Yay, a smiley.I'm hopeless at anything animated or side-view, so if you guys have some spare time, feel free to give me a hand on those... :P
(This thread was originally specifically about Ji Hye, so that's why the first 30 or so replies focus exclusively on her)

Just the basic one, I'll try to do the different poses by myself.

I like that for the borders you chose a darker shade of the colour surrounded. Avoid absolute shades if you're going for a natural look though.. just a hint of brown in the hair base colour and -then- drawing a black or very dark brown border will change it a lot.
Taking only parts from an original sprite and then creating the rest from scratch bears the risk of severe imbalance in the final image - you have a natural face with soft curves and a well-pronounced jawline and a block for a body. Overall I do think it's a charming sprite and I can tell it's taken you a while, but try toying with body sprites until you feel safe enough to try your own proportions :) All the best.

For the lighting in the hair, it's meant to be very dark. That's the whole intention.
As for the proportions, I don't really see it as wrong. She's just not meant to be very wide. To be honest, she's already more so than I originally intended.
I do need to work further on the sprite though, and that's before getting to the task of animating it...
At least for the first case, I don't need any prosecution-view yet. ^^
I'm not very experienced with spriting, so this isn't so easy for me... :/
That, and a very strong lack of knowing how to use any feature-rich graphics programs in detail. Apart from recolouring the hair and reshading the face, all of that was done in Paint.
What do you think?

Although nothing was copy/pasted for this, Ini Miney's sprite was used as a reference.

Mostly just the arms that need work now...
Hopefully the next update will be the last one before I start animation and other poses.

From here, I can't think of what else needs to be done(apart from adding badges and maybe a chest pocket on one side), but since I'm new to this I'm sure I've missed something, so please, fire away with any other suggestions.

As for the pockets. Personally I like the outfit better without them.

The body is coming along nicely, haven't started on the face yet.
But...
DAMN. THIS IS SO MUCH HARDER. O_O
Now I see why so many people here are doing front-view sprites only... >_>
Having only one female character at that angle to use as a reference just makes it even harder... well, two if Mia's defence sprite is also used, but...

This is trying all three of editing her front-view head, using Mia's as a base, and using Franziska's as a base... nothing works! :(

Obviously far from completion, but how's it looking?
(Edited from one of Adrian Andrew's sprites - convenient, as the front view was also edited from Adrian Andrews)
UPDATE:
Eyes! And, a mouth like her normal one!
From here on, I'm gonna need suggestions...

Anyway, I just added another character (front-view), Prosecutor Sunrise
(got one more prosecutor to go, he isn't as much of a main character so might not be the next character)

) Your female Character Ji Hye Jang's head is too big for her body. That, and it looks like you put it on a paper thin body, so detal shading will help flesh it out. Her hair definitly needs some shading as well. Try studying Original AA characters' hair to get the idea. Shading Detail will make a world of difference. It'll take a while (4-6 hours) but the end results will be worth it. As for the Prosecuter, I'd say his head may be a bit small for the body. Aslo, shading for the Hair As well. I can see you're making an effort, and that's good. AA Sprites ar Hard to get down and take a looong time to finish, but lot's of practice will make all the difference.
