Pixel Art / Re: [C+C] Getting back into pixel art
« on: April 21, 2017, 03:23:18 pm »
thanks a lot for the edit MysteryMeat!

after some contemplating and a little more work and fiddling i think i will keep the highlights, even tho its not exactly all that minimalist anymore i do like it more with than without.



thanks so much for all the tips and critique, i really appreciate it! :)

tried to add window decals but frankly they looked stupid, i dunno how to do them :blind:

the top part was supposed to be smaller than the actual building with a narrow balcony and a small room that was plopped on top of the house at some point, i tried making its size a bit more readable and changed a couple things like the colour of the back wall and some decorative paneling for the balcony front

thanks MysteryMeat! yea minimalism turned out tougher than i thought heh


anyway i made some changes to it based on your suggestions, think the wood paneling works a lot better now, not sure about the windows, maybe theyre a bit empty now? the bottom one was supposed to show a little bit of whats inside but that didnt really work out

Pixel Art / [C+C] Getting back into pixel art

Hello! I'm trying to get back into pixel art and looking for some critique on how to improve since what little i knew about pixel art is long gone and forgotten  :blind:

made this little house inspired by artist Mateusz Urbanowicz watercolor series "Tokyo Storefronts"



i was looking to be a little minimalist but im thinking maybe thats just too boring but I'm not sure how to improve it without making it look too busy

thanks darvyy  :)

Kazuya Mochu i know what you mean with the same colors, tried to change the colors of the bomb and the clock, think i might go with the pink clock after all but for the bombs i dont really know, i like they grey one but its a bit too boring for the rest ~.~


id love to have more candy but i just cant really think of any anymore that dont look too much like the ones i already got, so if anyone got a suggestion for that id be happy to hear it :)

also worked a bit on the animations for the candy when you destroy them, no idea if thats any good to be honest since i hardly ever animate anything lol

thanks toshiomagic, i thought the dithering wouldnt work since i was aiming for it to be really shiney but i tried it anyway and it worked better than i expected and i dont think it lost a lot of the shiney feeling either


added some kind of gumball but im afraid its not very... readable :/

hello there  :)

i absolutely love bejeweled games of all sorts, dunno why but i can play that for hours... lol
anyway a while ago i decided to pixel one myself with some candy (couldnt really think of something better after my jewels were much fail haha)
but then i got stuck somewhere, i dont feel its finished at all and still missing something and probably still needs a bit more detailing but im just not sure where anymore, been staring at it for 2 days now figuring that out, doing some minor tweaks here and there

here it is btw


(the clock item is suppsed to refill the timerbar to the left if you destroy it along with 3 other candies, the bomb destroys all candies around it if its destroyed along with 3 other candies)
im grateful for any suggestions and critique  :)

Pixel Art / [WIP] Dragon
« on: November 09, 2007, 06:52:07 pm »
so ive been getting a little bored today of playing games the whole time and decided to pixel some and cause i need practice with curves (and cause ive just seen the terrible movie 'dragon wars' ) i decided to try a dragon.



but now i feel kinda blank and dont know what to add to it, it just looks pretty plain now, so any suggestions are welcome and of course any c+c on it so far :)

edit: heres a rough color version



currently trying out a few things for the scales to looks right
