Hi, I start to do this pixel yesterday, but i'm having some problems...
What bothers me most is the face, I always had problems with small faces. I'm not satisfied with the colours too, mainly the red and skin. Hope you can help me improve it, and sorry for my poor english x_x

The face is currently fine. The colours are also good, in my opinion. I personally think the pose is too stiff, though. Wouldn't the viewer see a different angle for both legs? When both knees are bent the same way, and the feet face the same direction, it looks very artificial. The arm holding the sword is the same. Perhaps try big, flowing lines to plan your image, instead of lots of small anatomical segments.
Keep up the good work! |

Thank you SuperTurnip, I'm lazy doing sketches x_x, I'll fix the foots, and I did some changes in the colours and face, I think it's better now:

| Is there a reason the samurai is smiling? It sort of offsets the rest of the image, which has a very dramatic atmosphere. Something in general reads as off to me about his face, but I'm not sure why. |

It was suposed to be an evil smile, but now that you said i think it will be better with a austere face, I changed it, thanks
