While you've done a great job explaining the anatomy part (which I've never seen that detailed, thumbs up), giving the reader a defined amount of pixels he has to go left/right/up/down won't help him too much. Some numbers to give him a general impression are very useful (preventing him from doing some weird-proportioned stuff), but you shouldn't tell him how he exactly has to do the feet or whatever. It will make the tutorial more complicated, while following those instructions will lead to the exact same sprite. Just saying how thick waist/head/upper body and how long legs/head/body/arms are should be sufficient.
However, that's just something you could leave out to make it easier.

Okay, thanks for the input, I'm already making a 'cleaner' and 'neater' guide, I'll bear that in mind and will incorperate it into the new guide. Thanks for the input Reaper. Making the new guide slightly more Ctrl + f friendly as Marshall had suggested.

Already one step ahead of you :P
