Bumble Tuft: Ref

Because I can never help myself, here is an enlarged version of my Furcadia Spring Festival contest entry. This time it was to design a fae, and I went the ridiculously fluffy route. The crazy colors are Furcadia's 'Remapping' system, which is shown on the right. 

Pixel art is getting harder and harder for me. Not that it in general is challenging, but its difficult for me to see to compute what it is with all the squares. I end up leaning really close and zooming in ridiculously, something I don't normally do when I draw. I don't think its eyesight, i think its just visual confusion. And all that craning kills my neck and shoulders. 

Regardless, I am pleased with the results, and will probably have them live on my insect planet as an original species. They are an open species.
