With the metroid mock up, her pose looks really off. She looks like she might fall over because she is kindof leaning back and doesnt have a very powerful stance. Everything else looks really cool though :y:

DracoDragon42> You're damn right, the posing lack of stance. I'was trying to keep a girly shape, but I've lost the strength of a power armor.

PixelPiledriver> Thanks =)

Pusty> Yet, it's nice of you taking the time to drop me those few words.

The Torii piece is my favorite pixel art piece of 2015. I  saw you "Spark of time" two days ago on reddit, didn't know it was you. Great work, you're the kind of pixel artist I want to become.

Welcome! Been loving your animations a while now :-*

If I had one larger overarching crit it would be that your work all looks great on a macro scale but on a pixel scale its a bit blobby. It'd be great to see you go into a little more detail and take a little more care in your textures and stuff, it would really push you to another level. The plantlife in most of them and the rock textures in the darksouls piece are what I'm talking about, sort of pillow shaded in that the light tones are always islands in the centre of the mid tones, that sort of thing. The TMNT one is a step in the right direction.

Anyway looking forward to critiquing anything new you post here :y:

washk>Wow really ?  thanks, I feel honoured !

32> Thanks for this critic, much appreciated. I guess you're right regarding the texturing work : I've been focusing on color, animation and lately struggling with the right amount of AA. I've surely neglected the pixel touch and details, they are hard to animate and I'm trying to avoid realistic render.
I'm gonna do my best to level up on my next piece  !

Speaking of,
Last year I've done a pixel greeting cards, it was one of my first "real" pixelart piece (sooo many mistakes on it... )

So, I've got only 3 day to complete this year card, here is the WIP !

Really great stuff, very professional and obviously speaks for itself in terms of technique and detail.

It's great to have you here, would love to see your opinions on the pieces of those of us who are newbies to the craft.

Maybe a little bit more texture on the leaves on top of the trees, as they are pretty large blocks of solid colour right now, and you could maybe add more cloudy bubbles to the sky?
Both aren't necessary though. It looks great as is, and I've been liking the progress.

I think it's done as well. (Or at least the nearest you can get to "done", as there are always ways to make it better)

Heheh lovely little animation. I haven't seen the show but does the head really work like that? Due to the way the eyes are glued on a cylinder I get a strong impression that her mouth/jaw/chin area is bowl shaped.

Anyway the dance and animation style is ace :y:

Thanks ! The head actually kinda work like that, I was mimicing the mickey's ear animation trick. But I've also altered the face design, so maybe my anim isn't as respectful to the original character design has it should, resulting in a bowl shaped chin (which is kinda cute ?).

thanks for the critic, always appreciated.
