Ah, thanks for the advice. I admit to my shame that I have been far to hesitant in trying new things.
I'm going to resprite these guys along your guidelines.   :)

Pixel Art / Mario-inspired Sprites
« on: March 12, 2010, 03:05:05 pm »
I've been meaning to get back into spriting after a half year long break. Do note that my only spriting experience is with Picture Wars
(a sprite-based forum game), so the quality of my sprites is on the low side.
Nevertheless, I wanted to show these sprites, which were the last ones I made before my break, to garner some tips and advice before
I start again.

It's basically just a basic Goomba-like enemy, with a helmet and a wing upgrade. There's also a mage character (my favourite sprite) and
a pipe.

I know what Eve looks like. And yes, I made her green since I had difficulties making the white visible enough.
The sprite was just going to be a nod to Wall-e in a bigger army though.
And reference images are in most cases not really helpful since I'm mostly spriting own ideas for PW-armies.

With my exams done, I'm getting back into picture wars, and by extent, back into spriting. I've found out about this site via a few fellow
Picture Wars members and thought it might be a good place to improve my very modest spriting skills.
Guess I'll best start off by showing some of my earlier works.


Some basic bug-like aliens.


Eve-styled sprite and two other robots.


These are the latest sprites I made somewhere in november. They're based on Mario enemies. I think these are
some of my best sprites.

My main problems have been
a) palette / colour selections. Selecting colours that work well together and provide a readable sprite.
b) Large objects, mainly adding volume to them.


Oh, and finally a few Orkish ships, to give an example of some of my bigger sprites.

I still have a lot to learn spriting wise (being only very mediocre even on pw yet), but I'm gonna take all your criticism to heart. So fire away.  ;)
