Hey, though i'd show you guys some of the creations i have going on from time to time.
I will soon be working on my first monster sprite, was doing that before but it turned out badly, i will start over with a side frame instead.
Until i begin working on that, here's a look at Benjamin front and side frames, they are pretty much final.

Brownie W.I.P

Looks good. Wasn't his armor blue though?

[SpritingNomad]

Went more blue, you can actually see the belt color more now.
Nevr thought of it much until you mentioned it, i wanted that blue ball to show more so i went with a purple instead, but you can see it just fine with a darker blue.

Thanks a lot 

[Archem]

That looks a lot more like pink and a lot less like purple, but I'm not complaining.

[SpritingNomad]

Well okay, actually went with a better purple, with a hint of blue 

[Archem]

Well that looks lovely.

[SpritingNomad]

Glad you like the look, i've since added more detail to the hair after working on the back of the head, also crammed in more detail by adding the Tassets ( i believe that's the name) to each side.

I also have front and sides for the other characters created i will upload a front frame for them too, soon.

The first monster i began working on was a Brownie goblin, for a basic rmxp battle system, but later decided to work on a side view look.
I began working on this one last night, and i need some opinions on this monster so far.
The little things i see right now are that balled up fist which i will make a bit bigger (needs pinkie), because i like the idea of them having big hands, and that pinkie finger on the raised hand will be curved next time you see him.

There might be something else with proportions, but i can't tell yet.
Please let me know if you see something odd, i'd like to fix everything before i go into more colors and details, thanks.

e: Finding some things here, only adding this so no one wastes their time when its already been fixed ^^
Already started adding color and shade, noticed a few little things along the way like the slightly bigger heel on the leg moving forward, got rid of extra pixel line on upper back too.
Shortened arm (not forearm) swinging back a bit.

I like the monster overall but I'm not so sure on the raised arm. It looks like he's put his hand up to ask something rather than to strike someone.  It needs to be more bent, maybe.

[SpritingNomad]

I think I see what you mean, I will work on this right away.

Thanks a lot bud.

[Archem]

If it's not too late for input, I would suggest moving the forearm forward and down a bit, making it into more of a striking pose than a raised-arm pose.

[SpritingNomad]

Not too late Archem, i read that before i began editing the arm.
I've updated the image with the newest look, aside from the arm and hand (and other stuff) i've also made the nose bigger.

More work to be done on it still, but mainly shading and possibly adding something to that hat.

My thanks again guys, you're advice saved me a lot time

Hat has been changed, now wears a dented metal helmet with a red angry face painted on the front.
