Topic: Hi!!
Posted: 12 December 2008 at 9:57am

HI! I'm new to the forum and the site

I come here to show this WIP of mine
I have been working on it for 2 nights already!
Just wanted a few opinions.

PS: All logos were hand made by me...(well, they're property of several companies, but the isometric view was made by me)

The structure of the house was based on this tutorial in my first night. But after a few hours i felt confident and started making the sign(GAME), the pacman, the space invader and the logos(Nintendo, SEGA, and Atari).....what do you think of it?

Looks ok....you look like you have a nack for iso :)
colours are nice especially for a first?

well keep looking at tutorials every now and then as you learn new things every time!(this is something allot of begginers don't do and after a year or two the end up like Mr greenraven :kwl but not an overall good pixel artist :P No offence dude)

oh and patients is key! I'm still busy with something I did 5 days ago :P

There extremely good!
i don't like iso that much(cause I suck at it :P and havent really tried). Maybe somebody with iso knowledge could tell you more.

I also suggest that you look at the "hall of fame" gallery and download the pic and look closely how those guys did things. So yeah others work is always a good reference as long as your making your own concept and they both look nothing alike.

Edit:
Why not play with this some more and make your own building :) be creative as at the moment it is a picture done looking at a tutorial with a few edits and things added. So I'm not asking, I'm demanding that you show your creativity :P . I think other members would also like to see what you can think of.

practice practice practice.(oh its nice to see other 16 year olds on here :) )

Logos are the best part of this piece, indeed ;) But don't dwell on logos, learn from Jalonso how to improve you iso skill in every aspects :)

Keep up the good work.

i'm not really 16.....i'm a just and a half away of turning 17 =p lol
Iso rocks.........glad you like the logos!
I have in mind an idea.......it's kinda of a continuation of this project! basically a ginarmous building, the concept is like this game house, but the logos and the signs are are more and trying to make them better too! I'll practice =P

I've also just moments ago, redone the space invader.now it's better!

I think its pretty good. The only thing for me that makes this kinda weak is the color choices. This much saturation of colors does not seem to feel right for the subject matter. It may however just be the roof being too 'loud'.

I think your surfaces could really use some texture.

I would suggest improving on your first piece before moving to something so large. I agree with the need for more texture. Imperfections in the walls (cracks, dirt, etc). Also the pac man could use some depth. Right now it looks too paper thin and not very realistic for the depth of a sign. Simply making it as thick as the GAME sign would look better. I like the small piece much better it has more character to it. Keep up the good work.

This second is far too big to be very interesting, me thinks.
You have to keep scale in mind with everything you draw.
Are the cars in this world as wide as a door? o.O

I'm going to reamke it........not so small, but not as big as this LIDL lol. basically an entire remake, but before that i wanted to try something else, because i really want to my Game House to be really great, so.......i think i'll delay it untili get some more experience...^_^
