the resubmission is because it has been in the pixel art queue for too long it seems , and after all I do want it to be seen and not just go under a big amount of pixel art that was posted after while it was in the queue , and I do not think a description is some thing that fits to explaining this pixel art , nor a high contrast which would just not look good for this piece , I guess to me the face seems more obvious and I thought it would be to viewers too , the face features are basically that big nose the shadow that represents the eye socket areas and lower a puppet looking mouth .
So this has been resubmitted multiple times or so it seems. I dont know if youre just not happy with your first submission or just feel like its been waiting in limbo for too long. Either way I'll give you some CC on it that might help it stand out a bit more and get accepted quicker.
For starters, I cant really see what it is or what you're conveying with this. I can somewhat see a face but I cant be sure of it... Perhaps you could try using a different palette, something with a little more constrast and try bumping up the level of detail slightly. You have no description so I cant provide much on tips just because i honestly cant tell what im looking at. Try taking this to the forum or DM'ing any of the artists here for tips!
When we make art we tend to notice everything within our pieces since were the ones making it. Things that come instantly apparent to us may not to other and thats simply because we will always know our art better than anyone just viewing it. Every time you resubmitted it, I gave it a good look over in order to rate it and vote for it. First time I thought it was some kind of ship, next I though maybe some curtain parting but that also didnt seem correct. It wasnt really until this one where I assumed it could be a face but still wasnt sure. I think now that I've given it a lot more thought and you've confirmed that its a face, the off putting thing for it is the blue outline and the cross patterns.
