Hey!
I'm completely new and I'm so exited to learn more about pixel art.
So for my first attempt I'm drawing an iron helmet.



I used pretty much time on something as easy as that...
Can you give me some advice on how to draw better (for this picture and the future)?
Thank you very much!

Make a research on the subject you want to draw. Google some helmets, for example. Sketch some on paper - when drawing you'll notice a lot more details than just looking at. And then designing your own thing will be a lot lot easier. Good pixelling stems from general good drawing and from ideas. Technique is secondary. And good drawing stems from the careful observation and practice.
