Ahoy, folks. I just thought I'd use my first post to show off a hobby I took up aboot 4 months ago. =P I don't know if there are any experienced pixel-art makers here who could blow me out of the water, but maybe I'll at least get some fans or something, eh?
The first thing I ever drew was a can of Mountain Dew, which happened to be sitting on my desk at the time.

Next I just tried to make a bigger can of Mountain Dew. I didn't think the original had enough detail, so i tried a bigger version.

After that, I drew a juice box. It was pretty simple at first, so I also made an upgraded version of it.

Also, I got bored one day in my web page design class, so I started on an entirely new Juice Sprite from scratch.

Then I drew a sword. It's nothing special, but I don't think it's bad.

Then came my Modvark. For those who don't know, he's a character from an old computer game called Oddballz. I included a screenshot from the game so people know how he's meant to look.

One of my first really good drawings is a character from a kids' show I watched about 14 years ago. It was called The Littl' Bits (Or Belfy e Lillibit to most other countries) Anyway, the character's name is Lillabit... Or Belfy if you're anywhere but the U.S.

Bonus: The rainbow edition of Lillabit:

That one would have been my avatar for everything, but people would've thought I'm a girl. =P Fortunately, I found a good picture of the male character, and I made a pixel drawing of him. A shrunken version of his head is now my avatar. Now, the picture I found featured both of the main characters, so naturally I couldn't stop with just one of them. I made Willibit (or Lillibit) first, then moved on to Lillabit (or Belfy).

And because I got bored one night, another rainbow edition:

And last but not least, what I'm working on constantly. I intend for this to eventually become a really big pixel art city. When I'm bored, I just add a little bit at a time to this drawing. Right now I'm about finished with the city's park, the park's parking lot, a building, and that's about it.
