its looking good, but i'm afraid thopse pixels doesn't work as a proper fur... he looks rather... spiky..
also, i would usemore darker colors in some areas to catch the attention of the viewer, for example, the all zones arround the face of the kitty(take a look at the ref pic you provided)

Yes, that kitty is either very wet or very sharp.
I'm also not very sure about the whiskers on (your) right. They're a little odd. I kinda like the bucket though. Just needs smoothed out. |

I think that the bucket is fine just bring in the 2nd dark green shade in a little more. Also for the hair i suggest you try to make it in clumps, never try to work on individual ones

That's why it's cute, not why it looks weird.

Design styles are quite different for the bucket and the kat. Colors are from different images. It does have a collage look : /
Of course bucket IN a cat is cuter still ![]() ![]() |

I'm not crazy about the eyes. It almost looks like (s)he's wearing glasses.

Elongate your AA pixels on the sides of the bucket. AA the rope? Perhaps darken some of it's edges or suchlike when outside the bucket so it's more visible. Perhaps add another colour between the highlight of the bucket and the midtone. Darken the first shadow of the bucket colours.
You need a colour to go between the tan colour and the brown colour on the cat. The dark brown is also too close to the black colour, it should be lightened. You need to work on your ramps basically, the rope's colours are too light for the shadows. Etc etc. Neaten up your dithering too, and make it longer lasting and more useful. The background and frame are horrible imho. :) I don't know what you could put in their place though. Also, the cat seems incredibly emotionless, it's kinda scary and statue-like... check out some cat references with some life in them to get a feel for what kinda ways you could add expression there are. Hope that makes sense, this is a nice little piece, keep it up! ~ |

Just a liiiiiiiitle lower contrast on the lightest green, and it'll look better.

I think it's the white lines around the eyes. It makes it look weird.

Thanks for the Crits! I tried to incorporate all of your points. I'm still having trouble getting a nice expression out of him... but I think it's getting much better. What do you think? |

I thin its the best one so far. maybe the nose could be more like an Y. and y was thinking about making the eyes even more smaller they are now, but i'm not sure... about the white line, as I see, you need to make it more subtle...

I think you've made some excellent improvements. I love it now. The ears weird me out a little bit...a bit too many of the pixels in there contrast (lots of dark ones and surrounded by light ones), without really giving it a shape.

I like this last version a lot, but the inside of the ears is a bit dark now. Use some less saturated colors in the ears and blend the lighter ones into the darks with middle tones. Also, it would be very cute if one ear kind of bent to the side a bit. VERY cute. VERY.
