Street Fighter-style self-portrait

[Helm]

I thought I'd edit the legs but this turned out in an all-purpose edit. Pay attention to what I did with your palette. It started in about 30, right? It's 18 colors now. Do you see any loss of information or detail? There's lots of little edits here and there, generally give it a thorough check.

Also,

(I tried to make myself look a lot cooler than I do in real life)

don't worry, that's the whole purpose of drawing yourself as a fighter sprite to begin with.

Helm, you are insane. But you're right.



I managed to work my version down to a paltry 18 colors and I learned a couple other lessons from your edit as well. The only thing from your edit that I discarded was the dithering on the legs, because that would really hurt if I were to try to animate it.

Cool on the colors, but isn't the shin still a bit short? It should be two full heads.

Oop... I *thought* yours looked taller. I'm not very good with proportions... I have anatomy books but I'm usually too free-spirited to refer to them.

Cool sprite, I'd love to see him (you) animated ^^

[Ben2theEdge]

Well, here he... er, I is/am animated.

The hair is a little messed up I guess?

[Xion]

Nice. very very nice. 
Some torso movement, though. The hair looks kinda weird, but yea, very very nice.

[eck]

holy fuck.  thats awasome. 

few crits:

to much knee motion.
to much hair motion.

other then that, awasome. 

[AdamAtomic]

hey nice!  definitely needs some motion on the torso, even some slight lighting changes would go a long way - as it is his hips and shoulders appear to be one big connected piece of plastic, on spring legs!  the guitar movement is nice and natural, just a little shifting and changing through the body would probably finish that off nicely.

I love the animation, the only thing bothering me (or looks strange) is that the legs don't really bend to create the bounce / lift it just kind of pops of to the left and right at the knee section. I think that the knees should sort of bend and the pelvic region should have some motion.

I love the arms/ hands and the hair and the feet.

PS : I am sure in the eyes of us pixeler's you really do look this kewl
