Nice work.
Nothing to crit crept that maybe you work zoomed in and maybe don't look at 1X often to check yourself to see if you are over pixelling. For example the yellow lights and the shadows on the legs. Not a bad thing, just something to make a habit of because if you can't 'see' it at 1X then it may not be needed. PS: I sometimes overpixel on purpose because I fear other pixelartists telling me I'm lazy :p ------------- |

looks great, love the shading on the mask
nitpick suggestions, maybe the legs of the barrier could be flat and have the legs be angled in perspective rather than just straight. Also maybe the yellow spheres on the top could be rounded a little more on the edges |

| I love that roadblock! I think you should make the legs in the back a bit more diagonal, I think it'll look better |

Loads of new WIP's :0 Need to add texture and highlights to the pool rings - along with cleaning it up. Will also add more details to the sand castle, make the snow cone colours blend more and not make it as symmetrical. Anymore tips?
P.S.: I am also really new to these forums - but is there a way to upload custom display pics?

What's up with all the colors in the leaf lineart?
Were you trying to color the lineart? If yes, then why not on the orange? Your AA is very timid and maybe even where its not needed on the orange. Be brave about AA. If it looks smooth at 1X then its good if not then its a fail. ------------- |

| It is no where near done :p You'll see what i'm doing with the leaf later :0 I'll be editing the leaf soon. I didn't finish adding all the AA, it was just something I quickly did and didn't have time to finish, will be finishing it later today. |

| The hats flipped upside down look off to me because the shadows on them don't change. In the project the hats are for, does the light source change whenever the character/hat is upside down? If not, I think the shadows should be changed accordingly. |

| On the current game I work on, the flipped views are supposed to have the same light-source and shadows, or else it looks pretty weird. But I think I might try testing some things out to make it look more "technically" right next time. Thanks for the tip! |

| I like the cross block road hazard and the spaceman helmet. The land mind looks more like a bowling ball though to me. But nice stuff! |
