Nial idle strip

Generated from: SNK Neo-Geo arcade fighting game sprite strip, high-level large pixel art, NOT low resolution. A single horizontal row of 8 full-body animation frames of the SAME fighter, read strictly left to right, each frame in its own equal 256x384 pixel cell, the whole image exactly 2048 pixels wide and 384 pixels tall. 8 pixel fully transparent vertical gutters between frames; no frame content, sword tip, hair or coat crosses into a gutter. Background fully transparent, no backdrop, no gradient, no ground line, no drop shadow, no border, no text, no watermark. Every frame is ONE complete coherent full-body pose of the whole figure at large size, feet on the same baseline about 12 px above the bottom edge, head near the top of the cell, horizontally centred. Never a collage of separate body parts; hands attached to arms, feet to legs, sword held in hand. CHARACTER (IDENTICAL IN ALL 8 FRAMES, never redesign): adult muscular man, 3/4 view facing right, long vivid RED hair with heavy motion, thick RED beard, black EYE PATCH over one eye, tiger-print blouson jacket with a white fur collar, tiger tattoo visible on his chest, a detailed katana sword in his hand proportionate to his body. Fire and tiger supernatural presence. Detailed readable face, individual hair strands, fabric folds, real tiger stripe texture. One consistent light direction: strong light from the upper left, cool rim light from the right. Gothic darkness plus neon arcade accents. ANIMATION: a live looping idle combat stance, subtle breathing with chest movement, small weight shifts between the legs, hair and coat settling and reacting, sword drifting with the body. Intermediate poses between the extremes, never a repeated still frame.
