I'm much happier about how this last version has turned out. I still need quite a bit of help with the colors and pixels. Could I please have some help?

These colors are much more 'gritty' and realistic. If that's what you want, alright! I think the gun is a pixel too high on top of the arm, really. You're shading the upper left (ours) arm equally as the lower one, though the top would get much less light in its underside.

I didn't exactly understand what you just said. Could you show me by pointing an arrow at the place?

I added a bit more contrast, and did a bit of tweaking. I need to make the face displayed more prominently.

Critique?

Wow, thats really great. I love your newer color choices! I'm not sure what could be done extra, but you could always make more!

Thanks!

There's gotta be something wrong with it...

Nice progress here, colors are definitely improved.=) A few things still bothering me - his pose kinda stiff. See if that make any sense to you - i put a shadow under the hat and instead of using a new color for the pants in the dark range use one in midtones.

I get where you're coming from, Fool, but I dunno. Now his legs [almost] look mirrored. And do you stand in a straddling position to shoot? $:-\$

Sokota

Although I do like your pants colors better.

He could have been facing one direction initially, but was then required to fire to the side, which isn't unlikely if this were to take place in a hectic shootout scene. Moving his entire body to face the target would be a waste of valuable time.
Legs aside, I think Fool's edit corrects several points, such as the stiff arms, gun shape, and readability.

Fool, you've definitely pointed out a lot that I should change, thanks!

I'm unsure of what to do with the hand that doesn't have the gun. It looks unnatural how I currently have it, but I don't want to change the pose to Fool's, for reasons that Sokota and Cure pointed out. Any opinions?
