Some of you might of seen that portrait I made for the challenge over at pixeljoint...It wasn't the best and I lost interest in it, but today I found some inspiration to use it in a mock up. I've decided to make this mockup to learn from the experience and for the fun of it. I've also decided that a small Story go with it.
So..
"A legend lives, where a pirate named Jimbard is more so feared than that skurvy bastard himself BLACKBEARD...
thats it for now:
Now for a few random things.
Pirate portrait:
This is now a platform to work from for the main character, called Jimbard
And to introduce the two characters of this mockup:
This is Dan: He's been made for the mockup.
=
And Jimbard:

I have set my self a colour limit of 16!!!! With all 16 in the actual portrait.
As far as the mock up goes, this is what I have so far:
And the animation.
Ok so. This mockup is based on Q&A adventure based game.
And so requires no run, jump or walk animation.
I also no that allot hasn't been defined yet, and is why I blobbed allot of it out, so no it won't be that ugly
Oh I also want you to know that I'm working in 100x100 blocks, as this whole thing is 300x300. So yeah you can see in the third part of the animation that I started working in the bottom right block.
Now What you can do for me -Above all things, what I need is encouragement.
-You can also talk about any of the above, whether it be the character or the pallet, or the mockup as a whole.
-I also like to see any edit or example of how to do something.
-I'd also like idea's, so if you think I should add anything that is kwl(barrels and lights and other things
)...please tell me as I might add it.
Well back to work:
