I think you are working a little too large. It's just too tine consuming to work at such a scale, get every detail correctly, and rework parts. (also post your work at 1x instead of scaling it. We can up the scale by clicking the image.) Below is a wip that would have taken MUCH longer if he was to stick to the larger size.

You have several instances of banding, notably on top of his nose, where his (teeth?) meet his face, and on the little rock creature's arms.

But the main issue, here, is you are relying too much on dithering and not on the clusters of colors/shapes themselves. The shape of the clouds and hill have curves that suddenly switch to straight lines. The trees's lines aren't curvy but look unrefined or done with a shake-y hand. The tinting on his top hat is 2 or 3 pixels thick at every part. The strange line where the purple of the BG meets the blue is unnecessary, lumpy, and the same thickness throughout the entire line. Clusters are often nice looking shapes with lines that look like they could be from an exponential function graph.
Below is a bunch of exponential functions.

The colors that you are dithering- into each other- are contrast too much, and the dithering becomes highly noticeable and unappealing. Some of the colors, like the bright yellow and orange contrast too much with the entire image.

The perspective is also odd. That's something I have had trouble with in the past myself. Try working with references and looking at real life images. Draw out your pixel with pencil before you start working in pixels.
Not everything needs a black outline. The rocks, orange orb don't need it.

I advise reading these as it can be quite helpful- http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299

Hope I have helped, and keep at it.

I don't know why I felt compelled to try and shade this, but it gave me a little distraction lol. Anyways, this is how I would shade it:

Light in the moon is better now?

And change colors in clouds an adjust forms. I respect the shadows in hill, body of richmanand and owl, grat idea by Kurieta (thanks :-) ), one  arm is back to chest.

Edit: delete line in horizon.



I hope you enjoy it now :-)

Thanks!!

oks, but I hope some forum administrator can appreciate my work, the other day I threw a good long time to edit this :-) thanks

Man, I speak Spanish and I am, but I understand some English. But if you talk to me in Spanish I would be happy :-)

Hombre, yo hablo y soy espanol, pero entiendo un poco el ingles. Aunque si tu me hablas en espa?ol yo estaria encantado :-)


And my LAST UPDATE :-/


edit trees and clouds more good with lightmoon, with dithering in the sky.


regards :-)

@guupzi: Gracias. Soy de Ibiza España

1 Saludo.

I will do as you say, it is true that some details are wrong, thanks for the constructive criticism, now I get to work, being new I learned some things with these details you told me.

Thanks for your trouble

-----------------------------------------

Haré lo que me dices, es cierto que algunos detalles están mal, gracias por la critica constructiva, ahora mismo me pongo manos a la obra, al ser nuevo he aprendido algunas cosas con estos detalles que usted me comenta.

Gracias por las molestias.

One time last...

The result is this :-)

 After some editing think the result is better, accept suggestions, but I would also just like this. The moon is more circular. Step I missed, it was not my intention to copy your work stepdragon;-)


I need a beer:-D

Despues de algunos editados creo que el resultado es mejor, acepto sugerencias, aunque yo lo dejar?a asi tal como esta. Se me paso por alto, no era mi intencion copiar tu trabajo stepdragon ;-)
