rate my work /10 please. its my 1st try at this sort of thing. i think i may have added too many details. oo could you tell me what you think is happening in the siggy please? i want to know if people will see it and go "wth is that?" thanks all

Well to me it is not bad for a first try(I like it), but you should try to add shading.Also most of the lines are just straight and the people look block shaped if you get what I mean. And in the sig I can tell he is casting entangle or bind right?
I give 7/10 for first try .

edit: ok i tryed to do shading and my verdict is, i cant shade in paint...... waaaay too hard.....

There is no problem with using MS paint. And I don't understand how shading is hard.

As for the pixel, it's not bad...but it's not great either. 5/10

i think its realy good for first i willl give 8/10. its a picture of some ranger binding a mage.

Lines:
done mostly with the line tool, try to stick to the pencil, unless you know how to use line and curve tool effectively.
try to eliminate outlines.
CLEAN YOUR LINES! keep them 1 pixel thick in all places.
colours:
appears to be default paint colours, try using your own.
too saturated, try using desaturated colours for a more realistic look.
no shading, try at least basic shading.
text:
blends too well, hard to read, no real need for it to be soo big, and not a good font choice.

overall, you need to improve vastly, a good first try. practice using the pencil tool for shading and lines, aswell as choosing better colours.

I think it's pretty far from a pixel. The only thing that counts as a pixel in there is linework. And even that is just the line tool.

Browse through that topic, it will help tonnes.

Pixelling takes time and effort to get to the product. It doesn't look like you spent enough time here.

Good points:
The general idea and layout is not bad actually.
You can tell whats going on (apart from which spell it is. But i don't know that binding looks like anyways)

Improve on:
Clean up your lines!
It's good to take away the black lines and replace them with colour. So it looks more realistic and less cartoony
SHADE & DITHER!

Nice pixel, I do however think that some things in it could use a little work such as the green... stuff... coming out of his hands and just a few other minor tweaks in the overall image. And possible use a different font and color because in my forum skin, it is difficult to read the font, possible becuase of the color, or maybe the resolution you have it set at.

ok thank you evryone for your help. as of late my mom has made it so i cant realy use my computer at all.... so i will get to this asap. once again, thank you evryone!

It's pretty good but i think that the lines are so straight. maybe you should use the thicker lines. 6/10
