Wow that was some great advice man gonna get some things ready for an interview tomorrow then gonna get to work right away on my sprite.

EDIT : Okay WA I tried my hand at it again I'm more pleased with it and I tried to do the pants like you said 3 time, I just couldn't seem to get it so eventually I just copied the pants and recolored I'm going to work at my spriting skills on those some more though. Anyways here is the new version.

A side by side look at the old female Tyke2 vs the new Grand Tyke fem, somewhat of a quick one on GT.

He's not invisible anymore, hehe.
 
I'll check it out in a moment man, i will edit this post.

One thing i can tell you now is that some of your outlines are too light, unless you're planning to make your own tileset in which this will fit in you should use darker outlines.
At the moment this is most noticeable on you hair and pants.

Use zoom for your images man, easier to see ^^, just add zoom after IMG at both ends.
 
The outline for your hair and pants is too light so it will stand out way too much against any normal tileset when anyone tries to use your character.
You need to define the hair more too, take a look at the character frames (and examples) i've uploaded and you will get a better idea for that.

When you used the pants you got rid of the darker shades or lightened the entire piece altogether making it look bland, so you will need to work on that as well, i don't expect peeps to sprite with darker colors and outlines like i do, but watch out so that you don't go too light on the shades.

Read the other earlier posts for more info on how to improve him more too, keep it up bro.

E-
I'll be lurking for a while this week guys, leave any comments you like and i'll get back to you soon ^^
 
It's not a bad template. I just don't see why people make such tiny templates for rmxp, when it's capable of much more. Respect though, it's pretty fluid looking.

Lexy~ That sprite needs more contrast in it's pallete. Tiny sprites really need to pop, or they are hard to see.
 
Thanks pal ^^

I've been thinking about switching to rpg maker 2k/3 these last few days, love rmxp but i prefer to work with smaller character templates in the end.

Well if i switch over you folks will know when i upload a template anyway XD
 
It's not bad at all man, just needs more contrast all around i think, forgive me but i have no time to add more advice at the moment.
Keep it up bro :thumb:

I'll be working on a secret project for a while (does not have to do with this template) so i'll be gone for a time. 'Till next time folks.

I have been trying some templates and I gotta say your template and the Paradigm Template are the best so far :eek:
I am making a char at the moment, with your template :)

Black hair edit:

It'd be nice if someone could help me with the colours ;x
