Think I've about captured the right vibe for this throne room scene. Started out too bright and welcoming, as I want it to feel daunting, maybe even frightening. The projection wasn't really working for me, so I totally redid everything using one point perspective. I rarely use actual perspective with my pixel art because it's hard to avoid unpleasant pixel rhythms in the perspective lines, also called jaggies. However, if you place things just right you can maintain clean ratios. Shadows need more work. I've hardly got started with the details. Still a ways to go, but I think think the composition and mood have finally clicked.
