i really like that design adarias - is that going to be pixeled?
thanks

sorta. it's going to be a feature of some of the in-game environments. I also want to talk to Fil about the possibility of cut scenes that throw about static images using scrolling and scaling....... i don't have the time for full-on animation. to keep with the rest of the game, those *may* end up pixelled, but they may also end up drawn. and that's only if we get to them.....
EDIT - i shouldnt derail this topic, but here is the pixel base for a Carrack, one of the medium ships you'll find yourself taking in the game

the ship that i drew is approx. 60 feet long, a measly 15 tiles for all that detail

so twill be a bit difficult i should thing to cram that all in there if i don't pure pixel the whole thing without tiles (or most of it)
Believe it or not, that is 100ft in the game - almost 150% the size of the Nina or the Pinta! (they of course were the smaller caravels. the carrack santa maria weighed in at 115 ft, dwarfing mine by quite a bit - not to mention the several additional decks - mine has only 2 decks and a cabin)
