Baba Yaga by 'Fool'?

tbh, it doesn't really look like his style...the colours and outlining aren't quite foolish.

Quick question.
Jinn and geminoid aren't remaking the first pixel piece from their PJ gallery for Pixelart Revisited... is that okay? Cause I wanna remake Milla Pe (in fact I'm half done with her... she's for a contest on CR anyways).


Posted By: skamocore
Date Posted: 30 December 2008 at 1:43am
Jinn didn't read the rules and his piece won't be accepted into the challenge D: and Geminoid is doing the http://pixeljoint.com/pixels/challenge_item.asp?id=1054 - Time Travel challenge.

If you want to do something for the Pixelart Revisited challenge you have to do http://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/23685.htm - this piece

"Re-pixel the first pixelart that you've submitted to your pixeljoint gallery. If your first pixelart was your avatar then your second pixel. Nothing newer."

Oic.
I'll submit the remade Milla anyways for non-challenge purposes and probably do Time Travel.

My entry for the 7even Knights one:)

I choose to do paladin :-)

I'm not making the first one cause that's not the oldest on my gallery.
Anyway, I'll keep working, that's a bit fun.

Good joke

Fool doesn't use outlines hehe

Hmmm... What exactly do you mean by not his sort of colours (Use, saturation, hue, everything)?
 
Aaanyway, I've worked some more:


Posted By: Elk
Date Posted: 31 December 2008 at 9:11pm
Looks alooooot better :) but I don't understand why yo make an orange outline around her
Also, fool would make her nose different and would make her smiling with 1-2teeth showing and the eyes being 1/4moon-like :D
nose a bit rounder like pinoccio

Everything else has to follow the reallife rules then...
would be too many to list up :P!
The colors are fine btw, it's just the use of colors that isn't right
and the proportions


Posted By: jeremy
Date Posted: 31 December 2008 at 9:45pm
Oh, was the orange outline what you were talking about? >.<
That's meant to be light coming from within the house, maybe I should show some other things in the house highlighted like that


Posted By: Elk
Date Posted: 01 January 2009 at 10:39am
Don't make lightsources like that...no light from inside
it wouldmake the character black if the outlines were meant to be like that...

That clothing doesn't really look too foolish and neither does the beard- check out http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/25723.htm - http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/25723.htm  and http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/38294.htm - http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/38294.htm  - I can see that your're going for a look like the second one, so keep at it

compare the hair! ...



Especially note how Fool creates a sense of depth with his hair.
