General Discussion / Bright Background Tiles, possible?
« on: November 18, 2011, 09:12:56 pm »
Hey guys, this is sort of a general sprite art theory question. When working with background and foreground tiles, I often find that I need to make background tiles a lot darker to make it clear what one can walk on and what one can't. Sometimes I want to make a background that is close to white though, say for a very clean plaster wall or painted concrete. I find that I can't actually make it very white because of the ambiguity that occurs between the background and foreground, which makes a lot of my backgrounds look fairly gray. Does anyone have any suggestions for this? I can post some examples if that would help, but I imagine many of you have dealt with this too. Thanks! :)

Pixel Art / [WIP] Tree Trunk
« on: April 03, 2011, 10:46:53 pm »
Hello all, this is my first time posting here, as I finally got the courage to post some of my stuff and release to the wolves as it were :)



This is a tree trunk I've been working on. It doesn't have a top and that is intentional. Trees have always been kind of intimidating for me, so this is my attempt to get past that little boundary. I'm not worrying about number of colors for the record, and right now it has 7. Critique away, I'm used to being critiqued and it does not intimidate me :P
