   A fearsome ghoul sprite... I hope. Used a posing model as a reference.  Any thoughts or suggestions on how to improve this?

	I would play with that green ramp to include some grey or other neutral. Anatomically the crotch seems wrong, there should be no thigh under the bulge me thinks.

	yup. I would suggest that you ignore the figure altogether for now and concentrate a bit on colors. Just look at the color palette 12345678 1 + 2 run together 5 + 6 run together also I think adding 1 shade to serve as the tier shade say 2 + 5 would not change much yet with one less color you can then add a deeper red so that its right eye can be darker than its right eye. If that makes no sense then just explore colors more. Delete, diversify, experiment. ps: Is this iso? If so its right eye needs to be 1px higher. Edited by jalonso - 16 January 2008 at 6:01pm

	Let's do one more here... No, it wasn't meant to be isometric, though it does sort of look that way.
