Very beautiful.

Well, you happened to add the thumb holding the sword and the blue from the hilt isolates the thumb and makes it look like it's either going through the sword, unless that's not his thumb, in which I would suggest changing the colour as it is kind of deceptive.

Looks good, though the sword's hilt seems just a bit too thick.

I was actually having quite a lot of trouble with her jaw line, chin and mouth and I just wasn't sure what to do. I looked at a lot of other sprites, but in the end I'm still not really sure.

Khris: Yeah, I'm Xiii. I was mostly just looking at this community, but I decided since I'm going to spriting a lot very soon that I should post my stuff up here to get a lot more criticism. This piece to me is done, the character is going to be redesigned with a different style. I originally wanted him for a different fighter, but I need to redraw him to fit a different vision. That and yeah, I was mostly messing around with different styles (3S lines, KoF Details) and my old thread on SRK actually has a picture of Loc without the abs showing through the shirt, but I thought this looked better and more distinct.

Adam: I really appreciate the time you took to add the selout and change up the colors. They stand out much more, but it's a bit too bright and saturated for me. Might just be me, but I've also looked at some tutorials and also your edit and selout seems to just be kind of dependent on color palette selection or it might just be how I originally sprited the character. I do like some of the minor shading you added which I'll make note of for future references.

I have to admit there are a lot of jaggies, but hopefully I'll be able to overcome that painful issue. I plan to sprite about 15 new characters over the next couple of months while I work on my game so hopefully I can find a way to address that.

3rd time should be the charm if the saying is correct.

I'll look into some selout tutorials. I was having a great deal of trouble with the coloring and shading. I wanted him to have the Freeman kinda look from Garou MOTW, but Loc is no goth. I'll work on it with my future pieces.

Yeah kinda forgot, I had fixed up and finished off the character, but then photoshop crapped out on me and I didn't know the transparency wasn't saved =_=

Also Krakatoa, I do have a version that doesn't have that stuff, but after looking at SNK's stuff and trying it out, it looked rather good to me. Again, I'm new to spriting, but I'm trying different things to see what looks good and what I can or can't do right now. I don't know, does it really look that strange? SNK sprites have tons of characters with muscle bound clothing and it looks good to me.
