I may be fat, but you're ugly, and I can diet.

Of course it is happening inside your head, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?

Well, except for the road being green, you did a great job on this. =P

There are a few things I would recommend doing to really set this piece off:

1. Add some texture to the building, and do something with those windows in the middle, the look a little plain. And on the outline for the windows, extend the light outline a couple pixels to make the windows look less jagged.
2. Add some shadows.
3. Work on recycling your pallete a little more, by reusing colors you could get a piece like this down to around 60 colors I could imagine.

For your first big piece, you did a great job. Look forward to seeing more from you.

The color of the street is very odd, but the rest is cool. I'd be afraid to play tennis up there. :giggle: I agree with =ensellitis that the color palette could be reduced a little. Good work. :nod:

Yes! The road is green now i'm going to correct it and submit a grey road, I think it's because i worked on this during some nights and I put the screen very dark..and that detail escapes from my dark vision..lol
For the other suggestions thank you I'll use them in my nexts pixel art deviations or maybe a newer version of this one...REALLY THANKS ! ! !
