The problem you've got is that you're not taking care in where you're placing pixels. The thing about spriting is that it's like any other form of artwork, in that you're working with very limited space. Because of this, you can't just draw lines and be done with it. Adding or removing just one pixel can make the difference between good work and bad. What you've got is a good start, but incomplete. You now need to go over it again and shift around individual pixels to smooth it out. Take the front most arm, for example. It has an awkward lump in it, because one side bulges out, and then moves back in, and the other stays flat - you have no consistency. Try making the arm get uniformly wider, or at least stay the same width.
Essentially, try and make things smooth. At the moment, you have lines which can be called "sketchy". This means they have been more or less haphazardly applied (i.e. sketched) rather than placed with care. This is fine to start with, but smooth them out afterwards!
