Description Heres what I came up with for pixel moon, im not going to submit it though as its a completely different scale to all other submissions and would look odd although id like to hear what you think, please let me know of your thoughts on this plus some tips or hints from pixel artists on how I could improve this would be great, hope to hear from someone soon!

EDIT: I have toned down those hard black edges as seen in the scene as noticed by *eqadromos-dxp and *bgr , hopefully the new version looks better!

Loved it since it existed and it just deserves fave out of work, but also out of it's layout and strong detail. I love this one, Ryan, it's superb, simply superb.

Faboo texture work there my man..
I really like the colors used though if I had but one critisism it would be the bunker(?) n the forground lacks depth.. just the interior could be darker. Other than that imho.. magnifique! Kudos..

As the propietor of PixelMoon is feel obligated to comment on this fine piece.

Indeed it's too small, so I encourage you too make it in the right scale.

This deviation is very nice. Textures and shading are very nice and accurate. The colors are well chosen and the detail is precise. You should keep this precision if/when you make a bigger version.

The only suggestion i have is to make the front outline of the boxes in the craters light and not black. They look very different from the outlines you used for the buildings.

In all: well done! Keep at it!

Thankyou very much for the comment and the time to help me out, although im not really into pixel art, I saw pixel moon and some other peoples work and thought ahh well I may aswell have a bash at it, the scale completely passed me while i was creating this but if I was to make it larger I could use several tiles instead of the 1?

bgr In reply to bmx3ry [2004-10-21 08:51:43 +0000 UTC]

The tile is just for minimal reference (shadows/colors etc). Your piece can be almost any size as long as it is worth looking at

anton's spaceport is quite large. check it out

Please submit the project without the tile and transparent background.

I like it a lot.
Hmm... One suggestion, though: Try making the outlines on the buildings brighter. Right now it kinda looks like the buildings are glued onto the background.

Thanx for liking it I dont know how I can make the outlines brighter though, they are black, if I lightened them itd look weak and wouldnt stand out as well
