I'm very new to pixel art (by very new I mean I've experimented with it off and on but have always been terrible, and just decided today that I wanted to get serious about it and try to learn it). I'd love some feedback on an RPG character I did based on a piece of pixel art made by Heartbeast in a Let's Pixel video, as well as a ukulele that I made based on a ukulele sitting across from me.
I know these are absolutely terrible so don't be afraid to give it to me as it is, I'd just like to know what kind of things I can keep in mind next time and do to get better.
