Need help on getting this the right way. It's supposed to be a head found in an old Aztec temple or something.

I need to know if this would be the way the Aztec should have pixeled... Or just some 'normal' errors.

yeah, try and find a reference picture, as it is rather unclear what this actually is.

Yeah, hard to say what is wrong.  It looks really good to me, but I don't know what would be historically accurate for an Aztec statue.

Soo... more feathers. and I think head a little more abstract, maybe throw some lines straight out of the lips instead of just around. Oh, and big interlocking curvy teeth.

Thank, saboteur. I know I'm a lazy piece of sh*t, but I do use google most of the time. I had the tird link already had a visited colour, and I used a ref from my history book. I think I just need to fix the teeth and some of the lines around the mouth, so the colouring can begin.

I need caffeine. Fast.

I think you need to get rid of the pupils in his eyes, make them more stone-like.
I also think it looks very flat right now, although it's hard to give depth to lineart. Looking forward to the finished piece.

couldn't really put into words what I  thought you should do and I couldn't help myself by trying it out myself...

Looks more like a statue this way instead of a live creature

Hope this helps
