Well then, since I'm going to sprite Starbound related stuff, might as well dump whatever I feel like here! Hopefully I can use these in game at some point :/ Credits to EpsilonEagle256 & Ghostar for the resources!
Oh i remember these from the "What hair do you want to see in game?" thread, really nice sprites dude, also i really like the weapons, though the top one reminds me a tiny bit of the Tesla cannon from Fallout 3/New Vegas.
Not very long! Give or take 10-20 minutes each if I have a design in mind. Though with the badge designs, had to really think out how it would relate to the reasons for awarding them. [EDIT: 1/23/13] Added new robot heads and gun parts!
It usually takes me about 30-45 min to make a ton of sprites like that (im thinking of making my own sprites and weapons for starbound), if you have any tips I'll be more than happy to incorporate it in my own work
Got anything to show? For now, I'd suggest having a concrete idea as to what to draw/sprite; forcing yourself to create something never ends in a good result.
I think the body needs to be outlined better, such that the arm behind it can stand out more; don't be afraid of expanding it beyond the base sprite! And it's not a requirement to outline every detail, think about how those spikes(?) stick out of the armor, and from there how they transition from the parent body part. The diagonal shading on the chest part doesn't give me a concrete shape, is it diagonally ribbed? Design wise, I feel that the armor colors are too uniform; it's semi hard to tell individual pieces from each other, might need to play with secondary colors more as an example; For your black armored Solatarians, you could use a lighter grey to make certain parts stand out better, slightly less darker boots? Slightly less darker forearm guards? Etc. How does the shoulder armor on your guys work? Are they just large frontal plates? I'd suggest making your own "sprite dump" thread for more feedback! --- Created a silo: probably going to be used for a formal way of storing liquids or as a glorified water dispenser.
Yea I might need to pay more attention to shading and colors, but thanks for telling me what to fix I might also open my own thread soon
WIP Custom dropship. I'm slightly bothered by the fact that we don't really know what other kinds of ships are going to be ingame and how they will work
