It has been nearly two years since I stopped doing pixel art, so bare with me because I'm trying to learn how to do it again.

Even when I was doing it before, animating stumped me, how do I draw the next series of frames? Its all very trying and I don't want to be left in the dark forever.

So how would I go about doing the animation? What are tips and techniques for doing it?

I do have a concept image:


Thanks in advance.

Tsugumo's " http://gas13.ru/v3/tutorials/sywtbapa_making_fighting_game_sprite.php - So you want to be a pixel artist " tutorial is the best I know.
See pages 9-11 for animation.
Feel free to come back with specific questions.
