I've looked around and the bases aren't really helpful.

The thing that gets me is normally the walking states, it's hard to proportion.
Anyone willing to make a tutorial to get me started?
It's not that hard you know. Look at other base icons, closely check out how they've used the colors, how they've shaded the icon. Just a lil' bit of insight is all you need.

Lol Golden, thats bull. Everyone needs tutorial half the time to do with PixelArt.

http://tutorialblog.org/pixel-art-tutorials/ This teaches various things.
http://www.toolkitzone.com/library.php?mode=read&doc=76 This one is pretty good, teaches you the basics, to let you get the grasp of things alitte easier, then just " looking at bases" *cough*

good luck with your progress.

Observation is a bigger part to it than you think.
