Mod Warhammer Nation: Northern Greenskins

I'm posting a basically finished sprite that is subject to change depending on comments.

As before, any comments, criticisms and suggestions are welcome.

I finally will make a comment : I think you could make your weapons look more brutal and orcish, to make yourself an idea, you could look at the sprites of the black moon mod (you'll find it in the 11 nations mod).

I've had the same thought, but do you have any concrete suggestions? The amount of pixels I have to work with is very limited, and I have trouble fitting details like that in. Keep in mind, this is my first foray into the field of pixel art.

I am nothing like a pixel artist. I am not even a wannabee.
I am to the zero point of pixel talent. I thought maybe you, by looking to another mod, could have an idea of how did he managed to have is weapons look that way with two pixel. Anyway, I will play your mod EVEN if your weapons aren't perfectly brutal and orcish, but it's because I 'm someone who is really kind and gentle, or maybe I'm lazy, or untalented.
Sorry I couldn't help you more with graphics, you should ask Sombre, He seems to have a huge know how. (and pray he has some time for you).
By the way , if the relatively simple programmation bores you, I can be of some help, I don't like to be utterly useless.

I think Okin is probably a better sprite artist than me and he uses GIMP, so the help I can give him graphically is seriously limited. He does talk to me on IRC though, in the dom3 channel.

I apologize if anyone is hurt in anyway. I never heard of okiN before, you've already done a lot of impressive pixel work, so I thought that if anyone could help him, it would be you.I'm not trying to rate pixel drawers in anyway, as I think that to be rated by someone who really is not good at what you're doing can be 'quite' frustrating.
By the way, I'm happy to know modders help each other.Are they some good info on this channel, or is it private ? If it is not, I would gladly try to learn and improve myself.
Maybe that after having learned, I will ask less stupid questions.
