Cop and other pixels

[LMR]

Instead of studying I did some random pixeling.

I don't know if the sprite is clear enough but it's supposed to be a cop with gun and living hat that has siren attached on it's head.

I'm not a really good animator as you can see so all the advice to make animations smoother/better are welcome. 

Also I'm not sure if the blue I'm using should be a bit brighter?

(I don't remember where to put commas in english, so if my sentences are messy sorry about that   . It's been a while since I wrote something in english...)

Cute! I think it's readable as-is, but a brighter blue would probably help anyway. The only thing that bothers me is the way the hat's left eye moves around when he's walking.

[Souly]

Awe, this is quite cute.
I think maybe his gun arm should go behind the gun I dunno why it just seems odd in front.
Also if you could give him the same lift he has when his left leg goes in front.
Cause the right leg seems to be less dynamic.

Notice in one frame how none of his feet are on the ground, either fix that or add it to the same frame for the opposite leg if that makes sense. :]
Looking good though I'm not sure I like the selout on his helmet since he has it no where else.

Looks cool, this reminds me of old snes bomberman games haha. I have an objection though, and is with the animation... the part with the hat, that was previously mentioned, it doesn't coordinate well with the rest of the animation. In my opinion, the ball shouldn't bounce at all like that.

Its good to work on a literally, gray background, helps a lot. Fixed the light-source, tried to make it stand out more, this was really fun to edit I gotta say, you got a great style going for you.

my only question, why on the helmet it jumps up and down, but the two 'dots' which im guessing are holes are something. why are they staying in the same place?

Thanks for the great freedback everyone!

Yeah the way it moved was pretty disturbing but should be better now.

The new gun animation is still wip, but i'm working on it. I don't know if the left leg has more dynamic move now( I did a small chance, not really that notable), I'm working on it too. I also tried to make the 2nd frame to similiar to 4th but the result was bit wonky, so I'm trying to figure what to do with it.
I used selout to make the helmet more roundish, without it the helmet looked too blocky imo. I added selout to cop's arms to balance it more.

Now that you mention I can see the similarities too.  Well I tried to make it less bouncy, but the idea was that the hat is blobbyish so it's supposed to bounce.

That there is a one handsom edit.  I tried to fix light-source more in mine and ripped the badge thing on his chest (hope you don't mind  , I'll remove it if it bothers you  ). Also changed my palette a bit.

The eyes should be better now.

I would remove the outline on the right side of the lamp

Better? Also did some small fixes.

[Pizza Tom]

Looks much better now, I think. 

One nitpick though: the light at the top seems to be moving back and forth more than the helmet is, and creates the illusion that it's sliding around.

[Souly]

The back of the helmet is morphing. O.o
Other then that I still like this, nice new colors.

Run looks wayy better now I think.

I noticed that I haven't finished some of my older pixels...  so I'm gonna finish 'em now in this topic. 



Her wings are still wip ~

Nice, don't forget to check some reference for those wings.

Whats that sticking out of the shield? A tongue?

[Ergg]

Yes it seems to be a tongue.. it's strange. However it's very good.

Exept maybe the sword, it looks more as a mace than a one.

[Atnas]

I see a feather and a heavily studded club. :>

Some thinks to watch out for: the selout on the head doesn't look very good and neither does the dramatic foreshortening of the leg. You can fix both of these by making them less pronounced... A lighter tone for the blackish color on the hair and by shrinking the foot less. Everything else is really solid on this so it doesn't make much sense to make the foot in the background so dramatically smaller. You can use the plain guideline that objects get shorter in length but not in width for something like this.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I will definetely use reference and it's supposed to be a tongue.

It is a mace.

I tried to correct those issues you mentioned and also edited her legs and the tongue(I hope it reads more as a tongue this time). :]
