This is vuckin sweet. The only thing I see is a slight awkwardness in the limbs, do you have references? I'd love to see this get all surreal, mangled twisted long legs or some stuff, I dont know. Your pistons are firing, more please. You're talented, nurture it.

Thank you very much! :) I don't know if you should call it talent because I always remove some pixels here and add some pixels there not knowing what it will be looking like ^^
But I sure made some improvements though my "shading" is very basic.
I had a reference when I started working on the small one (x1 size) but I think I deleted it
Here you can see some pictures of what those shrimps look like :). I didn't color it white because i found it boring somehow.
The limbs and the scissors should be smaller and transparent also but I dont know how to create that effect and it's hard to find good reference pictures of them, because they are only like 2 cm tall and you need a very good/expensive camera to catch them.

Why is the shading on the tail in the newest version worse then the 2nd newest? ???

Also, I love the limbs as they are, personally.

because I spent a lot of time on the head
and I didnt like the look of it so I decided to repixel it (again... ;D)

I start understanding how the shadows behave on an object and I'm really in love with pixelart right now. :)

Ok this is what I got so far. I think the body looks better like this:


But I can't figure out where the second row of legs should be.

First of all, thanks for your critics! The 2x effect of the antenna was not intended at first, but then I decided to keep it how it is because I also like that "effect".

used the crab at http://leslierich.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/files/2007/08/beach-08182007-crab.jpg
as reference for my shrimp's left scissors.

I will add more aa to it's body,pixel some antenna, repixel his legs and add another 3 legs on the other side when I got time.
The greatest problem I have is the shrimp's tail. I couldn't add shadows to it because i dont know how it looks right (I have no reference).
That was also my problem with the first one.
help would be much appreciated. :).

I finally managed to pixelate something that actually looks like pixelart :)
Maybe a few of you still remember my first and second try.

I have improved a little since then. I spent almost 20 hours or so -_-. I'm quite happy it turned out that well :) :) :)
