welcome to my topic.

I've began work on the graphics to this game of mine, so far it mostly just a background and a tileset. and i will provide you all with a download link to my graphics so far. also i wanted to make this the character about 35 pixels in height. but i wasn't good enough to pull it off. i have provided a sketch of it below. i don't like the eyes that are on the sketch but it gives you a good idea of what it would ideally look like.

My Graphics:




listed in order the graphics above are: forest background(bg) at night, forest bg in day, grass tiles for the game so far. i still need to do a bit of work for the tiles that is about 10 mins of work so i need to do more work on it other then that it seems all good. but in the grass tiles ignore the bricks and door and all that it was for a castle level i decided not to go on with.

here is a screenshot of the graphics in use:


now if anyone can help with the character that would be great otherwise all comments and feedback on my existing designs are welcome. this was has a total of like 3 or 4 colors so far. and looks pretty good in my opinion.

i posted the spikes here because i new what the problem was already i just couldn't fix it...

here is something i have tried to continue with i accidently swaped the colors around on the background so its back to front. and you can see my spikes and character as i wanted it to be an alien. but as you can see it is to small and doesn't really catch your attention at all. so if you guys wish to help me out a bit then please do, this was like 2 hours of work. and i've been trying to fix my problem for like an additional hour but faiiled miserably.


also my spikes don't fit in with the style i know! but i can't improve it any more and i make it to fit the style.

so if you guys want to help me some more feel free to other wise i guess its some long hours hoping what ever i do actually works.

i feel the same way, but i just suck at sseperating everything from everything else.
that is why i asked for premade, but even that is causing me problems. maybe me and good art just weren't suppose to happen...ahh well at least nobody can't say i haven't tried. lol i have been trying to achieve this and great quality for about 3 years now.

ohh is ee. so the rectangle on the top shows them all listed by color. and thye one on the right shows more color values on one of the above rectangles?

and then one down the bottom shows then listed in colors so we can shaw in what ever direction i want to go. but for what one of the above rectanges does it show both of them?

i'm sorry if this is seeming a bit repedative i'm just having trouble getting my head around it
