primal pixels

[huZba]

Time to replace the old "prime_pixels" avatar with a new one.
So here's what i have so far.

Nice! I think it's a bit dark still, makes that reddish lighting on the left side very subtle. Other than the palette, I think it just needs some refining to smooth out all the edges. Can't wait to see it done.

I HUNGER!

Would be interesting to see some more likeness to a real skull in the upper jaw teeth cheekbone area. Perhaps the sideburns could be missile launchers? Nothing is pointing straight forward now, and that bothers me, because I imagine the guy being a shmup boss who shoots missiles. And laser through the eyes. Little things that flip open to reveal turrets.

I really like it, but isn't the nose opening a bit too big and/or too low/close to the teeth?

hey I replyed in this thread! must have not hit the button. well, jsut wanted to say that I love that style. it falls right into my favorite style  category

I'd probably make more use of the back light though. awesome stuff non the less!

I think the light in the left eye socket is too bright for that side of the face (which is in shadow).

Both eyes feel emissive rather than lit in my humble view.

We're gonna miss the old one

Cleanup, stronger secondary light, added skull likeness, moved the nose. Missile launchers.... hmm.. pending for now, though the idea of making it a shmup boss is tempting. (sinistar used to give me nightmares )
The eyes are supposed to be small lights. I might try editing a bit if they don't read as such.

Yes you did reply and your reply was an one-liner asspat. You've been in Pixelation long enough to know better, though, so I don't know what's up. I deleted that post. Please keep it more critique-heavy. Praise can come when a piece is done.

huZba: darkness hugs the black lineart too pillow-like on many places. I'd generally clean up the planes much more and avoid single-pixelness noise until I were to feel satisfied with the volumes.

Since your secondary light is red, the purple saturated shadow confuses the color identity, I'd go with something cooler.
