Itsarock!!

The rock is kind short but whatever...think of this as my triumphant non-sword return.

Quite nice, although it would certainly need a tileset to support it.

It's rather nice, I suggest u remove that black line on the first part of the rock that juts up and extend the bottom part of it further.

Which part? You mean on the right part that's like a black line at a 90 degree angle?

Nice, though the grass is really, really dark. And the contrast between the green and the gray is too subtle, I honestly through that the lightest shade of gray on the rock was moss and grass growing over the rock.

Instead of using pure black, lighten that part up a bit and it would look awesome :o

Reminds me of something you'd see in the older Command and Conquer games for some reason. Looks nice.

The grass is basically a place holder, I probably should have spent more time on it however...

Still not happy with the grass...probably should spend some more time on it sometime, although the focus isn't on the grass in the blank spaces I wanted to fill it in a bit, the grass around the dirt and the rock are how I want them.

Looks ok, unless I'm not looking at it correctly I'm not seeing much shading. That could just be my angle though

Grass/dirt is way too dark. You really need to lighten things up a bit.

I tried to make some grass to fill in real quick but soon it just became a game of "How many colors can you fit in one place which I commonly do. (Overdo)

Your original is quite nice, imo. I have a sort of classical opinion on these things, though.

Depends on what you're basing this statement. The area you live in tends to dictate the type of grass you have. For example, grass in the northeastern United States is much thinner comparably than that offered in places like Florida, where the higher quality grasses tend to be so thick that footprints are not left when walking on them.

lol, my comment wasn't intended to discuss color, only thickness. I think in the right setting, either could be fine for the most part.

It's too thick in proportion of what would be the average sized sprite. I mean... sure, it COULD be possible, but that doesn't always mean it looks best in pixel art.

Yeah the grass is pretty much crap now. If i had continued the original pattern it may have been effective, and I'm not sure about the dirt because people have had mixed feelings about it.
