 Trying to sprite the bad company grenade. It looks good so far but I will definable need some CC. I'm trying to put like a fiery lightsourse to the right hand side but keep the regular lightsource (sun) on the upper left hand corner. Im also having trouble with the top metal part of the grenade and trying to get that rugged metallic look. Im also trying to give the smilie face a scratchy texture. And need to get some good dull-ish colors. So anyways CC will be greatly appreciated Edit:  Finished it but c+c is still welcome. |

I see several issues. Perspective: the grenade is seen front level, the handle from above right. Contrast: the grenade has more than handle and smiley, because of the black outlines. This contrast is independent from shading which is not the way to make light obvious, as your intention is. Think more of how shades and highlights would affect those volumes. If you didn't, looking at references would help a lot. There is no difference of contrast and direction between your 2 lightsources. Is the 'fiery' light orange or pink? gotta choose! http://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/39713.htm - Have a look at this piece for metal textures. |
