Description
Whew. Took me all week to do this. I've gotten critique thrown at me from all ends, MFGG, Pixelation, etc, and I've tried to take it all into consideration while making this.It's essentially a mushroom house high in the sky- something I doodled at school the other day. I decided to pixel it, and do my best AND use my best technique and try out several dithering patterns, as well as texture. This is the result, I hope you like it!
Here's a WIP animation for those interested! [link]

I love your smooth and life-like shading and this is absolutely my favorite piece in your gallery, hence I'm faving this.
My only critique would be that flower, which in itself is cute, but it seems so, well, cartoonish and rather simple compared to the rest of the picture. It's no eyesore, just different.

Yeah the flower was thrown in at the last second :/
I don't think it ruins it though, as you said!

Exactly, I wouldn't say it ruins the picture, it just stands out a bit.
A great piece nevertheless!

Dear Dex,
In all honesty i don't think this deserved a dd, much less hall of fame at pj
(psst i'm aware you feel the need to stroke your ego by submitting something and making all of your buttbuddies uprate it and fav it and suggest it for best piece of work ever, but that still doesn't change the fact that this is half decent at best)
Love,
1up.

Dear 1up,
Just because Shawn is your friend and you feel the need to agree with his assholish self, fine! I'd love to see YOUR hall-of-fame piece, because you TOTALLY don't have one. I really don't give a mother fucking shit about your opinion, because LOOK AT THE 480 ABOVE YOUR NOSE. If you don't like it, I really don't give a shit, but according to some of the best pixel-artists I've talked to, IT WAS. So leave me the fuck alone if you don't like it.
Have a nice day,
Dex.

Uh
I barely talk to Shawn. Is it honestly that hard for you to believe that *gasp* I'M CAPABLE OF THINKING FOR MYSELF 
And I've said it to some of the most idiotic self absorbed talentless fags I've ever met, so saying it to a somewhat talented self absorbed fag won't make this lose it's meaning
What you are is the typical thick headed idiot that can't seem to get it through his head that what he's made need fixing, but little old you just wont take anything other than gentle strokes of the tongue up your anus. The second someone gives you actual advice, you come up with excuses about how they're wrong, or how someone else said it looks fine so it's automatically perfect.
Grow up, and learn that just because something isn't a compliment or an asslick, that doesn't mean you can ignore it.

Except here there are NO critiques on the piece
I mentioned on MFGG I didn't want to work on it anymore and that I would in the future, just not now
And you don't need to suddenly become a total asshole just because you don't thinks something uberamazing got featured

Yes because my past 2 years of being a complete dick are nothing compared to those comments
I had just started started being a dick out of nowhere today even though I hadnt ever stopped since that point 2 years ago.
