Some advice: MS Paint is bad for pixel art. My suggestion, you should use GraphicsGale. It's a free art program designed specifically for pixel things.
Why do I love all your suggestions dragonith!? Anyways, good work on the art (as always)....and I want this in the game (as always )
The armor, sword and paint job all remind me of Phantoms from Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass. Though i think they should be a little taller in your scale of sprites. The main picture seems very tall and opposing, but the sprites just make it look a little smushed to fit with the human size. This is space my friend, you should be given a little wiggle room for different species. especially ones from another galaxy.
Yeah, I can see what you're getting at. Thing being, this race is one of the more 'humanoid' of my race suggestions, being such I wanted to make them as close to the initial human sprite as possible. Having a generally similar shape to the human's body means armor 'should' be easier to implement for them as well. Looking at the two other official races (Apes and Avians), you can see what I was trying to achieve. I even ran into a little size error while making them earlier, so I upped the height a few pixels. Lolwat.
I found it well I was passing time waiting for you to comment on the other posts, and I had to post this.
Pretty much, pixel art can be the easiest to make time-wise, but can be the hardest to make design-wise, it all depends.
Since they are Medieval based, do they have archers? if they do could you add a sprite for a archer type guy? maybe even a king/queen?
