Ahhh thank you!! :D Now that I look at the face again, I see what you mean. There's a lot of places with one-pixel steps that I still put AA on that I could remove to make her face a little more crisp; which I shall!

Another great piece of pixel art! I love how you manage clusters and play with colour. The palette is superb!

Almost nothing to criticise except from the face, which looks a bit blurry. I think the shadows have to much AA.

It's pretty damn awesome nonetheless. :)

Haha thank you so much :D It is indeed exaggerated anatomy, it's a style I don't draw in much but I find myself pixelling in

The anatomy seems a little exaggerated. The lighting and personality of the character shines through, and it is clear that you have a style that you can call your own.

That was most excellent feedback, I see exactly what you're talking about. That's definitely something I have to pay attention to, I really appreciate that pointer! I attempted to fix her leg up a little and am tackling the torso now. I need to shorten the torso. Thank you again :D In trying to condense everything in a small size, I sometimes get lost!

Edit: Attempt attempted

to me she is fine how she is art to me dont have to measure up just perfect or be to scall in all places  .. it's the personality in something that makes it and this has alot of it

I agree with both of you now that I look at it. I originally took the angle the hip tilted at and applied it to the knees in the original sketch, but there's a very big chance I messed around with the angles while doing up lineart and/or coloring.

I don't like her right foot either so I'm going to fix both that and her thigh today. Thank you guys so much for the great feedback :D 

I do struggle with anatomy while pixelling lol drawing anatomy and pixelling anatomy feel surprisingly very different

Her hair is great! And I love your colors.

But I agree with CELS, and I guess her right thigh looks longer than her left thigh.

There's something about your pixel art that makes it rather easy to identify as yours at a glance. And I think that's partially a very good thing, as you have a certain way of using colours and contrast. And you have a certain style with the narrow torso, short limbs and big head. But I wonder if it also comes from certain mistakes you make. Now, I'm a complete novice when it comes to this sort of art and anatomy, so take what I say with a mountain of salt. But there may be some issues that crop up again and again.

Like the angle and position of the feet in relation to the hips, or the use of perspective to get both feet on the exact same bottom line sometimes. Or the length of the limbs. It may be a lack of balance in the stance, sometimes. In this particular piece, it looks like her left shin is longer than her right shin. I don't know, I'm not good at this stuff. But I feel like there's something there. Maybe people with more knowledge can help. Either by clarifying or just pointing out that I'm wrong :)
