Hola! te sugiero que agregues un poco de antialiasing a esas tortillas, ademas de agregar un poco mas a ese fondo vacio. no mucho, la idea es centrarse en la imagen del centro.------------- I ate leel's babies |

Toooooooooooo much AA ;) 1 or 2 AA colours should suffice. -------------  http://larw-ck.deviantart.com">

Además de lo que ya te dijeron, podrías agregar más comida en medio de
la arepa, que por buscarla en google ya me dio hambre, se ve muy rica
http://fis.ucalgary.ca/aval/321/arepa4.jpg. En fin, trata de usar mas contraste en los colores, y un poco de rojo del tomate no le vendria mal para darle más vida al dibujo. Un tip: evita darle AA a las líneas de 45 grados, (o sea un pixel en diagonal), solo aplicalo a los que sean dos o más. |

The arepa itself has some really wierd AA going on. I wonder if the colors are correct, looks gross to me :/ Because its really hard to tell what it is maybe you can add the word 'arepa' to it? Also that shadow stuff on the top of it...I would delete the flag (tacky) and maybe replace the shadowing to the shape of your country? Lastly, the grey BG color is a little boring maybe in its flatness, textures or a whole new color. I may make a tiny edit for you to get you moving, have an arepa in the mean time ;) ------------- |

 Time for a little talk with you: First and foremost pixelart is a hobby of patience and mental planning. You are eager to learn and are going for quantity as opposed to quality. Every idea has a possibility and your stamp idea is no exception. If you require Ridalin speak with your Doctor. Pixelart like any artform is an integrated visual communication. Your approach is atm isolated items placed near each other and disconnected for the most part. On my edit I used the BG pattern to tie things together. Your transitions are always ignored and only weakens the 'idea'. Idea is 99% of art, imo. I did not spend but 15-20 minutes to completely redraw every single pixel. Since you are not me and you may not use my pixels since they are to show you the possibilties of your idea only. I just know that in the next 24 hours left in challenge you can take 1 hour to rethink your stamp and then allow yourself the other 23 hours to rework you pixel into the best thing you've made so far. remember to use patience and planning. Today I am feeling lazy so I took my free time to edit your stamp but is not something I really like to do. If you ever hope to get help from me again, since you always ask for lots of help from the PJ members. I require to see the right amount of effort on this here pixel you rework in such a manner that I don't even see one of my pixels on it. This means a whole new approach from you and if I make your brain hurt because I took an approach you wish you had come with yourself...you asked for c+c and possible edit ;) ------------- |

now it looks like a hamburguer .-. :P but kinda cool.. i hope some day to make a work like that.. ='( I really don't understand why PJ members don't help me.. =(, i'm always trying my best.. but is hard.. i'm only 14 years old and i got around 6 months making Pixel Art...
i know.. about designing ccoz i have 2 years designing at phostoshop and i know that Idea is the biggest part of the art i don't like to steal pixels... so i wont use yours.. i'll make a whole new stamp...
i promise that for tommorrow you'll see a good effort from me in my stamp... i'll take my best at this challenge... and i'll take yur edit as a reference...

This one looks better. Couldn't expect less if you are taught by the pixel sensei jalonso! :P You should decide on a background color asap and then AA the edges of the arepa. I think darker background looks better, but in the end is up to you. You can soften the lines in the "burned part", remember that you can use colors you used somewhere to AA some other area. Also the outlines should be darker than the inner color next to it. |

Sadly, I can't teach artistic abilities, only technical things and tips. The BB pattern is too subtle and hardly noticeable. You could add a plate or something to fill the area better. Silverware, drink or other stuff. The arepa is all lost in such a big place. Out... ------------- |
