Snorkl swimming

This is a custom enemy for the DKC series that I made. His name is Snorkl. He's obviously a bad swimmer, hence the rubber ducky floaty. He just swims at the surface. I'm thinking he should be more of a stationary enemy, rather than one that moves back and forth, but I did make animations for him turning. He does have a snorkel on his head, and rather than making two animations of him swimming, his snorkel will just magically go on the side of his head that faces you.

I made this guy out of clay and made a stop motion animation and then turned him into sprites.
