What if, when he grabbed items, the glass bubble on his mech opened up and he held the items in his hands. Instead of sitting int he seat, he'd stand and lean forward a bit.

Why not just get rid of the glass bubble completely?

We could do that.

I'd be cool if he used some sorta tractor beam or something to collect/use items, but removing the glass bubble would be a great idea =)

Being the coward he is, I hardly think Porky would EVER fight without some sort of protection for himself. In fact, if there was the risk he would get hurt, he would run away very quickly...

So, Cockpit on. Plus, his vehicle looks a lot cooler with it.

Mind explaining to me on how Porky is evil and nice sprites.

Check Wikipedia or any number of Earthbound sites.

I support the tractor beam but not removing the dome. Also for his wins would he do them in or out of his mech?

but what if the user has an item (say, home-run bat) and uses his taser beam or whatever its called. Surely the laser would incinerate the bat?

Its a video game. 'Nuff said.

The tractor beam idea seems good. And it's not like you have to make the whole entire beam visible. Just make a little bit around the exit point and a little bit on the item. Like a highlight.

I fixed the smile on the side-facing sprites and started a forward-facing head. I can't get it to look quite right though...

I'm gobsmacked, these are epic!!!

The only thing I think that you should do is if he leaned forward slightly when his front legs move and he leans backward slightly when his back legs move.

I have an idea for one of his wins. It should be out of his mech. He pats on the Machine and then with the 3rd pat. It shocks Porky and falls out. That'd be worth a few lol's

Also Ton about your Porky what don't you think is right about it. It looks fine to me?

The shading on the mech looks awful cramped, it seems like you're trying to do too much with too little space. Try exaggerating the size of the mech's pieces a bit more, or just make it larger overall. It just feels like he's too big inside the mech, when in the original Mother sprite it actually looks quite roomy.
