[challenge entry] I'm currently pixellarting a mini me


It's actually going to be an animation in the end, it's for deviantart as an icon.

I thought I'd finished the hat, but now I'm thinking I havn't.

Any tips? I'm not confident on the colouring.

# it looks decent like that
there's no reason to add unnecessary detail on something tiny and pixelly

# Maybe change the patterning on the rim so it warps with the shape.
Although to be honest it doesn't really matter that much as the actually shape and shading is still really well done.

Add a nose possibly. Only thing I could think of.

# *feels warm*
Now I shall rest on your bosom and read love poetry.

At first I was afraid,
I was petrified.
Kept thinking I could never live,
without you by my side....

# i would say
get rid of the hair highlights just below the brim, as it should probably be in shadow.

it looks like the shadow on the brim should go to the back of the hat instead of straight to the left, either that or the hat should be shaded more gradually across the hat

otherwise, woo!
