Pixel Art / Re: Carnivorous plant

Allright, gave your tips a try.



That helped on his looks. Thanks. ;D
I also changed the thorns' color to brown, because they're too hard to see if they're green. As a fourth thing, i also made the stalk a bit thicker towards the head.

Any ideas for more changes/improvements?

Pixel Art / Carnivorous plant

So yeah, this is what i have:



The color palette is from a game called Cortex Command, which happens to use magenta as transparency. I also made a version with a gray background, for ease of viewing, seeing that magenta is a pretty... Vivid color. But anyways, what i'm looking for is advice on how i could make him look better. One thing in particular would be the stalk; namely how it appears perpendicular to the camera, instead of "pointing" in the opposite direction of the head. I'm also not entirely satisfied with the overall look of the stalk, but any attempts at making it look better have failed. The image isn't WIP per sé, it's just that i think it could be better in some regards, but i don't know how to make it so.

Oh, and as a final note, please don't be too harsh with the criticism. ;)

Salutations, Pixelation! ;D

I'm Shook on the internet, and Søren (Sören or Soeren, though the one before the parenthesis is the correct one) in real life. I'm a 17 year old student, who lives in Denmark, and i happen to have an interest in pixel art. If i didn't, i wouldn't be here. ;)

So anyways, i've been doing pixel art (Spriting, to be accurate) for around 2 years, but i never really got into it before like half a year ago. I'm not exceptionally good at it, but that's why i'm here, where i can hopefully improve my works. I've always wanted to be able to make good art, and seeing that pixel art is the only thing i'm half-decent at, this is probably the right place to be.
