It was my birthday on the 15th, so I thought I'd try and get a decent pixel to start my new year.
I'd like comment and any hints/thoughts/suggestions on what I can do to make it better. The head, wings, and background are still to be done.

Thanks

JPEG'D
anyways... Aside from the horrible file format, I see a few things you could work on.
First of all.
All your dithering looks messy and un organized.
It just looks randomly placed and it gives it a grainy look, rather then te texture of scales.
The ankle looks like the foot has been glued on.
You don't have a consistant light source.
You've got higlights appearing as if the light is infront of him.
And others that show the lightsource is above him.

The jpg was just as I loaded it onto the web. it's a BMP at the minute on my machine, it'll be PNG when it's finished.
I agree about the dithering, I'll see what I can do
Which foot are you on about. I'm guessing it's the one of the left, I can't quite get it to look right, the actual ankle was supposed to be behind the foot, but I the perspectives off for that, so maybe I should keep it at it's current angle and tidy up the ankle.
I'll sort out the light source when I sort out the dithering.
Thanks for your comments

The left foot, yes. I think the reason is because you have a line going from one side to the other. Like they're two seperate parts.

I can't crit if I don't know what's supposed to be what and what isn't.
