i've been working on a mod but i did try to doodle some yesterday it was just very late at night..
but peep the secret
My main pc totally died so I tried to stream on an old laptop to do some practice and hang out with friends.. It was my first ever art stream and it was pretty successful even though I get nervous about how I do
Each of these had a lot of different amount of time spent depending on the request
Frog everhood for now because it's fun to get a little weird with it
Time spent: 1 hour
Maybe someday I'll make a custom battle
Made a placeholder tileset. Water is super basic but I'll see how it looks with some water shaders. The stone bricks also look super basic, but I'm hoping normal maps and some lighting will fix those up in-game. Tested putting some tiles side-by-side at the bottom.
Tomorrow I'll prob start sketching the area, and then work on the sprite assets needed to make the sketch a reality the next couple days after that!
Time Spent: 1 hour 30 minutes (specifically the second character)
For this one I tried to give Dedede a more solid pose and defined some lines but also pace myself in a way where I'm not trying too hard on just one part of the piece
So, with the 14 day challenge finished, planning to put the pixel skills to use in creating a very small game to stretch those pixel muscles. First step to that end will be the creation of some simple placeholder assets to be refined later.
Didn't have much time today, but I wanted to throw together a simple palette for some of the basic tiles that'll show up in the first area (some bright, peaceful ruins) to set the tone.
Colors correspond roughly to the grass, stones, water, and dirt. Over the next couple days, I'll throw together some tilesets and scenery props--perhaps a simple main character sprite.
Time: 20 minutes
This one was tough because trying to translate squid hair to pixel art is a bit strange
Fixing up the lines before felt nice but trying to get nice 'chaos' colors to work is also hard so if the next time i share this one it's probably gonna have a new palette LMAO
I also needed to stop at this point because I was starting to take up too much time working at this stage
But I still feel pretty good about it
Time spent: 2 hours 38 minutes
Today I was just working on one of those draw memes and pumped out some doodles to see where my process can improve and how long it takes for each one
lots of very big images... but next time ill work on something smaller
