Red Delicious
An attempt at realism and a good one at that! I love how the peel comes out of the top, the shading there is great. Also the lighting looks very nice and realistic. But most of all I like its shape. It really brings this image alive. The only thing I'm not so sure about is the dark outlining. And I think you should have added a bit of shading underneath the apple to finish the image, but that's about it (:
Great job at ms paint.
Thanks Whirlguy. When I said I'm quite patient, I must say that there's a point where I have to draw the line somewhere. I think some shading would have been nice, but then I'd be trying to draw a background for it, and adding all sorts of other details. I figured "I'll leave it hanging in white nothingness for now". You're better at that stuff than me. :)
I am indeed amazed
Specially when i read you made this form scratch on Ms Paint i went like "Whoa this guy has talent". certainly, saving it as a JPEG format not only killed the details with lots of undesirable artifacts and poor image compresion but also with thefact that i am still wondering how you managed to, in MSpaint- select and apply over 3.4k colors using only a simple red/white gradient. not saying that this is nowhere near being pixel art(or that doing stuff on MS paint doesnt turn it Pixel Art automatically neither, even when doing stuff on pixel art doesnt turn it Pixel Art automatically). but i'd reccomend that you either upload another version in a GIF/PNG format since they are well known for they quality-loss result when working pixel art images.
Thanks.
