So I did this and I'd like it very much if people could help me see the flaws in it. Thanks!

Its nice. Go for lots of drama. Extreme shadows more stalaglites the most dramatic (high contrast) lighting you can pull off. Think claustrophobic...lower those arms :/

It's hard to tell what's what. The head is too triangular., where is the body? The figure just needs to be clearer before we can give anatomy advice and stuff.

The shadows could be more extreme. Jalonso's advice still applies.

Yay for non-JPG image! Have some pixel art:
![]() Also, I appologise for my rather inconsistent updates. My parents want me to do other things than computering and they're completely right, so less computer time. sry ![]() |

Looking great. Do your parents understand that your art is not a waste of time/ They might be completely wrong.

Yeah, drawing is a great hobby to have. Teaches you lots of things, like patience, attention to details and coordination. I used to draw all the time when I was a kid, didn't have computer back then though. Thought I'd become an architect or something but became a web developer instead
![]() Nice job btw. Edited by sormi - 22 August 2013 at 11:36am |

Thanks all! I think they understand that pixel art can be and is in fact important, it's just that I literally don't do anything else of my days and I have close to zero friends, so, yeah... their magic word is balance.
Also, they kind of don't want to deal with the trouble of managing the computer between me and my brother, so they usually just give us our 3ds's, my iPhone and his iPod touch. Fun fact: this piece was actually started at work when I had nothing better to do! This entire thing also explains why most/all of my pixel art is at a resolution of 64x64 pixels. Edit: I will submit this tomorow after the overnight subissions get accepted. Edited by programgamer - 22 August 2013 at 7:32pm |

Thanks, though my friend went away like four days ago, so he's getting back home much sooner than you might have thought. Still, I get an achievement for being your friend for a day, right?
