wow u actually made a thread dood

Ye sure did  

Maybe we should make examples of what it could look like  

Or what's wrong with it  

Think its too iconic for graal to change.  

So upon recent popular demand I've started remaking the noob head. I've decided to remake it using the same kind of art style and technique as the original creator. Progress:

I see you've free-handed the outline. This is an amazing start as it will give the head a much more natural feel, making the game more immersive. Your lack of hue shifting is a plus too, as it would confuse a lot of players with lack of brain capacity when your skin color turns to red.

A couple major problems

You seem to have a lack of banding. This is a problem. Banding helps to bring out every detail in pixel art. It really shows where everything like shading is. Masking all your hard work isn't a good idea.

Your light source seems to be on top. This is another problem with our playerbase. They don't comprehend lightsources, so pillowshading is the better route. It will allow you to give beautiful shadows to every area of the head.

I hope this CC helps you. Good luck!

Thank you for pointing all that out, I don't know how I didn't notice before! I've done some revising and even added some dithering so I can make the transition from cream to red a little easier without adding an extra color that would only confuse players.

What do you think?
