Their necks dont quite look right...or am I mistaking it for their jaw? Dunno I think their head is a tad deformed in shape when theyre looking down, but detail and coloring is superb. Keep it up.

They're a lot beefier than the old sprites, I must say, and the shading is decent.

I like them. On the front views, though, it doesn't look like one hand is behind and one is in front. It just looks like (bad analogy coming) one arm was raised upwards to make it look shorter. The hand that's behind should be closer to the body. Do you know what I mean Oookay...

Gotta love them bad analogies.

I can't really comment until you give me a x2 (ok,so I'm lazy and won't open it in paint or something. so sue me). But from this perspective they look good.

Personally, I'd extend the chin down a pixel or two. As it is the head looks really short. For the most part they're quite good though.

Excuse me, but I couldnt stop myself from admiring the ninja looking guy. The graphics are cool! I think you did a great job...way better than what pixelation I could only dream in the night of creating.

Actually, one thing, Skell, that's kinda hard to explain, Kou's technically not a ninja. It's a long story Oookay...

Ah, the beefy look. It isnt difficult to accidentally do, and its extremely easy to duplicate if that is the style you want. Well, perhaps they wore extra layers today. Tis a bit nippy out... Or extra armor. A lot suffer from bulky art when pixelating. That was kinda like the old final fantasy sprites. Good work though... Happy

I think the sprites definitely look better in this version. I really like the sprites... but eh, I think, just like Iblis said, you need to extend the chin down by a pixel. Good job.

Friend,

Those are nearly perfect.

The way you do the heads though is a bit odd... maybe at that scale you shouldn't use a "parting of hair" effect... it makes their heads look heart shaped.
