Bigger beard. Other than that, it looks OK.

But, there still remains the question... why are you spriting Jesus? :-/
 
Get rid of all the outlines inside the sprite- just use darker shades and leave the black to the outside. Make sure the outline around the head is black, too. Look in my sg for an example.

Other than that, yeah, he needs a beard. :)
 
:D Thanks for all the wonderful feedback. I always love Comments and Critiscism. Anyways, I have a few questions and statements to reply to:

#1. I acknowledge now that his beard is not there. I forgot.

#2. I added the Halo last, as it symbolizes innocence and holiness, a feature I'm sure you'll agree, Jesus had. Though normally he is depicted without it, in a few he does have it, and I went with it.

#3. Yes, recent speculations have concurred that Jesus was indeed black due to his upbringing in an Arab country. This being said, the original, christian idealistic look of Jesus was what I chose because it is most familiar with the wider audience.

#4. I added the black interior lines because the lack of contrast made it all blend in far too well. I thought about adjusting contrast, but that really didn't work to well.

#5. I love your template, Cortez, and am honoured you even replied to this. You are an outstanding Pixel Artist in my opinion, as am sure is also the opinion of others.

#6. And please, keep the critiscism coming, as I apply comments and critiscism to all my work, especially my tile-setting. As I am a better tilesetter than spriter.
 
im glad yer making the lord... and just cuz he was in the olden times doesnt mean he had a beard... tho it is most probable... whether jesus was black or white... i dunno... but yer doing a fine job in making him... he looks abit... young tho... and maybe make his garments look more... israelian(did i spell that right?(he looks like he's wearing a dress... no offense...)) and that would help too...
 
Why the blue eyes? why so pale? Why so caucasican?
Why, oh why?
He should be a dark skinned, jewish-looking hippie-style guy from 30 A.C.
Instead it looks like a TV show healer/savior sect-leader from the 70's.

Even so, the chara looks great... Not so "Jesus"... but it has good shades and well done hair. But the eyes lack contrast. They look empty.
