Well, to start out, you look like you have the basic concept down. However, those pants REALLY need some reconstruction. They look very strange. Also, His legs very crooked, but that might just be me. You have a good start there, keep it up!

 

[Acex89]

Thanks I'll recheck the pants
as for the strangness they look a little better in game
moving
But I don't know
I was told to stay away from "pillow shading"
which in the straight and narrow like clothing is concerned
is the easiest approach I tried to make them work
and yeah standing still like he is

they look really crappy

something about the hair.... It just doesn't look right. maybe make it longer? Oh and good luck man. I'd help but I am no good at HK. I'm trying to learn though and these good help so keep on going!!!

I'd recommend redoing your palettes. The shading's not too bad, but the shift between colors is pretty drastic.
Try using this for colors instead.

Hell I never used a pallette thanks man I am sure it will help alot!

No problem. Now for the real critique.
You don't have any clear shading- it's all (what look to be) random lines of highlight and shadow. Try looking at a few tutorials on proper shading.
Hair casts a shadow. This is the most common mistake people make. Shade under the hair with darker skintones. It makes it so much better.
Jaggies - these are the enemy of all good pixel art. Jaggies are when lines don't curve naturally, or have 2pixel widths. They are evil and must be eradicated.

Hope this helps.

The one pixel of hair that is touching his left eyes kind of makes it look like he's sad. :D
Anyway, you intend to re-making the hair, yes? I'm going to put my spine to it and ask you, did you resize the hair and edit it? Also, it seems that you forgot that he's supposed to have a bag attached to his waist.

Good luck.

Didn't forget just blown up to that size...it looked pretty stupid

as for the question about the hair I don't understand what you ment by resize the hair?

You're using the old full kaizers ergo you're wasting your time. Nobody uses it anymore, not even me . Try the HK temp, its MUCH easier to sprite on and there are a lot of people making sprites on them .
