Hi,
I've been thinking of making a game with pixel art graphics. I can write the code for the game, but when it comes to graphics, I'm worthless. I tried to make a gundam-like robot and it came out like this:

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? The shadows and lighting look awfull and the whole thing is just not recognizable enough. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Yukito

Made this out of it so far:

Body needs some work though. Colours are temporary.

You might consider just expanding your size... They don't look bad for that size, but it would be better if it was larger...

I think the form is fine, it just looks a little flat. Try adding some shade and highlights and that will add some depth to it.

I'll try and increase the size and add some color later :) Thanks for your suggestions!
