I had this crazy dream last night and it inspired me to a new pixel artwork. Well... I do need some help. This dream was about a horse race, but the horses were siting on a bike! I'd like it to look cartoonish. |

I'm not sure what you need help with. Looks like a good start to me. Fairly cartoonish too. ------------- |

Hi! Good concept, it will make a really funny picture :D In this stage, making the sketch before doing lineart, althought being cartoon, you should take note of animal anatomy, and keep two things in mind: - There must be a sense of mass (the horse is sitting on bike sit, or is stand up on the pedals?) - When the pedal go down the horse hasn't enought leg, you could make the hind legs longer and flexed, like real bikers do (use google images to find good references, i think there is also a good post on references here in pixelation forum... Here is: http://www.wayofthepixel.net/pixelation/index.php?PHPSESSID=1e31aa501dcfdd2ca47c7a6b8a167261&topic=3467.0 checkout art reference section Keep working on it, it's very cool :) |

| The head is too big in mine opinion, those legs are too short and you could work on those handlebars a bit, otherwise it has great potential. |

Yes, I would focus more on the horse's anatomy. Of course, it's even harder than that, because real horses can't sit. So, in order to allow him to sit on a bike, you have to sort of him give the hips of a human. ------------- http://ps3trophycard.com/profile/vilocon">
