Character sprite concepts

[Memento]

Is the ice stage minion a final version?

Because if you think his design is good enough, we can start spriting him.

I recently sent a mail to you guys (at least to Mono and Arcane) that I wouldn't be doing any sprites anymore, mainly because I'm not very good or quick when it comes to spriting. However, because the spriting progress is very slow at the moment, I decided to give it a try anyway. The design for the ice minion is very basic and I think I can handle this. So I can do some spriting as well when I'm not making any data, as is the case now
I don't like spriting much, but I want to speed up the progress a bit lol ^^ Feeling way too motivated to sit here and do nothing for the mod

Please tell me if you think my shading skills are good enough and if I should go on with this minion or not. If you think I shouldn't be doing it, I can understand, as I'm not even near the same level as Mono and Arcane.
I didn't make the standing sprite, so please comment on the walking sprites.





Edit: I made the arm that is going behind the character a little bit lighter in the last walking pic, but haven't edited this in the pic yet ^
