Pixel Art / Re: C&C for starrmazer art.

@hakwen Thank you for the kind words! Your tone was fine, do not worry.

And the artistry is totally there in all of his animation!
The intentionality is in the grossing out, and doesn't bother me. The misogyny is unprocessed in my opinion. At best I think it's meant as "ironic" misogyny (and rape, and gendered violence, and homophobia), which is actually worse.

In any case thank you everyone for the awesome replies.

Hawken take it from me. It's just black outlines around the whole of the sprite, it is not selout. It only looks like that because of the layer effects.

I sense there's a note of "you can't emulate this master of pixelart". I assure you that's not it. Banding is rampant in Jeremie's sprite work and even background work, it's very good but I owe it to myself to see if it can be better. I'm trying to find a way around it while retaining Don Thacker's (not Jeremie's) preferred style. And yes, that's a difficult thing.

Truckers delight has fantastic animation. It is NSFW and also full of misogyny.

yes, but my question is do you prefer your corrected version, or the no-outline version?

Some jagginess is inevitable, when you have to outline the whole sprite. But yes this is sloppy work just to get an opinion on whether losing the outlines is good or bad.

Thank you everyone.

So all in all, black outlines around and inside the sprites are missed by some. And of course more people in the shot.
My immediate concern is this: Do the lack of black outlines make the new rendition less adult, less "anime"?

So I need help. These are two versions of the graphics for StarrMazer, for which I'm lead artist.
The animated gif is my take and the other one is the work of the previous (awesome) artist.






Could I get some C&C please? Better? Worse? Weird? Not edgy enough? Too cartoony? Too Disney? The same? Is the pixeling worse? Do you prefer black outlines?

I owe a lot to pixelation, been a lurker for years. Hi, I'm Christina
