After much consideration about the various merits of several different animation styles, I've decided to go back to the original semi-realistic, non-cartoonish, non-Flash-ish, non-pixel-pushing look of the characters. Here's your first look at Mary Jane Clayton, puuuurtiest cowgirl bandit in the Wild West!
Note: There are still a few color tweaks necessary, but this is very close to final so I've decided to share it. As you can see, she very closely resembles the character's original design from our promotional poster.
p.s. Jake's eight-direction walk cycle is basically done, and now we're working on some of the basic in-game animations like picking up an object, shooting his gun, etc. I'm saving the unveiling of his sprite for my next (and final) Adventure Architect column, though.
