Stan's Dump Of Many Things Which Need Crits

[Helm]

If you could gather anything useful out of that butchered image, I am glad. Now let me weep more. In privacy.

holy shit what what what!!!?!?!! JPGED TO DEATH!

WHY WOULD YOU SAVE PIXEL ART AS A JPG? WHY DID I SAVE IT IN ITS NATIVE FORMAT? WHY? WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?

 

Still looks awesome Helm

I think You're most recent update is headed in the right track. It looks alot more natural, just take your time on the shading and the peice will come out nice

You still need some lighter colors ;o

why??  I think it looks very good the way it turning out.  I would remove the thick black outline though.

dunno, i agree with crow.  he needs some higlights with some decent contrast.

[Ryumaru]

his version is realistic. stones dont have major highlights like that.

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the crits and such. I just got back from being at my Grans house for a day and haven't had time to pixel much.  But I just started working on it some more.

A friend of mine suggested I use some hue shifting on the darker sections of the rock as aposed to straight grays. So here's how the rock is going so far, and a small animation next to it adding some hue shifting on the furthest rock in the middle

Amagad, 3 days working on a piece. Longest I've pixeled on a piece and actually end up satisfied with a work and felt it was completed.

And here it is:




Here's what I need, I need you guys to crit it so hard when I wake up tomorrow I'll cry.  But I actually think the completion is right here so, tell me what you guys think!

Lightened the middle rock top crack a bit, looks better due to light source.
