Collection of sprites

Hey everyone, I figured I'd post some sprites here to see if I could get some feedback and critique perhaps. The stuff I'll post is organised from most recent to oldest.







I've mostly been trying to refine the 'basic' techniques of spriting, but as of late I kinda feel as if I've lost direction on what to work on, so maybe you guys can help me out with that. Either way, thanks for looking. Have a good day and see you around!
