You've got a cool vibe with the music, but I don't think you're doing enough to elevate the art. For all intents and purposes you just copying the pixels. Why not use mirroring to cut down the workload or show what's under neath the shield with layers? How about some stories about the NES limitations and what makes this sprite unique? You could use this video to draw a new pose that still looks like Link and I think it would make for much better content

Thanks for the feedback! This video is directly related to a video that premieres on my main channel @doogtoons tomorrow so I kept it simple. I appreciate the notes!

@@dougbresler I have no clue how this correlates to your Zelda secrets video but it was worth a good laugh
