@luigi - thanks! the one time I forget that! *derp*
@recolorme - common practice, I've got into the habit of making the high and low frames first, THEN making the mid frames.

I derped the frame order a little and I didnt like the sharpness of the leg shading, it made the legs look flat. also I made more space for the mid-frames.

I'll be returning to the above sheet soon I'm still cleaning the engine up so I can make the game run smoother and be able to see the sprites in action easier.
here is a random group of designs with a terrible pallet.

I felt guilty with the post above being so crappy, so here is pacman alternative.

Pacman's shading can use some work, but I LOVE the ghosts

its meant to be an alternative pacman, he doesn't really need rounding out for my own take on the character, if it helps at all hes been laying off the cherries.

up down left right done, crits on this would be greatly appreciated, I'm planning on doing a line of characters in such a style so I can experiment with character design while my graphics tablet is dead.

On the side view, her mouth shouldn't go straight down. It should slant sort of, seeing as her face is round.

the shading underneath the uppermost pixel makes it look like you didn't change anything. So yeah, it's too subtle.

That's looks a lot better.
It's probably just me, but the nearly all warm-colored pallet that you're using a lot bothers me a bit.. like I said, probably just me.

well the pacman and ghosts thing is meant to be cheery, as is the Mary character (the sheets above) and my avatar too (who is supposed to be linked to fire)
but if I have the same issue with the blue shirt character, I'd greatly appreciate some advise as that character is meant to be cold and grim.
EDIT
just something I did for wolv21 on twitch.
I messed up the text though :/
