Little ship thing

on: March 27, 2011, 12:10:12 am
I was bored so i made this thing.

It probably could use better colours, but is there anything else that needs work? It's meant to be a player ship in an arena-style shooter.

I can't tell what some of the parts are. Is that a cockpit window in the middle? The brown parts make me think they're made of wood. It'd be totally cool if they were, though! I'd increase contrast overall.

I think less is more at this scale. too many colors/details/shading/aa is crammed in right now, imo, which confuses the general pixel clusters by breaking them up. high contrast also helps readability on tiny sprites.

update. increased both brightness and contrast, made everything less pointlessly detailed(sort of).

edit:oh, the thing in the middle was originally tacked on as a last-thought type thing without any idea of what it was supposed to be. it is now a cockpit, yeah.

edit junior: boy i am forgetful. yes the brown parts ARE wood.
