OK I thought I was done with my fighter sprite.  I am not.  Couple of people pointed out the muscle structure on each leg does not match.  I tried changing the size and shape of the muscles on his right leg (on our left) to try and match the other leg but I'm just not happy with it.  I don't normally ask for help but I'm too tired and out of ideas on how to fix it.

I think the problem may just be the pose. The way that the forearm and thigh coincide it gets a bit confusing. Like there's a super-skinny thigh in front of an overdeveloped forearm. I think my eye just keeps trying to form this big forearm because of the similar colors above and below the thigh muscles. Feral is looking like a badass though. :D

thats a pretty kool sprite!  I would say that the right thigh is too thin.  and I would go with the bottom left edit, but a bigger thigh muscle.

samson is definitely right about the thigh muscle blending with the forearm. Might help to do something with his right arm.

Rifts thanks for the edit but you did make the thigh far too thin.  It just looks wrong to me and not how I do my style.

I don't intend to do anything with his right arm because he's supposed to have both by his side like that.  I made the outline between his arm and leg a lil thicker and to me it looks a lot better.  It's kinda his fighting stance.  No fancy martial arts crap.  He mostly lashes out with the fists and claws, the broken chains would whip around after certain attacks adding another small hit to the opponent.  He's kinda my retaliation to all that wire fu crap thats in movies these days that I'm just so damn sick to death.  I wanna see brutality, heavy hitting, bone breaking, high impact violence.

Anyways I'm done with it.  Thanks for the suggestions but I'm totally bored with this sprite and gotta get on with the paid work I gotta do.  Someone close the topic if ya can.
