Dont pillowshade. It looks terrible. (Pillowshading I mean)

The colors are a little too bright for me... But fix the shading.

I dunno what pillow shading is but I'll have a look, I haven't done much gfxing haha

[Tripl3D]

Its pretty much when you take a part of an item, and shade so that the light source is inwards.

Your shading is.. not good, it's AWESOME! Even though Tripl3D said that you shouldn't shade like that, in my opinion.. you should!

You're just like me, when I started doing gfx. The shapes are cool! But pillow shading should go poof, I even still have some mistakes with pillow shading without realizing it. Try shading with light on right side and dark on left. (Era's light source-Thank you Kamiroo)

It looks a little better, but I believe (Dont quote me) the Era light source is top left.
Everything shouldnt be shaded the same direction though.

Looks good, but you only really have to light the metal part, and swords are usually shaded down the middle.

The wood, looks pretty good.

Here is a quick crap edit. :P Im not perfect, but its the jist of it.
I just shortened it, and made everything not so wonky.
It looks good that way but...
Its just an example lol.
