Wizard: In Progress

Here is preview on my second pixel art drawing.

There are obviously a lot of things I need to work on in it such as these:
  • Depth
  • The Wizard's Head
  • The rock
  • Presumably something holding the staff (arms)
  • To do the background/water
  • Wind

However, I think I should get some opinions, to see if I'm doing something deathly wrong with this before I progress.

I agree.

P.S. Hachi's right, is that a staff or a stiff? A wand or a wang?

The image is VERY DARK.
The staff looks like a wang.
He has a very blocky shape to him

I like the way you're going about your work - objective based. I'm afraid I can't say much until I see more of it.

Kinda looks like a gravestone with a stocking cap and some light hearted vandalism attached to it.
