Well, I haven't created a "real" pixel in a while. I don't consider this small piece a "real" one either, so I'm still in a pixel mental block. I just decided to try this week's pixel challenge and this is what I came up with. I chose to do the second haiku by the way. Anyways, there's around 10 colors or so, didn't really feel like counting all of them, lol.
Nicely done, though I think you should update it if you want it to be clear he's holding his head. Looks like just some kinda weird, alien guy to me.
Nice job, though. The autumn is captured very nicely. There's a brown-ish shade you used in the background, right where the orange ground stops near the top, and it's the only other thing kinda pickin' at me. The color seems to be too subtle, or not to fit.
Thanks Stone. Actually, that's not a huge head with eyes, lol. I should have cleared this up about the person. It's not the best pose, but I tried. (sort of, lol) It's actually a person walking with his arms up on top of his head. Kind of where you lace your fingers together, lift your arms up, and put your palms on the back of your head. I usually do that when I'm walking, so I thought I would try at something like this.
Anyways, thank you guys for your comments, very appreciated.
Even though you dont consider this a real piece, it shows a real nice sensitivity. Look a that lovely subtle blue there. I think its one of your best pixels.
You probably couldve used less colors, though, and it looks like his eyes are holes through his entire head. Whatever though, it looks nice. :D
