A Hero of Sorts And Sprites

I don't really know what kind of character I was intending to make, but this is the result. It reminds me of a cross between Raiden from Metal Gear Solid and Samus from Metroid.

Made using Piskel.

Nice! Good to see you make something for Pixel Day and it's even better when it's animated!

My constructive critique is that the body anatomy kinda looks a bit awkward especially the characters right arm. The main body is kind of big compared to it's legs. There are lack of shadows on this character without a proper light source. I suggest that you learn some basic anatomy and adding shadows depending what light source it spawned.

At least you put some effort on this and the end result was awesome thanks to being a gif art. Hope my suggestion helps and happy belated Pixel Day to you too. :)

Plasmarift responds:

I appreciate the feedback a bunch! I hadn't even considered adding shadows when I made it and I still need to get beyond my limitation when it comes to 2D art (my characters usually come across as flat). I don't get too many comments on my art so, again, I really appreciate this.
