Working on a mushroom ๐ character today! Plus a few others..
Took inspiration from pixel artist MortMort who is a legend and has some really great tutorials on YouTube.
In the name of true 16 Bit style I'm trying to limit my colours to a total of 15 + background. Not usually a problem for a simple sprite. Here I think I've gone over by 2-3 colours already, so it will require further refinement.
Mooar Pixel Art
I've decided that it's time to upgrade from paint.net to a program called Aseprite. A standard in the world of 2D sprite design, and especially popular with pixel artists. The program is 20 dollars, not bad if I get good use out of it which I'm sure I will.
I am technically unemployed right now, stupid shut down, so am being pretty careful with $. I imagine a cool world where my pixel art progress posts on a blockchain called Blurt could probably cover these costs.. Oh wait! Thanks for the support on these posts ๐
I have some other characters that I've started today that need refinement, but wanted to get on with some ideas..
These characters may end up in a project I'm working on that explores some of the darker corners of ones imagination.
Until next time..
