    First attempt at pixel art style...

    edit 2:
    for size reference:
    Starbound has a 1:3 pixel to "stylised pixel" ratio. Each "pixel" you see on the reference character is IRL 3 x 3 pixels.

    So this is what the chainsword looks like done to starbound proportions.

    On a fluff note, this sword looks big, because it is, its not designed to be wielded by humans.

    I think the proportions are right. Pistols are about 0.75x the players height. Rifles are about 1.2x the players height. Swords/Axes are about 1.2~1.5x players height.
    Sound about right?

    I made these all this afternoon, except the chainsword (did that one yesterday). Although I suspect that is pretty slow, and they probably could look better. But this is my first time doing pixel art so... oh well.

    My primary field of expertise is programming and electronics. Art is outside of my skill palette. Never hurts to bust out the creativity once in a while though. :geek:

    That looks awesome, love the detail in the middle of the staff. The gradients on the spikes (well... it wouldnt be chaos without spikes :fusrodah: ) are really well done.

    Hah, this thread is awesome. :D I'd laugh so hard if someone modded Tyranids into the game. I can imagine just sitting, minding my own business on a planet when suddenly spore pods start raining from the sky. That would be epic (and scary).

    I'd love to see more Tyranid stuff, since they were my army of choice when I played.

    Thanks! Someone said I should add more contrast on the "shaft" of the staff so I did.
