Hey PJers. I haven't been pixeling for years.
Actually I never really got into it to begin with. Anyway, I've decided to sacrifice all of this month's free time to the pixels again. That's right! No less than 4 hours of pixeling and 2 hours of analyzing pixel art and/or reading tutorials per day. This week's challenge sounded fun so I thought I'd give it a try. WIP: 
Any advice is much appreciated. I feel pretty n00bish still. ------------- ... |

miau is pixellin'  There is no black on the palette, k. I think maybe composition wise it may be better if the observatory is facing right and is slightly recessed into the background so that you have depth. ------------- |

Hey jal and woops!
The other color looked close enough to black so I didn't notice I used real black instead. Thanks for pointing that out, fixed it. Yeah, composition isn't the greatest I guess. Although it was intended they're facing in the same direction Should be no problem to move it around a bit, though or just do it from scratch. I don't quite like it. :) ------------- ... |

Seems like there won't be as as much free time this month as I had hoped. Still trying to get the moai done and enter the challenge. I decided to concentrate just on the moai for now. 
Started to add some texture and realized again just how much work it is to get something submit-worthy :) EDIT: Alright, this will have to do as I'll be gone for a few days and wouldn't be able to submit it in time otherwise.  ------------- ... |
