My First Ever Pixel Art - Onmishift - 07-08-2015

it's a me mario
it's my first. tell me what u think

Almost every part of Mario's head (especially the nose and hat) is out of proportion. Make sure to use a reference.
Other things :
-There's very little contrast between the shades you used.
-The "M" on his cap looks drawn and is a lot bigger than it should be.
-People's mouths aren't at the very bottom of the head.

The eyes look nice also, but out of style from what we see in the games (but that's ok).

I'd suggest making a bigger sprite. It's easier to fill in details that way.


RE: My First Ever Pixel Art - Quirby64 - 07-09-2015

You forgot Mario's mustache in that last sprite. Also, checking it in Gimp, you have both jagged lines and pillowshading going on. 
The proportions, besides the hat, are looking better.

Bigger sprite...? It's already really big. I think you didn't realize that you need to click the thumbnail to enlarge it!
