add to the helmet some horns and its dovahkinn =D awesome art
good job with the extra skin color. i would have gone for smaller specular highlights, but this way it looks good, too :)
as for the upper body movement: can't tell what went wrong as long as you don't show what you tried ;) maybe post some link? all I can say is that the upper body/chest should follow the arm, so if the right arm comes front, the right side of the chest turns front and so on... I guess. maybe try to find some youtube clips on it ;)
Very nice changes, I look forward to see this at least in a mockup!
Thanks for the feedback guys! :D
@Imagician: I've added the lighter skin colour and looks a lot better and less flat. Also had a go at rotating the upper body as you surggested but no matter what I tried it just didn't look right, any surggestions?
@failureboy: I agree with you, so I made the axe head a little wider so more of the axe head is showing, so hopefully makes it less underwhelming. :)
@Super17: The pics helped and should look right now. :)
@ Mathias: I'd ask him to put his pants on but he'd most likely chop me into tiny little pieces. :P
@sasuke91 I'm out of pixel polish. :D
Very nice, reminds me of "Gods" a little bit. Speaking of which, I would maybe add one more light skin color on top, to make it a little more shiny, not only because of the Bitmap Brothers touch, it's just that it's a bit dull at the moment (for the behind limbs you can use the bright skin color you already have).
a second more pressing concern is that I would let the upper body turn a bit to each side as he moves the arms front.
The palette, artwork, and animation are better than the earlier version. However I agree that the axe in the right hand is too miniscule due to the angle - I actually prefer the wider stance of the original. I think it would look better as a walking animation if you moved that hand out more (to show off the axe).
Btw the static shot is great and I gave this a 4/5.
Very nice animation! I just would rework the axes a little bit. I think the shaft is too thin or the axe head should be attached in another way. Two pictures to make this clear:

Nice!
For the walk cycle, the axe in his right hand looks a bit underwhelming. Maybe do a thicker axe head?
Alright, nice improvement.
Honestly though, could you imagine going into battle, grabbing yer axes, donning that helm . . . but forgetting ya pants!?
Give the boy some ringmail, mang. Some ringmail boxers. At least.
-OR-
Just make your character female.
very nice, also should put some highlights on the weapons too ^-^
I Love it! Do you have any more of these? (Please post em!)
Reminds me of Golden Axe. I love Golden Axe for the Genesis. : )
