Come to think of it, I've been sitting on this for a bit, didn't know why i didn't upload sooner lol
But anyway, I actually have done a bit with Bardock. Contained in the spoiler due to chunkiness
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

An idle animation, with feedback from various members from the HDBZ Discord (thank you all, you honestly helped improve it by a lot)

A small portrait. I didn't bother uploading this because it's small and honestly not that hard to make nor hugely important, but of course C&C is more than welcome

Once more, i can't stress how valuable the input has been in the Discord, its helped me improve greatly, and has more so improved this by a LOT. Its of course a portrait for the Character Select Screen, first time in ages drawing a sprite this big

The CS'd pallete. The image itself is older and inferior, but the pallete is still the exact same even now, and honestly happy with it as it is. If anyone wants to make a pallete for it feel free to

Also the actual default pallete because why not

But quick question, could someone help me with Bardocks height? I keep looking and its incredibly inconsistent. Some places list him as being exactly Gokus height, others have him at anywhere to 5'11 to 6'1. What do you all think i should do regarding that?

The animation is good, but I would like to suggests some upper torso movement.

If you make it move a bit it would help him look like he is breathing. You could either have it grow and shrink a few pixels like Cyclops, or just slide it up a bit on the bounce of his animation.

I don't get why the armour pads on his waist move like that. Shouldn't they be stiff? But even if you want them to move like that they look jitter-ish.
The body movement is minimal yet the hair moves too much.
There may be more like the anatomy of his upper body looking weird...

I see it now.

His stance could be a lot different too, basing your sprites on/referencing Goku's isn't the best.

Take a look at Bardock's stance on Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Maybe that could inspire you more.

Everytime I see this big portrait:

I think on this:

Lol XD Oh god
Also I was about to say: Use the character poses from other DBZ games if the one you made isn't too good.

As for the Idle I actually really like it, but maybe if it was slowed down just a tad bit then it wouldn't look so jitter-ish. Great animation & sprites, wish I was on that level.

RUN WIP 01

No arms yet, and the feet blur is from some Shonen Jump sprite of her's.
I really just wanted to show off the hair movement, before I put the arm over it.

Any suggestions? Are the feet blur too big? Character too tall for a run?

Make her more hunched down, that should solve the height problem (although I didn't think she was too tall to begin with).
The hair movement is good, the wings on the hat might need a touch-up but I guess they're still a wip.
The size of the feet blur is good too.

as I do not like z2 proportions, you get a "like" from me lol. *imagines the whole z2 cast with such proportions*

I would advice you to try some dbs characters but obviously its not your cup of tea.

Looks fine but it has the same issue I had pointed out before. Legs are massive for the torso.

If you count them up you got like five heads in those legs and 2 heads for the torso.
Gohan head also seems smaller than gokus?

Still want to have an idea on who to do? cuz someone like cell in that "custom" z2 style would be dope imo.

The shading and detail looks great. The proportions are probably closer to Extreme Butoden though.

actually the proportions were mostly based off from tenshinhan and yamcha, wasn't really fond of the big heads, but I'll see what I can do.

One thing for sure I'd say that the Goku does look like a future version of Balthazar's Z2 style if he were to take it up that high (Of course I have no problem with the Z2 style n_n),
And also looking at Android 18 I feel like I should start over or edit my OC (I had no idea of what a basic female character in the Z2 style would look like at the time 'X( so I was influenced by Smurfyeah's Chi-Chi Z2). btw I checked out your tumblr and I like how well your Yamcha Z2 is coming along.

These sprites look nice, but I like true Z2 proportions.
The bigger heads help to show the character's expressions easier.

If these characters are this big, then Piccolo, Majin Buu, and Tein would have to be even bigger to be in proper scale.
