So after hours of p̶a̶i̶n̶ fun I’ve made my pixelart tree. Dunno who decided to draw trees first but he was truly mad. Or had over9000 spare hours.
P.S. Take that mother nature!

@bit_aspect You can save a lot of time and possibly even get a better result by NOT drawing every single leaf ;D
When people look at trees, they rarely perceive them as a bunch of individual leaves, so why should we depict them that way? Especially when working at a small size!
The shapes the leaves make up are more important than the individual leaves, so all you really need is to suggest a leafy texture and maybe have a few leaves drawn in detail. More than that runs the risk of being noisy.
@eishiya this is the best advice I got during last montgs of self studying! Thank you very much!
@bit_aspect Feel free to ping me if you get stuck on something! I like critiquing things and doing pixel art edits/draw-overs for people :D ...instead of doing my own work.
@eishiya Hey! what do you think about my last art? I've done my best to nail it, just wanna hear some critique from more experienced artist :)
@bit_aspect Looks good! Great colours, and it's an interesting, mysterious scene. I do have some crits though:
I think you could improve the composition by moving the ground and everything on it up so that the person is approximately 1/3 up the image (rule of thirds).
The light pixels near the top don't really look like anything to me. Are they meant to be a rimlight? a decorative element?
The tower looks rather dull being so grey. Why not reuse the lovely orange colours instead?
