Speed's Pixel Cluster v2.0

[SassySnivy]

Thanks for the feedback as always! <3

So I got inspired by all the awesome entries in this week's pixel art section of WAR.

I originally made this Charmeleon because I wanted to make a video that basically shows you how I make a basic pixel-over to maybe help people who are unsure of how things work.
Well, I ended up scrapping that. Today I came back to this and figured out that I didn't like the direction it was going...so I turned it into this:

I wanted to take things a step further, so I added a lot of extra muscle-tone to Charmeleon's body, as well as making its fire the primary light source. If you notice the orange and yellow flecks in the eyes, well, that's just Charmeleon's eyes reflecting its tail flame.

15 colors, not including transparency. I had a hell of a good time playing with the shading in this.
