Are these any good?

Ok here's the deal: First of all don't post something that you don't think is good yourself. C/C (comments and criticism) isn't very effective if you aren't attached to the work itself to begin with.

 

 

 

Second you said that you're not very good with pixelling. A few words of encouragement, no one is good at their first sigs, practice makes perfect, and don't be discouraged. Once you start to get the hang of pixelling, you'll get better and faster at it, I guarentee it.

 

 

 

Now to the C/C:

 

 

 

Your first sig is not a bad idea but there are a few things that need work. The tree is too simple a shape, try drawing more branches and make it assymmetrical (sp?). I see you've tried to do rudimentary shading which is good but you need to take it further. Generally speaking, I use about 5 or 6 shades per object, though sometimes more. The more cartoony you want it to look, the fewer shades you use probably to a minimum of 3 shades. The more realistis, the more shades (I've used 12 for rune armour before)

 

 

 

The first sig also looks a little flat. What I mean is it doesn't look like the objects jump out of the page at me or go back into the computer screen. Don't worry, a little shading and adding shadows will help this a lot.

 

 

 

Same basic ideas with the second sig, shade and add shadows. More detail would also be nice.

 

 

 

 

 

Overall: Keep on using Paint (or whatever). Get used to the controls and making your own colors. Spend a little more time on your sigs. They don't jsut appear in a few hours. On my first pixel I personally spent almost 25 hours on the sig.

 

 

 

Best of luck.

To tell the thruth..?

 

NO.

 

 

 

I see you worked on perspective in the first, but not in the second. Shade both... clean your lines...Its everything flat! too flat! And most important: Learn to draw!

 

 

 

Oh, and spend more than 1 min doing your sigs. And why post and ask C/C for something that you dont even like?

 

 

 

 

 

PLease no flaming! :D

 

:lol: :lol:

No, it isnt good... yet. I dunno if it will get good, but heres C/C

 

How can the bench shadow be at his back when the sun is coming from the back and the tree shadow is in the front? Fix the light source, or one of the shadows... and those shadows need work up... serious workup.
