Pixel Joint Forum: [WIP] Chibi to Portrait

Message

So I'm just trying to make a more detailed portrait of a chibi (or ingame) character design.

I like the mild two toned shading (with the exception of the face). But there's stuff that's definitely off about the shading, but I can't put my finger on it.

Your thoughts guys?

Thanks!

	Is this a boy or a girl? Hard to say.

	Lol, supposed to be a boy. But I'm fine with androgynous. *Originally posted by jalonso* Is this a boy or a girl? Hard to say.

	In that case to your question then. The shading looks fine to me. The hands/fingers could be better defined is my main nitpick. The reason I was confused about the sex of the character is because the waist is so thin and the 2 hair thingies that almost looks/read as earrings. Its androgynous for sure.

	OT: Do you remember why your other pixels have been sent back? Had there been an issue? I don't see why they were sent back at all :/

	So, I expanded his midriff a little, made his expression a bit more fierce, removed the hair earring (lol), and tried my best to make his fists a bit more discernible. I think it made a considerable difference. Thanks Jalonso! The updated version. In response to your OT remark, I'm not sure what you mean?
