The lips are really off-putting for me  

oh I thought those were rolls of fat


Either way I commend your ambition Paladin.
Most people here, including myself, just do small sized pixel art which is much easier and still get praised for it. Some also work on iServers where they barely have to do anything besides make a hat once in a while.

Besides furniture hats and holiday items what do you guys make?
Not saying you do or don't do anything just curious.  

I think that the chair looks okay (not going to call it fantastic because it isn't) but it completely clashes with the rest of Delteria's style. I feel like Sandz and Zerith have done loads of good work, but if you guys continue to add stuff like this that completely counters it, it's just going to ruin the whole thing. Try to have your graphics people study the current styles and themes around the server and then attempt to mimic it.

This is a bad example, but this chair looks very nice. It's clearly much nicer than any chair I've seen on a Graal server. But would it look good if you put it on a Graal server? Absolutely not. The Graal chairs look far better in that respect. Be sure to keep things looking consistent, because, to me, the new bench made by Paladin does not look good. Instead, it makes it look messy and makes it painfully obvious that the graphics are made by people with extremely varying styles and abilities.

EDIT: I've just been told that the "bench" is actually a frog. Doesn't change my opinion on it.  

I think it looks great.
Better than I could do.

This guy speaks too much wisdom. It honestly looks to me (with your first attempt) that you've ignored the consistency of Delteria's GFX. I can only assume Sandz and Zerith had a whole theme that they pretty locked down on when making graphics. They don't do large hue shifts and a lot of their colors are soft toned. Most of the beauty also lies in the line art, even though they do not apply AA. I believe you are on the right step Paladin in the sense that your applying a certain delterian "creativity" to your art. But you and your team must truly stick to how things are made in Delteria. USE their color palette, hell, even copy and edit already existing or unfinished work.

What a lot of servers lack is consistency in the style of graphics (due mostly to the fact of constant oncoming and outgoing GFX artists). Don't ruin what the previous Delt artists started (not saying you did).

S & Z's style is simple and easy, but challenging in its quality. I'm just concerned for Delteria. Especially when the GFX Dept hold a lot of weight when it comes to appeasing the common mass of players and their always incessent criticism.

No worries.  

The frog looks great. Why complain?
