Whoa, man.

This is awesome.
I don't know why, but something about this really makes me want to do something similar, maybe even a game in this style. Really simple but really powerful.

I love the contrast between the pixels and the texture, it really catches the eye!

I love your unique style man! Keep it up. Your art has a really cool common theme to it.

Hey, sorry for taking so long to reply! I blow up the pixel art in potatoshop using Image > Image size... with the interpolation set to 'nearest neighbour.' For this one I basically just scanned in some calico in high-res. Then I just placed it as a smart object on top of the pixel art setting its blending mode to multiply.

Hope that helps, my friend, and thanks for the kind words!

Oh thankyou! It's actually a piece of calico I scanned in.

the paper effect works very nicely here, I was just wondering why you decided to make the lighting/shading from the center of the image because it was an interesting choice. And, the building was a really nice addition to the landscape, maybe a few smaller ones would compliment the picture even more

brontosaurus In reply to SakuraCherrie [2009-12-25 23:31:27 +0000 UTC]

At first they were separate pictures. But then I wondered what it'd look like if I joined them together. And then I discovered it created some interesting lighting. So it was a lucky mistake. It might not be the most realistic lighting, but then it is pixel art. Hehe....

I'm currently plying around with little cities at the moment. Might not change this picture, but it's a good suggestion.

Thanks for the great comment! And hope you had a merry christmas! Ho, ho, ho....

This reminds me so much of old Sierra AGI games...
Oh the nostalgia!

Oh, and the paper effect rocks too!

Uh oh, you're going to start getting me excited about making a game again...

I was just thinking again about trying a new mechanic for the climbing game. Argh, too many ideas!

Dear, dear, dear. It is a great burden to be filled with so many ideas.

The texture here really makes this work... fine use of negative space...

Thanks mate. I wasn't quite sure about the composition though - something about it seems a little off balance.

I really like your style, sorta like simple shading pixels with some verticallity?
