Pixel Art / Re: My first tree

Thanks for your comments Tycho Magnetic Anomaly! I had thought of shading the trunk, but feared that it'd end up looking too busy. But I like you edits :) I'm new to art in general (not just pixels), so any and all advice will be taken on board.

Your trees are spellbinding. Will have to slow down the time lapse to take notes :P.

I suspect the shading is pretty wonky, so critique is appreciated.

Thanks again MysteryMeat, really appreciate the suggestions. Here's a stab at your idea of taking a cut. Not really a blood orange anymore, but I'm not so fussed :P. (This was a loose reference).



(I'm not sure why, but my colours appear muted when posted here…).

Thanks for the feedback and links MysteryMeat. One tactic I read had to do with using fewer bands of colour. Are these any better in this regard?

Pixel Art / Blood Orange (first pixel art attempt)

Put this together on my phone (in Pixelable). Basically my first attempt at pixel art, so I could do with some criticism. :)

Thanks for the warm welcome :). That does make a lot of sense. I hadn't thought of using the same palette for depicting features as well as light/shadow. And since this game was originally for the brick Gameboy (one with the four-colour, pea-green palette), it makes double sense. (I haven't looked at the original sprite, but I wonder if they did something like a find and replace when porting to the Gameboy Colour, at least in part).

Will get on with pixelling then. :)

General Discussion / Link in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

Hi,

I'm new to the forums, and pixel art in general. I'd like to start with smaller sprites to get my feet wet, so am beginning to study earlier, more hardware restricted games.

Perhaps it's obvious, but I'm having a hard time figuring out the rationale behind some of the colouring in the Link sprite below—namely, why the colour for Link's tunic encroaches upon the bottom of his face and part of his ear; also, why his skin colour appears in parts of his tunic (e.g. the hat).



Regards,

Luth
