Old lineart, new colors.

I re-did one of my old peices, experimenting with different colors and techniques, i like how this turned out.

 ok maybe i should say that i free transformed the windows in photoshop wtih auto antialiasing and colored reduced it in the end ... so trechnicaly this isnt pixelart...

doing this by hand would be quite skillful..

but everything else is just minor changes and i think u would be able to do so as well

But you know as well as i do yours is 10x better than mine, I'll just have to wait untill i can pull this thing off...

And those colors are amazing by the way!

 sry ^^ that wasnt my intention ;)

but cmon.... the edit is really basic... nothing to fancy... i just added windows for more details, some background gradient for more depths and simple casted shadows..

Onek, you just ruined my life... With an edit...

I don't think i can work on this anymore...

 i dont like the bubbly texture, also the contrast is very low...

where are the windows? ... maybe add some background....

heres an edit, maybe it helps.....

Oh I'm just kiddin' around! I appreciate your effort, xxmantis! Honestly, anyone that practices pixel art is cool with me.

Also though, this isn't actually isometric. Isometric pixel art refers to a faux 3D effect using a  constant angle, with no perspective diminishing. What we have here is basic 2-point. Which isn't a bad thing, btw.

Don't stop. Keeping submitting work!

The problem is, I'm no good with isometric pixelart! I really have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to isometric...

 I think Mathias may have said that a bit too harshly...

But this does seem a little dissapointing it could use some more time spend defining details and such. Maybe something like shading techniques could be better presented on the classic isometric cube or sphere...

I'm... Not exactly sure what you mean, the preview is better than the full peice?


user

First I've seen where the preview is better than the full peice. I guess that's an accomplishment in and of itself.
