Critic my beachdude

[arj0n]

This is my very first attempt to draw a person, to draw anything actually.

Original size [45x100]:


400x [180x400]
I just resized it 400% so it's a bit blurry, don't know how to do it the right way...


Comments and ideas please...
I think his left leg and feet are somehow wrong and his right hand is a bit to big...

First of all id say its a pretty good attempt for a first sprite.  For the most part what you said is true; the right hand is a little odd and the legs are a little awkward.

Since it looks like you are using a 3/4 view, you would need to change the legs as they look like they are from a side on angle.I did a quick edit to show you what I mean:



4x


I also moved the left arm a couple of pixels left and the shoulder up a little to make him seem a little bulkier

On the whole though, I like the sprite.  He certainly looks the part of a surfer dude.  Keep up the good work

Thanx Tier
The upper body part is better now [shoulder & arm] and the foot is also better this way.
I'm not sure but I feel something is still not yet right with the legs.
