Pixel Art / Re: [WIP][C+C] Help with NES sprite!

Thanks for the reply Jelly! I really like your rendition of the sprite, especially the pallet.
I'm going to read up on that link you sent and keep practicing so that I can maybe try uploading a new version of the sprite in a few weeks.

(Also, I realized I mentioned an "8th" frame when there are only 7  :-X )

Pixel Art / [WIP][C+C] Help with NES sprite!
« on: May 04, 2017, 07:12:46 pm »
Oh boy, first C+C! Exciting and scary!

I have been messing with pixel art for about a week now, and this is the first big thing I have made. It's the sprite sheet for the main character of a game idea of mine. I made it in Pyxel Edit using the NES preset palette. The main character is a skeleton-miner with a pickaxe and mining helmet. I used a Megaman sprite sheet as reference, but did not copy anything. Frames 1 and 2 are an idle animation, frames 2 thru 7 are the running animation, and frame 8 is the jumping animation.





Overall, I thought it was a decent first attempt at an NES-style sprite, but my main concerns are with the arm-and-leg-swinging in the running animation. Does it look "natural?"

Any general tips or improvements would be appreciated.  :)

Hey everyone!

I've been lurking on Pixelation as a guest for a few days now, but I decided it was time to finally register and become a 'real' person!

Just in the last week, I have started dabbling in the realm of pixel art, and although I am still very new and unskilled, I have found it to be a very satisfying and enjoyable way of expressing my ideas. I registered on the forum because I have a desire to become a better pixel artist (actually just artist in general), so I figured the best way to improve was to just dive right in and start making and posting what I come up with!

I am looking forward to learning everything I can and to becoming a part of the community!  :)
