I want to thank Blink for helping me out on this one.

Now, as for the room, I still need to add

1. People

2. Bartender

3. Objects behind the bar.

4. Some more stuff near the door to make it more interesting.

5. Maybe some things on the walls.

Any crits are welcome and wanted.

-EDIT-

Heres an edit so far.

What do ya'll think I should add?

Im not really one to crit on isometric pixel art, but I'll give you my thoughts as requested.

The bar looks very pretty! Nicely done. It will definately look better with those 5 things you mentioned, but try not to make it TOO crowded.

A couple of things:

-It looks like theres a one pixel error in the top corner seat. Its a picky thing, but it caught my attention all the same.

- Something looked odd, and it took me a while to figure it BUT I think what it was was the inconsistant outline between the doors and the rest of the furniture and stuff in the room. The door seems to be the only thing without the heavy black outline.

I'd also wonder what this iso would look like with a bit of anti-aliasing, something I havent seen in many iso pixels.

Nice work though!

I think it's supposed to look like that, so the seats look a bit more curved...

Anyway, nice work so far!

i do however agree that the doors should have a black outline.
and i dont know what direction your going for but it might not
look that bad crowded with people, it might ive it a crowded bar
feeling. anyways just an idea nice so far!

Actually, im going to redo basically the entire piece. Blink sent me a PM saying this isn't really my style, its his. He made an example for me, and if you look at his and mine, it looks like I just changed some of the colors. I'm going to put some soft textures in there and repost.

it's all good in the hood Garage. I just think that you got the texture pattern thing going on and you need to try and incorporate it into a cleaner room. Didn't wanna steal your thunder dude.

What I do like that you added were the little stools and cabinet area. looks dope yo

Great room dude, I just love the texturing.

I hope you don't mind me making a small edit without the black outlines:


Can't wait to see it with those little peeps, and don't to forget to add some booze to the shelves behind the bar.

Keep it up.

Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

I embrace my desire

and still be a human.

Thanks for the edit, but the black outlines seem to give it more depth. Your edit looks pretty cool, but I think i'm gonna stick with mine. Great job though.

I really like this!! I find it very classy and i like the colors you chose :) If I were to reccomend anything, it would be to add maybe a poster, or a paiting on one of the walls just to add a more lively feeling. But besides that its great :) good job

Yeah, that's a good idea... And perhaps you could also add some neon sign saying CAFE or BAR or something?

That's too bad.  You've got a nice start here... if you just added some peeps and a couple things on the wall you'd be set.

Ya, but those couple of things on the wall were boring, haha.

I might do a more exciting room later. Not sure.

Sedge, I basically stopped pixeling for now, so, I don't think I'll be finishing this anytime soon. Who knows, maybe in the future, but for now, I don't see it happening.
