Here some Pixel Art, it's Pixly (Android), Aseprite and Photoshop.

I would like to know what do you think.

Thanks :)

It feels very surreal and out of tune with normal "art" standards, for better or worse. Reminds me of pilotredsun's work a bit.

Thanks MysteryMeat, yes it's a bit strange, but it's "real pixelart" in the sense it's made without any automated tool but lines and paint bucket.

Thanks for let me know the work of pilotedsun, it's amazing! now I follow him in Tumblr  :)

There's no such thing as "automated art" unless you're counting those neurel net experiments. Nip that thought in the bud please.

Yeah though pilotredsun is pretty excellent

Yes, I suffer that, I'm mainly a digital painter and I have said too many times "but it's digital, it's done by the computer" and I hate it.

I have said that in the sense it's painted pixel to pixel, with no other "aids".

But I understand you very well 😀

Strong lighting, although could use a better, or larger pallete to accentuate shadows.

I get the feeling of wanting to  work around a larger perspective, or maybe a very loose one, but the lines which read "club" are more wobbly than the lines used to create the architectural details such as the windows. Not sure if this is intentional.

I would probably work on the sign a bit more.
