I have a very good eye for fine detail, and I used to do 16 bit sprites when I was young so I understand how you simulate smooth lines in very small pixel counts using shading, plus I've a good 'pick and peck' method,essentially I start with a rough outline and solid block colour centre, then set pencil to block 1 pixel at 20% opacity and just use black and white 'paint' to raise or lower each pixels shade, then narrow the shades to 8 using posterize to simplify it a bit, then a bit more pick n peck, and so on...
My main difficulty is knowing when it's finished.

thisi used to spend all my time designing sprites for video games that would never get made (multimedia fusion, anyone?) I think I'd have a spasm if I ever tried pixel art again, I spent so much time on that.
