Description
Even though this was a collaborative effort, still probably did more than 50% of the work. If only because we can't both be working on it at the same time.
So what do you guys think? Yes? No? Maybe?
I think Fox's eyes look too angry, personally.
Oh, and and

Thanks.
...just "not bad", though? Any suggestions for improvement, then?

Fox's fur looks a bit too yellow in my opinion. His eyes do seem a little too angry, as you said before. I would suggest getting rid of the shadow underneath his feet too - if not that then put a shadow underneath Crystal's feet.

Hmm. I see.
I suppose Fox's fur color is a bit too far on the yellow side of orange; I was using Tails' sprites, so I stuck with his color pallet. Same thing with the shadows; that's how they were in Chrono Trigger and that's how I left them.
I probably should change them, though. This is a WIP, after all...
The eyes, however, were a problem - everything we did to them looked wrong. Make them narrower horizontally? nope. Make them taller? nope. Make them "rounder"? nope. Nothing worked...
Any help you can give us would be most appreciated.

I'm not sure. You'd think that rounder would definitely help. Could it be his eyebrows that make it like that? Maybe if you moved the white parts above his eyes into more of an arch than a slant then he would look friendlier.

Hmmmmmmm...
...well...it helps...
I don't know - I'll have to consult with Fuzzbucket on this.
Thanks for the feedback, though. We don't get good constructive criticism very often.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Most of the comments on my stuff are all "cool" or "awesome" or "sweet". It gets pretty lame.

Thanks. Glad to see people approve.
Although, between ~MidnightReinor and myself, this project has sort of been delayed indefinitely...

That's too bad...hopefully you two can find a chance to work on it someday.

Yeah, there seems to be a distinct lack of Starfox sprites out there in the world...
but really, whadaya think? Yes? No? Maybe?
Should I give Fox his blaster or put Krystal in her Assault armor?
Nobody's giving me feedback!

First off for Kyrstal, do both costume versions, Both of the tribal and of the assault armor.
For Fox, heck yeah give him is blaster, but make it as a separate attachable sprite. (I may not be an artist, but I've studied game programming

Technically sprite art isn't game programming per say, but yes, I could create his blaster separately.
It's giving him the poses to hold it - that's the hard part.
Seriously, you would not believe how much editing it took just to make these four. The color fade on Krystal's fur, her tiara and arm/leg bangles, the subtle differences between Fox's 64 style (left) and his Assault form (right)... I even checked his eye color - they changed somewhere between games!
Of course, that's not going to stop me from trying to make more... that is, as soon as I get Fuzzbucket back on board; she keeps jumping between projects...

trust me I know how annoying spriting can be. The little bit I've messed around with was long. It took me over 150 hours for the whole Haloween contest if not more. I didn't time the work I did, but it was like 3 months of solid work every day at least 5 to 10 hours a day. Even at that, the sprites I've been releasing needs a lot of work still.

(In Reginold Wulfric von Fuzzbucket's voice)
BUT I DID DO ALL THE WORK!!!!!!
AND I DEFINITELY DID MORE THAN 50%!!! Yes, I am Mr. Fuzzbucket. And I told you already, the angry eyes don't matter! If I do Wolf's sprite I'll make him look different!
First comment!
