When he says that - he means in literal sense 'stop outshining us man'. xD
Nicely done picture, agreed with apoc, Mikey suddenly became slightly older lol There's just someone I'm trying to catch up to. I've still got a long way to go.

and yeah he does look a bit older but who cares...nicely done
Go ahead. face pics don't take too much effort and they're fun to draw.
"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.

God forbid the day that I find out Siegvar's trying to catch up to or equal someone. The other person must have the world in the palm of their hands... any clues to who that person is? :P

the whole spriting looks awesome
it seems like it'll be a great char
the hair of the face pic is really good but the face compared to the original faces is a bit hard shaded and the lines especially the mouse are a bit bold.

Ahh he looks sad, sad. Well can you make him angry or at least some other expression to show that he is a fighter.

Hmmm... Looks kinda nice, but his jaw in the sprite is rounder. Not like in the face the jaw is kinda to long(?) and it would look better if his the face would be closer.
IMO
