I seek the lerned advice off of the Pixel Jointers.

Back when I was on DeviantArt, I thought that this was good... Now that I look at it again, I can see that I am well off of the mark, in many respects, such as definition, and perspective.

I'd be pleased to recieve some harsh reality-type criticism.

This is my reference:

I was trying to retain its style.

	These 3 Gods in your gallery have been pieces I like and have potential. I think their main issue is that they are hard to read and takes the viewer more time to make out than it should. Me thinks its your color choices that's the problem. All your work suffers from color choice problems for the most part. Except, Huitzlin Class starFighter which has enough definition to be seen and understood clearly.

	Thanks, this is a good start. :] Is it that they need more contrast? Many colours, however different in tone, seem to just blend in, when I look at it in full.

	Not really more contrast (its always a good thing tho) I mean more 'definition'.

	Ah! I see. I'm currently trying to simplyfy the details, and make them more pronounced. It's starting to become obvious what and where some parts are. Although, the original picture was a very vague image, due to that Aztec style. And... Here it is. The changed I've made so far: It seems to be a little more defined, and I've tried to keep it simple, when it comes to the details, too, though. Even newer, here is the latest changes I've made. I'm not sure if it should be considered finished, yet, though. Edited by Huitzilin - 26 August 2010 at 1:31am
