I made a clocktower inspired by Big Ben and a clocktower in a video game I like. This is just the prototype or whatever, so its not finished...

What are your suggestions, and how can I improve this?

Question: how do I add animation to the clock face or the flag at the top?

Are the words supposed to be green or blue or something?

You have to make the white background transparent.

Note 1 move the image down until the bottom corner of the ground has no space between it and the bottom of the image.

Note 2 is how the background should look when finished.

If you send the image to me by PM, I'll do it for you.

If you use the eraser now, it will become transparent when applied.

Then use the top color again when drawing.

As for removing the background, Novix is much quicker.

Expand the ground in the image. Or make the width and height 2. If you make the width and height 2, you may have to trim some of rhe ground on the left. Make sure the width in pixels of the image is 32, 64, 96, 128, etc.

Are the red lines cutting through the building intentional? I'm asking because the canvas is a size of 67 pixels wide, and I don't think that's right...
