Day 6

---

So I did absolutely b$$$er all yesterday. I finished work for the week, got the beer out and then hopped onto Destiny 2. So not very productive art wise, but sometimes you just need to sit back and relax.

Day 7

---

Today is another story. I've set sometime aside to do some art and maybe even a bit of programming, so should be a VERY productive day for the most part. So far today I've worked mostly on the Bear, to mostly look more like a bear. Also taking what Chonky Pixel said into consideration too, the bear was looking very flat when really he's a bit fat, so hopefully he's looking a bit beartter.<-- ignore me, I think I'm hilarious, probably not haha.


I actually uploaded this and have immediately made changes, his legs were a bit too long, so he's now 1 pixel shorter.  Also main changes to how the lower part of his garment drapes. He will inevitably be changing constantly. Also I've names him Bearny Roark, again subject to change. If he has a partner I'd probably call her Ursa M Roark.

Day 7 - part 2

---

Made some small changes to Bearny.
I'm still not happy with the wood background, so I will rework that at some point. I don't know, I wanted to create perspective, so that the room looks rounder, but I don't know how to do that. I might just simplify it. Anyway, Instead of getting bogged down by that I've moved on to making a chimney. For the most part I think it works   

Day 4

---

Thanks Chonky Pixel. I think you're right. I've lowered the contrast in the background and even desaturated the colours slightly. Still needs more work so I'll fiddle around with it some more as I go. All part of the process.

I've been wanting to do more pixel art for a while, but I procrastinate a hell of a lot. I know I haven't got the time to sink into a large project right now, so I've decided to do a mini challenge for myself.

So here's the challenge.
-Make at least 1 tile a day.
-Keep it simple! ( I always try to go big and then never finish what I'm working on )
-Choose a colour palette as a base, but don't confine to its limitations, be flexible where needed.

The most important thing for me is to enjoy what I'm creating. So I've decided to make a small fantasy mockup of a house interior with 1 Character in it ( A bear  ).

Here's the colour pallet I chose: LOSPEC500

Day 1

---

Here's a basic floor tile. Its comprised of 3 separate 16x16px tiles that in turn tile as a set. I don't think I'll make variations of this as I'm happy for the mock up to look like there is a noticeable pattern in places. So yeah, its just some really simple floor boards on top of a joist. Initially I was going to split the joist into segments, but that doesn't make sense, so its just one continuous long slab of wood.

Here's how it looks in the mockup so far. The dimensions of the mockup are subject change, I might make it vertically longer.

Kind of a wacky wood grain patten, but I kinda like it so I'm going to stick with it for now. Also I know the challenge is 1 tile a day, but I might find that I'm in the mood to do more, so I probably will make more than 1 tile on some days.

Always happy for any feedback btw.

Day 2

---

Got up bright and early to started on the wall today before I have start the day job. The wall is made up of 5 tiles for the pattern and 1 tile for the bottom of the wall.



And the mockup so far

It's not the best thing in the world, but it probably will change as I find my feet. Next I'll work on a door. I might even do that this evening.

I love a well done minimal style. And you've done a great job so far. I'm not sure you'll get to much feedback about the art, its mostly to a high standard, sure there might be a few minor inconsistencies here and there, but I think you'll naturally iron them out through the process of creating your game.
