NES sprites using 4 colors from NES palette (3 plus transparency).

This was something I felt like doing on the side. These soldiers are customizable to the player's tastes. The warriors start with two body types: normal and large. The head types are universal for both body types except for some. Some are only specified for certain body types, which help with certain attributes. The upper body and leg parts can be switched. What is displayed shows examples for both body types. The ability to customize the player comes from the Japanese Famicom game "Cocoron", which was what inspired me to do these sprites.

The ones labeled in gray are head variables from the Bions series and the ones in red are from Carnivac's Hero C.F. (which are a huge tribute to him and his project, because it's just friggin' awesome)

Your armor designs remind me of the suit in Vanquish. Good stuff.

His right arm gets a little lost, but overall very good. 

(I love your gallery, by the way.)

I disagree completely  These look superb to me.  I see a lot of shape and definition and can basically stare at these for ages admiring them. I wish more sprites were like this.  Certainly this artist has become among my very favorite low color spriters and I always look forward to more of this stuff.  Which given the fact I'm generally very bored with pixel art overall is a huge deal.

@Riva - Thanks for the feed back. I originally thought about submitting it this way, but I don't take the extra time to get things all the way right when submitting... usually.

Most of it is right. The stance etc. But I think you tryed to cram too many details into too small sprites, destroying shading that defines a shape. So if I exagerate it, now I see a stylish white silouette with something like a noise of pixels over it.

Plus Im sorry but  I dont really like this 'I made a tiny sprite and then duplicated it 150 times with minor variations' thing that I see on PJ a lot this days.
