I suggest starting from a quick sketch and then defining it, like this:



and then adding features like clothes and stuff. The pose is the most important thing first! When you're done with the naked body, add everything else : )

So my pose is bad? I need to start all over again?

Before seeing your comment I did an update:

Well, I quit for a while pixel art the more I realized it was all my stupidity, as I will be good if I did not even try to be right?

I left all the progress of the past in the trash and start over come this.

I wanted to be a chief, shaman something related to tribes of Indians. (Note: Not exactly an Indian).



Top Questions:

The head: There comes a way to make the head, how it fits and how it should be.

The left arm, I tried much ever since the beginning of the progress I could not apply in a correct manner the arm.

Hands: I do not know if they should be, I think is the hardest thing to do. Doubt if I do something simple as a circle with fingers or detailed and so on.

Textures: Mostly the texture of banana leaves (clothing), among others.

Anatomy: Well this will tell you what to improve.

Well that's it for now, hope you help me.

Thank you.

Well, I edited the form of a little mountain of mine and added some stars think it has improved.



One more thing I suck, I never was lucky to find a good tutorial and not had much practice ... The clouds, this is a problem that has always plagued me, always goes off to one side, another narrow, the nerve I would like if you had any tutorial on clouds because that is my problem.

Look, I see some pictures in this style or model of mountains and sky for example, the more distant mountains are not as detailed, and I think you should do the same because maybe the image is drawn very detailed with all the rocks, sometimes things Simple is better.
