Well my first pixel

 

 

 

Lower the saturation mate, and try to give the tree trunk some texture, when did you ever see a perfectly smooth tree? Infact when was the last time you looked up and saw that the sun wasn't round, it was infact a squarish blob... :-s

your grass is good

I think the grass is copied all the time :? .

 

 

 

Get your shading right. Don' t dither yet untill you know how to shade well.

 

Those randomly placed dots in the sky arent really adding to the pixel, they are just creating chaos.

 

Make the sky' s shading more smooth. And the sky won' t ever get that dark when its daytime. The sun is a little bit blocky too.

Everything in the pixel is far too uniform. Your shading is far too extreme as there are huge differences between each shade. I do like the grass, though some of it does look copy and pasted like DS said.

If your going to dither;

 

1. Learn how to do it properly, follow the edge of the colour and place the dots in a uniform fashion, 1 dot every 2 pixels, you only need about 2 rows of dithering and it'll work

 

2. Use colours that are closer together on the colour chart, no matter how much dithering you use it won't look good unless the colours are close to each other, in other words don't use the darkest green you can get then a middle green then a super light one, use a middle green then a slightly darker one, then another slightly darker green.

A bit boring. :P The sun isn't shaped correctly either, and the tree is too straight.

 

 

 

It seems to get rather dark behind the tree too.

 

 

 

Not vad for a first though, 4/10.

ARRGGH! The saturation! MY POOR EYES THEY BURN!
