Your colors are WAY too similar. Try widening the value range (darker darks, brighter brights).

The plane is looking ok but the lineart needs to be cleaned up before coloring.
I suggest then breaking up the plane into areas that are manageable for you to color. This is very easy on metal planes since you can break the body into panels. Then color. The lineart is important first. For example the line right after the glass canopy is very dirty. Also the tailfin is not aligned to the cockpit. Fix all these things first. Forget coloring for now. Patience is very important if you are ever to get any good, k. *btw, the typo in your handle is really cute, don't ever change it. Edited by jalonso - 26 December 2007 at 8:50pm |

Thanks a lot Jalonso, now that you mentioned that, I will be able to line everything up pretty well. I guess I over looked that because I have been working so long.

First off, wecome to Pixel Joint!
OK, this isn't too bad. Lineart is good but doesn't seem to be even. Maybe try a completely top down view, it might be easier to color and pixel. Also get a reference if you don't have one (preferably one in the same position), they can do wonders to the final outcome.
Thats everything that hasn't been said, apart from the lineart thing, but I just wanted to stress that point.

FYI, I have sent your pixel back as a WIP. This is because you have made a WIP thread thus making your gallery submission an active WIP.
