This time the topic is Soldiers
Rules: Draw a sprite of a soldier. This soldier can be from the middle ages, from the future, or the present, alien, monster. You can include some sort of vehicle or plane in which the soldier fights his battles, like a tank, if you wish.
In short, any soldier of any race of any time.
Colours: 64
Resolution: 200x200 (if you want to add a tank or something of that nature)
What I'm looking for: Meanness, Originality, An appealing sprite,usable in a game (but not that important, since almost anything is usable in a game)
I hope you guys like the topic and that atleast one person enters.
here is a soldier sprite I did last week for fun. Just an example.

It was just a matter of time when Johnson had to do his military service. And now look what it did to him! He even turned green.

Nice idea, I'll see what I can come up with!
157x134 at 3x and with 13 colours

I tried to get all those aspects in: originality (no reference - original designs), meanness and appeal (hopefully the girl contributes this ;D)Ã, :P
Oh, and i took soldier(s) literally ;)

not for a first place but it's a try
note:we will work on him for a little bit and after that we will put him in our game :P

I decided to try a different style. Its supposled to be one of those evil nameless grunts from spy movies.
And my simple MSPaint soldier:

I went for a very very small resolution.Ã, I think I accomplished meanness (or at least cold hatred), originality, and it's definately usable in a game, I mean, it's built for 320x200.Ã, Hope it doesn't suck!

I knew i'd find a use for my sprite
Between Haddas and buloght, it seems the rest of us are done for....
I'd have to agree with you there.
(http://www.gwebspace.de/hassu-irc/andere/soldier.png)
Well, it isn't a buloght or a Haddas, but it's a ... a ... some kind of soldier, maybe. One of those pretty ugly ... unnatural and fat magician soldiers. Yeah, that's it.
But it's my first 100% freehand sprite. What else did you await? ;)
*edit: This guy really is humiliating. I'll print him on A3, hang him in the WC, and everytime I'll go to toilet, I say: "I will become a famous pixel artist." And then my alarm clock rings and I have to go to work.
cheers
