Hello folks, I've been a long time lurker first time poster.
I am looking to animate this fellow, he is the wanderer class from Darksouls. I figured I would post my progress, however slow it will be. As this is my first time animating. 
Any critique or general advice would be great. |

| Looks like you've either saved as a .jpeg or uploaded a .bmp. |

I saved it as a .BMP and a .Gale image just to take a break for a few hours, My computer likes to crash.
Do .BMP's not show up on these forums? It isn't animated yet, thus the WIP. |

| Imagehosts convert .bmp into .jpeg. Use .gif or .png |

| all that dithering isn't really serving a purpose here, just creating noise/static. dither sparsely. anatomy on the arms looks a little stiff, especially the unarmed hand. face seems a bit large as well. |

The head as well, or just the face? I'm really not pleased with the face at the moment, but I can't quite figure out how to fix it. Thank you for the advice I will thin out the dithering and do something else

just the face also, the torso as well as the arms feels a bit stiff, especially compared to the more dynamic legs. might be good to bend his elbows add a little arch to his posture. |

Yeah I am working on doing that atm, I suck at arms huahuahua. I kind of wanted his eyes out of the way or shadowed over but it ended up giving him a derp face. Thank you for the help there. I'm just fiddling with his arms and torso now.. I'll post when I edit it a bit more.
Not all that much more happy with this one... I pretty much had to redraw his entire upper body. but he still looks unimpressive and stiff |
