Retro-ish Transition

[Harris6310]

Here are some retro-ish tiles that I have been working on.


What do you think?

Nice. The grass could use some polishing, it looks a bit tiled.. But not a problem if its filled out with tree's and plants.

The grass looks tiled, ya.  ALso, the grass on the bottom doesn't look very transitiony, it looks just like it stopped.  I like the irregularity of it though, good job.

Thanks, I haven't really done much pixel art before so I feel real proud of these tiles. xD
I'll try to sort the tiling problem, I don't really know how to tho.

I see what you mean. Maybe I should add a little darkening on the edge of the grass.

[Jeff]

to fix the tiling problem, if u used filters or noise then take the noise and redo it.  If you did it on your own, then idk… just try changing colors of the pixels with the colors from your pallette.  About the transitions, i'd say that darkening it would definitely help.

Should it be lighter?

lol @ grass giving block shadow.

[Harris6310]

It's very thick grass.

[Robin]

The way you've done it, it looks like a clear cut solid object.

[Harris6310]

How could I improve it?

[Robin]

By actually showing clumps of grass hanging over onto the dirt.

[Harris6310]

Still with the shadow? Maybe I should make it less thick.

[Anna Comnena]

Or break up the shadow in places. Some grass would hang over and be between the camera viewpoint and the shadow.

it's def. retro and my cup of tea,
keep me posted and put more work up.

[Shadowbane]

If you're new to tiling, you've done a fairly good job. They could use a little more work but I'd rate them 9/10 for your situation.

[Chakkra]

The grass and dirt are the same tile just recolored T_T

Fail.

Try a bit a of dithering with clumps of grass as Robin mentionned earlier. And maybe shade it differently.

I like it! I didnt really check the other posts..but make some grass hangover into the road a bit here and there, and make the bottom of the road..more..not flat and such.
