Check out my base

I am using it to maybe make something like Narutor Ultimate Fighting Ninja of the 7 stared final bankai of the pirate king of games.

Well, maybe not. But maybe I am making a game, and drawing is such a pain in the ass, and I don't like it, no sir I don't.

The running left/right animation looks derpy, but I can't be bothered to spend anymore time trying to make it look decent. But I'm reasonably satisfied with the forwards/backwards running animation.
It also has a fighting stance, but I'm not animating that because I'm just not.
