Love your sprites. Work a little on the shading, and they'll be close to perfect. =P
I also just so happen to use sideview for a project, and have a request because I personally suck at making sprites:
-Female (duh).
-Long red hair.
-Red eyes.
-Black clothes, notably a black miniskirt. =D
-Black boots (out of view in picture).
-Katana (Japanese Sword) as weapon.
Charset used:
If you make this one, you'll have my eternal gratitude!
