Hi! I remember when I was an aspiring pixel artist just like you.

It helps to get yourself involved in some of the upper leveled communities, with veterans who can guide you.

BYOND has it's own pixel place, but I don't think it's used very often (I'd be weary of putting anything on there anway).

Try some of the following links, look for some pointers. Don't be afraid of harsh criticism:

I wasn't trying to make it like WOTS. I did it from my memory so it just accidently ended up like that.XD

Add transparency and lighten up your color choice there. I also realized your trying to make it look like wots kaiten.

hmmm OK, I see what your saying now.

It's too blue, it still stands out. Try using the color you useed for most of it (the teal cyan type color..and then darken it about 2-3 shades). You used a completely different blue.

You can also make it solid and then basically "Build it back" with the other colors (like the blue lines, just continue across the man only 2 shades darker).

He also doesn't have to be all spray-painty. You can make him solid, and as long as you darken each area it should look fine.

I'll make one in paint.

This is a man inside of a glassy/aura type area. I just put him into a cylinder-type object, take notice of the colors..etc. With mine, you could probably make it a shade or two darker and it'd look better. The trick is to not make it too dark.

Yea i just did. Thanks Icewarrior for that tip.

#5 Rip Nation:  

Do what Icewarrior said. It would give a shadow figure instead of it just being black

#4 Xion111:  

It's suppose to be a shadowy figure inside the kaiten. Well that's what i was going for anyways.

#3 IcewarriorX:  

use a darker color of the color it's supposed to be for the black discoman. Putting the black on it makes it look bad, try using a darker version of the blue you were working with.
