Technically that is an incorrect way to spell it, but That is how we say pallet.

We were both wrong :/

It's okay because he edited his post. So you should do yours too. *thumbsup*

Damn you baboy, quit paying attention to my edits :X

Either way, thanks everybody.

haven't updated this is a while, posting here cuz' my computer is goin' crazy.

fixed some stuff on the top left one mentioned at pixelation, but everything's still a big work in progress :>

The womans face (nose and mouth specifically) are horrible. ):

The pose and posture on the snow mountain guy seem kind of off, notably his arm. I'd also recommend darkening and desaturating the actual 'mountain' parts; unless you have a ref that says otherwise, generally during storms like that mountains take on more of a 'black' type appearance, especially in the presence of a heavy amount of snow to help contrast it.

not much to say on the others, but its all pretty good for the most part

yeah I'm aware the face is in some need of some work, but I haven't got around to it yet

and really? I didn't know that about snowstorms on mountains. Thanks, I'll research it some more =)

yeah, usually the snow-covered mountains are dark colored.

That red guy hiding the spear should be more defined, since he's in the first layer. Also, since his arm is on his back, his right scapula should be showing a bit more.

I don't know what it is; you have awesome technical skills, but as a whole, they don't appeal too much to me. It's the equivalent of a professional painter coloring in an amateur's drawing. I don't mean that to be offensive.

If you worked on your traditional art more, you could be great.

actually I've been working more on my traditional stuff for the past few months now, and imo it shows more, but thanks anyways I guess. I'll keep working on it..

Although honestly I can't really see where you're coming from. The only things that look like they need work in the traditional aspect is the woman's face. Anything else was either a stylistic choice, I'd say, because as a whole I feel like everything, even though in the sketchy phase is about as realistic as it could get.

Sorry

you tend to make everything cylindrical, which can work in a few pieces but you always do it, even when it makes no sense. that bridge looks like a cylinder, the trees look like cylinders, the mountain looks like a cylinder, and the monster looks sort of like a cylinder. also your anatomy is flawed and that monster looks very flat. i would've gotten the shading perfect before i added the texture

trees TEND to be cylindrical- same with some rock formations.. was using a reference. the bridge doesn't look like a cylinder, I really can't see what you're saying there. It was also referenced, and that's pretty much how it looked there too . and the monster's curved because, you know, things ARE curved irl. he also doesn't look that flat to me, but I'll play around with the shading, I have an idea on how to fix it

are you asking that I make stuff with straight lines? because I'm just drawing from life here- I try to use references and the things around me to pinpoint the shapes of things, and most things in nature tend to be rounded.

also, anatomy's hard to work with, I've redrawn the woman several times, so I'll keep working on that. I'm sure you can agree with that. ;p

Thanks though. Not trying to turn down any critique here, because most of what you say is valid, but round is a natural shape, and that's what shape natural things are as far as I see it.

If there's anything you'd personally like to see me do in pixel art please let me know. I'd like opinions. Whether it be a face, a person, anything. I want to prove that I can work with what you guys are saying and make it what you guys want it to be.

Thanks~
