[WIP] My Pixel Pieces

on: July 14, 2011, 12:05:58 pm
Hello all,
My name is Giles Ruscoe, and i'm a 3D game artist, mainly for mobile/web devices. However, recently i've gotten very interested by pixel art and i've decided to give it a go :D

So, i thought i'd start with the basics (?) and do some boxes, these are my first pixel art attempts ever, not sure how well they look from a proffesional viewpoint though! They use 64 colours so far i believe, rather alot i guess.



Also felt like doing a sprite :) So here is a random lil' creature i came up with, 12 colours for this one.


All feedback good or bad is very much appreciated!

So this is a dumping grounds for your work?

@ your walk cycle, I think this should help you.

Yea, pretty much just somewhere to post my progress, get critiques on various pieces and show what i've been upto really:)

Thanks for the link, this is extremely useful, seems to me i had too much horizontal head movement and not enough curvature in the arms amoung other things.
Working on alot of other things atm for work, but i'll be sure to post a sprite update soon.
