Voted for Siegvar, Alectric and Chishio.
Chishio's for being just damn crazy - who makes puppets these days? He's a criminal mastermind.
Siegvar - You went against all the favourites. You sprited armour and not weapons!? WTFHAX. Good detailed armour, so you got the mark.
Alectric - That is one crazy a** animation and weapon. It has the Alectric quality mark written all over it which only you could have come up with.
Kay - I honestly forgot yours before I clicked the button. The sword is such an awesomely amazingly uber sword. However it had no real craziness to it in itself.
And for the sake of it: The Marcellus sprite. OH MY GOD I ALMOST CAME IN MY PANTS. That is the best sprite I have ever seen you produce and cannot really say anything but amazing man.
One day, I shall become, TUTORIAL-MAN: Superhero of writing overly long, overly annoying tutorials which most people probably won't read, but will give it a stab at the first 5 lines!

voted for chishio, who ninja'd me and anyway did a more interesting design of the concept than I had in mind.
"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.
