I was COMPLETLY inspired by Brian's new avatar.
I decided to attempt to use this new style and create a much better character for my appearance.

This is in no way mocking Brian's new avatar.
I am not fingering his style or any art.
I am just using the same type of pose only more... Snooty.

This is just a test for me as an artist to learn a new style.

Brian the Great.

My attempt.

Totally REVAMPED: I didn't quite like the pose, he looked to fat and non-cartoonishy.

100% Better revampage: Alrighty I'me liking how this is going now.

Looks great so far. I'm glad you're leaving the wee behind... (as much as i loved it...)

The brim of the cap seems to be going quite high, seeing as the cap is facing down on that side. Also, i believe his thumb is on the wrong side of his hand (actually, it could be the correct side, but that pose doesnt look right with the arm for me at the mo). Other than that though, cool pose.

How's the update?

Bigger update.
I got an idea for my character to be sort of a "Soul"
Where he's like gas so he can shape things with his body.
And so here he is making an "S" for "Souly"

-------------------------------------

The backround and the Pallette.
Ok I've decided to go blue (Since Brian's is red)

Looks great, but i think i preffered it when he had hair down the back of his head. (not that piece, but that little bit).

And Brian, will you ever stop?

I'm going to load it to the gallery as is at the moment, since I wont be able to edit it anymore today.
(School is over)

And I really want to get rid of that Wee.

Poor snader needs to create a shade of green which isnt like tonsils or MoDs...

And some guy called alpix has also made one. It's peachy red.

If I say I doubt you can, it means I'm doubting your skills. It might look simple, but pulling it off right has proven to hard for novice pixel artists.

Why a cat? I'm not so keen on the whole 'random thing' thing, you should really try and make something that's generalised, but still represents you. I don't think i've seen you make a cat before. It's good though.

hahaha, I haven't made a cat before because I sucked at it (I've been pixeling for 3 months just practice, http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/10105.htm - http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/10105.htm is the last cat I did) and cats DO represent me ^^ on IRC my sn for one of the servers is CDI_Kitty >.<
