The Pixels Of Joxon

[recme]

something like this, more or less. pay attention to the curves and placement of the original sprite, since that one was dynamic. if youre scarred to copy off of it... then dont be. its not that bad of a reference tbh. one can suggest to even look at the smash bros version if that works.

also, imo, i think you should tone it down with the colors. on a sprite that small, it gets to the point where all the colors make the sprite hard to read.
