Welcome, I recently joined too.
Last edit to the lady is great in the way of contrast and definition.
The wing and sword could use a little more definition though.
When two objects of the same color are intersecting, there is usually a darker shade on the one behind.

Man It's been a while since I last posted here. . .

I'm really sorry that I'vent had time to reply your post earlier.  :-[
Also thanks for your advices. :]

~ Small update ~



Should I give her a belly button or not? Do valkyries even have belly button ???

edit: forgot to finish her stomach before sendig the pic.

hummm, you have a problem of contrast on your character.
so I decided to make an edit :



it's important to use contrasted colors for a better reading of your stuffs.
for this, the job consist of increase dark colors to create a better contrast on the whole piece. I have also changed some pixels :)

I disagree with madPXL :crazy:. Reads fine on my monitor.
New version is mucho better in every way, really, LMR. It's a commendable effort on your part.
Though it does seem odd to me that all she'd be wearing is underwear. Not really a bad thing, though! :P
Oh yes naked women are beautiful
But I like shrimps more haha ;)

I agree with Gill. At this point, contrast seems like it would be more of a personal stylistic decision, but for reading purposes what you've got is fine.
I bet this would look incredible animated  ;).

Meh and I thought I finally made some progress in adding more contrast.  :blind:
Your edit is really helpful and I'll try if I can do anything to that contrast issue of mine

Thanks for your wonderful words, makes me feel happy that you like it.  :y:
Oh and about that oufit, first I was planning to give her some kind of armor skirt thingy, but it didn't turn out very well, so I took an easy path and give her something that would be more easy to pixel.  ;D

And now to you sir. I have to warn you, with my current animating skills I can't make bird fly but instead I can make it float.

You bet it'd look incredible animated, those words made me think and after a while decided to animate it.

So you beat me to it.

After it's done I can't promise it'd be incredible, but it will definitely fly, fly like a valkyrie does ~  ;)

@Sherman Gill and Xion :you have right for the style.

for me the problem is at 1x. When you are viewing the piece at 2x, it's reads correctly !

@LMR : your piece is great, I'm waiting the animation too :D
