Pixel Art / [WIP] theOccult
« on: February 22, 2007, 06:01:34 am »
I've been a lurker here for a bit, thought I'd post something.  This is my first try for the character for the game I'm starting work on.  [sarcasm]Woo.[/sarcasm]  Now, down to business.  I've been working on him for a bit and I'm totally frazzled (perhaps even vexed) as to how to shade his body.  By body I mean jacket.  I mean, he really isn't that strange hue of green... though his skin is white so that wouldn't be all that-- I digress.  I started, as you can see, to shade it like you see.  The problem is I don't want him like that.  I don't want nice flowing folds because I want him to retain his fairly basic shape, not too much detail.  I do, however, want to give him a fair bit of texture and form, not leave him looking so flat.  I'm also rather hesitant as far as his left arm goes.  I want him to end up being a fairly animated and dynamic sprite so please keep that in mind.  Anyway, crits and suggestion are mad welcome, and that doesn't mean I'll get mad at you.

I know that there was a 72h game design competition on pixelation.wayofthepixel.net/72 for a bit so I figured a few people around here might be interested in this.  Check it out.

Where did the 72 Hour Game Design Competition site go?  It is clearly no longer chilling around at http://pixel-arts.org/72/ as at least I noticed.  Are there plans for another anytime soon?  I'm totally pumped to do that all again but alas... it appears to have vanished of the face of the err... uh... the... the servers of the internet.  Well... it's 1am where I am... I best go sleep.  *stops pixelling*

Pixel Art / Welcome to my face... WIP

How am I doing?  Here's my first attempt at anything decent sized.  My palette is wacked atm, not emy hair isn't even close to that colour... especially shaved short.

Pixel Art / Robot character for game
« on: July 24, 2006, 01:33:00 am »
I'm a programmer writing a game and thought that I should try my hand at doing my own art for the first time.  This guy is the nameless "newcomer" that you play in the game.  He has almost no character and is ridiculously passive.  I wanted the minimalism in terms of colours to reflect that.  Anyway, how did I do?
