Much like greninja- may I suggest you try thinner calfs? making it look like pants, etc?

Well, Lucario's legs DO look like he's got pants on, but...

The problem I see with Lucario is that his thighs don't seem to move at all. And I agree that the calves could probably do with a pixel or two less width.

The structure of the legs is that the pants are actually irrelevant- he haas knees just below their "sleeves", then a very veryy short shin-and-calf going backwards before the ankle, where the foot starts and goes forward

thhis results in two things-

you really should shave the feet some pixels to make the "pants" more apparent by contrast

and the animation needs to take into account he doesn't have normal human-like legs, which it kinda already does but looks off in terms of the run

I was sick Sick so I couldn't sprite for a while, but I finally got to try to fix the legs.

I made his legs smaller like you said, and also used some shading to separate the the blue parts of his legs to make them look more like how they're supposed to.

I also finished the Ice Climbers sheet for the requester's project but I don't know if he wants me to submit it to The Sprites Resource, I should to talk to him about that.

And now another person requested that I make an Eevee spritesheet, in the same way I did Sylveon.

Wouldn't it make sense to change the background color of Lucario's sheet to something that isn't blue?

PROTIP: When choosing background colors for your sprite sheet's background, try inverting your sprite and choosing some colors from that. You'll get some nice contrast if you do that.

Inverting Lucario's sprite, I got some nice muted golden colors. I think they work quite well.

By the way, fantastic job on these sprites! The smaller legs are a definite improvement and I can't wait for your future sheets. You're shaping up to be one of my favorite Nintendo spriters. Big Grin And have you considered x-posting your stuff over on /r/pixelart? That's another nice place to get some feedback.

'K, I inverted the sprites colors for da background like you said, but softed them a bit because I thought they came out a little too strong.

Also I did Eevee's walk animation at the same time.

Much like Sylveon, I think Eevee would look better if left in quad form.

As for Lucario, his climbing sprite looks too spread out. The legs go out to the side when lifted, and I'm guessing the first frame is him pulling himself up? Shouldn't both legs be on the ladder then?

For some reason I think the Ice Climbers would be even more adorable in this style.

It was the requester that wanted Eevee to be the like the way I did Sylveon, but I did try doing quad Eevee before.

Here's the edit to the climbing like you said, and the first frame is just Lucario turned around, like when Mario enters a door on Super Mario All-Stars.


Also Eevee's Sheet is done Big Grin

Should Eevee's limbs really inflate like that with the P-Balloon?
Also, the legs could be lower on the body in the same sprite.
The animation after the 3rd/air attack looks kind of weird as well. The random head duck looks out of place and the neck fur movement is a little overkill.

Here, let me take a shot at it!

I think this is what Virt is getting at. If you look at Balloon Mario's sprite from Super Mario World, his face and torso inflate but his arms and legs stay the same size. By the way, this new P-balloon sprite fits into your 40x40 hitbox! It should fit in with the other sprites a little better now.
