Open the editor ↗For a sea otter study, the broad muzzle and low waterline can carry the scene. This licensed illustration keeps the head above a simple oval of water instead of substituting a generic land otter sprite.

Keep the muzzle broad with distinct pale whisker pads and small rounded ears. Avoid reducing the head to a smooth oval with only a nose. The source view and crop should preserve these differences.
Include enough to show the waterline and floating posture, but keep the face large enough to read. A narrow oval of water can communicate the setting without sacrificing most of the square to background.
Place the nose and pale whisker pads above the darkest water band. Start with that shape in the pixel art maker.
