I have had about a month of basic- no tutorial spriting. The forum i used to go to had a section on spriting, but there were only about 2-3 people professional like here, so i plan to move here and change.
Long ago,
I made my FIRST EVER grass tile:
  Now:
 FIRST EVER Sand tile:
 HELP! (tell me if you are talking about my latest grass tile or my first sand tile)
And don't worry. I'm not another immature freak.
 Even though at 16 years of age when i will start making money i will have six years of experience... and if this is my first year...

From what you've posted, I'm assuming you are looking from a bird's eye view, correct?
(Bear with me because I am new to the pixelling society, if not pixelling itself ;D)
*Thinks for a minute* I think just make the lines short and almost stubbly. Add some darker shades and highlight the tips of the lines where you think they're "pointing up".
I like the first picture better, personally.
But, then, if you're going for something less realistic, I am of no help. ^^; ------------- Gremlins rule the world; you just don't know it yet. |

 I tried a tile for a layout once. I failed so miserably.Good luck, though. ------------- Gremlins rule the world; you just don't know it yet. |
