Pixel Art / Re: [wip] Wolf - where am I going wrong? (updated)

Well, after working a bit with my trusty wolf calender on my desk in front of me I now realize just how horrifying my first attempt really was. lol

This isn't quite finished (no aa and such), but hopefully it's a bit better.

Eh, just goes to show you can't always work without a reference even if you think you remember what something looks like. :P

Thanks everyone. I think I'll be doing a complete redraw of this thing when I feel up to it. Been having a bit of a shoulder ache, so it might be a day or so.

Ok, thanks for the advice. Yeah I'll work on that back end a bit more.

Ok, I went back and worked on it a bit.



Is this better? I straightened the front legs, tried to curve the back a bit more, thickened the mane slightly, and added a few more highlights in the parts of the fur that are supposed to be light.

Thanks. :)

Ok, something about this just doesn't look right to me.



Any suggestions?

Well, I suppose I'd better post here.

You can call me squirrel. I've only been pixeling for about two weeks, but I've been doing more traditional art since I was 17 (over half a decade... I feel old.).


But anyways, here's me (well, as close as I can get so far):

Thanks for the tips,Tremulant. Yeah, I'll definitely work on cutting back my color count. As far as hue shifting, I really should have been doing that already with as much as I've had it drilled into me for traditional art. Must've had my brain strapped on backwards when I started spriting.
That edit really makes my slimy guy much better.  :y:


[edit]

Ok, I went back and worked on my squirrelborg sprite to reduce the color count. I think it's at 10 colors now. That's all Paintshop was picking up anyways.



Now that I think of it, I could probably just cut out the two pixels of green on the gun. They don't seem to even show up.

Pixel Art / Intro and random sprites
« on: February 23, 2007, 02:10:12 pm »
Hi everyone, this is my first post so I thought I'd introduce myself. I've just recently taken up pixel art after years of traditional media, so I'm a bit clueless about it. I've been lurking here for about a week now, and I've picked up quite a bit from reading through the wip threads.

Anyways, I thought I'd post some random sprites I made for c&c.



Anything obvious that I'm doing wrong? Or things that could be better?
