Hello, PixelJoint community! Although I have occasionally made a few sprites in my free time over the years, this piece of art is my first work that I have uploaded to PixelJoint.  I wanted a custom pixel art portrait to use as my Steam Profile picture, so I downloaded an image of The Scout from TF2, scaled it down, and created a pixel-over of it. I didn't worry about keeping color count low or any other technical things, as this was meant only as a fun practice exercise before I start doing some serious pixel art. Comments and criticisms are welcome and appreciated, but I don't think I'll be bothering to go back and improve this one.

It's a cool thing to use as an avatar, but it doesn't look like you pixelled over it, it just looks like you resized it. I don't understand how the colors add up to 231 if you repixelled over a pic, did you perhaps just do a color reduction?

Though, for the sake of criticism, I think that the right arm looks out of wack since there is no shading where the the elbow is to give it the appearance of it bending.

If you'd like me to remove it I'd be glad to.

I don't know that this is right for the gallery, you should probably wait and submit the aforementioned "serious pixel art."
