[Slow]

On an animation(s) and some other sprite(s).

Here is the animation I'm seeking crit' on.




Here are the sprites.

So I don't much about animations so I'm just restating what I've read often about walk cycles.

Your guys head/body don't move up and down at all with the walk.  The legs move up and down and the body rotates but the head/body should bob a little as he walks along.

I like the look of the sprite a lot, especially the scaled up one.

That first character has good readability, but that protagonist could use more contrast. And some arms.
This should help you on your way.


I also did a quick animation to assist you in your further endeavors. Keep it up.

Thanks to both of you for the crit'. I'll end up remaking the sprite, hopefully with improvements.

What bothers me the most is that the head is rotating so much; people don't usually walk watching primarily to their side. Maybe try to turn the head so the character looks more on the direction it's moving, and on idle turning the head towards the screen again.

Following the guide green posted, I've come up with this(remade sprite as a bonus!)




Opinions?

That a nice improvement in contrast with the last one. @Green, thanks for the little guide! It will help a lot!!
