Bla bla's sprites

[The Lost Global Mod]

I myself never really learnt from explanations, so I hope you don't mind:



I took your sprite as base and drew over it.
Your biggest problem is, that you don't give yourself enough space for certain body parts. such as feet and the head. Both feel kinda squeezed. The end of your hair is where the head should end. Which means at least 3-4 pixels additional to that is still hair.
Another thing, you leave out additional shading, clothing specific such as here the coat.
I am not good at effects, so yeah I can't help you out with that.
Another thing is that you are not giving enough shadow for some parts. Like the arms, which make them look thick. just look at my (drawn) right arm and yours. I hope you see the difference.

Hope i didn't hurt your pride or anything, good luck!

P.s: i just realized how much that sprite of mine sucks as well. D:
