This is a very inspiring piece. It just rings my pixelling bell at once!
It looks fantastic.

haha, this is a great tin-man. I don't see anything to improve really but I would love to see all the Oz figures :P!
in the shadows, lurking.

Does the bottom text say "Boe"?
Because if it does that's crazy.

Cause Boe is my last name.  :o

"Ryumaru: Still more contrast? I'll play with it, but I do want it to stay pretty soft... Maybe I'm just a contrast-pansy? Anyway, I'll see what I can do. "

sorry, didnt know you wanted to keep it so soft, contrast-pansy. :P

Thanks guys :)

Akzidenz: Thanks, man. And hey, if being on my D. means pumping me full of compliments, by all means... feel free to stay on it :P

Ryona: hehe Thanks. Seriously, with the whole scarecrow/lion thing... I dunno if I'll pixel them, but I think it might be kinda fun to redesign all the Oz characters like this... and seeing as I have far too much free time, I might end up doing it at some point.

Feron: I tried putting the 2 together, and Dorothy's rush-jobishness really shows :P It'll take a bit of work before they fit together, I think.

Ptoing: heh, I thought someone would pick up on that. When I first coloured it, Toto was one of the darker grays, and was nearly invisible. I didn't want to add any new colours, so I just made him the whitest one, and I guess the poor little guy still gets lost.

Eqko: Thanks! Didn't try making the dress more saturated yet... it's worth a shot though.

KBS: Thank you :)

Souly: hehe watch it, I think the pixels are trying to tell you something.

Alkaline: Thanks

Ryumaru:  :'( ! ..err.. I mean... I upped the contrast. Happy?
Seriously, though; 1st post, update. Contrast has been upped. I believe you were right ;D

Thanks again, guys. I may add another tone now that the contrast is higher, kind of as a buffer shade. It's only 9 colours, atm, so 1 more won't hurt. Also, I think the legs might need some reworking for the same reason (contrast-issues). Anything else?

ah yes thats it. looking at your other works the ONLY fault i could ever find with them is that the range of values wasnt ever large enough.

i see what u mean about dorothy not meeting the standard of the tin man.  i think u should remove toto and put him on the floor.
