Wait a minute.  I have stalactites on tile 98 and mining cars in 63.  XD

not exactly stalactites :p


true dat! Maybe I'll make one tile to define/illustrate what I mean and maybe have an area with lots of it kinda like this is...real cave-ish

Hi again, 1st WIP for #19

Well isn't it supposed to be on the top of the sphere?

@Gecimen, are you just doing what is said to you without comprehension or do you understand the 'why' in comments directed at you...about the sphere, statue and anything else. We want you learning, so asking for explanations/questions is cool. My bad, eye on top 9.9

 I thought we all wanted it like that. )))

I think we're all are learning. Especially me.  

Updated entrance

I'm gonna make 32. Btw there are two 31 tiles in 2nd post but no 32(:

Could I have tile 8 kind sir?

Alright i'll work on it some more and wait and see, maybe move spots if I have to. 

Been trying to get some work in.. Having trouble with the lava (using Reo's style)



WIP

#21 nearly finished :)

I notced some color changes in my pic (indexed color thing) so I uploaded it again:



This is the correct one..

@Oke: Looks promising.. kutgw!

Ok

@dpixel, the 'shape' that stands out is inside the entrance door, the middle tone.
Zoom in on this and check the bricks and all the lines of the bricks. You have 16 colors, use them. Just because you are working on a 'brown' doesn't mean you are limited to the brown shades ;)
On the Anubis I think you can find a better combination of colors but me thinks contrast and definition is key on it. The ears are critical so outline them if you have to.


@oke, what a great idea! Dunno how far along you are but Alice is not quite isometric. Maybe the face and shoes are all that needs editing so it reads iso???

Another stab at #50. Can't yet figure out how the priest gets up there.
Maybe he'll hold a big Rupee too.


@ClubB, sorry bout that, main pic now includes new update.

Geez.  Nice edit jal.  I don't know if I should discouraged or motivated.  

I see what you mean about the bricks now, but I was matching the tile next to me.  Wouldn't that clash with Gecimen's bricks?
And the shaded side of the top entrance bricks, I tried to mimic hieroglyphics in this edit:


I'll have to get on my other monitor to view your Anubis edit.  It's hardly readable on the one I'm on now.  (I'm still at work)  And I don't see it's gold collar.


Edited by dpixel - 23 September 2010 at 6:02pm

@dpixel: if you do something mediocre I'll edit mine to match yours slowly

@Jal: Your anubis colors are extremely good but the ears look a bit like a mule's instead of a dog's. I think outlining may give it a too thick feeling.

WIP3 for tile #19


I've got a concern. How can I make the trident-ish thing that sticks out of the technodrome more seperated from the background without using an illogical coloring? I already painted it with blue and green but still it's a bit lost.

Sometimes things are just not possible. Seeing as how the claw/trident thing isn't adding much it could be best to remove it. There are 2 of those already on there and DrD may add one too so the viewers mind will see one there tho there isn't (as I said before, pixelling by suggestion is a skill too). I noticed that before and wondered how you were going to deal with that. That thing is 3:1 not 2:1.

Now you could move the lava towards the ghost ship and then darken that whole area back there to dark brown so the claw is all black with a highlight??? A benefit doing this is that the glow on the sphere will be again noticeable since it looks good.

so...I don't know, I often re-pixel whole areas just to see what works :|
