	A brick wall would be a good background for a club bouncer. Maybe a glowing sign that says "Enter" or "Open" as well.

	so you think the guy is fine? I'll do the brick wall and probably add a sign. Thanks man. please c&c with body if you think is needed EDIT: i took off name on his shirt and added $ madaleon. I don't think theres enough room for a neon sign...anything else guys? Edited by volcom - 22 December 2007 at 12:07pm

	Doesn't look like a bouncer to me. At least, not for a high class place atall... since you want to convey the fact he's a bouncer through a first glance i'd suggest going for the more generalised view of a bouncer. Bald or shaved head, large build, thick neck, and perhaps a black suit. You need higher contrast in your colour ramps. His neck is tiny, and his body is ... square! You need to check out some reference pictures, study some anatomy, otherwise he'll look like his heads poking out of a red box. Don't bother with the club vent writing on the shirt, it doesn't work and text will usually ruin an image such as this one because of the tiny canvas size. Good luck.

	The bricks or sooooo wrong. Change them to actually look like a wall.

	I don't think I've ever seen walls built like that in real life. You should do this: ███ ███ ███ █ ███ ███ █ ███ ███ ███ █ ███ ███ █ Rather than this: ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███

	no need to use a gradient in the cigarette volcom. also, anatomy is far from being accurate. i can make you an edit if you want some guidelines to use as a reference.

	*Originally posted by Metaru* no need to use a gradient in the cigarette volcom. also, anatomy is far from being accurate. i can make you an edit if you want some guidelines to use as a reference. this would be great . Sorry, it might take some time for me to really catch on to what you call "pixel art". I'm trying the best i can.
