Pixel Art / [C+C] Snowy forest
« on: December 16, 2015, 10:55:06 am »
Hi there,

It's been a while since my last post here, but I need your help once more :)

Here is my last work, first time I work on a full background.



It took me 20 days to produce this picture (~10 days for snow only), and I really need some criticism about it.
I didn't put any limit on color numbers (except on character sprite), since it's totally static. It's thought to be used with parallax effect.

- I didn't know where to start with, so I heavily borrowed art style from a Card Saga Wars screenshot (http://www.servimg.com/view/12179176/189).

- I consider 20 days is way too much for my ongoing project (We are 2 people, only me for the whole graphics).

---Should I consider reduce my "exigence" ?
---Is 20 days a "normal time" for producing a background or is it just insane for a first time ?
---Should I employ other tech like, a 3d texture on floor but keep 2d elements / draw background (no pixel art)?
---Is there any methodology on creating background ?

- I tried to make a beautiful starry sky but I couldn't achieve what I had in mind.
There should be color variation (like a "Milky Way" effect), but everything I tried (based mostly on dithering tech) seemed "off".
Do you have any exemple of such scenery on a large sky ?

Thank you for reading :)

Pixel Art Feature Chest / GR#196 - OC Fighting Sprite - Animation
« on: June 11, 2014, 09:58:58 am »
Hi everyone ! I've been browsing this forum for a while,  now I decided to take the plunge and request your advices for my pixel works. :)

So, this is my very first "serious" sprite. It's intended to be used later in a kind of 2d side-scrolling game.



Maybe it's obvious or not, but I take my inspiration from AbyssWolf (http://abysswolf.deviantart.com/), mainly for character proportion and skin color.

I have to make it clear : this character is a girl. When I show this sprite to some people around me, they say it's not evident and it's a problem for me : I don't know what to change to improve this point :(

I began working on animation too :

Idle :               Punch :
   

Thank you for reading :) If you have any comments or suggestions, post here, I need them !
