It will help you a lot.

Surt's edit looks like dark hell on a sunny day. Why would it help me? I like it how it is and i really don't need anymore colors. Unless you insist on something else.

You need FEWER colors. You can use different colors than Surt, but nonetheless it is a technically good edit that shows how you can eliminate colors. You have 32; he has 14. Maybe you don't like his CHOICES, but the NUMBER is better. 32 colors for what you have is ridiculous.

I managed to remove ten colourse without deleting how it looks. IMO the number of colours doesn't matter as long as they are used in a good way. But this is not the case, for example the darker 1P tone is a colour that you can delete with the darker pikachu yellow colour, and pikachu thunderbolt (the one in kirby) can be in only one colour because the difference between both colour is really small to actually see a difference. You can also delete the darkest cloud colour(the one down of kirby ), hmm you also have two light brick colour one grey and another one blue you can replace the lighter blue colour with the grey one and you will not see the difference. oh you need to make the two kirby face more readably by making the grey be darker( use the outline of those kirby for that)

You have until Sunday At Midnight (i think)
You're doing it fine. it's an amazing improvement. Just compare this last one with your first one. It's seems made by to different persons! I would give more contrast between the bright kirby colour an his shadow. i like the colours on your avatr more. And make some AA in the heart (use the kyrby's shadow, don't create another colour) |

Before 12:00 Sunday, PJ time.
Check the clock at the homepage.
For the peice. Very nice update
![]() The heart container should be symmetrical and have a white outline:
Pikachus tail looks bent up and weird. Also you may want to show that pikachu cast that spark somehow.

Just a few things I see:
Pikachu's anatomy looks off to me. I would look at some ref pics just as you did with kirby.
Shade Pikachu using the same light source you did with kirby. (meaning shade his chest and face)
The cloud under kirby looks like a platform that he's standing on.
The shadows cast by the orange platforms are inaccurate. Reverse their angle.
Make the impact effect more prominent/dramatic. (and maybe even add a second lightsource highlight on pikachu and kirby caused by the effects.) Remember to do these too.

I said they were inaccurate because kirby was shaded as if the light source came from top-left, contradicting to the way the shadows were cast.

k, I got a crit for you, hehe.
See the mountains. Notice the is jaggy? Use the darkest blue or the medium grey to AA that a little. Just to smooth it out a little bit. ps: some people vote based on skill, technique and progress so you should get some to vote. Don't worry about stuff like that tho. Your Mom likes you, I like you...what else do you need ;) |

"Notice the is jaggy" lol
*Ahem* Moving on.
Actually the mountains should be lighter: as things recede they get lighter and bluer, no?
Remove the pink pixel that is on top of the kirby icon's head.
Change the darker yellow to an orange color.
Use a lighter blue to highlight the wooden platforms.
I liked the original text, I could see it and it looked nice.

I think the crate is shaded and colored a bit strangely for wood; I made an edit to show what palette choices I would use and to show one option of adding wood grain. Also, you can get rid of your yellow used on the 1P text and replace all instances of it with the yellow used on pikachu's shadows, and things should look better as well as use one color less.
The edit:
![]() You could probably use the highlight color of the crate on the platforms too if they're supposed to be brown.

Do what the monkey said. The mountains look great, and so does the rest of the sky. The platforms look weird, because they're supposed to be orange. Pikachu's tail: FIX IT! Try to add the green parts to the stage. The bricks on the wall with the orange platforms should be the same as the ones at the bottom. Pikachu's head looks a bit odd, and Kirby's lives look weird.

![]() I was an idiot not to fix arrow and text before. I had it the same, then changed pikachu's contrast and forgot to change. Thanks for edit, grain/yellow look is tons better.
E-Bomb, the the brick on the tower are not supposed to be the same cuz you don't stand on it...(so it has little contrast, differing from the platforms and the ground). I didnt say this... i think it was AtomicMushroom
What do you mean by adding green parts to stage? Fixed basically everything both u said except green thing and tower (which is not supposed to be fixed).
----I've tried thinking hard on how making Kirby's icon look better...pillowshade or anything. Any ideas or suggestions?

*Smacks forehead* Sorry, I guess I'm being vague. I meant to change the color of the bricks on the bottom that are UNDER the ones you stand on. Sorry if I was unclear.
As for green: ![]() See the greenness of the castle? |

dude, i know what you meant...your still standing on the ones under. The mountains are colored the same as tower... Its just a lighter cuz it shows its not directly part of the scene and you dont stand on it...just the platforms.
EDIT: made kirby icons look better

nice, except if you ever watched pokemon or played this game i'm positive he dosn't let out blue sparks but yellow. Icon edit on Kirby is nice...i gotta add the cheacks on mine.
Your Pikachu is Smaller and more 'pikachu'. (but when i comes to size kirby and pikachu are basically the same in hight
Holy crud Jal, nice man. Tired of that beer? I love the impact, i will surly do something similar and with kirby to...(ofcourse as a ref.). The orange light on the blocks...i might only do something similar under the action, or i would put it on the tower blocks also. Edited by volcom - 13 January 2008 at 10:58am |

Remember this is a 2D version of a 3D game not a clone.
he sparks are not blue that is 'glow' :p Your version is a tiled mockup so the clouds should be copy/pasted not all unique. Edited by jalonso - 13 January 2008 at 10:57am |

![]() we'll its similar...on the clouds, i made 2nd top row all identicle. for the top, i think since they are big maybe they should be a bit diff. Unless you insist it should really be identicle.
I only shaded blocks were action was...looks cool to me.
EDIT: 16 colors

hmm I would make the 0% and the 210% bigger since right now It is really hard to understand it, same goes for the 1P and 2P. You should AA the heart and improve the white outline since it is jaggy
