Bonk Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 @Slime:> Lol, it's ugly as hell, if u like it, u must be blind…Unnecessary. If you're not helping out, don't insult his work.Back on topic, I quite like them too. The grass pallete is just right, but you need to work on your blending and shading on all of it, though.The grass tiles have a visible grid, and the colours are a little too different. Try less saturation and cover up the grid a little better.There's also what I believe to be leaves (Am I right?) on the floor in-between the trees. They need more rounded corners and some transition tiles.The trees are an odd colour. I'd darken them a little, then make them look bushier (Look at the way RPG Maker did their trees). The trunk is a little off-centre, and too dark.The little rocks are pretty cool. I'd make a couple of variations to avoid repetition. I'd also do some other styled grass tufts to avoid repetition there as well.Don't let people's words get to you. Keep working on your tilesets and I'm sure they'll be a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byson Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I must admit that sometimes it takes a little abruptness to entice the change required, although, sometimes, from a professional point of view, it is unnecessary.I love the vibrancy of the work, although, detail wise, it does need work. I'll say this, though, I love how soft and "bouncy" the grass tiles look.I agree with Bonk reagrding the darkening, and the trees look a little too much like ice lollies in my eyes. Look for some referential works regarding things like trees as so you can recreate, in your own way, the impression your plant life is offering.Otherwise, good start…..I look forward to seeing how you progress.

Niko Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Work on the transition from long grass to short grass, Don't use cell shading, this isn't runescape. They somehow pulled off the look for 8 years before changing it and had thousands of players regardless. You will not. I like how you actually have a defined light source, but cel shading sucks. Take your bushes for example, it looks like one solid color just light to dark. Bushes aren't like this, they have texture, they have leaves. Work on these things.Also have you ever seen a tree that had so much light reflecting off of it where half of the tree looked white to you? I don't think so. Food for thought.

Draken Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 really should redo the trees, the color is just terrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuu Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 @Slime:> Lol, it's ugly as hell, if u like it, u must be blind…And you say _I'm_ a prick with superiority complex.The color of the trees is much too bright, and they don't even have a tree's texture. Your trunks are just no. The grass that's not in a path is just weird looking, and you probably shouldn't fail at using gradients, or use gradients at all, for that matter.

Shaunfroggydog Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Very good stuff man. You've got your own style, let that style grow and more and more as you keep adding bits of your own unique ideas. The truth is it doesn't have to look real, it just has to look pleasing to the eye, and of course the graphics have to match. They do because you created them all, and they look smooth with your shading. Why make graphics just like VX? I say do it with your own unique style… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonk Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I did a couple of pixels dithering on your tree. IMO it looks a little nicer, but it's your call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murdoc Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The trees look better with the bubbly effect, although just adding more transitioning pixels like Bonk did is not a bad idea either. That rock ..I dunno.. It looks somewhat 3d but not in a way that matches the perspective of your tiles.Warning - while you were typing a new reply has been posted. You may wish to review your post.

Murdoc Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 @Domino_:> Yeah I accidently made it like 3d xDWhen youre making the tiles in this perspective.. just imagine how a rock would look if you were looking slightly from bottom (you could see the rock almost laying flat on its surface), but also slightly towards its top (you can see front and top but not the back, or sides). Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Stop adding gradients to everything. Life isn't made up of gradients. You need to add texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
