Hello there! Just a little disclaimer, I'm fairly new to pixel art and animation. Anyway, I've been working on some animations the past few days for a game I'm creating. The one where he is facing the bottom is decent, I think. However, the right-side one isn't looking that great yet. Any suggestions?

(These are scaled 10x)

The problem with the front view is that there's no shading on the limbs when they swing backwards. The farther-away limbs on each frame should be darker; look at the farther-away leg on the side-view sprite to get an idea of what I mean.
