Well I compared and he did trace the lineart more or less.. but I guess thats no big deal, good luck with this !

I must say I hate the angle of the shoe you chose.. Its really boring, I like more intresting and unique angles when doing something like this.. just an advice for the future incase you dont need exacly from the side..

Well, you caught me :lol: Yeah, I did trace. I'm still a noob at pixel art, so that's why I picked an easy angle.

I still do need help with the shading.

EDIT:

WHATS NEW:
More colored stuff
Cleaner lineart



I'll finish up the shading and light source when I'm done coloring.

This would be an excellent time to find a good tutorial on anti-aliasing...And this is an excellent piece to practice it on given the number of curves and lines that don't present a clean pixel line...

I think it's too big to be anything real good.


Plus, being an Air Force One, it should be white.  :P

I've seen green and blue, red and yellow, orange and black, white and white, but this color really appealed to me on an AF1.

I think it's too big

I strongly agree.

comradvolk, you've kept it the same size when pixelling as the reference image. Why? It would be much easier for you (and us) if you make it much smaller so you can concentrate on using each pixel effectively in order to create what you're looking for. Good luck with your piece.  :y:

It would be good practice for me to do a big project.

actually smaller pieces (but not too small) are better practise for artists new to pixel art, they force you to consider the worth of the single pixel. Bigger pieces can become an excercise in manual AA and foremost patience, but not much more.
