[WIP][C&C] Little Help - Shack Tiles

on: August 23, 2015, 02:07:27 am

Having a bit of difficulty with these.  Any assistance would be very much appreciated.  Having particular difficulty with the roof.

Think I'm getting a grip on it.  C&C still welcome.

Well first of all I just wanna say that siding is delicious, it "pops" just right.
My idea was 1) shift the highlight on each wave 1px to the left, consistent with the side shadows, and 2) shift the waves on the bottom to match the actual flow of the metal. They're opposite right now.

I don't think that wall and roof go together well in terms of consistency.

The wall uses a very flat shaded ooutline-heavy style with a lot of color identity
The roof uses more realistic details, more colors, less contrast and no outline

I think the problem here is a clash of styles.

I like that newest version actually. I disagree with Cyangmou for once.

I agree with this. I couldn't quite put my finger on "why" it looked off, but now that I read this, I think it is exactly why I thought something was off about the piece.

I haven't checked back here in a few days.  Definitely agree with the criticism here to some extent.
Let me post an in game screenshot of everything tiled together.
