Found an old concept I did for an imaginary game (I think) on a photobucket I had like.. 2009 or something. It's cool to see I've barely got better since then haha. Sorry for the lovely quality on the enviros; guess I didn't know you shouldn't save pixels in lovely jpeg-format.

Yeah sometimes I'm shockingly bad at foreshortening. It's the kind of thing I'm sometimes successful at slightly fixing in the pixel stage, and sometimes I'm destroying the sketch right there

Those aren't the best examples, but I couldn't find the thread I was looking for where Mjaulm posted some of his pixel art. The use of line and shadow feels similar to me, but I guess it's just me.

Could be, I tweet p much everything I ever do! idk much about technical stuff but I basically just have AA turned off in Stencyl so any tweak or tween simply doesn't use AA.

well in photoshop you'd achieve that by having it set to nearest neighbor.  (my in-game cards are scaled up and then rotated so it looks less extreme than that but yeah, same idea)

I was learning how to use grids/build things from them/place isometric sprites. DISCOVERY: there is something primally satisfying about a perfectly aligned slab of blocks.

finally getting around to some character designs for my little zelda-ish type game I like the green... like A LOT, but I do worry its just not varied against the background:  yellow for comparison I thought about red, but since I do the non-outline type art I'd like to avoid looking like hyper light drifter if I can help it

Coldrice posted:finally getting around to some character designs for my little zelda-ish type game I think I'd agree that the yellow stands out much better, but I'm actually not super crazy about that green in the first one to begin with- it looks like it's the exact same color as the water if I'm correct? If so, and that leads to weird floaty heads I'd say you definitely probably wanna go with the yellow or just a very lime green. Though I don't know how/if you're doing a limited palette thing again like you did for Interstellaria. Either way, I've been loving the gifs of this I've been seeing through Twitter and whatnot!

Coldrice posted:finally getting around to some character designs for my little zelda-ish type game I really like both, green and yellow both look great. The yellow stands out better though yeah. (And kinda reminds me of Mario's cape, but not in an infringing way  )How about Orange? Or Dark Blue? Or Cyan? Red does contrast well with green, and your game looks primarily green. But I get wanting to avoid Hyper Light's scheme. Maybe like a deep Burgundy?

The yellow cape looks really nice and is visually distinct, and green is a played-out color for adventurers anyway.

My suggestion is to change saturations. Bring the saturation DOWN on the grass, and bring it UP on the cloaks. High saturation is a cue to the human eye that an object is in the foreground.

ya I would mess with the color/saturation/hue balance. Even if there weren't readability problems, using bright neon colors as background is a bad idea. quick & turned out a bit darker then I intended (dark photoshop shell > white forum, alas) but hopefully this helps

Pixel Dailies are a good way to practice. Try using a pre-existing palette, you'll get a better distribution of colour values and they can help you focus on the form, blocking and linework.

His face seems flat, don't be afraid to go nuts with lightening/darkening based on the light source. And try curving the spine a bit.

Back in the day, systems could only display a subset of colors at a time, but they should still choose a lot of different colors, no? Maybe CGA had 16 preset, but video game consoles could do more. Zaphod42 posted:Love this, straight outta blight town! ...yup it is! I need to practice figure drawing more. What kind of color should I use? He's not wearing a shirt really. It's 32x32 so it is hard. Manslaughter posted:His face seems flat, don't be afraid to go nuts with lightening/darkening based on the light source. And try curving the spine a bit. Thanks - I'll try some spine curvature when I work on bipedal sprites going forward. Too many colors gets distracting and weird looking, sometimes I don't add enough for shading. Light source would be above and to the left. I actually did notice the flatness, but when I tried adding more shading around the bottom of the mask it looked weird.
