Mmk... So, I am pixelling my muse! First time in a long time, really... Whenever I've portrayed it, it's been on a base so it's easier for me, but now I'm getting into pixelling, and... aaah
 
Here's what I have:
 =>  =>
The bright colors are very unlikely to change, as that is the color of my muse, dang it >_>
 
Pic with  lines drawn on it to help me see where the muscles and whatever are...silly fur:
 
Very, very small (and VERY OLD) picture of my muse:
 
The chest and front paws are what are bugging me the most. Help is very much appreciated.  (And redlines (your drawing over what I have) are welcomed.)

at that moment your lines... her downhalf seems too static, compared to the upper one. give it more dynamic as it is on ref.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean... :/ I don't see exactly what's wrong/what you're trying to point out...
 
Edit: Do you mean: "What they're saying in the front is really good and fluid, but the back is kinda stiff"?

Yes, I thin that is what Mutix is trying to say. The back legs in your ref are angled out more while in your Muse they are pointed upwards. This gives it a static feel; it almost looks as if he is standing.

Also I suggest giving it muscles because some if its front limbs look like noodles.

That's okay. ^^
 
How's this? =x
 
Edit: I can change its right arm completely if it would help for it to look better.

As of right now it seems that the front leg facing us is lifted completely off the ground. I don't know if you wanted that effect, but it seems strange.

Yeah, it looks off to me... I might make it be coming forward more, like it's trying to get the tribble (that's what it's chasing, yes, a plot tribble! all fuzzy...) with both paws.
 
...Yes. >_>

*Sneakydouble posts*
 
Made the front paws hands and changed the position of the arm as well as made the back leg less bulky.
 
I think the back legs are still bugging me, but I'm not certain. :/ I'd say my muse is pouncing the grey tribble-like-creature.
 
Feh. >.<
