I disagree about alpha'd hair. At this low resolution you'll never achieve the sharp spikes the character has. Maybe on other characters it would look fine, but the spiky hair is one of the few striking design elements. Personally I wouldn't want to compromise that and would be more than happy to sink a few tri's into maintaining the silhouette.
I'd just kill the inside and the extra loop on the hair leaving a shell. After doing that you'll be swimming in tri's to use for all those other good suggestions.

This is for an old NDS game thats not moved to iPhone dev, so ignore the texture res as I'm painting at double atm. Still very much a work in progress hence the odd shading on the model and the neck area. Also the ground looks odd because its tiled and displays oddly at higher than normal res! :p
Actual iPhone screen res mock up:
The player model is currently under 500 polies with sword, and the texture atm up top is a 256x256 but the final will be 128x128. I'm keeping it at 128x128 as there will be close up camera points of the player so it makes more sense, but don't need to go higher. The eyes are seperate planes and a little higher resolution to pop more.

Amazing job Racer- I had a taste of making low poly guns when I worked on COD Modern Warfare Mobilized for the DS, and I'm loving yours. Gah, I would've loved 128x128 maps for those views.

Odium, you might want to consider working on that rock / cliff texture some more so that it matches the rest of your assets. That, and it's a bit too obvious it's photo-sourced!
Racer, aweeesomee!!

wow racer kick ass set! Bummer we won't get to play with them.
Cool plane Harry, 256 map?
Jalechah - Try pushing the shadows a little more to give the character more volume. Cool poses!

I'm calling the pirate done so it doesn't get too busy on a small screen/resolution. 480x320 pixels isn't a lot to work with anyway, and this is the biggest I imagine the model showing up on screen for special camera sections:
Now onto the level textures...

Like I said previously if you read, the textures were painted at higher resolution. The smaller pics on the right are final res. 128x128 for the main player isn't too high res at all when hes seen up close in cinematics and what not. This is for iPhone not GameBoy Colour...

but then there's no use on showing us the texture at a different resolution than the ingame one.

critiques on technique, style, w/e... Overall i like it, could be a bit more painterly and nice, but at the distance its seen at, it doesnt need much more detail.

I didn't. The above pic has the ingame 128x128 on, the image to the right. The left is more of a beauty render. No reason to get annoyed.
