I've been working on this for a about an hour, and I was wondering if I'm headed in the right direction? I need some tips. :crazy:
Never done this sorta thing I wanna try something new... You know, improve my skills, lol.

Not much to say really, looks good so far.

Personally I'd make the second lightest color more saturated and more yellow, and darkest(besides black) a tad more blue. You might want to avoid black too, use a dark green.

The line art also isn't exactly 1 pixel by 1 pixel. You might want to fix that.

Now... GO GO GO!

Okay, I took your advice about the color and it really helped. I decided to make a thick black outline because I think it fills out the image well.

That is quite a fat flat leaf.
Perhaps add some points to the leaves?

Yeah, I know the leafs a bit distorted, but I'm not working on that part yet. What do you mean points?

Ok, I think I'm pretty much done with the letters. I shortened em up a bit so it would look better. I'm gonna start working on the leaf now, any tips?

P.S
BTW, my birthday is on 4/20, that's what drove me to do this piece.

Edit: Plus I smoke a lot too but don't tell anyone, lol. Just kidding, I dont give a s**t who you tell. :B

I just noticed, the 2 is a Z.

While in many situations the 2 could be mistaken for a Z, I highly doubt it will be here.
