The mindmaster is a sprite I am trying to do for COP.

Mindmasters are generic unit that can only attack using books. They levitate, and teleport.

His legs are crossed, and I should provide more view. I know it looks bland, but it's kind of the goal. I am seeking advice.

I would give him more shading. Great idea though.

I'm not really good at this, but I can say that the head needs another shade.
The white clothes were good. The feet isnt shaded properly too.

Hmm.. that's an interesting sprite if its walking animation is like floating animation.

I like the idea of a human sprite that uses a unique walking animation.

Head needs a lot of work. You need to work on shading all around...the concept itself is very interesting though.

dont know if it's possible, but a floating animation or something for his walking animation would be preety sick.

No it is not sick, it will look quite awesome IMO, it would be first sprite using such thing.

Sick is a good thing Kage. Heheh.

Anyway, yeah, a custom floating animation would assuredly kick ass.

This is very gay in game though. Looks like a baby blanket.
Should I add a hat ?

The sprite looks like it needs to be a bit larger.  The arms also seem to be incorrectly sized, but I suppose this goes along with the body.  By comparison, the Mindmaster's right arm is only half the length of the Knight next him's.  Also, if the legs are crossed beneath him, you are probably gonna have to draw redraw his lower half a bit, because right now it looks more like he is simply a floating torso rather than someone floating cross-legged.

The floating looks awesome, I gotta admit. But fix his size, like everyone said.

I would do an Avatar "Aang" there but I like your Idea with him sitting down and flying around in full concentration. . . I like the design of it but just make sure to proportion hands and legs.

the Flying animation for walking is possible since that is what I did for my custom Halloween sprite Ifrit where he flies with a fireball as walking anim. . .

I like the new flying animation. But update it just as people have said before. I've always wanted to make a sprite that scratches his behind and looks at his watch as an animation... maybe i will do that now...

well, I think it is interesting if the sprite blinks his eyes, too. :)
but, that'll look weird: 1 blink per 2 seconds..

yeah i was planning that. . . hopefully all my patches would have that in the walking animations. . . 5 frames enough to blink ^__^

edit: Could be dust in the eyes. . . LOL

Proportionally, the body is kinda whacked out. You gotta work on the size of the arms and legs, as well as the shading on the entire body. There's a sprite of Gafgarion with his arms folded--take a look at that to get an idea of how to fold the sprite and keep proportions.
