there is a light sorce if you look close its only light and its is shaded like that because its ment to take in the light and displace and absorb it so it can be kind of stealth while not in full stealth ..in full stealth mode everything is shut down and there is no red or anything on it ....i will do a version of this while its stealthed and post it .. the dark navy blue main body paint absorbs light and raidar redering most the highlights mute except on certain parts :) and i have worked on it a tiny bit more with the leg sizes to give it a little bit more depth .. i will be swapping this one over now :) ty for feed back.. my pixel art always has a story i should explain it in the description that is my bad :) and i also haven't been doing it for long and take long gaps inbetween doing things in time i can only get better :)
Agreed Vikri. Although detail kicks ass, a bit of volume is welcome here.
Nice! I can tell that youve put a lot of effort into the details but the entire piece is pillow-shaded (missing a light-source)
I suggest you focus on improving shading and imitating 3D in 2D
Interesting concept!
