What do you think

I think a bigger head would make it look really great. Keep up the good work!

Made head bigger also improved trunk

Hey, ilovescratchcie! Wanted to give you some feedback on your sprites here.

I'll start off by saying that he doesn't look much like an elephant and takes more after a rat in the face. This is due to the trunk not having much form and the ears being pretty unreadable. Try giving the trunk a more curved shape. Reference the official model more closely and key in on the shapes that are present and think about how you can convey that in a 2D space. The hat is also blending in with the head, which I'm fairly certain it's not supposed to do. Tongue

I'd also suggest revisiting your linework on the body as it looks a little blocky. Feel free to make the body even chubbier but smooth out those edges a bit.

I think this is a good start! Reply if you have any concerns. : >

Hi ilovescratchie! Big Grin
I have some more feedback if you don't mind! 

Suggestion #1: I think it looks pretty good but the inside of the ear is the same color as the cap 
and the outside (grey) of the ear is too small; it looks like he has no ear and the cap just has a cape behind it. Shocked

Suggestion #1 fix: I would suggest changing the inside of the ear to a different color or generously extending the 
grey part to almost surround the inside of the ear. Cute



Suggestion #2: It looks as if he's missing a second ear as according to the ear that is facing the camera it should 
stick out over his hat. Shocked

Suggestion #2 fix: Just add a few pixels of the ear on the left. Tongue



I've made a rough example of what the sprite would look like with the changes (you do not need to do these). Embarassed
(Example 1 is with the different ear color, Example 2 is with the extended outside of the ear.)
