updated mine, final:


@demon: thank you. not getting it totally, but it at least has a donkey

hey again,
have been on vacation for a while, pixelation changed sinced a last logged in :O

great edit stoven, helped a lot, thank you! concerning the issue of the bothering warmth in the back with cool values in the foreground i did the opposite and decided in favor of a cooler background - fits the metal suit much better and the roboter still stands out enough. anyway decided to finally call it finished, needa focus on new projects... and the puzzle-donkey

thanks for the feedback everyone!
the final version is here: http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/65435.htm?sec=date

hey people,

here are 2 pixels that are lying on my harddisk for way too long.
useful feedback very much appreciated. help me getting'em off my dump!

1st one is this pitiable, lost robot looking for charge.
it's pretty close to what i would call finished, so i'm not keen to do any *major* changes, but i'd still like to hear your suggestions on background color and the blinking.. as pixeljoint's forum wasn't of much help there :/ btw my first piece using grafx2's layer support.


(basic version)

batterie blinking issue


as above, but w/ additional blinking display (not sure if anyone will notice that). maybe i should additionally do some red reflections on his metal-suit

or
background darkening to give it some sort of pulsating feel, is that any good?


as above, but inverted. better? i've seen it so often i can't judge anymore

background palettes

.. ..



2nd one is something that evolved from a donkey-cart sketch and is untouched since early 2010.. but my fingers are itching to restart working on it again as soon as i finish some real constructions zones at work :/



palette does heavily suffer from playing around with the contrast between foreground and background (lots of color-doublettes here).. thus the first thing on my to-do list would be transferring fore- and background to layers and optimize the palette.

(and yes, i used parts of the background for my secret santa )


thanx,
tomic
