I'm actually way past mock-up stage with this thing, but this sketch was just too cute not to share

Whew. Advice helped a lot Thanks guys.

Thomas Finch: I really like that icon, it's like a small Final Fantasy 6 enemy.

Blaster: I like the homage (although I've never really liked Sonic... ) It seems like depth is missing on the grass, as the bridge is drawn with a sort of isometric depth. Also: fuck yeah samurai birds.

Christopf and SL: Thanks man, excellent suggestions and observations Back to work with new input~  ... wait, it's the weekend 

So I've stared myself blind at this girl here. I guess any advice would be nice before I start animating her. If something is odd or off, please come with suggestions to how I can correct it. Example: I'm trouble seeing when my characters do not look like the intended gender. So if she doesn't actually look like a girl right now, I'd also need advice as to which part might cause this.

But in any case, any and all comments and pieces of advice are welcome, thank you

Oh yeah and the feet/shoes are still parts I haven't focused too much on, so comments on them are redundant

barbiturates I have an art-crush on you.





I can't figure out how to resize images on this board. Sorry for the large size...

EDIT: Thanks barbiturates!

Blambo: You're right. Tried giving it another go Moved the head forward. Looks better with the diagonal movement now and fixed some other stuff.

I'm thinking of a conversation game. It needs passionate speakers.

@sketchwhale I'm fond of everything, but the face kind of irks me, maybe it's the shape or maybe it's the how static it feels.

I really wanted the face to be different too, but couldn't find a way to convert the slightly more expressive eyes in the sketch into pixels

Phew... it's... as done as I care right now.

For some reason tinypic.com speeded up the GIFs... The animation is going way too fast. Maybe it's just my browser.

Big 'n small comparison.



Original sketch comparison.

It's a drinking-game

Haha, lets say yes.

But, no, I think I just messed up with the AA. It's something I  need practice on.

Hey cool style. 
I made a small edit, I messed up with aa and outlines a little to make it more clear, but I guess it'd would also ruin your current style. 

:D Love the edit! Though I mistook Pikachu for having no arms and cross-eyed boobs for a second 

Schoq: Got me You might have been right to begin with: Idly "animation" could be said to be unnecessary in this resolution.

schoq and jaws01: Those are insanely cute. Thank you guys, you are so nice. I don't think I could have done what you did. I'd argue it isn't what I was going for, but holy crap they are good

Sad Stanley: It's supposed to look like it's breathing: Arms going up and down, chest expanding, head tilting ever so slightly

thatshelby: Moving pixels in this resolution seemed to make a way too exaggerated effect. I searched for small idle animation and found that Metal Slug just moved the light points for great effect.

schoq: I just wanted to see if I could do an idle animation at that size.

I changed a few details around the arms, hurried the frames by 0.05 seconds and added some extra frames for blink. Thanks It's much better now.

I've been trying to make this little dudette stand idly by. But it's haaaaaard.

Suggestions for how to improve the animation are welcome.

I have a friend who has a hoodey like this.

Hahah, no he is giving thumbs up. Oh well, better luck next time :D

"That's good shit son!"


Jørn Utzon pixel animation sketch.

It kinda looks like he's rolling hos shoulders...

Hi. New here. Here's a little sprite animation sketch I made last night
