Those sprites use way too many colours! You should try to increase the contrast between shades and try to merge similar colours togther. That way animations will be easier to make, too.
The mugshot has a pig snout while the sprite's nose looks rather pointy (nose-dots are usually used for pointy noses).
Thank you for the advice; you see I'm still rather new at making custom sprites so I'm bound to mess up every now and then. As for the colors, how many should I use at best? 16-bit perhaps?
