Whoa, I thought I had replied to this already
No problem, glad to know you're considering my suggestions. Another thing I'd like to suggest, though, is since you aren't following Megaman style anymore (as seen on the girl's eyes and sprite size), how about ditching it altogether? Megaman sprites have a reason to be like that due to hardware limitations, so they needed to compromise quality with readability.
In your case though, this is uneeded, as the PC supports many more colors and sprite sizes, which could improve your character. Not to say that staying with Megaman style is kind of a bad move now because it's overused by people who makes bad edits and recolors (same with Sonic). Keeping a sprite style only because it is 'retro-looking' and 'easier to imitate' really hinders your potential imo.
I'll make a sprite edit when I'm home.
