Here is a reference picture for you to look at. By judging your work's pose, I think you have been using this from the start.

Here are the things that this sprite is in need of:

Far superior shading.
----your colors are far too similar, especially with the orange and the hair. There needs to be a much higher contrast without it being blinding.
----Her gloves need shading

Anatomically correct limbs.
----as it stands (and I don't mean to sound cruel or harsh) but this Garnet look's like she has no elbows, and has no bones in her arm.
=====this is mostly due to the fact that you did not give her a definable elbow and forearm in her skeleton when spriting her.
+++++++++ I have noticed this problem with some poses of your other sprites as well; so I drew a really quick "Joints" picture to show you what you need to think of when spriting arms, hands, and legs.
(please ignore the crappy quality, I just did it really quickly on my laptop)

The outfit.
-----Her buckles on the side of her jumpsuit have straps, and should be seen in this sprite.
-----Her sleeves are also poofed and cinched just above her elbow with the cuffs being cinched at the wrist; having her sleeves be somewhat "bell-like"

The pose.
-----Her thigh needs to be smoother and slimmer; her legs as a whole need to be a little bit thinner.
-----Her other leg needs to be seen much less and should only be seen from behind her, not in front of her.

That should be it. I hope this is helpful to you.

Thank you sutebenu!! I'll work on this :-)

I'd like to know what to do with the hair! I'm not sure if its good.

much better, but try fitting in a bit more shading and add some more details to the arms n legs respectively

RE: Garnet monster sprite - LordSutebenu - 05-17-2013

what Poco said but also follow the garnet picture I showed, put a little bit of highlights in her hair, some of the darker shades for her sleeves should work with the black.

RE: Garnet monster sprite - Astaroth_ - 05-20-2013

This is what I've been able to do. hope it looks better because I dont know what to do with those hairs! lollll
