Hey guys, new to the forum and was wondering if I could get some feedback regarding some of my pixel art.

I've been doing minor pixel art for over ~5 years now, but never took it too seriously. Just playing around in Paint whenever I was bored and had some free time.

Here are some of my most recent pieces:


This is a sprite of the Pokemon Kyogre. I struggled with the shading coming from a light source, mainly the areas on the head of Kyogre and its left fin. I used references from some official Kyogre sprites and used their colour palette. I know this isn't my own style, but practice is practice, right?


This the most recent item I have completed. It's called a 'Habbo alteration'. You take a character from the online game Habbo and edit it to look like a character. In this case, I picked Walter White from Breaking Bad. I first started editing Habbo characters many years ago and still do some here and there to check improvement in technique and growth.


This is a headshot of Link from Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda franchise. I struggled a lot with the shading looking appropriate overall and the shading of the end of his hat.


This was a pixel-over of Mewtwo. I like the work I did with the anti-aliasing of the lines, thoughts?

You can see more of my stuff at my dA account here. I am always looking to improve and strengthen my skills and build on the small foundation I have.

I'd appreciate any general feedback and tips as well. I've had some troubles working with colours, linework and anatomy, but I see that there's some helpful guides in the Rules & Resources section which I'll check out for sure.

I'll definitely make sure to post any new work here for some feedback so I can improve. Thank you for your time

EDIT: I thought I'd mention my work is completed in MS Paint but sometimes I use Photoshop if I need to work with layers or opacity. I'll have a read of the programs list in the Resources section.
