Redesign for the Gallowglass. @Endru1241, please note that i have changed it's size to 32x32. The in-game one i suppose has 32x64.

Comparison of the current and new one.
Current: New:

The head looks more like a hood than a helmet, also the green skirt is too bright and big, make it shorter and expose more legs so his legs will actually look thick and not the chicken legs it looks right now

The old one may look simple but atleast it looks perfectly proportionate and realistic, ur one still needs work

Its the problem i also used to face wen i tried pixel arts, i tried to add too many details in a tiny canvas but wen i zoom out later, nothing looks clear and it looks very awkward (i m talking about my experience, urs one can still b fixed without omitting too many details after some experimentation)

Hmm, i guess it won't pass that easily. I'll do some edits later.

Just in case it isn't enough, i've increased the length of the legs more.

Legs are good, outline the skirt, i still dont like skirt color, its too bright compared to rest, like he is carrying a light bulb between his legs.... Make it a darker green shade and it shoukd b fine. Also that elongated part on right leg, i dont know wat it means, if its leather padding then there should also b something on left leg, otherwise remove it

And finally the head, remove that mask like region and give a clean face, or bearded like the old one, infact beard kind of makes it look more intimidating, also if possible make the helmet slightly larger, right now it is still giving the assassin feel instead of a fearsome man with a giant axe about to mow everybody onto the ground

Sure

It is a backup sword.

Edited.

@godOfKings

I guess a beard and a larger head made it look more intimidating

I think u can remove the backup sword, or make scabbard more lighter brown so that it is identifiable and not just looks like a black shadow on top of leg

Only thing remaining i think is the shoe, it could b like a boot covering about 2 pixels above the back of foot

Finally u understand

U are really picky

But i guess it would make it look nicer. I'll edit it later.

Well since it was almost done i thought of giving it a few finishing touch but urs is good too (i made the changes according to wat i suggested b4 and didnt see ur new image)

It does look better i guess. Thanks for the help

Edited more

But i still love the current one more.

Do the halberd look like a flag to everyone or is it just me?

Current one looks ugly and weird for me. I'd prefer it to be changed.

I don't see it. And don't make this even messier @Hyuhjhih. As i feel it is fine now.

And now that you pointed it out, i'm pretty sure everybody would look at it as you said. I edited it before hand.

How about this?

A larger halberd

Made the helmet a lil rounder though.

I made it look like a SPARTH axe. As said so in the description.

Alas, i'll have to make it bigger. The previous one was good enough until you pointed out that silly thing.

edit.
