Hi I'm Danny and I come from Italy, I'm a musician, programmer and a game designer primarily, but in my spare time I like to work on some pixel art!
This is the result of some hours (yes, hours! because i'm not that good! :D ) spent drawing: 
Please let me know what you think and give me some advices! :) Tell me if you know some good pixel art tutorials or books that can help me. |

there's banding on the sprites that should be removed. more contrast in the colors used on the sprites could also help. I'd vary the type of stars used, so that they aren't just dots and + signs (should be some decent references in the gallery). Also think about making some stars less bright (so make some that use a color that is darker than pure white). the outline on the moon is unnecessary, I'd remove it and then use AA to fix some of the jaggies and make it blend more smoothly into the background. the highlight on the hill isn't working, there's no reason for it not to extend to the border of the hill, or further toward the characters. Also, what is the hill made of, why is it dark grey? And lastly, thing about adding a horizon in the bottom right. As far as tutorials go, here's the http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299 - in-house special. |
