Posted in the challenge thread with the first one.
Here's an update: 
I'm still fairly new at this whole pixel art gig so I don't know some of the terms and how to apply them. After I made this I saw Kaiseto's excellent 3 headed dragon, but I didn't really take inspiration from his piece. Anyway please tell me some things to fix. |

Cool idea, I like the funny faces. You should refine your design and clean the linework. Depth / volume are not obvious: maybe make the lower neck straighter, and show some tail on the right side for starters. There's lots of jaggyness and randomness in the outline. A lot depends on this! Then you might improve shading and colors: shift hues between the highlights and shadows, maybe add one more highlight, try to unify your palette by bridging between blues, yellows and pinks. |
