SPRITERS: Need some C&Cs on my sprite

[jebuskribus]

Hi! My first post on this Forum :P
Well, I started to play around in RMXP a couple of days ago and have just started to make my own sprites.
started off with combining some tilesets and editing them a little bit.
But I want to learn spriting better so I decided to make a charset of a robot.
I know the lightning and shading isn't as it should be and thats why I created this thread.

Please give me some tips (Critique) and thaughts(Comments) of what to improve and change on my little robot before I finish my Charset :P when it's done and i'm happy with the result i'll upload it for everyone to use:D

This is good! What perspective were you going for? Right now the top of the robot looks strange, however that may have been what you're going for. If you are going for an RTP like perspective it should be more like this:

Ignore the thing on the right.

Also, remember that you shouldn't use pure black in pixel-art.

Thanks Sonata, well uhm.. I thaught it would look nice if you saw him a little more from the front, but now that you mention it, that wasn't that cleaver 'cous I want it to be a RTPchar so, changing time!

Also, remember that you shouldn't use pure black in pixel-art.

Roger That! right now i'm working on the frontview walktile.
Thaught I might give hime a wiggle on his torso so that when his left foot is in front, hi leans to the right, but only the torsopart. i'll keep uploading pictures as i make progress!  :smile:

Thanks again man!
