I haven't done any pixel art in over a year! This is my return to the dolling world, even though i've never been here before. This is called going out I wanted her to be fun and funky. If anyone has any ideas for what to do with the bottom half of her that would be awesome. The base is by http://www.citronrouge.com/ I edited the face of the strawberry base. I moved the eyes further up and closer together. CC is welcome and wished for!  Thank You! EDIT: I fixed the whole saving it in the wrong file format thing...

Please don't save in .jpg because it ruins all the colors and quality of the pixel making it impossible to see what you did and what to critique and what just got messed up to the .jpg format. .png or .gif (not in ms paint) are the best options for pixel art Some general crits: - is there a bottom to the base? - I'd edit the face more, right now it's barely human looking - the nose is barely visible, so I'd add a deeper shadow under it; the mouth is a little blurry and too close to the bottom of the face making the chin basically nonexistent; and the ears are too small. I know a lot of this is meant to be stylized and not realistic, but I don't think this particular base does a good job with the "cute" style, it just looks awkward to me. - The outfit so far is kind of boring and generic; have more fun with it, make it something unusual and exciting. Make it stand out, right now it's just one in a hundreds of others that look practically the same. Considering how static and common the pose of the base is, you really have to push yourself on the clothes and hair to make the girl less boring. - The hair line is a little masculine looking, I would round out the bangs with the side of the head slightly. |

Thank you!
EDIT: There is a bottom half to the base. She has nice long legs I just messed them up while trying to work on them and erased them.
I tried to save it as a bitmap, but it didn't work. I completely forgot about doing it as a .gif though! Thanks!
