That is ReconMan, because I don't have a better name yet. I got a new computer, so no, im not making a game out of this, im just spriting for fun... so... whatdoya think? The legs when running annoys the hell out of me.

Oh and btw, im limiting myself to vista's default ms paint pallete. that's why there's still black, and the camo is shaded weird.

Update 1: Made changes to animation and shading. No change made to arms

His standing sprite is really weird. One leg is bent, yet one is straight. Is one leg longer than the other? And his feet look strange in the running sprites, too. They tip back too far. Apart from that this is pretty decent I guess. I do quite like those camo pants.
 
can u explain the running animation a bit.

and the standing thing, since, i have a hard time shading that, it probably does look like on leg is straight, but both legs are the same size and bent the same way.
 
Very out of proportion, imo. He looks deformed.

Have a look at anatomy pics. His arms and too long, compared to the legs/head.

Um, I suggest using a reference for spriting. From scratch things come out odd.
 
no offense intended, dont wanna sound like an ass or anything, but i could tell that the arms were too long, but if you really think i should shape em up, i will.
