Message

   Hey PixelJoint this is my first pixel art and is currently a W.I.P.
I
just wanted to see what you guys thought, get some criticism, or
suggestions on shading particularly the top of the helmet. (I haven't
started working on the arms yet).

Thanks

	Hey hey, welcome to PixelJoint! I will save the constructive criticism for others, but I just wanted to say that your method of work is not very logical. The best flow of work is often to finish the lineart, then add color, then add shading, and then add details. This way, your piece is really built from the ground up. Adding color and detail before finalizing the lineart could cause you a headache if you have to make changes to the lineart later. Edited by Frost Butt - 21 November 2011 at 5:55pm

	Alright, I understand what you're saying. I think I am going to actually redo the sprite, but go in order this time, for practice.
