As you might have noticed 'A painter's journey' (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=22193.0) by Juliuz has been in production for some time now. I signed up to do the sprites ages ago and I've finally reached a stage to present them to this community and get some C&C on it.
This is Bob. He works in a factory which produces paint and he is the main character:

I'm still working on the back view...
This is Bob's boss:

This little fellow here plays an important part in the story, but I don't want to give away too much:

What do you think?
I like them very much. One quick note though. No shadows on the clothes? All faces are so worked on, but the clothes should really be "deepened", with some shadows. From my non-exestant experience insprites, it shouldn't be too difficult.
Thanks for your quick comment.
The clothes still lack detail and shadow as I'm still working on the animations and I find it easier to add these stuff after the animations are finished rather than to animate very detailed sprites with shadows and everything already in place. They will be added later though...
Ok. Then.
The hero, reminds me of me. A little belly and big nose! hehe
The boss's legs R too short compared with the hands and body. Maybe you can add some paint spots on Bob's clothes. Great sprites. ;D

Yeah! Cause you cant have deformed people in a point and click game! Thats just wrong!! >:(
No, seriously. I love the sprites! Love the blob. Know what its for, but not giving anything away :P
Thanks for all the feedback so far. Please keep it coming.
Here is an animation I did:

As usual, c&c and paint-overs welcome
to the anim. I would do this:
-Shorten the steps, that looks kind of painful..
-add some depth with shadowing, I doubt the leg behind would be the same level of darkness the whole time
well, nothing more :) but think of it
Nice characters, I like Bob and the little alien (it's an alien, isn't it?) very much... In the animation I would put some more frames. I've noticed that in the second picture the Bob look fatter than in the animation.
