Thanks miascugh! Yes, it's my own routine.. still some issues, but it will go in my paint program Pixe. The truecolour version is nicer still.

Hope it proves useful in some way. Good luck with the prints!

Very nice, but just wondering: no seats? A stylistic choice to keep it clean?

Surt: no seats yet. I wanted to make the characters first.. Man, I got caught up in tons of other stuff today, and won't have much time tomorrow either :/





Here's a try at using minimal AA (hood) but it was clear pretty soon that I prefer the 'natural' jaggies. Changed the colors to the shop's colors and made the backdrop for the second card, because the first attempts at getting the vague picture of the characters I had down to the canvas were rather uninspired.

edit: Oh, btw, I killed the backup of the progress anim again haha. PM crashed again, writing over the file before I thought of actually saving it anew.. :P

How about making it tilt over like it was turning, to add a little more flavor.

That wouldn't really work for the group-shot, though, that I'll hopefully finish tomorrow evening :)

Almost looks like a 3-D model, great work! On the 3/4th view, it's hard to see where one door ends and the other begins because the colors seem too close, at least on my monitor.

I myself prefer the jaggies too, gives it character. Can we expect more? :D

(I hope to see you get more back into pixeling, you have such a talent!)

Any chance we can get some photos of how it looks printed?
