backgrounds ;)
about the edit: the first one seems very unreadable, the second does some things better than my so I tried to make the left arm facing down and still give it a bit more tension than your edit had.
