Post by: dalonedrow on June 01, 2010, 07:03:07 pm

Hi all.  I am pixel art newbie working on a hero icon for a 2D RPG.

And here he is again in cotton robe and leather armor

I'm looking for any C+C I can get on this piece and tips on pitfalls to avoid or areas newbies like me always seem to overlook.

Thanks!

I've made an edit for you my friend, I hope it can help you out, remember to treat things as shapes, especially this small and remember to know where your light source is.

Thanks for checking it out bengoshia.  When you looked at the original, what stood out to you the most in need of correction?
