Hello my friends, im fairly new at making pixel art. I like simple pixel art.
I was making an avatar but im terrible at making bodys. I dont know if you guys can give me some reference in this style or finish it for me. All kinds of advice are welcomed. |

Hey there!
I did some serious editing here, but please, I beg you to not consider edits to be other people "finishing it for you". What I did here was take the information present (slouch, expression, beer t-shirt), and exaggerate it into a super-casual pose. I made the hands very large and expressive, and the legs bent to show a lack of tension. I tweaked all the shading, and cut down the colors to 12 from a much higher count. The guy is relaxed, casual, and cool, as shown by the hand gesture of an understated point. I know this is probably very different than the "simple" style you had in mind, but I'm just throwing it out there as some food for thought! I hope it helps. Keep pixeling! |

Wow SuperTurnip, your comment is a great reminder not to underestimate how many decisions an artist makes even in the smallest, most simple pieces. I forget sometimes!
