Well, this is my first submission, and probably one of my most detailed. It's pretty old just by a few months, since I think I made it around November of 2010. Still, a favorite of mine.

 

-He's kind of a prehistoric, "extraterrestrial"  life form, similar to the "Angels" of the Evangelion series. Only he is less grotesque and monsterous. He originates from a alternate plot line of a story I made some while back, and stands as a huge favorite of my characters.

-I'm pretty new to pixel art, but wanted a sega genesis/ Comix Zone look (Which is sort of a pun), and think it worked well. Very proud of this one. But, I dislike the visor, hair, and background.

-Critcism and help, please!!!

I ment every word as cc and nothing else. If you read anything else its your hurt ego talkin.
Also I didn't really need you explaining whats on the picture. My point was that you should make the picture so it speaks for itself ;) Since now it imo doesn't. 
Also imo you have what it takes to make it much better. Otherwise I wouldnt bother with ccommenting.

Well, you don't have to crap all over my picture. Forgive me if I misunderstand your comment, but that just sounds flat out rude. If you'd like an explanation, I'm just doing a simple mugshot that was a zoom in on the character. The background is meant to be close and cluttered, it's just how I pictured it in my head. But, don't get me wrong. I do have other ideas of how I could change the background.

So, yes. We have a brick building, with Hotel written in the back, and a phonebooth infront. The character is extraterrestrial. He is meant to look very odd. I wanted for him to stand out. And, to give him an angelic presence, he wears feathers in his ears.

I know I ask for harsh criticism, but your comment just comes off as sarcastic and rude, so it's difficult to listen to your advice. Give me a break. I'm new to this. Still, thanks for the help.

To me the image dosent look very interesting.
 It shows: somebodys bust with rockstar hairstyle?, wearing some undefined strange clothes, with more strange and undefined things comming from its ears? and on its eyes. even a gender of the person is hard to tell.
On the background are chaotic pieces of objects like brick wall ? and phonebooth ?
And its all kind of chaoticaly overlayed that you cant make any sense from the picture.
So maybe it would help to get rid of something, and also show more of the other objects - larger image? - so one can get an idea what we r looking at ?

Thank you. I see EXACTLY what you mean about the highlights. It's something I know about, and like to stress, but can be difficult to do sometimes. This one helped the most. :) Thanks.

 Yep, its pillowshaded. try specifying a light-source for the whole picture.

Good face and nice colours, but the hair and clothes need to be shaded to match that and the background - highlights at the top left, shadows on the bottom right.  The way you've got it now with central highlights and shadowy edges makes it look like the light's shining on him from directly in front, which looks flat and unnatural.
