Artist's Comments

Pixelly phoenix. Phoenixel. Mwee. I can't remember the last time I made a scratch sprite before this, but hey.

So it's a phoenix with a messed up tail, dotty shading and no legs (not sure I can add them without ruining it; should I?). Apart from that, I kinda like how it turned out, although constructive criticism is always welcome.

Personally, I think it would have been nice if it had looked softer and more flowy while still being vivid, but considering how out of practice I am, this is damned good.

Enjoy?

i like the fact that it is a little rough - it makes me think of phoenix flames, and it also gives a feather-like texture. the tail feathers are a little strange; i think they might curve too much. i don't think adding the legs would really do anything to the picture unless you planned on making them some sort of focus, like with super-huge talons or something to that extent.

i really like the colours in this, and the chest feathers sticking out are a nice detail. i love that plume on its head. i can't do pixel art to save my life, so anything this interesting is deserving of a :+fav:. ^^

Hey, thanks. :)

You might be right about the tail feathers, although they looked okay on paper (I pixelled this by eye from a sketch I did). But yeah, I think the colours came out nicely, too.

Thank you very much for the comment and :+fav:! :D
