Just a heads-up: we know that you want to make something detailed and not cartoonish when making this sprite. However we all know very well that if you insert many shades in a small cluster, you are not giving it detail, you are doing the opposite of it. You are blurring it.
As a tip, never use black or any dark color as background. It may make your perception of shades warped (and it did, as seen here)

Megaman looks fine with white BG still, but Jason has became really dark. It's usually good to use a neutral color, such as a faint hue-shifted gray, as BG.
The farthest leg looks abnormally thin and out of proportion even considering the perspective, and honestly his breastplate does not look detailed, but rather pillowshaded. It is failing in giving depth, and kinda looks like a boob because of it (especially in the lower sprite; the upper sprite shows it but he has that weird green belt stuff? I don't know because its clusters are poorly defined).
