The art looks good but the animation needs fix up, and I know whats wrong with it if you focus on the right knee I noticed you made the leg shorter when she's putting pressure on the that leg, infact that explains it all right there, basically what you need to do is make the heel on the right leg lower more when pressure is applied on that leg, and it will keep the same length of the leg, it will start to look more natural.
Also remember this which you have a problem with too is the knee cap moves when your legs move, so when bending knee the knee cap goes up a little bit, and when straightening out the knee the knee cap moves down a little.

The hair needs to move a bit

But other than that, it's great.

Still just testing out motions~ I'm gonna mess with the knees a bit more, especially in the alternate bounce, and then I'm gonna start animating the clothing and hair.

fsfgsdhfasj that's good
you should do sprite tutorials
how do you sprite so good

this is bullshit because most of the time the easiest way to explain something is through edits of the sprite being worked on

people who refuse to allow others to edit their work to show flaws are usually the people who never improve because they're so insistent that IT'S MY WORK AND YOU CAN'T TOUCH IT >:cccccccc

anyways getting back on topic

the animation looks really stiff, not sure if it's been mentioned yet, or if that's still a WIP because i just skimmed the topic but her tits really shouldn't be staying perfectly still like they are unless she's got some sort of magical sports bra that stops all movement whatsoever

the dress

thing and her hair should be moving a bit too

---

ALSO

her knees

what in the fuck is going on there i dont even

Yah, like I said, this isn't anywhere close to being final. It's just motion testing. Thanks for the crits and the comments anyway, I'll take them into consideration when I start everything else.

Dude your so right I thought about that too, I know a guy would make the Boobs animate but I think this is a girl that is animating this sprite I don't know if she wants that lol.
Besides she mentioned that the recent sprite is just to show what she basically gonna do with it so its not finished yet.

It's better not to touch it if you don't know how they will react, but I think you're right. To tell you the truth, I edit the sprite sometimes (I always ask them first though, to avoid confusion and shit. I'm such a cautious person...) and I find it more helpful than writing a bunch of letters in a single post...

Thanks for pointing that out, 1up.

So just because Hinako's a girl, she wouldn't want to maker the sprite's boobs bounce? C'mon. The gravity is the same for every person, including girls. Making the boobs not bounce would make the animation look wrong. Just pointing out...

EDIT: Also boobs are hard to animate.

Gorsal have you ever been to pixelation? People edit other's sprites without permission all the time, some of the greatest pixel artist have gotten that good by people editing their work showing them better techniques and tips, it's perfectly fine to edit one's work without permission, unless they say so in the first post, if they react, well it's their fault for not accepting help. People are using their time and effort HELPING YOU to get better. Anyway some of us do ask anyway so I don't see the problem here.

balance on the rest of them is fine this one just looked kind of weird


also

what's up with their knees, you never really answered that question. they all look like they have giant tumors on top of their kneecaps

Hinako's style choice perhaps?

yeah, i wouldn't really be that put off by it if it was pulled off well, but it looks really weird as is right now, i would just make them have normal sized knees no matter how inspired you want them to look by that one style that you mentioned earlier in the topic

No. That may be why I didn't know. I need to be less cautious, then... It gets over my actions sometimes, and I simply can't do anything...

Also I agree with 1up. His edit looks nice, too.

This really needs to be read, and thus I am quoting it. Unless you focus on the knee you never notice it but once you do, yeah it's bad...

please tell me that the girl with the scissors can pull the blades apart and dual wield like swords
