Odd fashion is right. He looks more like he's skipping or something. But the shading and all his parts are distinct despite the small size. Interesting little sprite.

the eyes are moving and the face is not, its bad cause I can assume his face is multi symmetric. Try fixing that XD

edit:

and it looks like  cilinder and the pivot is in the middle of it. I think you should move the hair or the face otherwise the animation is impossible =)

 He sure walks a bit lumpy ;) But nice non the less

Good animation and love the style.Keep it up!
