awesome stuff

everything looks great as usual!
especially loving the viking!

Looking good!

Dex, you really gotta start spriting more things that can be used for a practical purpose, like sprite sheets and stuff. You have the talent, just imagine what would happen if you posted just a Mario, Luigi, and basic enemies sheet, people would go crazy over the possibilities.

Not that the landscape stuff isn't good, of course, everything looks very nice overall c:

These are so sweet!

Did you use paint to sketch these?

I use a combo of Promotion and Paint to make my pixel arts, traditionally draw the ... drawings =), and I used drawr.net for that doodle-painting.

Also hey Shaw, haven't seen you around in forever. Then again I was gone for months! Thanks for all the comments you guys, I really appreciate it. Here's a few small updates--

WIPS:







I do believe I'm almost finished with the Space scene, so I'd really enjoy comments and critique for final touches etc.

You should focus more on line art since you use a lot of straight lines in areas where they are uneeded, and make some things have wonky proportions or odd perspectives which make little sense. You have been doing better on shading though.

You know, I forget how awesome you are at pixel art. Great job.

I remember that viking head, and now it's turned into this? Astonishing!
The snow scene is turning out nice too.
The space one, well I dont exactly like it like I said back on Pixelation a few months ago but it's some great pixelling man.

Those are cool

oh hey you made simple grass
DOES THIS MEAN WE CAN CONTINUE ON OUR THING

NO BECAUSE YOU'RE NEVER ON MSN OR AIM, BABE

thanks for all the comments you rowdy bunch of youngsters, you!

but i'm always on mfgg

if you're always on mfgg it shouldn't be that hard to press "sign in" on AIM

i mean if it's because someone on there bugs you or something just go invisible, haha

anyways;



changed the background and added some planets and fixed up some things, a few more updates and i'm finished

hello, shanks and I shall be making a wonderful game and this is what it will possibly look like

hurrah

http://pixeljoint.com/pixelart/45506.htm rates/favs appreciated!~

now THAT looks awesome

I hope that actually does become a game it looks really cool

Out of any of those, the top right looks the best since the background is good at least, not the pillars, but the mountains and clouds. You really need to pick new colors for red and orange, since I guess that is supposed to be a laser on the bottom right, but the colors are too faded to make it look like one, plus that little explosion effect looks pretty zany. The top left has some cool looking rocks, but they are tiling in a pretty gross manner. Some of the things on the top left also blend pretty closely with that background, although it could be much worse. Bottom left looks kind of okay, although the character pose looks a bit strange.

thanks, I understand your concern with the laser, but it's a placeholder and I'm gonna be busy this weekend and just wanted to get something posted D:

will work on the specified points once I have time though, thanks again

looks awesome

...delmore got banned? what on earth?! ;_;

either way..updates. all WIPS
