critique my pixel art pls? | updated OP

Uhm

What the hell is antialiasing ;-;

googling it tho. i've seen it before, but never really bothered to look it up.

its using certain colours to make a 'smoother' effect/blend colours. its different than dithering tho.

Oh ;v; Still don't get it ;-; //sigh//

Dithering is a huge pain in the ass and idk i don't understand it

Pixel art is just not for me v - v
 
I've got no idea what antialiasing/dithering is as well xD
But I like the first one better! Your pixels are really cute. Would definitely buy c:
 
all the old paintings on the tomb they do the sand dance dont you know
if they move too quick oh whey oh theyre falling down like a domino

Whoops....never dreamed that saying I'd purchase one as a compliment would be discouraged. My bad.

well i do appreciate it but it doesnt help me understand how to make it look nicer. guess i wasnt clear on that, ill put it in op then.
 
For the big one since I really like the 3D look, I'd pay 700+. I am not a fan of the bounce but I love the blink animation. Again, I love how you shaded it BC it looks 3D, so great job on that.

For the critique:
Idk this is just a personal thing, but the orange line around the skin mixed with a darker color kind of bothers me, since it blends together and looks fuzzyish but besides that, there's nothing else. I am not entirely sure how to fix it bc with the way i pixel I use grey around the skin or I blend the original skin line + hair line colors together and use that to outline the skin.

After looking more closely, I like hairstyle 2 better. 1 gives off the fuzzy look I mentioned earlier.

(Mini ones) I'd try defining the outside lines more. But then again ik some people who don't like that, so I dunno.

i like making outside lines darker but it doesnt seem to work for hair. the first one is supposed to look shiny rather than fussy but again, poor palette choices? i really should brush up on that.

ill see how different i can make the hair for the miku one, the flatness of it all kinda bothers me.

I love the hair shading on the first one! I don't think it's because of a poor palette choice, but I don't have much experience with that, so ;-; Aah sorry I'm no help at all... just wanna let you know that I definitely prefer this shading method than the other because the hair of the 2nd pixel looks kinda a bit like "plastic" and not like real hair, idk how I should express it better..

the original brown hair is what makes it hard to see the shading, is what i meant by poor palette choice huheu. its easier to see with the pink/yellow. now that i look at it, the right side shading looks rougher than the left bits. hm.
i do like the first hair shading better even tho its harder to do.
 
ok i changed the shading on mikus hair + removed bouncing

ik9US+


think ill use it as my dA avatar, lel
 
I like the first hair style a lot more, I think it brightens up the whole thing. Also I prefer the blink to bouncing a lot, I could see certain things would look nice bouncing but not everything, maybe even a slower bouncing? I don't know...
