Jaiden Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Could use a little more variation in color I think underneath the actual grass detail if you catch my drift, but I like your style a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkcrow Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 aside the grid it doesnt look realistic at all. the grass blades look like dots you need to work more on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drummerpete Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Why are your tiles so big? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaiden Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 No no, now it's just brighter. Keep it that same green, but add a variation of greens under the "blades" of grass that you drew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukin Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 In the new one I can see a grid. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it that same green, but add a variation of greens under the "blades" of grass that you drew.Ah, okay I thought you meant the blades themselves so I added another blade color, i'll try tht now.Lukin, I stated that but decided I disliked the grass to even attempt a fix.

Ice - Fire Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 Thanks,Later this week I'll try my hand at different grass style, for now I'm just going to focus on objects other then terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 still needs more texture. Give it a tiny bit more contrast and It'll be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice - Fire Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 @Ytsorf:> still needs more texture. Give it a tiny bit more contrast and It'll be better.so what should have more light colors or dark colors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 neither, add more contrast between your colors. Make your lighter ones lighter and your darker ones darker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice - Fire Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 @Ytsorf:> neither, add more contrast between your colors. Make your lighter ones lighter and your darker ones darker.Okay, i'll start on that in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkcrow Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 i have said that again but… your texture is only dots not realistic at all try making weird shapes and stuff like that and see how it looks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaiden Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 @blkcrow:> i have said that again but… your texture is only dots not realistic at all try making weird shapes and stuff like that and see how it looksIt's not meant to be realistic. Let him keep his style, it's unique.It just needs a little bit of modification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkcrow Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 actually Jaiden is right it doesnt have to be realistic. i just think that texture is important when you want to make good pixel art but thats just my opinium. well i am not into this art stuffXP anyway you probably havent understand a thing i said with my crap englishbtw you are pretty good at eliminating the grid. overal i think you are prety good for a beginer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice - Fire Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 @Peteyyy:> Why are your tiles so big?as crazy as it may seem, I have them large as the system I'm going to use will tile the ground on a separate tiling system, at least that's the plan for now. if I decide this looks bad with the graphics and the size of the graphics ill change it, its to help further eliminate the grid by having walking animations and objects run on a smaller tiling system then the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nayte Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Hey man! Not sure what program you use, but I suggest a program (creatively!) called Tileset Maker.You can make the tiles flat then use an effect that switches them to iso tiles, and it also provides a 'colorize' effect which, when drafted lightly, can add a huge dynamic and seamless mend to your tiles :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
