I'm going to agree with the others. You've taken a step back with the new one. You say preference, but that doesn't excuse bad technique that more experianced artists are seeing. What really bothers me is that you're using the same amount of colours than before, and yet the sprite looses some of its key details? The solid black outline is what really gets to me, and that should be a big no in anyones book.
IMHO the old one was actually cleaner, the black lines and missing AA in the new version just make it look more cluttered and blocky. Also some of the shading in the new version seems dangerously close to pillow-shading.
@cure @Rayovatron I understand the preference of you, I tried to make this edition more "clean"!
I prefer the old one, the new one uses too much black outlining.
I prefer the old, though the shading on the leg and arm of the new one is better.
