blazer Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I think I have improved on my methods and shading a lot since the last one I did. Please comment and give any advice and tips you can think of. Unlike my first one, this pic took about 7 hours all up. I redid some of the shading many times until it looked half decent. This is only my 2nd serious attempt at a pixel sig. Thanks. Rate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknownmasterofnothing Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Could use more contrast on the armour. As it's a metal type object. Its nice comprared to other people's tries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazer Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 Ok, thanks. My prototypes on paper look much better, I just have trouble doing them on the computer. Also, Holidays are coming up for me so I will have lot's of time to practice. Anyone got any ideas on what to draw next or what to practice on?

Korla Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 i think it needs more contrast. much more. you can barely se that you used 2 different colours for the skin, let alone 11, like you did use. i think 5 is the absolute max you should use, 3 could be enough. you have to dither them abit, make them blend into each other, that was they will get a different look, a more pixel look if you will, which suits this type of pic better. so, less colours, maybe use 2 with the most difference from the normal skin colour to do the shading. i do think this shows potential, though, hence my reply :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTSnyper Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 My thoughts: draw the chain body ending with a merge into the skin. THAT would look sick ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazer Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 Hmmm, that could be a little difficult. Korla, thanks for the comment. I will keep that in mind in my next one. I made the pic into a sig for me now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
