[C+C] NES centaur

on: February 19, 2015, 03:57:25 pm
Hi. I'm new here. I'm Vijfhoek, and I wanted to get into pixel art for quite some time now, so I decided to just give it a try and draw a centaur (inspired by #pixel_dailies):



Drawing the human was especially hard, I really don't like the arm and hand. I also dislike how static the human is compared to the horse. I do however really like how the horse part turned out. Oh, and I sticked to a NES palette I could find on the internet.

Any feedback would be highly appreciated!

The Human defknitely looks static, the horse part is looking great though! If it were me I would push his shoulders back to the point that his back is at a decent angle and have his head reaching up and forward so that he can still see in front of himself. With that though you will have to bend his arm out into more of an action position. This picture kinds describes what I mean but I would have his arm bent more and his hand in a fist.

Notice that his body is more or less 90 degrees to his horse body and his head is tilted forwards.
