Post by: Naso on February 02, 2006, 12:21:05 am
Hey guys, haven't been on in a long long time ( mmo's taken over my life @_@ ) and i decide to pixel some stuff from that game that would look kool in another game =D ( like Ragnarok since the items and characters are pixeled ) and this is what i got so far, some one told me that i could give the look to the feathers but thats going to take hella long so I'm sticking to the style that i have right now but i would like improvements on it and thats were you guys come in ^^ lol hope you like it because i really do =D

This is the font view of the helm, and this is the style that i want to stick to.

Compared to the front view, the side shots seem too swept back.

Perhaps a subtle square shadow fill between the eyes on the front view to suggest a forehead and snout above and below, then apply that shape to the others.

Dark colors in the feathers need a smoother transition in the ramp, but the general effect for the feathers is very good. The center feathers with the 1px vertical lines stand out a bit too much and make the mirroring more apparent. Excellent color choices and good design. Could use a body :)
