A new challenger approaches

[Level 1]

I am not looking for respect from anybody, I am looking for improvement, and I was told how to, and again, I did as I was told.I was told to learn from references, which I did, I was told to try and create an original piece, which I did (The animated knight character, which by the way, I have not gotten any criticism about, which is the main point of this thread). I was also told to try something new, which was the tile set I presented (Which also I haven't gotten any criticism from). Like I said, I am confused on the message that I was told, did I got it wrong or what?

You know what, somebody please close this thread, it has spiraled out of the main focus, the main messages have been completely misstated and wrongly used. So I personally am done dealing with being accused of doing what I was told.
