I'm a weakling, I joined the fad... :'(
Animation coming soon.

EDIT: Just the beginning...what do you think?


looks good so far, although your hair freaks me out man, it looks like a perfect fusion of a hat + real hair.

It is hard to believe how FAD my AVATAR is 0:

Sixteen colours of dottyness. It looks a bit dirty, if someone sees something I sould change for the better, please tell me :]

Animation coming if I ever come up with something amusing.

EDIT: I just realized that I still have stuff to do but, alas, it is in the middle of the night and I'll just change the picture if I update it. Critz R ztilL WELCUM as I'd deliberately put it. :D

EDIT2: Updatzerd :]

jad: i think, while they work great for the hair. the two darkest browns does not really fit as skin tones. it kindof makes the neck look like some sort of jaw strap for a helmet.
or maybe it would be enough to just add more lighter skintones to the neck. and also the nostril area.

Woo!  First proper pixel art in...too long.  A year and a half, perhaps?  Too long, regardless.

It even looks like me, if you squint a bit.

Always remember: a preposition is not something you should end a sentence with.

SEE UPDATED IMAGES BELOW
First one has hires restrictions, I think. Second is hires edited (doesn't use any restriction aside from the palette). Third is an attempt to fully use the potential of the c64 palette.

And I've just realised that there are a few problems on the colours, but I'll fix them later.

And I want C&C, please. ;)

Filax, man. The C64 pal looks awesome. Completely slapped me in the face and reminded me that when editing palettes you're allowed to edit the actual pixels too. No C&C from me i'm afraid, just caught my eye and i had to comment.  :y:

Nice stuff from everyone else too!

Colour problems should be fixed. Let me know what you think.

@Larwick: I'm glad you liked, man. You should do a c64 version of yours too, I'm sure you'd do something awsome ;D

Holy, Moly. They are awesome, the first two are very simple and look superb, but the third is mind-blowing..  :y:

Forgive me if I'm unable to see what everyone else is seeing but what is so special about the 3rd sprite? It seems apparent to me that everyone is excited about the fact that it uses a C64 palatte, but what else? I just want to understand :)
