(reason should be my laziness)
speaking of capoeira, it reminds me the most of Eddie from the Tekken series. he moves around a lot, being evasive and often hit me after avoiding my attacks. but im not sure if the capoeira theme would be good in lf2, as capoeira uses a lot of low-lying ground based moves(lying down and ducking) and involved moving a lot. Yes, capoeira fighting in LF2 will be difficult but not impossible as there are little to no existing references for such movements in game. Still, trying to sprite all basic actions would really be the best practice to learn along the way you can get. And if you can keep that rage under control your perfectionism will help you great lengths. It's common to notice flaws and redo things.
Cannot really comment on the new sprite other than asking: what is that thing from your avatar?

she is Taokaka from Blazblue (name is Tao only, but she is from the Kaka Clan, so its something like a last name)
she was one of the fastest character in blazblue, agile, cute, has great aerial combos, active, cute, has a innocent, pure, but shockingly stupid personality, and cute. she fights with her retractable claw-shaped-blades in her long cat-paw-patterned sleeves.
here is an image of her standing stance(in blazblue) from google

I do!
I'd much prefer Rachel or Makoto though...
"I may devour the five continents, and swallow the three seas, but a body with neither wings, nor hands, nor feet, is powerless against the sky."
My stuff:
| sprites | frozen |
1) DO NOT PM ME
2) Go read up on anatomy and proportions online. (google is your best friend)
3) Go read up on pencil sketching-shading.
4) Practice by making FULL character sheets. (Refer to bases and references if you have to, occasionally try doing things from scratch. You have to mix both methods; bases and without.)
5) DO NOT be an arrogant, self-righteous prick when people try to give useful critiques, and ignore the ones who are flaming idiots. (Flaming them back makes you one of them.)
6) Repeat steps 2 to 5 until you're happy, or you think you're good, then start sharing your knowledge with your fellow spriters.
7) Showcase your sprites. At first, do not be discouraged when you don't get any critiques, or lousy/generic critiques. Continue practicing and showcasing your work. With more sprites, it will be clearer what your strengths and weaknesses are, and people may be better able to give you better critique.
Lastly, if you think saying all this makes me an arrogant, self-righteous prick who is too selfish to share his knowledge...
Then I say you cannot recognise wisdom when I've just slapped you in the face with it. (Also, those steps are the same steps I used to get to where I am, I don't know any way else to truly learn.)
Unless you think its worth my time, go F*** yourselves. I'm not going to bother to even reply to PMs like "can you help me make this character?" anymore.

makoto = sexy
rachel = loli
so maybe siegvar has average tastes(likes big bewbs) plus a hint of lolicon 
after 2 days full of naps, marshmallows and movies, i decided to continue spriting
after editing eyes a bit, more skin contrast, somewhat edited fists(used to be balls instead of fists  )
here i have a problem. should i shade the tip of the shoe? 1 or 2 is better?

If that's supposed to be you, I'm gonna laugh my a** off.
To live a life of power, you must have faith that what you believe is right, even if others tell you you're wrong.
The first thing you must do to live a life of power is to find courage. You must reach beyond the boundaries of time itself.
And to do that, all you need is the will to take that first step...
Ask not what others can do for you, but what you can do for others.

I knew Bat was me. I was just curious about the guy "I" am carrying.
