Trial and error is a tried and true method.

Yeah, best to show us (or someone who knows something about pixelart/general art) what your current level is, then we can tell you where you're going wrong so you can try again to improve upon it and your mistakes. Practice makes betterness. There're a few pixelart tutorials around the web, i think most of the links will be on the main site somewhere. You can start there to get yourself inspired if you like. -------------  http://larw-ck.deviantart.com">

best ideas you could ever get are from 90's Genesis and SNES games. and other 80's systems too. messing up with some games wouldn't hurt you and probably will give you an idea of how everything 'feels'
