Hey all! I'm new to pixel art and I got inspired to do some pieces.
I just started working with color and shades and found some neat tutorials out there so I decided to make 2 pieces for you guys to give your opinions on:

Use the

Code: [Select]

[img][/img] tags, there's a button for it when you post.

There's a lot of banding on the sword, especially the handle. (if you're unsure what banding is or how to fix it, go read this (http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299))
You shouldn't dither the blade because it gives it a rough texture.
