i wonder if the commercials will still run on tv

They do, in fact it was one I haven't seen before.

Oh thats just awesome Piet, thanks so much. I knew something felt off about the shooting.
I'm not so sure I'll make a game out of this since I'm sort of doing this just for fun, but who knows.

Also:

Yuck, I know. Its still very WIP.

Animating hair is pretty much the worst thing ever.

bang bang
             
And a rooptile because horses are lame c:

What about the fact that this is an english speaking site? There has to be a pretty huge language barrier for them.

A sheriff kind of dude tossing a gun in the air. Dunno why I made this tbh. Colors are slightly off.

The first spyro and crash games for me.

Love the masks, simple but unique designs.

AA and a funkier palette would make that more awesome.

Finally done with this piece. Been working on it forever.

You mean Atilus right?

And this one looks closer to the in game sprite, but I'll see what I can do, thanks.

Portrait Redux

Something is weird about this one...
I know you are trying to distance him from looking far too young, in fact you did pretty well, I guess.
But the hair... is a little, hmm, weird. It's like it doesn't fit his head, something like that. Maybe it's the hair on the side of his head...

I'm not seeing what you meam D:

Portrait Redux

woops forgot to say, I didn't make that font, its from MS word. I think I might use an un AAed version of it.

joshua: that looks awesome. I hope he can either float on those balloons or by using his umbrella.

well heres an update to my pixel art guy. I changed it so he seems a little more human. I think the armored helmet made it harder to connect with. trying to get that victorian rocketeer feel. does it reed that hes wearing a turtle neck?



P.s. he will have a steam powered backpack that the copter blades come out of. and at the moment he is missing arms. I am really having trouble with them.

No I couldn't tell he was wearing a turtle neck. Make his neck longer and thinner. I like the cartoonyness of it, though I wouldn't say its very victorian.

Oh and heres this mockup from my game, sorry if it stretches the page:


And The Dragon of Heaven and Hell (Owl, lion, dragon chimera) from the same game:

A simple fix;

The ground tile seems over AAed, looks kind of blurry. And is that some banding I see in his hair? Still cute though.

Even though this was probably meant to look cartoony, I suggest not using black outlines so much on the inside of the character, they are a little too strong.

Could use some highlights on the top.

Hey, what's wrong with hearts? >_>
Somehow it's a cliché I actually like...

Because it's used so often if can't even be cool retro hip anymore.

I disagree. While the colors are used nicely, I'm not liking the choice.

Which one do you mean?

Sorry, should have been more specific, I was referring to anubis'.
