I used to be bad ngl This was me like 2-3 years ago? It wasn’t until I found out about custom palettes that I really began to do better pixel art. Something I like to do is define 2-3 colour ramps and use that for a sprite (including outlines, shadows, base tones) it’s very useful ![Dragon](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/b/bbeffc5e5f9d6f1b4f373c087456662ebf47b4c0.png) ![Fish pixel art](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/0/038e0d4edce5b60d175035a834e0df78a77064bb.png) ---
