Pixel Joint Forum: Beginner pixel art

Message

   This is one of my first pixel works, i made it with the help of an expert friend.
Since i dont want to turn this into a long and boring post i'll cut to the chase.
I need help with pixeling hair, when it comes to hair, i'm a complete and utter noob.

That's about it, also, if you have any cc on the piece, feel free to post it since i'm willing to learn from my mistakes.

	*Originally posted by Nikola* ...This is one of my first pixel works... and you are already using selout We may soon need help and c+c from you! try hair using cell-shading and simple color fields instead of actual hair. Edited by jalonso - 18 March 2010 at 9:44am

	Its too hard to say without knowing where you are going. Hair can be made in so many way and styles. Look around the gallery and see what direction you wish to go. Do a search for 'portraits'. This project has all kinds of hair ideas (4 pages) http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/2302/Pixelation_Portraits.htm Don't copy anything, just be inspired by.
