Like last time I suppose ^^
Devious rating 4/5 plus 1 'cause the character is such a pinup xD
Vision 4/5
Originality 3/5
Technique 4/5
Impact 3/5
Actually to do honest I prefer the chun-li one but it's a personal point of view. The ironing of the beads is quite good for ironed part. I guess you ironed the two side wich I prefer to not when it's not a commission. When it's for me I like to see beads as beads in their normal form xD
The choices is quite good. My main complaint would maybe be the hair like I think some colors may have been replaced with other but that's always a point of choices and tastes and actually that don't matter that much. It's morrigan we can clearly see that ^^
For the skin I feel like some beads cool have been more pinkish rather than brownish. She got a weird outfit even for a succubus. I guess that put a point down in my personal rating.
Apart of these two facts the choices on the legs, boots, wings are quite good.
Actually I'm gonna to link to a guy that you may have seen the Morrigan perler beads and you can compare what you like on him and yours.
8bitcraft.com/sprites/darkstal…
he do a btter job with the colors of her skins in wich part of her body. For the hair meh feel like can be improve like yours even if I cannot say wich colors maybe have been replaced in the end.
Her hair is blue/green like some waters in the caraïbes so yeah pretty difficult to reproduce that in perler beads actually.

Hmm.
I'm fine with your personal point of view. To be honest, making that Morrigan Aensland bead sprite, if I were to make another one for a client(seeing that I haven't touched bead art for a month), I can easily make the sprite within 1 hour and 30 minutes. Plus, I couldn't necessarily make the original Darkstalkers bead sprite of Morrigan Aensland. The one made here is actually based off of her sprite from Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo. As for the ironing/melting of the beads, I used one of those large peg boards to make this piece. And apparently, the former bead artist that had last used it, accidentally broke it in certain places. I was still useable, but I had to be very careful of ironing the beads within the broken areas of that large peg board. When I do medium to large pieces of pixel art, most of the time I end up using the large peg board rather than the small interlocking peg boards.
Thank you for the color choices on this pixel art. Morrigan's hair in this piece alone was a bit of a challenge. When I first made this one originally, I almost had no more bright green Perler beads. Based off the sprite from the link, I try to make it as closely accurate as possible. Even though I'm slightly colorblind, I was to able to figure what colors were used for her hair.
Now the skin for Morrigan is questionable at this point. The other bead artist I was working with at the time of making this pixel art, has told me to used the peach Perler beads for the skin of any video game character. In her(the other bead artist) eyes, the peach Perler beads are the skin. In my eyes, they were still peach color. I can tell the difference between peach and skin Perler beads. As for the legs and boots on Morrigan, I didn't have those colors like the one in the link you've provided me, so I pretty much improvised.
The colors used in this sprite are as follows:
Black, Dark Grey, Grey, White, Raspberry(dark pinkish red, I'm guessing), Plum(purple pink), Lavender(light purple), Purple, Yellow, Peach, Dark Brown, Light Brown, Tan, Rust, Parrot Green(normal green), Bright Green and Lime Green

Ah you're color blind that cannot be helpful to actually know wich is better for each sprite color. Man' this suck even more than you don't do perler beads in an entire month. I remeber I take like two month breaks just before summer and going back so much painful to re set everything about the choices of colors and such.

Yeah. Being colorblind when it comes to making bead art does give me a disadvantage.
Still, I do want to continue making bead art. By the way, you could critique the bead art in the link below.

I feel like this may help if I critique every single one but man' my planning schedule is pretty full with this convention incoming so I may take a look after that for the critique i'm talking about it. Also what did you think of my versus perler beads that I put recently ? Is is a good idea. Also the pokemon badge I can do another one but is this worth. My sister was thinking about perler beads jewerly for the badge instead of that.

Did you feel I sould do more of the versus style or just focus on selling one by one ? Because me two I feel like the pokemon badges may not be worth.
I can make a Solid Snake versus MetaKnight and also a Cammy versus M.Bison
