SOMETIMES I MAKE STUFF AND SOMETIMES IT ISN'T HORRIBLE.

I love pixelart. Every once in a while, I get a spark of inspiration and the powerful urge to make some myself. These phases are usually months in between, but I've produced a few decent things out of them.
The problem is, I'm not very good. I'm not posting this here to say HEY LOOK WHAT I MADE (but I guess I can do that too); there are plenty of people on this site who are really good at this sort of thing and I could use some criticism. Don't be afraid to knock me down a peg or just plain crush my soul.
A while ago, I was practicing faces. I loosely followed a tutorial on how to draw anime faces; it wasn't actually a pixelart tutorial, but it helped tremendously. I made a few shitty pieces, and then I made this. I just started making it without any direction, and it eventually turned into this... bald Tibetan kid. He's bald because I have no fucking clue how to draw hair.
I tried. It wasn't worth the agony.
I just finished this a few minutes ago. I looked at a few tutorials, including one that Ocean posted on GW eons ago, but didn't strictly follow any of them. Half of my brain likes it, the other half doesn't. I'm not sure what I was trying to do with the texture of the leaves, but it worked I guess. The stacked spheres with the kinda-cool shading effect thing was intentional.

The face is overall pretty good except I think the eyes are a little too close together (by anime standards at least.) The tree, apart from the cool shading effect, looks really odd. I think that the green should probably extend outward a little more and should be taller.
Other than that though, pretty good. A lot better than I can do T-T

Yeah the face is done really well, but the eyes could do with being a bit furthur apart.
The tree looks too much like three spheres stuck on a trunk, it doesn't look very realistic. i would redo the lighting and tweak the overall shape, but if that's what you were going for then it's cool :)
