helm: I think the problem is theres not a whole lot of methodology critique to give, seeing as the majority of users don't know anything about 3d. Maybe a rule to post texture flats and wireframes along with 3d stuff, for those that have some knowledge. Otherwise all you really can give are ass pats and "that arm is a bit long".

sorry for off topic ::)

Well certainly there are better pixelers then me, but I am not exactly a poor pixeler either, nor a slow one.

Well everyone exaggerates their working speed I think. I find that coming up with something totally from scratch and working with it until it looks the way you want always takes longer then planned.

It's not here so people can post cgi-color-reduced stuff that look like pixel art and then say I saved this amount of time not doing my pixel art properly.

Well maybe its my mistake for not saying so, but that was just the background for my game battlescreen. The rest of it will include a pixeled menu with various options.

Souly:
Maybe do a stormy version as well? With like clouds all over the mountains.
