Title: [C+C] Paracorn
Post by: spencerflem on September 20, 2015, 08:17:44 pm
This is my first serious pixel art project, the paracorn

Its supposed to be a french acorn, hopefully you could tell :)
I plan on adding a parachute animation to is as soon as I can, but animating seems much harder and I'm hoping to get the base image as polished as possible first. The inspiration for this was the flappy bird / swing copter style as this is hopefully going to end up in a similar style game assuming I can figure out LibGDX.

Maybe shade the top part a bit acorn like :D
Looks good so far

Totally agree with you there. Thats a problem I've been thinking about for a bit. I'm a little shaky on how to give the top a rough acorny texture without making it stick out from the rest of the image. Here's a take I just tried with a more random splotching. What do you think of the change?

I think it looks more like a acorn but I'm not too sure if it is general better ^^
