I definately like the bat effect better. However, both animations seem to be a little slow. (That may just be the gif though.) Also, in both animations, Alucard seems to be in a strange pose. I feel like the animation would pop more if alucard were to fling out his cape, which would then become the bat's wings. If you end up going with the smoke animation, you should probably brighten up the colors and add a little "flash" to them.

About your alucard sprite in general, I wanted to point out some little things that kind of throw me off.

• Alucard's face appears a little green, and I don't see the colors many other places in the sprite. His face pops out, but in a way that makes it seem like it doesn't belong in the sprite.
• Alucard's face never changes its position. A lot of his movement appears unatural due to this. This also applies to his hair.
• Your lightsource is inconsistent. Light seems to be pointing up at his face, downwards on his cape, and from the side on his body.
• In the fireball animation, Alucard's cape stays suspended in the air for quite a few frames. You should probably make the cape fall down after he puts his arm up to make the animation look more natural.

cool!
everything is great just try to reduce the speed of stance animation and try to tweak void sword attacking animation a bit

The 1st idea was to make the animations looks cheap but in the end i did more details to the moves in some parts XD.

I still like the punching with flaming guards. That's pretty kick ass imo!

Slight fix on the crouch attack:

Slight fix on the crouch attack:

That looks a lot better. Just 2 things:
-Shouldn't Alucard's body become brighter from the flame effect? Even if it's casting a shadow from behind him, it would remain the same color, not get darker.
-Why does only the gold change color? I feel like the black should as well. It looks especially awkward on the gold on his knee.

His back arm snaps on the way back, you might want to add a frame there.

I was so focus in the Front arm that didnt notice that, with luck this is fine and thanks:

A

Done with the needes sprites wanted that the hair and clothes move, i focus more on that

B

Its like A but have more move in the hair, i think its looks bad since i add more movement up to the hair and looks unnatural but perhaps its in my mind XD

One of the sprites I made with my project in mind. Alucard added for comparison purposes.

The Creature:
Artificial life-form created by a foolish man, from the body parts of powerful warriors. One of Dracula's ancient guardians.

Igor:
Bound by magic to the Creature, Igor became its immortal caretaker. Tending to such a dangerous monster turned Igor into a deadly foe.

I made a slew of completelly new sprites for my project that I'll be showcasing soon here on the forum
